Ella's POV;

I wake up to the smell of croissants?

I get out of bed, and pick up one of Mattie's shirts before putting it on.

I quickly dig through my bag and find my toothbrush, before going to brush my teeth because I hate morning breath.

I put my toothbrush back in my washbag, and head downstairs.

"Morning beautiful," Mattie greets me with a kiss.

"Morning baby," I reply, kissing him back.

"You made me croissants?" I ask.

"I did indeed, sit and eat them and I'll make you tea," He says whilst pulling a chair out for me.

"You're too nice to me," I say whilst sitting down.

"Well someone has to be," He smirks. "I had an idea,"

"Hmm what's that?" I ask whilst placing a piece of croissant in my mouth.

"Well, since its the weekend, I figured if you didn't have plans already, you could tell your mum you're staying round Blake's for another night and we can stay here and do whatever you want?" he mentions.

"Even if I did have plans - which I don't - I would cancel them to spend more time with you," I answers and he smiles.

"So that's a yes?"

"Let me call my mum," I smile whilst grabbing my phone.

I dial mums number and she picks up almost immediately.

"Hello sweetie, are you alright?" She asks.

"Hi mum, yeah I'm fine, I was thinking of staying round Blake's again tonight if that's alright?"

"Of course darling that's fine," she answers.

"Thanks mum, how's dad and Renee?" I ask.

"They're alright, your dads still asleep of course, and Renee's crying over Vampire Diaries," She tells me and I chuckle.

"Sounds like them," I respond.

"Yep. Ooh the cookies are done!" she shouts.

"Cookies?" I ask, confused.

"Oh yes, I'm baking cookies for your English teacher to show my appreciation for helping you get your grade up," She says and I spit my tea out and choke, earning a confused look from Mattie.

"Oh mum, you didn't need to do that! I'm sure he knows we appreciate his help!" I panic.

"Nonsense! I've made them now, I'll drop them round his later," she says so casually and I almost die on the spot.

"No mum! Wait till I get back tomorrow and we can do it together," I try and reason with her.

"No, they'll be spoiled tomorrow, I'll just do it later sweetie," she replies.

"But mum, he's my teacher, I'm more grateful for his help than you," I say and realise I sound like a jealous teenager, but I shake it off because I am a jealous teenager.

I look over at Mattie and he's smirking, obviously finding my jealousy amusing.

"Oh darling, you don't fancy him do you?" She asks and I snort.

"Mum! You sound like a 12 year old! No I do not fancy him! Sounds like you do though," I roll my eyes.

"Are you sure?" she laughs.

"Yes mum, I'm sure! You're the one with this weird obsession with him, you keep inviting him to our house and now you're baking him cookies, you're married!" I scoff.

"Well he is quite hot," she says and I stand up in despair.

"Mum! Now you definitely sound like a 12 year old! Once again may I remind you, you're married!"

"Oh I know darling, I'm only teasing you. I've still baked him cookies and I'm still going to bring them round later, okay love you bye!" She says before hanging up.

"Mum!-" I yell before realising she's gone.

"What was that all about?" Mattie grins.

"Mums baked you cookies to thank you again for tutoring me. And she thinks you're, and I quote 'hot',"

"She thinks I'm hot? And she bakes cookies? You're mums quite a catch isn't she," He grins and I growl at him.

"Did you just growl at me?" He laughs.

"Yes. Yes I did," I say sternly.

"Aw baby, you know I'm only joking, I love youuuu," He pouts.

"You're lucky I love you so much," I say before kissing him.

Just then the doorbell goes.

"Oh my god that woman is relentless!" I whisper shout.

"That woman is your mother," Mattie grins.

"I know, and I love her, but its rather annoying when she's constantly flirting with you, you're mine," I pout.

"Say that again," He says and I grin.

"You're mine," I whisper whilst grabbing his face gently kissing him.

I dip my head to his neck and start kissing it, earning a slight moan from him.

I grin whilst sliding my hand down to his boxers, whilst gently palming him.

"Ella," He moans and I smirk.

I nip at his collar bone, leaving a small red mark and mentally hi-fiving myself in satisfaction.

The bell rings again and I roll my eyes.

"Have fun with your erm, friend," I point at his very visible member. "And please don't keep her here too long, tell you're busy," I whine.

"Might keep her longer now you've left me with this," He grins.

I roll my eyes whilst throwing some jeans and a t-shirt at him.

"Put them on, I don't want her fangirling to me about how she's seen your body," I say and he smirks whilst putting them on.

Suddenly I see her head pop through the window and I rush to the nearest hiding place, which happens to be under the breakfast bar.

Mattie walks over to the door and answers it.

"Mandy, hi!" He greets her, pretending as if he didn't already know she was coming.

"Oh hello Mattie! I just thought I'd drop off these cookies, as a token of my appreciation towards you helping Ella get her grades up," I hear her say and I roll my eyes.

"Oh, you shouldn't have!" He replies.

"Well I just really do appreciate you helping Ella out," she gushes.

"It's no problem at all. Ella is a really lovely young woman," He says and I smile to myself.

"Yes, she is," My mum agrees.

"Did you, want to come in for a cup of tea?" He says, and I can hear hesitation in his voice.

"Oh of course!" mum says and I quietly sigh to myself. This is going to be a longgg day.
