Murder in the Dark

Path of Hate

This morning I woke up just like normal. I text Matt hoping we can talk in person about what Juliette had said before he got there.

Lilith- hey Matt

Matt- hey lils, what's up?

Lilith- can we meet up I need to talk to you about something really important to me.

Matt- of course ml, I'm on my way down now.

I put my phone down. I think to myself about what is starting to add up; they were both giggling at their phones, "ma" could be anyone but honestly they way she screeched Matt's name made me believe it was Matt, and Matt was giggling on the phone with someone just the day before. Again that could've been anyone but they were both giggling it has to be something.

When Matt and I finally get to meet up, I start it off strong. "Matt I feel like you and Juliette are hiding something from me." We sit there for a few seconds before he answers. "Lilith.." my eyes widen with shock, I think to myself "my full name.." he continues, "Lilith me and Juliette have been texting and calling for awhile that's true and I won't deny it. But it's nothing personal. She just..." I get angry when he has to think about what he has to say next. "ABOUT WHAT MATTHEW?" I say yelling. It echos through the street way we are sitting on. I look at him with fire in my eyes my heart burning with rage. "About Chris." He looks away, as if he's disappointed. "I can't believe you don't trust me Lilith." He turns away from me and from what I can see there's tears in his eyes. "Matt you have to understand my point of view.." I say feeling bad.

Just then Juliette walks outside, she must've heard me yell. She runs over and pushes me away from Matt. MY OWN BOYFRIEND. "Okay first, you have no right to push me away from my boyfriend." I say stepping towards her. "And second you need to keep your hands off me before things get messy, which they don't need to but if you wanna test it.." I say staring her down with that "I'm gonna fucking kill you" look. She steps away from me and Matt. "That's what I thought Juliette." I pull Matt to walk next to me.

"Matt what I really wanted to talk about is.." I pause almost nervous to say it. "Juliette is saying bad things about our relationship and that's why i seemed to not trust you earlier and I saw her texting you and I got nervous and.." he cut me off. "I understand Lilith, I just thought u would trust me more after we've been dating for 6 months." He finishes.

while he was right i just couldnt let go of the fact that they were both acting so weird..
