I get off the phone with Ruth. She sounded strange, like she was on the verge of tears. I sigh. I'll get it out of her tonight, I'll figure out whats happening tonight.
I text Charlie to tell her Ruth is coming.

Ruth's POV

xxxxxxxxx

I walk up Rue's driveway to the mansion, feeling a bit better then I was this morning. I brought the game. I don't know why, I just had a feeling I should. I ring the door bell, and wait for someone to answer. Matt opens the door, and smiles. I get butterflies in my stomach, and smile back. "Oh, hey Ruth. Rue and Charlie are upstairs." He says. I nod. "Okay, thanks." I say, walking inside. I can't help smile to myself. Who am I kidding, he's hot! I've had a tiny crush on him since I was little, which still sticks to this day.

I walk into Rue's room, and am greeted by three loud voices yelling my name. "Whoa, Jesus!" I shout, putting my hands up. "Tell me why you were weird this morning!" Rue yells loudly, her voice echoing around the walls. I shut the door. "Okay! Can I sit the fuck down first?" I ask, sitting on her bed. I pull the stupid cartridge out of my bag, and wave it in her face. "This." I hiss, staring at it disgustedly. Charlie takes it from my hands. "A game cartridge? Whats so bad about that?" She says puzzled, tossing it back to me. Matt walks in, leaning against the door. "Oh sure, Matt. Come in. I don't mind if you invade my privacy." Rue says, scowling at him. Matt smirks. "Cool, I'll keep that in mind." he says sarcastically. Rue rolls her eyes. "What do you want anyways?" She asks. "My rides gonna be here soon, and I'll probably be gone all night. I just want to make sure your not inviting anyone else, I don't want to have to clean up your mess after one of your twelvie parties." He smirks. Rue looks at him like he just asked her to become a prostitute. "What?" She says flatly. He laughs. "I'm kidding. I'm just telling you that if you throw a party, your cleaning up the mess." Rue rolls her eyes. "Can you please piss off now?" We hear a car honk outside, and Matt looks out the window. "Looks like my rides here. See yous tomorrow." He walks to the door, but the cartridge in my hand catches his eye. "Whats that in your hand?" He asks. I look at it. "Oh! Its... just a game cartridge." I say tossing it on the bed. He nods. "Majoras mask?" He asks. I nod. "How'd you know?" He laughs. "It says "Majora" on it." I look at it again. "Right. Never mind. Why?" I ask.
He shakes his head. "I don't know. When I was in collage my roommate bought a cartridge like that from a garage sale. He went a little crazy and started hallucinating stuff about the game. He even made a blog post about it. If you ask me, he was off his face." He laughs. "Anyways, I gotta go." he walked out the door. I stared shocked at where he stood before. Matt was Jadusable's roommate.
