"i feel pathetic in so many ways
how can you just stop loving me in a matter of days?
you're breaking my heart, babe"Sólbjört quickly turned around and ran into the bathroom where she made sure to lock the door before sitting down on the edge of the bathtub and changing her camera-view to her face so Michelle could see her.
"Michelle, I'm so sorry-"
"You really don-"
"That you wasted your time on that piece of shit, you deserve so much better"
"Thank you..." she said quietly. "I just thought it might take a bit longer for him to get over me... Maybe I just exaggerated what's between us, he might have just seen it as a silly fling. Like Grease but without the ending you know? Or anything other than the intro really"
"Michelle, I don't know what that jerk is doing right now but I do know that he really does love you"
"He has a very strange way of showing it"
"Yeah he s-" Sólbjört started saying before they were interrupted by a loud knock on the door.
"Hey Sólbjört are you okay? I saw you running in here, do you need any help?"
It was Matthías. That caring and affectionate asshole.
"I AM FINE BUT PERHAPS YOU NEED SOME HELP WITH KEEPING YOUR SHITTY WALNUT-SIZED BRAIN FROM MAKING TERRIBLE LIFE CHOICES?!" Sólbjört yelled back through the door.
"I'm sorry??? Did I do something?"
"YOU KNOW DAMN WELL WHAT YOU DID YOU ROTTEN PIECE OF HAGGIS! JUST GO BACK TO YOUR DAMN BIMBO AND LEAVE US ALONE!"
"Us? I di-"
"JUST FUCK OFF MATTHÍAS!" She yelled loud enough for probably the whole house to hear. It seemed to work though as he didn't make any further attempt to talk to her.
"I'm sorry for that" Sólbjört said to Michelle.
"Thank you so much, you're the best friend I could ever wish for. You really didn't have to do that though. I mean, you're in a band with him so you have to see him everyday, plus you've know him for years longer than you've known me"
"Yeah but gals before pals, hoes before bros, uteruses before duderuses and all that. You're my bestie and I'm definitely not gonna side with your stupid man who fucked up. I love you girl"
"Aww I love you too" Michelle cooed. "It's a shame we're both heterosexual"
"It damn sure is, we'd be the coolest couple otherwise"
"Oh definitely, like one of those couples who goes on spontaneous trips and attends cooking-classes together and somehow already know everybody" Michelle said making Sólbjört hum in agreement.
"At least we're both single together now"
"Well...uhm..." Sólbjört stuttered while blushing furiously. "I'm kinda seeing someone...we're not an item yet but he's taking me out on a date this weekend"
"Oh my god, who is it?!" Michelle asked curiously.
"Ehm...Einar" she confessed, face redder than a tomato.
"Really?! I love that! Why didn't you tell me sooner?"
"I couldn't tell you sooner, he asked on the plane back to Iceland"
"I'm so happy for you Sólbjört"
"Thank you, w-" she said before once again being interrupted by knocking.
"Hi Sólbjört, it's Klemens. Matthías is really upset and I need to talk to you, can I come in?" he asked softly.
Sólbjört looked at Michelle who nodded in approval, before unlocking the door to let Klemens in.
"Thank you, is Michelle on the phone?"
"Yeah"
"So what exactly is going on? Matthías is a wreck and Michelle won't answer his calls, and I'm pretty sure the entire country heard your little outburst at him"
"He kissed another girl" Sólbjört replied.
"What? No he didn't. Not if you're talking about that Rebecca chick who came onto him just a while ago"
"But we saw them kissing"
"You saw her kissing him. I guess you two didn't stay long enough to see him push her away and publicly declaring his mad love for Michelle"
"Ohhh" Sólbjört and Michelle both replied in realization.
"So he di-
"No, he did not cheat on you" Klemens declared. "He hasn't even laid an eye on another girl since the moment you two first met"
"Oh my god, I can't believe he actually didn't cheat on me"
"Well that's good, right?" Sólbjört asked in confusion.
"Yeah...but, I didn't trust him not too"
"We both saw him kissing someone, it's okay. It was just a misunderstanding but everything is alright now"
"I should've known that he'd never do that to me, it's not like me to doubt our love. I can just feel the distance tearing us apart and it hasn't even been 24 hours!"
"Wait, what are you saying?" Klemens asked worriedly. "Are you ending it with him? Are you taking him back? Are you quitting your job to join a circus as a clown? I have literally no idea of what's going on inside your head right now"
"Me neither. I just really don't know what to do" Michelle sighed and looked at Sólbjört for some guidance.
"You know in your heart what is right"
