Matthew hadn't rough house ever. He doesn't like to invite pain. Even if everything he did to his dad invited pain. He looked at her and smiled. Smiling even though he didn't feel it. "That is good. i was worried I might have hurt your feelings. Or upset you by taking off like that." He said honestly. He looked away and didn't say anything when he felt her gaze on his bruise. He half expected her to say something but was rather relieved when she didn't. He looked at her. "Go to the beach." He said with a bit of a smile. He loved going to the beach. He stood up. Spotting his backpack. "Oh. Thanks for bringing me my bag." He said with a smile. Picking it up. He took her hand and pulled her up. Taking her away from the school after grabbing her bag as well. Taking her from the town and to an off beaten path. THe sound of sea birds getting closer the longer they walked. "I'm...glad I can trust you." He said softly.
