Grabbing her duffel bag and heading out of the car once the engine was off, Leane waited outside for Matt as she took a deep breath and tried to calm her tears so his parent's wouldn't find out, hoping to just slip past them and let Matt do the talking for awhile.

Matthew smiled encouragingly as he put an arm around Leane's waist and kissed her forehead gently. "I love you, Lee." He murmured in her hair before leading her inside and directly to the guest bedroom without his parents' notice. "Here you are, love." He said as he took the bags from her hands and set them on the floor. Putiing both arms around Leane's waist, Matthew brought her to him for a soft kiss.

Wrapping her arms around his neck, Leane lightly leaned into him as one hand caressed his cheek while the other pressed against the back of his shoulder. "I love you," Leane whispered against his lips between kisses with a warm smile despite the continuing of her tears, "Very very much."

"I love you too, Leane." Matthew murmured before slipping his tongue between her lips, twirling one hand in her hair with the other pressed against his lower back. "No matter what." He promised as he urged Leane backwards against the wall of the guest bedroom, the hand on her back moving to caress her side.

Leane's smile widened as she leaned back against the wall and eagerly returned his kisses, her lips caressing his tongue before slipping hers between his lips in a tender kiss. "No matter what," Leane promised as one hand slid to clutch the shirt at his chest while the other slid into his hair and pulled him closer to her. "Forgive me for putting you through this," Leane whispered against his lips before getting lost in his kisses.

"Lee." Matthew murmured against her lips between kisses. "I'm going to go crazy if you keep asking for forgiveness." He said softly as he wrapped his arms tighter around her waist. "But maybe if you kiss me, I'll feel better." He smiled teasingly before resuming their kisses.

Wrapping one leg around his waist, Leane smiled as she pressed against him and eagerly returned his kisses as she murmured something that sounded like "I think I can do that". The more Matt kissed her, the more Leane felt as if everything would eventually turn out right, knowing that the man she loved and cherished with all of her heart felt the same about her through and through. "I love you," Leane whispered breathlessly as she stifled a soft moan as they kissed, her tears slowly to something of the past as her cheeks dried.

"I love you too, Lee." Matthew murmured as he put a hand under her bottom and lifted her slighty, carrying her to the guest bed where he laid her back against the bed and pressed soft kisses against her jaw and neck. "So much, my beautiful girl." He murmured as he brought his lips back to her's, his body pressing softly against her's.

"Matt.." A soft moan escaped Leane's lips as Matt pressed her back into the blankets of the bed. "Matt, not too far... Your parents will hear," Leane whispered as she felt her control wavering as she eagerly returned his kisses. Her leg entwined with his, her fingertips tenderly pressing into Matt's scalp, Leane lost herself in Matt's touch and kisses as they laid in the guest bed.

"I know." Matthew said as he cupped her cheek. "I just love kissing you. Can you blame me, Lee?" He asked with a warm smile. "You're absolutely gorgeous." He said before resuming his kisses, leaning away from their embrace slightly so not to tempt either of them to much.

"Stay beside me? Just no roaming hands and I'll be fine, I promise," Leane blushed as she leaned into him and eagerly returned his kisses. "Besides, I rather love kissing you as well, even if you do tell me I'm gorgeous when I look wretched from crying to much," Leane laughed softly before resuming their kisses.

"You're always beautiful, Lee." Matthew laughed as he left his hands lingering softly on her lower back as he gave her lips tender kisses, careful not to lose control with his parents home.

Leane rolled her eyes lightly with a laugh but chose not to ruin their kissing with talk of whether or not she looked wretched or not.

"I love you," Leane whispered against his lips with a warm smile before getting lost in his kisses, loving how his kisses always made the world right again, no matter what had happened.

Matthew didn't know how long they had been kissing when he heard his mother announce that dinner was ready. Sighing as he leaned back away from Leane, his arms still snug around her waist, he placed a gently kiss on her forehead. "Are you sure you don't want to eat anything?" He asked as he took in her kiss swollen lips a bit proudly.

Leane lightly shook her head before placing a tender kiss upon his lips, "Yes, I'm fine. If there's anything left after dinner, I might warm it up later. But right now I don't wish to face your parents like this," Leane whispered before placing another kiss upon his lips, "You'd best go eat, though, I'll be fine. Your parents will surely be angry if we both stay in here instead of going to dinner."

Matthew smiled as he caressed Leane's cheek, giving her forehead a tender kiss. "I love you." He said softly before getting up from the bed and going into the kitchen where his parents sat for dinner.

"Where's Leane?" His mother asked softly, her tone confused as Matt entered the kitchen alone.

"Things didn't go over well with Josh so she's resting." Matthew explained as he sat down at the table.

"Poor thing." His mother frowned as she passed around some dishes, his father nodding in agreement before digging in to the food in front of him.

Leane sighed as she curled up in the bed, pulling the sheets close around her as she buried her cheek in the pillow, closing her eyes as she willed herself not to begin crying once more, despite her thoughts being plagued by the encounter with Josh and the words that were not only spoken, but unspoken as well.

Matthew frowned as he helped his mother pick up the dishes, his father already half asleep in front of the football team. "Go check on, Leane." His mother said with a smile, taking the plates out of Matthew's hand. "I'll fix a plate and put it in the fridge for her so she can just warm it up." She said as she ushered Matthew out of the kitchen.

"Thanks, mom." Matthew smiled, relieved that he could comfort Leane, at least to the best of his ability. Making his way to the guest room, Matthew gently knocked on the door before opening it a crack. "Lee, do you mind if I come in?" He asked timidly.

While Matt and his family had ate their dinner, Leane had fallen asleep in the comfort of the bed. When Matt entered, Leane was not aware of it until he had called out to her, startling her awake in the silence.

Rubbing her eyes, Leane sighed as she calmed her heart and called sleepily, "Unh-unh, why would I mind? Please, come in," Leane said with a warm, sleepy smile as she turned and looked up at Matt. "Were your parents angry?"

"Of course not." Matthew smiled timidly as he walked over to Leane's bed and laid down beside her, his arms wrapping arund her waist to give her a tender kiss. "Mom put a plate of food in the fridge for you if you get hungry later." Matthew said between kisses, letting his lips linger against her's for a bit longer. "I'm sorry I woke you." He murmured, his lips still pressed against her's in a tender kiss.

"Mmmm, I'm not. I rather like kissing you," Leane whispered with a sleepy giggle as she wrapped her arms around Matt's neck and leaned into him, returning his kisses slowly as she began to become more awake and alert with each movement. "I'll have to thank your mother in the morning, I'm sure I'll be hungry during the night," Leane whispered between kisses before resting her forehead against Matt's. Looking up into his eyes, Leane inquired softly, "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, love." Matthew smiled happily against her lips. "I just miss kissing you." He grinned before locking Leane's lips in a long, tender kiss. "You're irresistable, you know that?" He asked with a small laugh.

Leane laughed softly as she pressed her lips against is in a soft, gentle kiss, "I'm glad you think so, dearest. I love you," Leane whispered against his lips between tender kisses as she leaned into him and lightly played with the strands of hair at the base of his neck.

"I love you too, Lee." Matthew murmured as he leaned closer to Leane, his arms wrapping tighter around her waist. Letting his hand wander to the hem of Leane's shirt, Matthew slipped a few fingers under Leane's shirt to caress her side.

Leane's heart fluttered at his touch as a soft moan escaped her lips, her tongue slipping between his lips as she kissed him. "Dearest... Tomorrow.. Can we skip and just hang out in the city for awhile? We could go bowling or to the movies.... We could go to the park... Anything," Leane murmured softly against his lips as she wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer to her, "We can skip the rest of the week even," Leane added hopefully as she looked up into his eyes, "Please?"
