Arriving at Vanessa's house wasn't the good happy feeling it usually was. This time it was different. This time I would have to go talk to my brother who probably didn't want anything to do with me or Justin and that scared me more than anything.

My brother and I were really close, we alway have been. I've always looked up to him and told him almost everything. I don't know why, I guess I just trusted him a lot.

Thinking back to the way he reacted, I felt that same dread wash over me as I reached forward to knock on the door. I never wanted it to end up like this. I never wanted to make matt upset.

"He's going to forgive you" Justin said quietly, bringing me back to reality. I turned to look at him and sent him a small smile.

"I know." I breathed out. He was right, we had such a close bond. Neither of us had ever stayed mad at each other for more than a day. Of course this time it was different, I was dating his friend who was older than my previous boyfriends so there was the possibility that it would take longer for him to forgive me but I tried to push that to the back of my mind.

I knocked three times on the large door. My heart rate seemed to speed up with every second that I stood there. Justin gave my hand a small squeeze to try and calm my nerves, letting go just as the door opened.

"Hey Em" Vanessa said with an apologetic smile in her face. It was then that I realized that I would now have to go talk to my overly pissed brother about my new boyfriend who also happens to be his new friend. It was honestly the worst feeling but I didn't want him to be upset with me any longer.

Vanessa opened the door wider to let us both in.

She was in her pajamas but she still looked like something out of a magazine. I honestly didn't know how Justin wasn't drooling over her.

"He's up in my room" she said closing the door behind us.

"Justin, do you mind staying down here while I talk to Matt?" I said feeling kind of embarrassed.

"Of course." He said kissing my forehead gently. "It's going to be okay Em." He said sweetly.

I started up the stairs feeling my heart speed up with every step I took. I got to Vanessa's bedroom door and knocked softly before entering the room.

Matthew was sitting in her bed, looking out of the window of her bedroom. Once his eyes settled on me, that same pissed look from dinner seemed to reappear, making my heart sink.

"Get out." He spat. His words felt like knives being shoved into my heart. I ignored his words and said nothing, knowing that he was just letting his anger get the best of him.

I took a seat next to him and looked over at him. He sad nothing. I noticed his hands in his lap were wrapped in bandage. His hands were all bruised and bloody, he must have punched a wall or something.

The bandages weren't wrapped properly so I reached over to re-do them.

"Emily." He said bitterly making me look up at him. He looked angry and sad, knowing that I caused it broke my heart.

"Matt just let me help you." I said softly. He said nothing so I went back to his hands, this time he let me. I made sure to be extra careful knowing how sore he must be feeing.

"I should have known better." He said bitterly.

"What?" I was confused, surely he wouldn't have assumed that Justin and I would get together. Not even I did.

"I should have known Justin was just using me to get to you. It's just like Nathan and every other fucking person in this world." This time his words were more sad than pissed. As soon as he mentioned Nathan everything seemed to clear up for me.
