matthew ran after her and smiled wide. he, too, was breathless after all the running they both did. he turned to her after she slowed down and let out breaths. “damn, vi, you’re fast.” he laughed and then looked at her, holding onto her hands as she walked backwards. he watched her and couldn’t help but grin. “mm, okay. this is a big step in our friendship. you trusting me like this.” he teased and then gasped. “lamp post!” he warned but also was lying to her. he stepped closer to her and laughed. “i’m kidding, I’m absolutely kidding! you’re fine. you’re good. don’t hate me.” he squeezed her hands.
“i’m a speed demon, what can i say?” she giggled as she continued to walk backwards. her dark brown eyes settled on his a bit skeptically, shrugging lightly. “well, it’s either this or a lame trust fall exercise. this seems like it’ll make or break it..” she murmured, jumping in surprise and flipping her head over her shoulder to dodge the alleged lamp post. “what?!” she said, worried but then noticed nothing was there. vi put one hand over her chest to calm her racing heart before giving matt a light shove. “you prankster!” she gasped with a laugh. “i appreciate the warning, it was getting close.”
