{ Manny's P.O.V }

"What is going on?" Brody questioned.

He pulled over and just stared at me, I was furious. I held my phone in front of me and just showed it to Brody. In that moment, all I had etched in my brain was that picture I got sent. Steph & Matt kissing. Not only was I sent that. But a text along with it.

Matt: Sorry Manny, after going back with Steph I realised how much I missed her. Whatever we had is done, I am much happier now. Please move on because I love her more than I did you. Goodbye hopefully forever.

Ouch. Actually no, I felt like I was shot in the heart almost a million times.

Brody looked shocked more than anything.

"The audacity that woman has to do that," He clenched his fists.

I was confused, Steph didn't seem like the bigger threat in the picture (Mateeeeee u dumb fucked)

"What are you talking about? Matt clearly did this." I spoke.

"Are you fucking stupid?! Do you realise that Steph has a heavy number of things she can use as blackmail?" He began, raising his voice. "Do you think that Matt, whom when I last saw him, was tied to a chair in their walk-in closet, would magically have his phone back, have free reign of the house and forget you so easily?" He finished.

Wow. I really am stupid. (No shit sherlock)

"Wait. Did you say tied up in a walk-in closet?!" I shrieked.

"Oop," He realised his mistake.

There was one of the many facts Matt had told me that I remember as clear as day that spiked worry in my head.

"Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. BRODY START THE FUCKING CAR AND MOVE YOU ASS FORWARD!" I Screamed.

"JEEZ! What is the bloody rush?" He retaliated, starting the car and getting back on the road.

"HE IS FUCKING CLAUSTROPHOBIC!" I answered I was just so riled up thinking that she had the power to use that fact against him so brutally (Matt being claustrophobic is actually a true fact lol we looked this shit up weeeell according to Escape The Night Wiki aha)

Brody's eyes widened and no words fell out of his mouth.

*A Few Moments Later*

Of course, this one fucking time, there was traffic up ahead.

"Turn down here, this should put you out on the other street we can get to Matt's house by," I spoke, trying so hard not to raise my voice too high.

As he was turning, Brody's phone rang.

"Shhh, It's Steph," He muttered.

"Hey Steph, everything okay?" He asked.

"Everything has planned out perfectly thanks for asking, he is finally mine now that Manny should have taken the bait, don't think I'll be hearing from him for a while." She bragged. "So, as a celebration and because I have no worries at the moment, I want another trip to the mall, I expect you at mine in 10 minutes tops, I'll be waiting out front, Mwah bye,"

The call ended. That fucking bitch. Once again, she has played with my feelings and ruined Matt's rights to be happy. Fucking hell.

"You know what this means right?" Brody quickly broke the silence.

"What?" I asked.

"If she is out the front, she will see you," He said as he pulled over. "You gotta get out, I am sure you can get to the house from here, I need to make sure nothing is suspicious, it'll ruin my chance."
