Clearing the air {Matty}

[fallon arien rodriguez]

Fallon couldn't believe she had told Owen she had a crush on him. And she had told Matty that she cared for him, as more then a friend. It's not that it wasn't the truth, but she was with Dom, she wasn't one of those girls. She didn't cheat, she knew that that might be hard for some people to understand seeing as how Dom was, technically still, married. But just because he was married doesn't mean that she was with anybody, or would ever do that to anybody.

With a sigh she closed her laptop and placed it on the floor beside her bed. She rolled back over and curled herself into a ball and placed her head on Matty's lap. She had told him he didn't have to go to sleep now and she knew that he would listen to her. He almost always did. That's why they were best friends. When she told him that she had ruined him, she had kind of meant it. She knew that she wasn't like many girls, most guys that she was friends with couldn't believe how cool and laid back she was, they could never find somebody that was as cool as her.

"Matty? Can we talk?" Fallon asked as she raised her head slightly off of Matty's lap to look up at him. She needed to talk to him about what she had said. she needed him to understand, that she cared about him, but she wasn't sure that they could ever be more then friends.

Matt couldn't stop thinking about what Fallon had just told him he always flirted with her and she flirted back but he always figured he would be just her friend, and to be honest he was willing to be just the friend if that was the only way he could be around Fallon he would do anything for her or the twins and she knew he would. Matt looked down at Fallon as she closed her laptop and layed her head down on his lap it was great to be so close to her. Matt talked alittle longer then closed his laptop and pulled Fallon up closer to his and put his arm around her waist. Fallon understood Matt more then anyone, and she wasn't like every other girl she never got mad at Matt when he couldn't spend time with her she was always there for him at anytime of the night, and he knew she would do anything for him which made Matt like her even more. Matt just told Fallon that he liked her a lot and it made him so happy that she could just be around her much less that she liked him.

Matt rolled on his side so he could look at Fallon in her eyes Matt couldn't help but get lost in her beautiful eyes it felt like time started to go slower and he felt like he was the luckiest guy to have her as even a friend. " Yes we can talk Fallon, I want to say first that no matter what I'm your friend." Matt pulled Fallon closer to him this wasn't the first time they had laid together in the same bed but it was the first time they where alone and could talk without anyone checking up on them and bothering them. Matt kissed the top of Fallon's head he knew that she liked when he didn't and he wouldn't stop no matter what. " Did you really mean you have feelings for me?'' Matt smiled at her just thinking about that made his even happier.

Fallon smiled slightly when Matty closed his laptop and laid down with her. When he pulled her closer she snuggled into the side of his neck and sighed. She liked when he held her like this. She didn't know what to tell him. She was with Dom but she would like to see what would happen to them, if they dated.

She placed her and on his chest and started drawing random designs with her fingers. She sighed again, not knowing where to start. "I hope you're not always my friend." She said lightly, hoping he didn't take it the wrong way. She had meant it that she would like to see what they would be like as more then friends.

She smiled really big when he kissed the top of her head. It always made her feel so safe and loved when he did that. She moved her head to be able to look into his eyes. "Of course I meant it. You know me Matty, I don't say stuff just to say it I say it cause I mean it." She said it scolding him lightly.

Matt patted Fallon on her side and winked at her he knew that she meant she hoped that one day they would be together but he wanted her to say it "You don't want to be my friend forever? That makes me sad Fallon." Matt smiled at her he knew that him, and Fallon could work together that was the best part they worked out great together and she understood Matt." Fallon what do you think we should do then I just want you to be happy no matter what with me or with Dom, But we need to talk about this and work this out." Matt was never this serious around Fallon he was usually goofing off and making jokes with her. This was the first time they had layed down and just talked about things that where going on between them. Matt kissed her on the head again. Matt couldn't stop thinking about how beautiful she was even laying in the bed with one of his big shirts on she looked better then any girl when they where all fixed up that's was another thing Matt loved about her the fact that she didn't have to get all dressed up to be with him because he hated getting all dressed up.

" I'm happy you told me because i have felt the same way for sometime now i was just afriad because I thought you would feel like I was trying to break up you and Dom and know you have to think of more then just you, and I don't want to make things hard for you.'' Matt pulled the covers over hims and Fallon looking at her " Why is it so cold in here? I think you need to cuddle with me more to keep me warm.'' Matt smiled at her and laughed a little he knew Fallon would get as close to him as she could and Matt didnt mind at all because he liked being close to her. Matt rolled back over on his back so Fallon could put hr head back on his chest. " Do you think it would work out between us if we really did try Fallon? Because I really think it would and I'm not saying that just to make you feel good."

Fallon lightly slapped Matt's arm. "You know damn well what I mean, Mister." She laughed and smiled up at him letting him know that she was just joking. It was funny that he seemed to be the only person that ever knew when she was being sarcastic or being real. Him and Dom. That was probably why they both had special places in her heart. She didn't love Matty as anything more then a friend. But she knew that if she did start something with him that that love wouldn't take long to take root.

Fallon took a deep breath and snuggled closer to Matt. "I think for right now, we should just be us. Not change anything." A part of her thought that it would be any day now that Dom would realize what he had gotten himself into and leave her. She would NOT use Matt as a rebound. "If things between me and Dom ever did go wrong. I would be with you, but not right away. I would wait so that we were both sure you weren't just a rebound. Because you deserve the best Matty. No mattter what."

Fallon laid her head back on Matty's chest and snuggled closer to him. "Yes I have the twins, but I would never think that you were trying to break me and Dom up. You know how I feel about parents being in their kids lives, seeing as mine never are. They missed the twins being born for God's sake. I mean I know that I'm a teen but still its their grandkids." She took a deep breath to keep from crying. Matty was the only one that knew how much it hurt her with the way her parents treated her.

She smiled against his chest. "If we ever were to be together, we both know we would kick ass at it, and be the best couple ever. Seeing as everybody already thinks we are a couple and you are the twins dad." She said on a laugh as she looked up into Matty's eyes. She knew deep down that no matter what happened, she didn't want to do anything that would make her lose Matty in her life. He was her rock. Her best friend.

Matt laughed a little as she playfully slapped him he loved picking on her, and the fact she was the type of girl that could take a joke was even better. Matt loved Fallon to death but he couldn't tell her that she would think he was crazy, and that's the last thing Matt wanted the girl of his dreams to think about him." Fallon I know you have Dom, and I cant change that no matter how hard I try to be honest I don't think I would because your Happy and if you happy I'm happy.'' Matt putt his hand in Fallon's and closed his eye feeling the weight of his head on his chest he slowly breathed in and out just enjoying to alone time they where spending together. Matt snuggled up to Fallon he let out a deep breath trying to choose what to say because he knew that it would hurt if he said it wrong. " Fallon I know you wouldn't use me as just a rebound I know you think more of me then that, and the same thing to you I don't want us to rush into something then we loose each other over this."

Matt paused for a couple minutes so she could take in all the things he was saying it was hard for Matt to keep from tearing up. It didn't help that she brought the twins into it he loved the two more then anything in the world he would put his life on the line for them, and planned on being a big part of there life no matter what he had to do. Matt wasn't joking when he asked Fallon to move with him he knew she would say no but it would give them both a fresh start, and the fact the he could take care of Fallon and the kids and have Fallon with him in college was what he wanted, and if if meant having to stay in the small home town and miss out on the big colleges and football he would. " Fallon those to kids mean every thing to me even thought they arnt mine I will treat them like they are, and they will always be able to count on me to be there when no one else can be. The other thing I want to say is sometime i wish there where mine because it would me I could be with you.''

Matt started to twist Fallon's hair around his other finger he couldn't be leave that he just admitted he wish the twins where his he looked at them as and every one else mi staked them as his and most of the time if Fallon didn't tell them different he wouldn't ether. Matt figured it was time to tell Fallon about his big secret if they where going to work she was going to have to know every thing about him, and he knew that she would understand. " Fallon I need to tell you something, and I hope you don't look at me any different. A year ago when i practically disappeared of the face of the earth I was going threw rehab. I got addicted to pain killer after a sports injury, and i didn't tell anyone i was hurt I was using the pills so i could play, but I'm clean now and i hope this doesn't make you decided we cant talk." Fallon was only the third person besides family that knew about it, and he was hoping he would never have to tell anyone else.

Matt laughed Fallon was right they would kick ass at being a cupple it would hardly change anything they already act like they are together, and most people already thought they where together since every time you seen one of them the other wasnt far behind with the other twin on there hip or pushing them in the stroller. Matt smiled just thinking about being Fallons boyfriend made him so happy. " Your right sweetie we would be the best couple ever, and the fact that every one thinks im the twins father I could careless my parents love the twins and there okay with me and you being together so its no one elses business."

Fallon snuggled closer to Matty. She was happy that he understood about Dom. While Dom had been pulling away from her more and more as of late, she still didn't want to lose him. She completely agreed with him. Losing him was the last thing that she ever wanted. She needed Matty, he was the only one there for her when Dom wasn't. "I agree Matty. I don't know what I would do if I ever lost you." She told him being completely honest.

Tears came to Fallon's eyes when he said that he loved the twins. It brought tears to her eyes because she knew that when he said he loved them it wasn't as an uncle, it was as a father figure. It made her want to cry more when he said he wished they were his. "Matty." She sniffled as she wrapped her arms around him burying her face in his neck.

She wrapped her arms more tightly around him when he told her about his past. That made sense, what he was saying. He had kind of pushed her away about a year ago. At the time she had thought it was because she was dating a new guy. The time he had done that was right around the time she had started dating Dom, they had had a fight, and she had thought it was because she was spending most of her time with Matty. "Oh Matty. Why didn't you tell me? I would have been there for you." She said as she actually started to cry. The thought of possiblely lossing Matty broke her heart. "I don't know what I would do if I lost you." She cried into his chest.

She sniffled and looked up at him. "You've talked to them about us?" She couldn't dream of being able to talk to her parents about her love life. That would mean they would have to actually be in the same room as her for more then two seconds. They still had yet to meet their grandkids. She doubted if they even knew that she was living Dom right now.
