The truth never set me free so I'll do it to my self

Viviana p.o.v.

The evening of the dinner with Sofia and Matt is finally came. I was nervous, very nervous.
I feared that the two doesn’t get along and everything ended up in a fight, which I don’t what it to happen. I loved both and I could stand to be on a side or on another.
Tony held on his promise, he left the house around six o’clock screaming he was going to the poor Jaime, my sister didn’t seem so happy. I brought once again chaos in her life, I hope they fixed this problem that I created.
I didn’t know what to wear so I choose a simple t-shirt and a skirt and then I went downstairs, there was a good smell coming from the kitchen and the table was already settled so I just sat on the couch waiting for him.
At eight o’clock the doorbell rang and I opened the door to Matt, he gave me a bunch of flowers – red roses – and gave another one to Sofia.
She smiled.
“Thank you, Matt. As you probably know I am Sofia, the older sister of Viviana.”
“I know, nice to meet you. I am Matt Healy.”
“Cool, sit down and then I will come with the dinner.”
We sat at the table, he was holding my hand who was shaking, I cared a lot about my sister opinion. She was my only family, after all.
After a while she came with some spaghetti dish and we started to eat.
“So, where are you from, Matt?”
“Manchester, England.”
“Nice, my sister told me you are in a band.”
“Yeah, we are the 1975 and we hope that sometimes someone will find us interesting, for now we are pretty famous just in the underground world.”
She nodded, smiling. I don’t like that smile.
“I heard also one other thing: you were addicted to cocaine.
Is this addiction over or my sister will leave with a junkie?”
There was a moment of awkward silence and I wondered how did she discovered the while cocaine story.
“The addiction is over, I’m clear from cocaine.
I smoked cigarettes and sometimes weeds, that’s all. I’m not a junkie anymore.”
She gave him a piercing look and finally she grinned.
“Nice to know, I was worried about it.”
“Don’t worry I will take care of Viviana.”
He stated serious.
“That’s all that matters to me, she’s my little sister and I always cared about her. I don’t want her involved in some drug situations, I know how hard is to cope with it.”
“Your sister told me.”
Sofia didn’t say anything, but she didn’t seem bothered.
“Cool, so we can start this right.”
“I’m clean, you’re clean and Vivi is safe.”
We finished to eat, my sister was silent, there was maybe something else she wanted to ask or maybe is just not happy to let me go.
“Did you have an apartment in Manchester?”
“Sure, it’s not so big, but I’m sure that me and you sister can live there.”
She sighed.
“I really can’t believe that she’s going with you in England. I haven’t got much more to say or to ask. You are clean, you seem to like her a lot and she loves you, so…
I’m gonna tell you just one thing: treat her well, because she deserves it.
We were raised by an abusive mother and so if you treat her bad I will kill you. I will know if something will be wrong.
I’m a friend of Oli Sykes and I’m gonna ask him to give a look at you sometimes.
That’s it.”
Matt watched her impressed.
“Are you really friend with Oli Sykes?”
“Sure as hell, dude. So watch out.”
After that she let us free to go whatever we wanted to go, it was not so bad in the end. She was simply worried about me, it’s a thing that we soon developed with a mother like ours.
“Wow, your sister is scary!”
Said Matt when we were outside.
“Yeah, she can be like that when she is worried for someone she love.”
“She loves you very much.”
“Yes, are you afraid of her?”
“Nope.”
I stopped walking for a while, thinking about the questions my sister brought.
“Matt?”
“Yeah?”
“Are you really clean?”
He looked at me with a serious glance.
“Yeah, I’m clean from cocaine. I didn’t lie to Sofia, it’s no use. Why should I do that?”
“I dunno, maybe because you don’t wanna lose me.”
“No, don’t worry.”
I sighed in relief.
“Where, do we go, Matt?”
“In a bar I know there’s a good band.”
“Let’s go there, hoping not to find Tony and Jaime.”
He nodded and we jumped on his car, he drove it downtown and parked it outside a local. We went in and it was very nice, furniture were with the three rasta’s colors and the band played a relaxing reggae music.
We sit on a table and we ordered some cocktails, I started to feel quite all right and happy, the music was good and Matt held my hand.
“Everything is so perfect right now that I’m scared.”
“I know that feeling, but don’t worry it doesn’t end soon.”
He said smiling and moving his head in time with the music. When ours cocktails arrived I sipped a little and it was pretty good.
After a while he asked me to dance, I nodded and he leaded me to the dance floor, the music was slow and relaxing so we were like hugged for most of the time.
I loved to feel his arm around my body and his chest pressed against me, it made me feel better and forgot for a while all my problems and messes.
I forgot about Jaime’s sadness, Tony’s anger and my sister’s unhappiness. He was my better plan.
“I love you, Matt.”
“I love you too, Viviana.”
I smiled like an idiot and kissed him, he kissed me back and the whole world around us disappeared.
Yes, he was my safe place in this chaos called Earth.
