Chapter 8

Monday was here and I was not particularly ready to deal with Matty, once he gives the cold shoulder and silent treatment, it usually goes on for a long time, that boy really knew how to hold a grudge, and he learned from the best, me. I saw him walking down the hallway with my sister and Tiggs, with that smile, that smile was one of the reasons that pulled me into the relationship. He looked in my direction, and his smile went completely flat. He tapped Tiggs on the shoulder and pointed in the direction of the boy's bathroom, if he thought he was getting away from me that easily, he was wrong. I followed him into the boy's bathroom, luckily, he was the only one in there

"Matty, I need you to talk to me, please", I begged, and he would not look at me , I really wanted to rekindle what we had because even though me and Kaleb had a moment of passion that was regrettable, nothing could compare to the feelings that me and Matty shared. I put my hands on his face gently, and turned it to face my own, and looked into his eyes, "babe, please, I'm willing to do anything for us to get back to where we were even if it takes time, what happened between me and Kaleb was a complete and utter mistake, something I would never do again", he looked like he was caving in and was ready to work on us, but he removed my hand from his face and held my two hands together, "Jess, I really wish I could trust you, I do, but how can I know that you're telling the truth after what your sister told me". "After what my sister told you", I said confused, "and what did my dear sister tell you?", and I really, really listened good for this part.

"She told me that before we got together, you and Kaleb hooked up, how you guys would fool around late at night, and how you guys would come home drunk and laugh with other almost every night", he spat at me, I put my hand on my hips and angrily shouted, "that bitch!", "look, look Matty yes we did fool around, just intense make out sessions, but we never went any further, no sex nothing, hell I didn't even drink", I explained to him, "and he didn't want a relationship with the whole emotional rollercoaster, but I did, and he couldn't give me that, so we ended it, it lasted three months, and then I met you, someone I could actually put my feelings towards, and someone who would do the same", tears were actually starting to roll and they were rolling out fast and my throat was beginning to close up.

Our heart to heart came to end when no one other than Kaleb came into the bathroom, whistling like he was the happiest person in the world, and when he saw us he completely froze, I quickly tried to wipe away my tears, and he turned around to leave, "no it's okay Kaleb", Matty said, "I was just leaving", he spat, but before he left he leaned down to whisper in my ear, "don't let his tongue go too far down your throat", and then the tears came again, he left slamming the door. Kaleb had no problem coming to my rescue, "Jess are you alright?" he gently asked rubbing my back, "don't you touch me Kaleb you did enough, let's just get through the three days we're supposed to meet, and another thing, the date's off, I'll figure out how to get in there on my own, I don't want to spend any more time than I have to with you" I seethed at him. "Jae forget the date, I'll get you in just be there tomorrow at 9", and with that I left also slamming the door.

The rest of the day went by slowly, I swear it was the slowest day of school I've ever had in my life, I had to look at my friends, ex-boyfriend and snake of a sister enjoying themselves, laughing, I didn't want to agitate Matty more than he already was, and I didn't want to have to bitch slap my sister in front of anyone, I could do that at home. Communication Studies was our last class of the day, and the teacher assigned us seats at the beginning of the year, and there were no changes that could be made in how we sat, and I was paired with Matty. I let out a heavy sigh before entering class, and sitting next to Matty, he ignored me just as he did since we left the bathroom, and I tried not to getting in his way, so we stayed on our side and said not one word to each other. Usually we would be sneaking kisses and notes to each other, but there was no way that would be happening for a while, although I really wanted it to.

Having my sister around, knowing what she told Matty was torture, there was not one second where I did not want to gauge her eyes out. "What are you staring at Jess?", she asked me confused, "just wondering", I answered nonchantly, "about what?", she kept the questions coming, "about how you managed to tell Matty about the relationship me and Kaleb had", and she froze. "Look Jae, I didn't mean for it to come out the way it did, Matty was miserable and he just kept asking if I knew anything, he was desperate, and he kept pestering me so I slipped up and told him by accident", she was looking dead on at me when she told me, no feeling of remorse in her words, then she walked away. I clenched my fists hard and my nails dug into the skin of my palms, does she even care, I thought to myself

Time must have flown by, because before I knew it, it was twenty minutes to nine, and I had to meet Kaleb soon. I ran upstairs to get dressed in something more club like to blend in, I guess. When turning the corner to get in my room, I ran into something, or rather someone, I looked up and it was Matty. "Oh Matty, I didn't know you were here" I said in a high-pitched tone, "that was the point", he coldly said to me as he brushed past me to get to the bathroom. I looked back in his direction, but he didn't. Sighing, I went into my room to change and get what I needed.
