Gus's P.O.V

"Holy shit, I swear when I get my hands on her.." Steve said, he looked angrier than I had ever seen before. "I'll be back." He says, grabbing his Coven uniform and staff before angrily marching out the door.

Hm, wonder what he's gonna do... probably nothing serious.

I sigh before making my way back upstairs to Matt's room. I feel so bad for him, no one deserves what just happened. I had woken up to the sound of Matt crying, looked up to see.. whatever the fuck that was. I was so angry at her in that moment I swear.

I shake my head as I enter the bedroom, locking the door behind me. Matt was still fast asleep, but he didnt seem to be in the most peaceful state of sleep. I look down and check up the time on my scroll. 11:14am. I guess I could go back to sleep.. hopefully I don't distrupt Matt though... I carefully climb onto the bed beside him, making sure to keep a bit of distance just incase he wanted to be alone right now. But apparently, I was wrong, as I could hear him turn onto his side to face me before pulling me closer to him, gripping me tight. I smile at the gesture before wrapping my arms around him.

"Gus.." Matt mumbles into my ear, causing me to wake up.

"Mhm?" I reply, not opening my eyes.

"Can you please let go of me.. I want to get up.."

"Oh, yeah of course, sorry about that.." I say, letting go of him and sitting up in the bed. I check the time on my scroll. 4:39pm. WAIT HOLD UP A SECOND. ITS 4:39pm.. YOU'RE KIDDING. "Holy crap.. we slept for a long time huh." I mutter to myself.

"Yeah." Matt replies as he takes a hoodie out of my bag.

"Are you alright?" I ask, "What she did to you must've been awful.."

"I'm fine. It's fine." He replied quickly, his face looking slightly panicked. He clearly wasn't okay, but I don't know what to do about it. "I uh.. I'm.. I'm going for a.. a..  a walk. Yes, a walk!" He said hurriedly, grabbing his scroll before running out the door.

I wish that there was something that I could do to help him.. but what? Ugh, I don't know.

I stretch my arms above my head as I hop off of the bed. I quickly get changed before heading downstairs to the living room. To my suprise, My dad was sitting on the couch, watching the crystal ball by himself.

"Hey Dad." I say, going and sitting beside him. "Is your face okay?"

"Hello Augustus. And yeah, my face is fine." He answered plainly. "But uh, why did Matt just run out if the house? Did you guys get into a fight or something?"

Uhh, what do I say? I feel like it's not my place to tell him.. So I won't, but whats a reasonable enough excuse?

"He was late to meet up with some friends, that's why he left in such a rush. We didn't get into a fight or anything, don't worry." I reply after a few seconds. My Dad nodded in response.

After a long pause Dad spoke again, "I haven't seen either of you all day either?"

"We were up late last night and just happened to sleep in."

"Oh. alright."

"Where's Matt's dad?"

"Sleeping."

"Figured." I replied, rolling my eyes as I got up from the couch. "Well, I'll talk to you later." I said before running up the stairs to Matt's room. I threw myself onto the bed before opening up my scroll.
