Leave Me Before I Go

Back Together

I suddenly wake up when Michael stopped the car. Wow, I slept the whole way here. I don't even know where this "here" is.

"We're here." He looked at me and gave me a smile.

I rubbed my eyes a little and looked around. Everything was green! So green and beautiful. I looked a bit further and could see this old house. A very big house. A very, very big one.

"Michael, did you just bring me to Northanger Abbey?" I asked my eyes now wide open.

"Nope." He said amused.

"What then, Downton Abbey?!"

"No." he says again, with more amusement.

He looks at me waiting for me to ask him another question. But I don't give in I just stare back.

"No...? No more questions maybe?" he asks. Teasing.

"Michael. Just. Tell. Me." I say finally breaking the stare.

"It's Matt's place!" he says. Thrilled.

"Matt's place?!" I ask taken a back.

"Not technically. His parents are the owners but he has the key." He says getting out of the car.

"How many keys?!" I say. Michael opens my side of the door for me and gives me the royal hand gesture. Okay... this is new.

"M'lady." He says. His head bowed. I can see his smirk though. I can see it. A wide smirk.

"Thank you kind sir." I say as I grab his hand, softly and get out of the car. He closes the door for me.

"I assume this is Matt's car as well." I say.

"Why yes Miss Marple." He says.

"I'm Sherlock you numb nut!" I say and then pinch his arm.

"OW! Fine. Be a man! I don't fucking care. I'd love you even if you had a dick there... somewhere..." he says his face fakely puzzled.

"Oh my God, Michael! Are you just coming out of the closet?!" I say. Dramatically surprised.

He took a look at my face and started laughing.

"For fuck's sake. Can we just get inside?" he says and grabs my hand.

We walk to the front door -of many other front doors I assume- and Michael knocks.

I can hear music playing from inside. Are they recording songs? I don't know. Michael hasn't told me anything. The door opens and I see Matt standing there. He looks tired but the smile that forms on his face when he sees me and Michael makes me feel better.

"Dick head!" Matt yells. "Is my car all right?" he says.

Michael points to where the car is parked and nods. "The car is fine, stop giving me shit about it!" Michael says. Matt gives him the "oh, fuck off" eyes and lets us come inside.

He grabs me by his arms lifting me a little, hugging me. "What happened to you Scar? Disappearing, leaving worrying voicemails!" Matt says and then puts me back down.

"Ask him. He fucked the model." I say joking.

"You really fucked Rose?!" Matt looks at Michael. Completely taken a back.

"Fuck sake Scarlet! Joking about it now, aren't we?" Michael says. He seems hurt.

"Michael! You don't fuck Rose! Seriously man! You just don't. Medical caution." Matt says.

"Oh fuck off Matt!" Michael says.

"Come on now boys. Don't fight." I say giggling. "Matt, could you please show me the bathroom."

Matt nods and takes my hand. He does it so he can piss off Michael.

"You fuck! Don't hold her hand!" Michael says. Practically screaming. "I know what you're doing... trying to PISS ME OFF!" he shouts as Matt takes me through his palace to show me the bathroom.

"Not very bright, is he?" he says laughing.

"What can I say, I like dorks." I say giggling.

"Are you okay now?" Matt says not laughing anymore. Quite serious actually.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm fine." I answer. Trying my best to sound completely sure.

"Is your bathroom really this far?!" I ask matt.

"Not really. I need to talk to you." He says. Serious which is strange for Matt.

"What?" I suddenly got worried.

"A guy named William called. Do you know him?" he ask.

"Yeah, he is a friend. Why did he call you?" I ask him, quite surprised.

"I don't know how he happened to reach me but he was very worried about you and said you weren't answering your phone." He says and then stands next to a door.

"The bathroom is here." He says opening the door.

"He must have gotten your number from Lana. I should call him." I say.

"Look Scar, I know what Michael did was stupid and awful but if you are doing some sort of payback thing to him..."

I don't let him finish.

"No! Matt I wouldn't. Will is just a friend. Okay? Nothing more. I wouldn't do such a thing to Michael. You know that." I say. I can't believe he would think I'd do something like this.

"Yeah. Sorry." He says.

"It's okay." I say. I go in to the bathroom and close the door. I should call Will and Lana. Maybe something is up that Will had gone so far to call Matt.
