Amelia's POV:

"Well look who it is." I heard from behind us.
I turn to see Shawn standing behind us. I let go of Matt's hand and ran to Shawn.
"Shawn!" I said jumping into his arms.
Shawn held me up as i hugged him tightly. Wow, he got pretty buff.
He then put me down as he went over to Matt and gave him a bro hug.
"How have you guys been?" Shawn asked.
"We're pretty good." I answered.
"What about you? I mean weren't you just on tour?" I asked.
"Yeah i was, actually. I'm dropping another album next week." Shawn said smiling.
"Shawn thats great!" I said.
We then all went back to our apartment because Matt and I offered Shawn to stay with us for a few days, so he'll be staying with us.
I've really missed Shawn. Ever since i left Magcon with Matt a few years ago, Shawn and i stayed in touch and basically became best friends.
"Okay so here is where you will be sleeping." I said showing Shawn the guest room.
"Thanks Amelia." He said.
"I had a long flight I'm just gonna go to bed." Shawn said.
I then shut the door and then walked back downstairs to Matt.
I didn't see Matt anywhere downstairs. Maybe he went to bed? No. Matt never goes to bed this early. He's probably taking a shower.
Just then Matts phone rang. I looked to see who is was, and the name popped up as Melissa. Melissa? Should i answer it? I mean Matt answers my phone all the time so i guess i can answer his.
"Hello?" I said picking up the phone.
"Hey um is Matt there?"
"Yeah let me get him for you."
I know exactly where I'm going with this. I mean it might not go as expected but i can at least try.
"Hello?" I said in a deep guys voice.
"Hi Matty!" She squealed.
"What's up?" I said doing my best to mimic Matt.
"Oh nothing. I was wondering when you wanted to hang out again, baby?"
Baby? This bitch is not calling him baby. Wait, again? Why did she say again? Is Matt cheating on me?
I started to get really emotional.
Just then Matt walked into the room, shirtless with wet, scraggly hair. I guess he was in the shower.
"Who are you talking to, babe?" Matt asked walking towards me.
I then hung up the phone.
"Matt, we're honest with each other right?"
"Of course baby."
"Then who's Melissa?"
He looked surprised.
"Oh um she's just a friend." He said.
"Matt i know that's not true. Now tell me who Melissa is."
"She's my friend! Am i not allowed to have friends?" He shouted.
"She's not just your friend! She called your phone and i answered it-" Matt cut me off by shouting
"Why were you answering MY phone calls?"
"You answer mine all the time!"
"NO I DON'T!"
"ARE YOU SERIOUS?!? YES YOU DO!"
"STOP BEING RIDICULOUS!"
"Matt. Please stop. I don't want to argue with you, just please tell me who Melissa is."
"I ALREADY TOLD YOU! SHE'S JUST A FRIEND!"
"STOP LYING!"
"HOW WOULD YOU KNOW I AM LYING?"
"SHE CALLED YOU BABY! FRIENDS DON'T CALL FRIENDS BABY!"
Matt then became silent.
By this time i was in tears.
"Listen to me. Don't say anything just hear me out." He said.
"I met Melissa at a party a few weeks ago. She wanted to "hook up" but i told her i already had a girlfriend. She's been calling me ever since we met. Amelia, please trust me. I didn't do anything with her, there is nothing between her and i. I love you and only you."
I couldn't find the words to say. I mean it would be hard to make that up, right? He's telling the truth, right?
Amelia you have to believe him. He's your boyfriend, you're supposed to trust him.
"Amelia?" Matt said snapping me out of my thoughts.
"I believe you, Matt. I'm sorry i overreacted."
"Yeah you really did." Matt whispered to himself.
"What?"
"Oh erm nothing."
"I heard you. You know what i don't even care." I said.
I then walked upstairs to mine and Matts room, and got ready for bed. I am just really stressed right now, and I'm tired of all this fighting.
I was then laying in bed as Matt opened the door. He then laid down next to me.
"Babe, I'm sorry for all of this. I'm sorry that we've been fighting." He said.
"It's okay. I'm sorry too."
"I really do love you Amelia."
"I love you too Matt." I said stroking his cheek.
Matt then put his arm around me as we then cuddled up next to each other. We then fell asleep in each other's arms.
