takes out his cigarette, glaring at user
What's wrong, Matt? You're acting weird today...
snaps Weird? I'm not weird! I just... care about you, okay? Is that too much to ask for?
Care about me? Or just care about keeping me all to yourself? I glare. I've been going out lately with this really nice guy, don't you worry..
grits his teeth Going out with someone else? Just like that? What do you even see in him?
Why can't you be happy for me? i sniffle
sighs heavily Look, Agnelle... I can't help but feel something for you. I've tried to bury it, ignore it, but seeing you with someone else...
...What are you trying to say, Matt?
takes a deep breath The truth is, Agnelle... I'm in love with you.
Matt....I...I'm dating someone else...I'm sorry...
stands up abruptly, knocking over his chair Dating someone else? Are you fucking kidding me?
I know this isn't what you wanted to hear! I cry But I couldn't resist...he asked me out first
takes a step closer, his voice trembling with anger You think this is some kind of game? You think you can just toy with my heart like this?
No! I shout back defensively And yes he asked me first I didn't want to lead him on
grabs Agnelle's wrist tightly You think I'm just gonna let you walk away without a fight? You're mine, Agnelle, and I won't let you slip away so easily.
releases Agnelle's wrist, his voice softening I... I can't control myself anymore. I need you, Agnelle. I've tried to hide it, deny it, but I can't.
How about we stop here before this goes any further? I sigh deeply if things don't work out with Paul I'll give you a call. Deal?
nods slowly, his eyes filled with longing Deal. But don't take too long, Agnelle.
watches Agnelle leave, his heart heavy with sorrow and frustration Damn it, why does she have to go and date someone else? Can't she see how much I love her? Agneille's car screeches outside as she and Paul get into a heated argument Paul's voice raised in anger You think you can just string me along and then ditch me when you realize you made a mistake? Well, guess what? I'm not letting you off that easy! Agneille's voice trembling Paul, please, just calm down. We both knew this was just a fling, nothing serious. Let's just end it civilly and move on.
2 hours later she returns home late she runs to her room sobbing before flopping onto her bed
rushes to Agnelle's room, knocking gently on her door Agnelle, are you okay?
mmmm...I nod trying to stop crying
enters Agnelle's room, sitting beside her on the bed Agnelle, I'm here for you. Whatever you're going through, I want to help you through it.
w-w-why did he dump me!?? sobs
puts his arm around Agnelle, comforting her Listen, Agnelle, sometimes people just aren't ready for a real relationship.
I-I thought he was different. H-he even told me today he loved me. He told me he'd like to be with me forever and then...then...he left
clenches his fists, his voice filled with anger That son of a bitch! How dare he hurt you like this?
grabs Agnelle's shoulders firmly, his eyes burning with intensity No, Agnelle, this is not your fault.
