Chapter 22

Once Matt had dressed again he went into the other room. The 3 guys were sitting around the room, and they all looked up at him as he entered the room.

In an annoyed voice Matt asked, “Do I meet the dress code now?” Jay chuckled as Jeff sat staring at Matt whom he thought didn’t look much better then he had before.

“I think you look fine...” Adam said as he played with a yo-yo.

Jeff laughed and Matt turned and glanced at him.

“Jay?” Matt asked as Jay threw a sock at Jeff.

“Matt, dude you look fine, don’t listen to Jeff, he’s just angry because he has bad taste...” Jay said chuckling, but got interrupted by the phone then.

Jeff had started to get up to come and probably hurt Jay, but he plopped back down instead.

Jay went over and answered the phone as Matt looked at himself in the mirror.

Matt wasn’t really paying attention to the conversation between Jeff and Adam, but suddenly Adam asked a question that startled Matt. “So Jeff what did she say about going with us tonight?”

Matt tried to pretend like he wasn’t listening but he was. He heard Jeff reply softly, “Ohh she’s coming. And a...I think a....you know who will have a good time!” Jeff practically whispered, but Matt’s hearing was really good.

Matt listened as Adam chuckled. He stopped listening then and stood there staring at himself in the mirror wondering who “she” was. Matt tried to think. Who could “she” be? He sighed trying not to let it bother him.

Again he heard something that made him listen again. Adam asked another question, “Hey Jeff...” he whispered pausing, “Does you know who know yet?” Adam whispered. Matt was so confused, what was going on? What was everybody talking about!?

Confused and some what angry, Matt turned so suddenly even Jay who was still on the phone, sitting on his bed facing the group looked up startled.

“Matt what’s wrong?” Jeff asked looking up at him.

“What’s going on?” Matt asked looking from Jeff to Adam and back again.

Jay who obviously sensed something was wrong, said something quick into the phone and hung up. He got to his feet and was by Matt’s side in a matter of seconds.

“Matt you okay buddy?” Jay asked setting his hand on Matt’s shoulder.

“I wanna know what’s going on now!” Matt demanded angry that he didn’t know what was being talked about.

“Matt,” Jeff said standing, “What are you talking about?”

“God, I’m not deaf! Who’s coming with us tonight? Why am I always the last to know about these things?” Matt demanded taking a step closer to Jeff and Adam.

“Matt chill nothing’s going on, what are you talking about, nobody said you were deaf, do you wanna explain to us what’s wrong?” Jeff asked staring wide eyed at Matt.

“You want me to chill?!” Matt asking throwing his hands in the air and grinding his teeth.

“Yeah I do!” Jeff said yelling in the same tone as Matt. "Now what are you talking about?" Jeff asked as he met Matt's eyes.

“Who’s she and why doesn’t anybody tell me anything anymore? Who is you know who?” Matt asked as Adam stood slowly from behind Jeff. Matt for some reason felt furious and very angry and his head hurt and he just wanted to see Jessica, that’s all nothing else. He didn't even feel like going anymore!!!!!!
