Toxic Love{Completed}

Chapter 13 : Matthew

Sasha opened the door, frowning, "What do you want?", she hissed, rolling her eyes. Matthew narrowed his eyes, he looked past her as Hov walked up behind her. He looked Matthew up and slowly, "So this is him huh?" Matthew smirked, "I was just about to say the same thing." He stepped inside the door, closing it. Nicholas and Kevin walked into the kitchen. Kevin extended his hand, "I'm Kevin." Matthew looked at his hand questionably, "Matthew.", he turned back to Sasha. She frowned deeper, "Disrespectful much?!", she crossed her arms, "That's one of the reasons Mom left your ungrateful ass." "Watch it Bey", Matthew sternly warned her, "That's what I wanted to talk to you about..." Sasha scowled at him, "Don't call me Bey, only Hov..."
Matthew interrupted her again, "So that's the name you're going by now. Sounds pretty childish to me. It's pointless to run away from yourself, it always catches up with you." "You of ALL people should know that huh?", she replied bitterly. "Can we talk about this in private?", Matthew asked in a softer tone. "No", Sasha sighed. Hov glanced at her before directing his gaze back to Matthew. "Please", Matthew replied softly. Hov tapped Sasha on the shoulder, "I wanna hear what he has to say", he whispered to her. Sasha rolled her eyes, sighing, "Come on", she grabbed Hov's hand as they walked to the sunroom. By now it was dusk dark. Matthew's mouth fell open as he looked around at the sunroom. "Damn." Sasha frowned, "Isn't there a rule about cursing around your kids?", Matthew smirked, "Yeah, the same rule that says you shouldn't curse around your parents." Sasha walked over to one of the chairs sitting down, "Aight, start talking", she said dryly. Matthew sat in the chair beside her, "What I did to you was wrong. And I'm sorry..", she interrupted him, "Well I guess that just makes it all better huh?", Matthew sighed, "This attitude is ridiculous. You're hanging onto the past like it's..." She interrupted him again, "Nigga you ruined my fucking life!", she hurriedly stood up as she spoke. Matthew looked up at her, "I know words won't fix what happened." Sasha scoffed, "Yeah." Matthew continued, "But I was hoping I could make things right between us...." Sasha looked angrily at him...

(Minus the phone)

"Like actual hell that's gonna happen."
Matthew sighed, "Bey, I get that you're mad, but I'm a different person now, and..."
"Don't give me that bullshit!", Sasha snapped, "I couldn't even be in a good relationship with anyone for years after what you did to me. I trusted you! And you betrayed that. You betrayed me. You wanna know how that feels?!" Matthew started to speak, "Bey..." Sasha slapped him. The sound echoed through out the room as tears streamed down Sasha's face, "All...All I ever wanted...was for you to protect me. That's all...You had one. Job. But...I don't give a fuck what you do. Just go. Just leave me alone." Matthew started to speak again, "Bey, I came here cuz I need a place to stay tonight at least until..."
"Did you not just hear me!! I said I don't give a damn! Just leave me alone!", Matthew tried to grab her hand, she jerked away walking back into the house. Matthew turned to Hov, "So, she picked you?"
Hov frowned, he stood slowly, "She picked a man. That's more than you'll ever be. With all due respect Mr. Knowles", he started walking away, "If there's any", he mumbled. Hov went back into the house, closing the door. He walked past Nicholas, who was standing by the door, he saw the expression on Hov's face, "Sasha got mad at me." Hov sighed before heading upstairs, he pasted Kevin in the hallway. Kevin stopped him briefly, "I'll take care of an extra room for the night. Just go be there for her. I knoe if it was me....", he paused, "Me and Nicholas understand if y'all wanna keep to yourselves tonight." He walked downstairs.
