| Mavie {Matt/Evi} App.#6:"She's so beautiful it's hard to concentrate around her"~Matt ![]() Every true television fan knows it starts and ends with one thing - chemistry. And boy, do those two have it! Both on and off the screen. And until proven wrong, we here truly believe that Evi has a crush on Matt she's also totally in love with his kids And obviouslly, like Bennifer, Brangeline etc., those two have got a nickname as well - Mavie . Our credo! Reasons Why: 1. the way she looks at him is undeniable 2. he makes her laugh 3. whenever she's around him - she grins 4. the CHEMISTRY 5. he thinks she's "smokin'!" 6. she thinks he's "matured beautifully" 7. 'cause the finally kissed and it was just like we thought it'll be!!! 8. Evie plays with her hair around Matt (classic sign of flirting) 9. Evie is ALWAYS (and i mean always) next to Matt, no matter what/where 10. Evie totally and completely ignores her b/f Dom while next to/around Matt 11. All she talks about is Matt 12. Never loses the oportunity to joke with/touch him 13. She looks like a fangirl. Mavie Shippers: 1. ::mavie:: a.k.a Shiran 2. *aLESSANDRA* a.k.a Laura 3. *Becks* 4. Liz01 ~ 5. Prancer a.k.a Tia 6.

He's absolutely one of my teachers and mentors on set… I think that's one of the reasons why Matthew and I have such natural chemistry onscreen, is that I am genuinely very taken by him when he's acting.

| Elite Fan ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Wow, it just took me 45 minutes to open my fanfic file. My Word got messed up. Anyway, here's the fanfic all over again plus some additional chapters! Nothing's Perfect Story soundtrack: 1. Evan and Jaron – Crazy for this Girl 2. Vertical Horizon – Everything You Want 3. Tori Amos – A Sorta Fairtytale 4. Live – The Dolphins Cry 5. Sugababes – Too Lost In You 6. Coldplay – Fix You 7. Natasha Bedingfield – Wild Horses 8. Liz Phair – Why Can't I? 9. Britney Spears – And then We Kiss 10. Matthew Sweet – Evangeline 11. Travis – Re-Offender 12. Sia – Breathe Me [/i] Monday, January 2nd, 2006: Evangeline's POV: "Get him out of there, get him out of there…" Damon mumbled to himself repeatedly. Hey Evi…?" he asks me as I pass by him. "Hmm?" I ask dazzled, still tired from the New Year's Eve and day. "Do me a favor, will you? Get Matthew out of his trailer. Your scene is up next and we can't really shoot Kate and Jack where there's no Jack…" he rambles. "OK, Damon, I'll get him out. Why is he here?" I ask confused. "Margherita served the papers this morning." He replies quietly. "What a way to start the year…" I frown and leave towards Matthew's trailer. ~*~*~*~ Matthew's POV: OK, I get it, we're separate. We've been separate for almost 5 months now. It's over. But as much as I expected her to serve the divorce papers, I didn't expect her to do this via her lawyer. We didn’t break it off nastily. We broke it off on friendly terms, seeing as we have Kyle and Byron to look after. Moreover, there's the whole 'I didn’t do anything wrong for this to end nastily'. I throw a soft ball Byron left here awhile back against the wall repeatedly. The knock on my trailer door doesn’t stop me from my actions. "Yeah?" I answer distracted. "So, I hear you said I'm a lousy kisser and you refuse to shoot with me again." I hear Evi's voice as she enters. I turn my head to her to see her smiling softly at me. I return an almost unnoticeable smile. "Yeah, something like that." I say and continue throwing the ball against the wall. "I've missed you." She says softly, referring to the mini-break we took from shooting in order to celebrate the holidays. Huh, celebrate. "I've missed you, too." I answer not facing her, "how's Dom?" "He's Dom." She answers with a smile in her voice. "That's good." I mumble. "Mattie…" she says edging my shoulder, "come on, get up." "I'm almost 40 years old, I think I've earned the right to not being called Mattie." I give her a crooked look. "I like that name." she answers shrugging and I chuckle, for the first time, "uh-huh!" she calls victoriously. "Evi, you're really weird, you know that?" I ask rising from my bed. "Yes." She answers grinning proudly. "Let's go…" I just say, following her outside the trailer. She was the one to hold me The night The sky fell down And what was I thinking when The world didn’t end Why didn’t I know what I know now … And I don’t know why But she’s changed my mind Evan and Jaron / Crazy for this Girl ~*~*~*~ Evangeline's POV: "How is he?" Dominic asks me when he notices me staring at Matthew, who is sitting isolated when we all sit for lunch. "Bad." I reply simply, not tearing my gaze away from him. "Poor guy. It's gotta be rough. 14 years… 2 kids… that's why I could never marry." "Sorry?" I ask suddenly turning all of my attention to him. "Oh, yeah. Marriage. It's like the worst institute ever. People don’t need a document to prove they're in love." He answers shaking his head. "That's rubbish." I mutter through clenched teeth, "When you're in love and you know this is forever, you want everyone to know. You want to make it official." "And what, you think a priest makes it official? Blymie Evi, it's just a sodding piece of paper." He says bewildered. "It's the piece of paper, Dominic." I reply annoyed. He just waves his hands in submission and throws his fork at his plate. Somewhere there's speaking It's already coming in Oh, and it's rising at the back of your mind You never could get it Unless you were fed it Now you're here and you don't know why … He's everything you want He's everything you need He's everything inside of you That you wish you could be He says all the right things At exactly the right time Vertical Horizon / Everything You want I don’t know if he's the person I want to marry anyway. But just knowing I won't be able to pisses me off. It's like, what kind of a future do we hold if all we'll do is continue dating for the rest of our lives? See, the real problem is, I always had a thing for Matthew. Well, not always-always per say, but ever since we met. He was so… mature, and confident and dashing… and he's the most unbelievable guy I've ever met. So caring and compassionate… a family man with an amazing attitude. But knowing nothing won't ever happen, kept me safe. I knew he was happily married and I knew he was most unlikely to pull a Brad Pitt on Margarita… he absolutely worshiped her. Which is why I think she made a terrible mistake by asking to get a divorce. We hardly ever talked about it. When they first split, he didn’t talk to anyone for about a week. Then he talked to Jorge and Harold a lot. Then he talked to me. He told me Margarita got fed up with the late hours and started suspecting too much and getting very jealous… none of it ever made sense. Matthew is the most reliable person on earth. And who would he cheat with!? Emilie is engaged, Maggie is just way too young for him, he told me once Michelle is really not his type, I'm with Dominic… and as much as he cares for Yunjin, they just never connected that way. So to break up an entire family for some unauthorized suspicious was plain dumb the way I see it. "Hey!" Dominic snaps his finger in front of my face. "What is it?" I ask slightly annoyed. "You stepped into a bloody trance. Come on, break's over." He says lifting me up from my seat. ~*~*~*~ Wednesday, January 11th, 2006: Matthew's POV: "I tell you man, this is exactly what you need to get your mind off the di…" Jorge quickly trails off as I glare at him, "dehydration of the earth!" "Right." I snort at him knocking on the door. "Seriously, some beer, pizza… and the best goddamn show on TV." Josh says grinning. "I'll drink for that." Daniel adds as Evangeline opens the door. She opens the door grinning, and scans us all before resting her gaze at me. "Hey Evi, what's up?" Jorge asks punching her shoulder lightly. "I'm good," she answers distracted still looking at me, and I never break eye contact, "how are you all?" "Well, cold if we'll keep standing here any longer…" Josh mutters jokingly and Evi suddenly acknowledges them all. "Sorry, come in." she answers opening the door wider. We enter her apartment and settle on the couches. "Oh man, Evi, you sure know how to entertain." Jorge comments sitting next to Michelle and digging his hand in the bowl of Doritos in front of him. Evangeline chuckles in respond and squeezes my hand softly. "You ok?" she asks quietly, her voice sounds muffled between all the voices around. "I'm fine." I reply trying to smile as honestly as I can. "So how come we're here?" Emilie asks, "it's supposed to be Dom's episode." "Dom's sick." Evangeline replies moving away from me and taking a seat next to Josh, "so he asked me to tell you all he's sorry he couldn’t host and that he hopes you could all take notice on how to act properly while watching his episode tonight." We all chuckle and roll our eyes in respond. "Classic Dom." Naveen comments and we nod. "Alright, let's settle kiddies." Terry says before taking a seat and we all quickly follow. ~*~*~*~ Evangeline's POV: As soon as the show ends and we're all done catching up with each other [which really, isn’t a hard task seeing as we see each other everyday for at least 12 hours], everybody rise from their seats and head towards the door. "Evi, do you need us to help you clean up?" Yunjin asks me. "No thanks," I shake my heads smiling, "it's nothing a big garbage bag won't fix." "Good. And Yunjin, please, if you want to offer help – first person, really!" Jorge says jokingly and she hits him playfully. "And how about you?" I ask Matthew approaching to him, "You haven't said a word the entire night." "Now that's not true," he says rubbing my arm, "I said 'I'm fine' when you asked me how I was." "Don’t tease." I answer smiling warningly. "Alright, I won't. But I will help you clean up." He insists. "Sure." I answer shrugging. "See you tomorrow!" Terry says existing with Harold and Daniel. "Matt, aren't you coming?" Naveen asks Matthew. "No, I'm gonna help her clean up. Walk the girls, ok?" he asks and Naveen nods waving us before closing the door after him. We look at each other awkwardly and smile. But… why is this awkward, really? I mean, I know why I'm feeling embarrassed… this guy I've been crushing on for almost 2 years is suddenly very unattached and very excess-able… but I'm not supposed to be. Plus, I don’t even think he thinks about me this way and oh boy, I just started thinking about this which means no good would come out of this. If I'm thinking that it means, the feelings are still very strong and real. I've never been a strong person emotionally, so the last thing I need right now is to cave to this. All of a sudden, I see Matthew smirking, which stops my train of thoughts, and I look at him immediately. "What?" I ask bewildered. "You're so weird, Evi. I was talking to you and you were just staring into space…" he says between laughs, "thank God you stopped driving." "Heyyyyy cheap shot!" I complain whacking his hand. "I'm sorry," he says grabbing my shoulders, "but I can't help it." "Anyway, you were saying?" I ask smiling and he suddenly turns very serious. "You're amazing. You've been so amazing to me for the past 5 months… so supportive and caring. You know I adore you for that, right?" he asks not breaking eye contact with me. "I do." I smile bashfully and hold his face in my hands, "I just want you to be happy again, Matt. I want to see the vivaciousness coming back to you. No one deserves this more than you." And now he's suddenly holding my face. And oh my God, I'm getting weak. I know I'm about to cave in and there isn't an amount of thoughts about Dominic to keep me away from falling. His head draws closer to my face so naturally, as if he just knows this moment was supposed to happen ages ago. I've always wondered what it'd be like to kiss him. And then I kissed him. And I was tense about it for weeks, didn’t sleep the night before, trembled right up to the point when they yelled 'action'… and it wasn't even real. But now… "Don’t do this." I whisper before his lips touch mine, "you're hurting right now, you'll regret this later." OK. What?! He pulls away slightly, still holding my face. He opens his mouth to say something and just then, there's a quick knock on the door. We move away from each other just before the person opens it. "I swear to God, if my head wasn't attached to my body…" Michelle mutters grabbing her car keys, "bye!" And the door is closed again. And we're all alone again. No interruptions. And this time I open my mouth to speak, but he cuts me off. "I know. I know there are million reasons why not to, the main one being that you're dating a good friend of mine, I just… I just really want to." He finishes softly looking deeply into my eyes. And I just melt. I always melt because of him. He could tell me I'm the worst actress ever and that he hates being around me, but if he'll give me that look… I'd melt. things you said that day up on the 101 the girl had come undone I tried to downplay it with a bet about us you said that- you'd take it as long as I could I could not erase it and I'm so sad like a good book I can't put this day back a sorta fairytale with you a sorta fairytale with you Tori Amos / A Sorta Fairytale I sigh and throw my hands to the sides at exasperation. Which I guess for him means I caved. He leans in carefully, searching my eyes before pressing his lips softly against mine. His hands move up to cup my face, his fingertips gently drawing across my cheeks. After what seems to be awhile, my hands move up to his chest and then shoulders, clinging into his shirt. We break away finally, in need for air and I just look at him. His eyes soft, his mouth moist, and he's trying to catch his breath. And I just know, that looking at me – he sees the exact same thing. "Go." I whisper after a few seconds and he just looks at me confused, "go home. You'd want to forget this ever happened in the morning… so just go." He takes his hands off my face and looks at me pained. Then without saying a word, he just leaves. ~*~*~*~ Friday, January 13th, 2006: Matthew's POV: Granted, I screw up. Completely. Colossally. Immensely. Gigantically. I mean, this is one of my best friends, who's dating one of my best friends… she's there for me, she cares about me – and how do I repay her? I kiss her, and mess with her mind. Classic. Luckily, we weren't shooting any combined scenes since the kiss, so she didn’t have to face talking to me. I know that if I were in her position, I would have never wanted to see her. OK, that's a lie. It's Evangeline… I'd always want to see her. But I'd be confused, no doubt. Me and Michelle are shooting a scene and from the corner of my eye, I can see her standing behind the cameras with Josh and Dominic. She notices me looking at her and lowers her sight quickly, biting her lip. Great job, Matthew. "Matthew," J.J. calls disrupting my train of thought, "at least pretend you're into the scene. You're making my job a lot more complicated today." "Sorry J.J." I mumble looking down. "It's a wrap as it is. Maybe we'll try to re-shoot those after lunch. Alright, Evi?" he turns to her, "I need you and Matt for a second." No. No, no, no, no, no. No. He couldn't possibly know anything… could he? I mean, she couldn't possibly have told him I kissed her and it was way awkward and now she can't shoot any romantic scenes with me…ok, wait. According to the look on her face, she has no idea what's this about either. And she's just as freaked as me about close proximity. Alone. "Come on." J.J. says grabbing my arm and pulling me and Evangeline to his trailer. How ironic, this is just like it happened on the show. Except instead of Jack and Kate, it's Matt and Evi. "OK, your publicists talked to me. You guys are leaving tomorrow for interviews in New York. You'll catch the Red Eye together, you've got two seats in first class, Evi you're coming back on Thursday, Matt you're coming back on Tuesday. Your reps will join you on Sunday at around noon. Because of the shooting schedule, you two are at different sides of the city, so you stay at different hotels, too. You'll be flown to the Golden Globe awards at Monday, Matt as I've said before, you're coming back to Hawaii on Tuesday morning." He explains. "Whoa, whoa, hold on… Red Eye, Monday at L.A., Tuesday at Hawaii…" I say getting everything to sink in. "Yep." J.J. nods. "I get flown on Tuesday back to New York?" Evangeline asks and he nods again. I exchange a quick look with her. She's worried, I can tell. She has to put up with me for an entire flight. "Alright, scram. It's your break time and I don’t want you guys saying I abuse you afterwards." He says laughing. We chuckle bitterly at him and then rise and leave his trailer. "Hey," I grab Evangeline's arm as we close the door after us, "whatever it takes – tell me. Just don’t hate me." "I don’t hate you, Matt." She smiles tiredly. "You're allowed to, you know." I smile back at her, relieved. "Uh, thanks for conforming it to me." She chuckles, "but I don’t hate you. And I never will." "I'm sorry." I blurt out. "You are?" she asks slightly disappointed. Disappointment? Seriously?! "No, I'm not." I confess and she smiles softly, "I am sorry about the situation I'm putting you in, though." She smiles bashfully and leans in closer to my ear. "I did kiss you back." She reminds me at a low tone. "And you know what?" I ask pulling away just to look directly in her eyes, "I would never forget it. And I'd definitely do it again." She takes in a sharp breath and immediately lowers her sight. That affected her. I shouldn't have said that… God, the last thing she needs to think right now is that I'm completely hung up on her. I might be… but she doesn’t want to know that. She finally looks up at me and then smiles softly. God, I love that smile. OK, not something I should start thinking about probably… "Let's go, Matt." She says, releasing her hand from my grip. I sigh and follow her. Oh, the mess I got us into. ~*~*~*~ Saturday, January 14th, 2006: Evangeline's POV: You know, it's weird. I've never hated flying. Never was afraid of taking off or landing. I was a flight attendant, so fear of flying was definitely out of the question. But then when LOST came up… well, I think we were all weary of flying afterwards. And now I have the Red Eye. With Matt. Things could not get anymore awkward. The thing is, we don’t even have publicists or assistants as buffer. They arrive tomorrow. And until then, it's a 4 hours flight, sitting very close to a man I… to a man I… let's just keep it at that. I'm too afraid to finish this sentence right now, 'cause any word that would come up to mind would screw me over. I admire him. More than I want to. And that gets me into trouble. Sure, he seems to be very in to… well, me, lately, but… worst timing ever. Then again, in the matters of the heart… ugh, man. "You ok?" he whispers softly at me. I just look at him and nod smiling. He smiles back uneasily. The plane is dim and most of the people around us are sound asleep. God, will this ever get easier? I miss him. I miss talking to him, I miss laughing with him, I miss teasing each other… and so help me God, I miss his touch, and his embrace, and… his kiss. Oh no, I miss his kiss. I shift my hand slowly to his knee, placing it nearly trembling. Even through the gloomy plane, I can see his surprised look. I offer a half smile at him, not taking my hand off him. His hand slowly moves to mine, and he places it on top of the back of my hand. I turn my palm to his and lace our fingers together, sinking back into the seat and sighing. And so it begins. You look into my eyes I go out of my mind I can't see anything 'Cause this love's got me blind I can't help myself I can't break the spell I can't even try I'm in over my head You got under skin I got no strength at all In the state that I'm in And my knees are weak And my mouth can't speak Fell too far this time Baby, I'm too lost in you Caught in you Lost in everything about you So deep, I can't sleep I can't think I just think about the things that you do I'm too lost in you Sugababes / Too Lost in You ~*~*~*~ Thursday, January 19th, 2006: Matthew's POV: I lost. Well, that's only partially true, because LOST won. Naveen lost also. Which he really did not deserve, especially after those scenes when Maggie died. Funny thing, Evangeline was presenting. Luck had it that she presented Best Actor. I think she was disappointed when she saw the envelope and it wasn’t my name. Which was so sweet of her. I didn’t get to see her since our flight, which sucked. When we landed we said our goodbyes and talked about meeting in the ceremony. I took a quick glimpse of her on when we walked upstage to get the award and then at the backstage when we were doing press. That's it. Sucks. After our little talk about the kiss, I assumed we were getting back to being nothing but friends. Gradually, but eventually getting there. But then what happened at the plane, made me rethink it. Maybe this won't just past. Maybe this won't be a glimpse at the radar. Maybe this will have a major affect. The way you're bathed in light reminds me of that night god laid me down into your rose garden of trust and I was swept away with nothin' left to say some helpless fool yeah I was lost in a swoon of peace you're all I need to find so when the time is right come to me sweetly, come to me … oh yeah, we meet again it's like we never left time in between was just a dream did we leave this place? Live / The Dolphins Cry And after all of this, there she is. I open the door, and there she is. I see her luggage, and I see her scattered hair falling across her face, and I see the look in her eyes… and I know she just landed. And there she is. I open the door wider, allowing her to enter, and take the luggage from her hand, placing it on the floor. I just look at her for the longest time, acknowledging she's really here, trying to figure out what to say. But I can't. After so long, I find myself speechless in front of her breathtaking beauty. "I hate you," she starts softly and my face quickly falls, but she continues without letting me respond, "for ruining my life." And then, after saying this, she does the unexpected. All of a sudden she's all over me, kissing my passionately, grabbing my face in her hands. I moan softly to her lips, putting one arm around her waist and combing the other one through her hair. She sends out her tongue almost unnoticeably in search for mine and caresses it so softly. I allow myself to sink against her, to soak in the feeling of being so close to her and then I slowly pull away. "I'm ruining your life?" I ask seriously. "I'm so letting you." She answers shaking her head. I lower my head and sigh and she wraps her arms around my neck, hugging me tightly. "I missed you, Matt." She whispers and I smile lazily, "I missed you and it's only been 3 days. I used to not see you for months and I was ok." "If it's any consolation, you're all I thought about in those last 3 days." I respond genuinely. "I hated presenting that award and not being able to shout your name out loud." She says stroking the back of my hair. "Why, did you mess around with the envelopes?" I ask jokingly. "I don’t want to pull away just yet." She says in a gentle almost childlike tone, burying her face in my shoulder. "I don’t want you to pull away." I reply sighing against her hair. And so it begins. ~*~*~*~ Wednesday, January 25th, 2006: Evangeline's POV: "Ugh, could you just please explain to me the fascination to pineapple pizza?" Emilie asks disgusted as we sit in Dominic's living room. "It's different!" Dominic announces grabbing another slice in one hand and bringing me closer to him with the other hand. I send a worried look across the room to Matthew, who's sitting in front of me next to Harold. He lowers his sight quickly and clears his throat uncomfortably. "Break's over." He comments and we all turn our attention to the TV. "See, that I don’t get." I start pointing at the TV, "I mean, no offense to you Michelle, I think you're awesome, but the character they chose for you is so… useless. I agree, there needs to be versatility, but what's the point in a character that all she does is boss people around, shout at them and be mean to them for no reason? They're all survivors, they need to stick together…" "OK, that's enough. We're trying to watch the show here!" Jorge says jokingly and I slap his arm lightly. "You know what the point is?" Matthew suddenly speaks up and I look at him surprised, "the point is that there will be another strong female character. Another co-leader. Another opinionative person. The point is, Evangeline, is that for once – it won't be all about you." The room turns silent, and pretty much everyone turns to look at him. Even Michelle, whom he just defended, looks shocked. "Tell me something Matthew," I start calmly, "do you even try to act like a complete ******* or it comes out naturally?" He just stares at me coldly in respond. "Aww, come on, Evi… he didn’t…" Dominic starts but I cut him off. "He really did. I'm gonna go get a blanket, I'm cold." I say leaving for Dominic's bedroom. "Way out of line, man." I hear Josh commenting. ~*~*~*~ Matthew's POV: I'm a jerk. The one good thing I had, and that's what I do. But the truth is, I never really had Evangeline. She's someone else's, she's taken. She's not mine to have. And that's what pushed me to act like the complete ass I was. I'm falling for her, I know I am. Nothing can stop it. So I acted out of pure frustration. The frustration that no matter how much I'm gonna love her – I don’t have her. And maybe never will. I look up at the clock as I hear a knock on the door. 23:41. It can only be her, but will it be her after those things I said? I open the door. Apparently it can be her. She stands there enraged, her eyes blazing at me. "I, uh…" I start stuttering and she interrupts me by brushing me off entering the apartment. "What the hell was that?" she asks furiously. I have never seen her like this, ever. And the thought that I made her feel this way really pisses me off. "I, uh… I'm…" I start stuttering one more time and she once again cuts me off. "No! Seriously, what the hell were you thinking saying those things? That was really hurtful, and coming from you… well, you can just imagine how much more hurtful it is." She spits out heatedly. "I'm sorry." I blurt quickly before she starts yelling at me again. "No, you're not." She whispers shaking her head and turning away from me. "Yes, I am." I say grabbing her arm and turning her to face me, "I really am. You can choose to believe it and you can choose to blow me off, but the truth is I was frustrated. And whatever it was I said… I didn’t mean it. It was pure frustration." "Did it ever occur to you that this situation frustrates me too?" she asks. "Of course it has!" I throw my hands to the air at exasperation, "the difference between us is that you can actually do a goddamn thing about it!" There's a short silence in which she just stars at me, even angrier than she was when she came here. "What?" she whispers trying to hold back the anger. "Forget it." I answer tiredly and walk towards my bedroom. "No, I will not forget it!" she yells following me, "I just love how you feel like you're the only one getting hurt here! You think everything is so simple. You're a great kisser – bam! – Evi needs to break off with her boyfriend and be with you." "Stop being so hypocrite for Christ's sake!" I cry facing her, "you knew damn well what you were getting yourself into. You had a chance to back off, you could've said no, you could've just forgotten about it – and you chose not to. Do something." "Screw you." She mutters silently and I notice the tears that welled up in her eyes. "Oh, that's rich." I answer rolling my eyes. "Screw you!" she repeats louder, "there was no way in hell I could've backed off and you know it. You put me in the most vulnerable position ever and expect me to pretend nothing happened?" "All I'm saying is that if you didn’t want anything to happen – nothing would have." I reply evenly. "Bull****." She replies at the same tone as mine. "Great, I see the mature part of the conversation is back…" I answer cynically. "Ugh, I don’t even know why I bother. You just don’t get it." She answers despaired and turns to leave. "You're right. You're right, how could I possibly get it? I'm only in love with you!" I call after her. And the tears come streaming down your face When you lose something you can't replace And you love someone but it goes to waste Could it be worse? ... And high up above or down below When you're too in love to let it go But if you never try you'll never know Just what you're worth Coldplay / Fix You Uh oh. Too soon. Way out of line. Sooooo not the time. She stops cold and turns to me slowly. I can tell she's keeping her jaw from physically dropping. She starts to draw closer to me hesitantly, never breaking eye contact. She swallows hard before speaking and wipes a tear that escaped her eye. "What did you say?" she whispers slowly searching for my eyes. Right. Like I could say that again. "I, uh…" I stutter looking away. "Matt…" she whispers softly before grabbing my face in her hands and kissing me passionately. So not following the plan here. After this entire "conversation", this was probably the last thing I expected her to do. Granted, saying what I said wasn’t that expected either. Take me Touch me Won't you hold me close? And then we kiss Your love comes alive on my lips I feel a rush Coming over me, over me And when we touch This moment when everything's still I close my eyes And then we kiss The feel of your hand As it touches my hair It makes me tremble Don't wanna let go Of the feelings we share So baby, go slow Our hearts beating fast And my body cries I want it to last It's burning inside We're getting deeper Britney Spears / And then We Kiss I move my hands to the small of her back, groaning softly against her lips as she presses her body closer to mine. She brings her hands to the back of my neck, stroking my hair as she darts out her tongue into my mouth. I bring my hands up to cup her face, steadying the both of us. She lowers her hands down to my chest and edges me gently towards the bed. I know the wisest thing to do right now is to pull away and make sure she's aware of what she's doing. But this sensation is just much too strong for me to pull away from. Which scares the hell out of me. ~*~*~*~ Thursday, January 26th, 2006: Evangeline's POV: What's the first thought that's supposed to come up? First, there's Matthew. Saying he's in love with me. I'm not gonna say 'if this had come at a different time…'. It's still perfect. It's still unbelievable. And it's still mutual. I'd love for you to make me wonder Where it's goin' I'd love for you to pull me under Somethin's growin' for this that we can control Baby I am dyin' Why can't I breathe whenever I think about you Why can't I speak whenever I talk about you Liz Phair / Why Can't I? Then, there's me cheating on Dominic. For real this time. This isn't a kiss he initiated anymore. Hell, this isn't even a kiss I initiated. This time… it was just everything. Lastly, and more importantly, is the incredible feeling I have, lying wrapped up in Matthew's arms. My back pressed against his bare chest and his arms are wrapped securely against my middle, his face buried at the back of my neck. Perfection. Last night, when he told me he was in love with me, I couldn’t take it anymore. I had to kiss him, I had to make that frustrated look on our faces go away. And while I was kissing him, I kept thinking: this is heaven. If only it hadn't been so hard. And what led to it… I had never known I could fight so passionately with anyone as I had last night with Matthew. Which goes to show how strong the feelings really are, and just how much of a mess I got myself into. I turn slowly, trying my best not to wake him up and bury my face in his chest, inhaling his scent. I place one hand across his upper body and kiss it softly. "Mhmm…" he mumbles sleepily, tightening his grip around my waist and kissing my hair. "Sorry, I didn’t mean to wake you." I look up at him smiling. "Right…" he says slowly and chuckles before examining me strangely, "what are you wearing?" "Your shirt was on the floor, I grabbed it." I shrug in respond, "I have to go." "Stay." He replies immediately. "I can't… I was supposed to meet up with Dominic last night, and…" I trail off as I see his face. Already this is devastating. "OK, go." He nods looking uncomfortable, "I'm gonna go brush my teeth." He pulls away from me and I feel like there's a void around me, like the room just got cold. "Hey tell me something," I say looking at him and he turns to me, "when did you put your boxers back on?" He grins in respond. "Right about the time you put your underwear back on. Guess we're both self conscious." He answers shrugging. "Oh yeah, I know how you hate to expose yourself…" I say cynically getting out of bed and following him to the bathroom. "Two different situations." He answers eyeing me jokingly as he brushes his teeth. I stand behind him, watching him fascinated. I plant a soft kiss on his back just when he finishes. He turns to me smiling softly and hands me a green toothbrush. "Yours." He states. "You bought me a toothbrush?" I ask dazzled. "Noooo, I bought a guest toothbrush. Stop thinking so highly about yourself." He responds pressing his forehead against mine teasingly. "This guest is keeping this T, by the way." I laugh motioning at his shirt, which I borrowed. "Looks better on you anyway." He shrugs in respond. I smile softly to myself as I brush my teeth. He wraps his arms around my middle and kisses my temple softly. I look at him through the mirror smiling at him and he moves his lips down my face to my neck. I put my hand on his, grabbing it to steady myself. That's how much affect he has on me. When I'm done rinsing my mouth I turn to him smiling and hand him the toothbrush. "Here, might wanna dispose that." I say. "Keep it," he shrugs, "it's yours anyway." "I knew you bought it for me!" I gasp grinning. "Of course I did, it's green isn't it?" he asks smiling. I smile widely back at him and he reaches up to wipe a paste from the corner my mouth. He pulls away and we both look at each other intensely. Instinctively, we both lean in and kiss hungrily. He pins me against the sink, his hands roaming over my chest and stomach. I wrap an arm around his shoulders pulling him as close as possible to me, our chests colliding against one another. One thing leads to another, and well… let's just say he should really carpet his bathroom floor. ~*~*~*~ Tuesday, February 7th, 2006: Matthew's POV: On set, shooting a scene with Terry. It's been nearly two weeks since she dropped by my house and we did what we did. I've been aching even more with each passing day, missing her like mad. If I wouldn't have said out loud that I'm in love with her, it'd have taken some time to grasp it. I wouldn’t be needing her so much. Sure, I knew I was in love with her since the second it started. But it wasn't this intense. Now the problem is, one of these relationships has to end. Her and me, or her and Dominic. I'd hate to bring the end for one of my best friend's relationship, but I wouldn't rather for it to be me. "And it's a wrap!" Damon calls at us, "that's lunch, be back in an hour everyone!" I turn around and find myself in front of Evangeline, her sister andrea and Dominic. "And this…" Evangeline starts smiling at her, "is Matthew Fox." "Hey." I say smiling at her. "Oh my God." She whispers excitedly and shakes my hand shakily. "This is Andréa," Evangeline says laughing, "She's 14." "No I'm not!" Andréa protests. "I'm sorry, I guess you only act like you're 14…" she rolls her eyes at her and I laugh. "That's quite alright. It's nice to meet you, Andréa." I smile warmly at her. "You… like… too… oh my God, Matthew Fox just said my name." she stutters blushing furiously. I chuckle and feel myself beginning to blush also. "Yeah, so the cafeteria is that way Andréa, they serve water. You might wanna visit there. Although they don’t provide valium at the scene, so..." Dominic says jokingly and both Evangeline and Andréa smack him. "Right, and seeing as it's my first visit here I'd sooooo know where the cafeteria is." She smiles sweetly at him. "I'll take you." He suggests. He kisses Evangeline and I look away uncomfortably. "Come on, Dom," she says pulling away, "not in front of everyone." "What everyone?" he asks laughing, "it's just Matt!" "Right, just Matt…" I smirk bitterly. "Knock it off, Matthew." Evangeline says warningly. "Come on Andréa, let's go. I'll see you in a bit?" he asks Evangeline and she nods biting her lip. "it was very nice to meet you." I say to Andréa smiling. "Yeah, you… nice… very… also…" she stutters again and then laughs uncomfortably. They leave and Evangeline and I remain in our spots, just looking at each other uncomfortably. "Just like her sister…" she shrugs smiling and leaves. ~*~*~*~ Evangeline's POV: "Swear." I ask. "I swear!" she promises. "Swear properly!" I demand. "I, Andréa Lilly, swear to God and all that is mighty I won't ever tell a soul the secret you're about to tell me." She rolls her eyes crossing. "OK. Here goes… but Andréa…" I start and she cuts me off. "I won't tell!" she promises annoyed. "I slept with Matthew." I blurt out. "You did what?" she shouts spitting out her drink. "Once more with feeling, drama queen!" I roll my eyes at her. "Oh my God! Oh my God! You had sex with Charlie Salinger!" she shouts. "I had sex with Matthew." I correct her. "Charlie is Matthew! Oh my God… I'm speechless… I'm literally… out of words!" she gasps. "And yet you're still talking…" I reply. "Ugh, finally dear sister you realize your status as a goddamn sex goddess and sleep with people who are worthy!" she babbles. "Why don’t you tell me how you really feel about Dominic…" I frown. "Don’t get me wrong, Evi. Dom is amazing. For a not so hot chick. You need someone in your level. Enters Matthew." She smiles contently. "I'm not breaking up with Dominic." I shake my head. "Why the hell not?" she asks shocked. "Because I'm in love with him?" I ask amazed. "Oh I'm sorry, I forgot! When you truly love someone, sleep with his friend to show him how you care." She rolls her eyes. "That is by far the dumbest thing you've ever said." I say hurt. "Then it's by far the dumbest thing you've ever done." She replies and I lower my head, "either break it off, or ditch Dominic." "I can't do that." I whisper shaking my head vigorously. "Which one?" she asks. "Neither." I confess. ~*~*~*~ Tuesday, February 28th, 2006: Matthew's POV: 3 weeks had passed, and nothing happened. Nothing. Well, the occasional kiss here and there, but we didn’t get to have some alone time for awhile. And just like that, it becomes more intense, and it's starting to bother me more. Being around her without being able to kiss her. One of these relationships has to end. And since she seems to have no intention on ending neither, maybe I should. She obviously isn't choosing me, so I guess this one was meant to end. This hurts me more than anything, but at the same time I don’t want to hurt her. I reach her front door, and take a deep breath. Before I get the chance to knock, the door flies open and I stand confused in front of a laughing Evangeline and Dominic. My face fall slightly, not enough for them to notice, and I can feel my stomach turning. This is the worst feeling ever, but at least it's about to end soon. "Oh, hi mate." Dominic smiles at me and I force out a smile. "What are you doing here so late?" "Just… needed to talk to Evi." I say and she looks at me seriously. "Oh, hey, let me ask you something. How come your T shirt is in her closet?" he asks pointing at Evangeline. I can feel the blood running out of my face and I quickly glance at Evangeline to see her reaction. "Oh, well awhile back when I was hosting, Matt spilled something on his shirt so I lent him one of yours and washed it. I guess he just forgot." She smiles shrugging. She amazes me. Such poise and confidence. "Oh, alright then." He shrugs in reply, "I'll see you tomorrow, right?" She nods and he leans in to kiss her. She glances at me quickly before kissing him rashly and pulling away. "You really are weird." He says shaking his head. He flashes me a smile and taps my shoulder before leaving. "Come in." She says warmly. I sigh heavily and follow her to the apartment. "Drink?" she asks entering her kitchen. "Uh, no, no…" I say nervously. "You ok?" she asks turning to me, "you sound weird." "I… no, I'm fine." I say lowering my head. "Good." She beams, "I missed you." I raise my head to face her, just as she leans in and kisses me. I cup her face, pressing my forehead against her as we continue to kiss and I feel her hugging my middle tightly. I pull away slightly, our foreheads still touching and I sigh softly against her cheek. "What?" she asks despaired, placing her hands on my chest, "what's wrong?" "I just… I think…" I trail off annoyed, "it's over." That's it. It's out. That kiss we just had was potentially our last kiss. Unless she's ready to fight for me… it's all done. Her eyes darken and she looks at me shocked, taking her hands off me and backing off. "You…" she trails off whispering, "why?" "Because I can't handle it anymore. I can't handle not being with you all the time, I can't handle not being able to express how I feel for you… and most of all, I can't handle knowing the feelings aren't mutual." I explain. "That's bull****." She mutters, "Do you think I'd risk everything if I wasn't feeling something for you?" "I know you do, you just don’t… not the way…" I stutter and sigh, "just say something. Tell me it affects you. That you care about this… tell me that you love me." For a second she looks taken aback. This is a test for her. She's being cornered into expressing emotions when she's mentally attached. "I can't." She says in a broken voice, "You know how I feel, I just… can't." "Then I guess this time it's not good enough." I say dejectedly. "Matthew, don’t… don’t do this." She whispers looking away as I notice her eyes glisten. "Look," I clear my throat as my voice breaks, "it's better we end this now. You obviously don’t plan on fighting for… let's just call it quits." "This isn’t easy, you know!" she calls all of a sudden, "and it's not getting any easier with each passing day." "Just imagine how it's 10 times harder on me." I mutter. "Then maybe it wasn’t meant to be over. Huh, Matthew? Maybe not this way." She asks. "Oh, then how was it meant to be over? Marriage, 2 kids, the perfect house?" I scoff cynically, "been there, done that. Not so perfect." "I didn’t say…" she shakes her head weakly and sighs, "I just don’t want for this to be over." "Me neither." I answer honestly. She looks up at me, tears thretaning to burst from her eyes, and mine, too. "This is stupid." I state shaking my head, "I came here to end this and I wind up leaving even more in love with you than I was." "Stay." She pleads sniffing. "Don’t ask that. it's not fair." I say and wipe her cheeks. She clings onto me and buries her head in my chest, sobbing freely. I wrap my arms around her body and sigh to her hair, hating myself for getting her so upset. She grabs the hems of my shirt and lifts her head to the crook of my neck. "If I ask again, will you stay?" she asks tearfully. I cup her face and kiss her cheek, lingering my mouth on it. "Probably. So don’t." I whisper to her cheek. "Then go, Matthew." She says and pulls away, turning away from me, "Just go." My body feels cold without her in my arms. Great. We've been together for like 5 full days overall, and already I'm helpless without her. "Evangeline…" I start reaching out to her and she brushes me off. "Don’t, Matthew. You ended it, no point in doing that now." She says, suddenly very detached. "I'm sorry." I mumble lowering my head before leaving. As soon as I close the door behind me, I allow the tears to drop, for the first time since it started. And it won't stop falling. ~*~*~*~ | |||
