Suggested song: Perfectly wrong by Shawn Mendes

I am right in front of the door of Matt's apartment.

I climbed the stairs slowly and measuring every step, to delay this moment as much as I could.

I feel too nervous to be finally about to confront him.

I'm sure that after hearing my version of the whole story he will understand how little that gesture caught on camera was and that Jeff doesn't mean anything to me.

The truth can hurt, but this time it will make things better.
I have done nothing wrong.

I remind myself that I'm not going to hide anything.

I'm pretty confident that when I'll walk out of this building later today I'll have my boyfriend back.

I ring the bell door and Matt opens the door a few seconds later.

Was he watching me from the peephole or what?

The look on his face suggests that he's not that happy to see me. Or at least not as I thought he would.

I was expecting him to smile, to hug me or to tell me that he missed me, but he only lets me in, without saying a word.

I hear his voice after a week when he asks if I want something and I opt for some tea. This cold atmosphere is what weirds me out the most.

I had never felt uncomfortable with him as I'm feeling now, watching his back while he heats me up a mug of water.

My mouth is already dry. It happens every time I have something important to do.

I drink quickly burning my tongue, but his eyes are impatient and I don't slow down.

I would have guessed we were going to sit on the couch but he walks past it and heads to his bedroom.

I follow him noticing that this place is always tidy and organized.

He sits on his bed and starts talking.

'Well.. I called you here so that we can eventually speak' He sounds a little uncertain and I'm relieved that it's not just me.

'Yes, I'm glad you did. I have to explain you everything and..' Words start to roll out of my mouth, but he suddenly interrupts me.

'V... please, let me talk first' he says.

I stop speaking and I'm pretty shocked by his stance.

He sounds distant and his eyes avoid mine.

He has always been very open and loving with me since the first time we met at Zane's.

'That day when I watched the video... I can't deny it. I felt so disappointed and... frustrated. I felt betrayed because I trusted you and you were doing behind my back what I specifically asked you not to do.'
