where do we go now, matt sturniolo

໒ the truth ᭡

violet was sitting in math with chris as they waited for the class to start, "are you ever going to release the song?" chris asks.

violet smiles at him and raises her eyebrows. "are you guys ever going to let me record it?" she asks back.

chris nods in agreement. "okay, you got two months."

"you are giving me a deadline?" she asked looking at him like he was crazy.

"no actually matt gave you that deadline. i kid you not, guy said some. she's got two months to release it or i'll leak it." chris said mocking matt.

violet laughed quietly. "wow. okay, okay. i'll try to get it out i promise."

"okay you better."

and on went the day. it was after school and violet was putting her things away in her locker. "so we have a question. and confession." nick says approaching her.

"shoot." violet replies.

"okay so, we have a youtube channel and we were wondering if you wanted to be in a video." nick asks with a huge smile.

"oh. okay. and sure." violet smiled at him.

"okay let's hurry because chris and matt are waiting." nick said rushing her.

"oh! oh! alright sorry." she said rushing.

the two climbed into the backseat. and they drove to an empty parking lot. "okay matt go check the camera it's recording." chris said after clicking the record button.

matt got out of the car and checked then sat back down. "it's good." he said.

"i figured dumbass." nick said making chris laugh. "okay so we're doing a q&a." nick said to the camera. "this is our good friend violet by the way."

she waved at the camera with a smile. matt's stare lingered a little longer than it probably should have.

"okay so first question. what's one of you fears?" nick asks.

"car crashes. that's why i don't want to drive i mean they're just scary." chris said his eyes widening.

violet gulped down. her palms sweaty and her hands shaking it all just rushes back. so fast. dammit it was just a pain in the ass. the survivors guilt. she should've been dead. it was her fault or so she thought. people had told her over and over again it wasn't but dammit she thought, no, she knew it was her fault.

"violet?" matt called out. she snapped out of it and raised her eyebrows.

"yeah?"

"what's yours?"

"oh. right, sorry. um. i guess, the truth." she answered causing all of them to look at her clueless. "okay explanation i guess. what i mean is, there's so many secrets in the world you know? like some can hurt others and some can hurt yourself. if the truth just came out everywhere this world would be filled with wars. the truth is really scary."

"you're fucking depressed." nick said bluntly. violet laughed at the sudden outburst. "i'm being for real. that's just depressing."

"but it's really accurate." matt chimed in.

"you're depressed too then." chris said pointing at his brother.

"so are you saying you have secrets that can hurt us or you?" nick asked looking at her genuinely curious.

"not you guys but, i do have some skeletons in my closet that's just—"she paused thinking of the right word, "that would make you guys look at me differently." chris looks at her like she had some nudes leaked or he'll murdered someone, "it's not that i was a bad person at least i don't think i was."

they filmed the rest of the video before driving back to their house they wanted violet to see their home.
