Matt had been walking around the school, looking for Shasta, his current girlfriend. But once and if he finds her they might not be together anymore. Matt was angry because he had heard people talking about something that was written on the Rumor Wall in the girl's bathroom. He was worried. He wondered if it was true or not. Was it? Was it not? He didn't know what to believe, that's why he needed to find Shasta and get it straight from her. But what if she lies to him? Too many thoughts at once! So he just focused on the main question in his mind; Was what people were saying about Shasta and this Logan guy true? That Shasta had cheated on him with another guy? He was hoping to find out the truth soon. And if it was true about the two of them, then things were not going to go well. Matt was just roaming the halls, his hands in his pockets, his eyes darting across halls in that worried way..

Shasta was sitting outside her English class yet again. Now they were reading Milton, the guy who wrote Paradise Lost, and Shasta was a little more into than the teacher. Today was a big day for her, her last tattoo before the big pay raise. Very exciting, she was finishing hte final touches. Stretching her legs out she yawned lightly and tilted her head back against the wall.

Matthew peeked around a corner, and that's when he saw her, leaning against the wall, her legs spread out. Probably working on another tattoo sketch. He stood up straight and drew in a deep breathe. He was really going to confront her about it, but he was nervous. But he had to find out the truth from someone he [thought] he could trust. So he slipped his hands back into his pockets and he strode down the hall, casually, acting as if nothing was wrong. He came up to Shasta and he sat beside her, leaning over to look at her drawing. "Pretty." He said, his voice unusually quiet.

"Mattie!" She said with her usual smile towards him. "How are you sweetie?" Dropping the sketchbook she patted the spot next to her for him to sit and hold her.

How am I? "I'm.. not so good, actually." Just the thought of Shasta doing that with someone else made him sick. He felt like he was going to throw up, but luckily he didn't. But he was unusually pale. He had thrown up after hearing all the rumors. And his paleness was also caused by being worried.

"Well come, sit with me won't you?" She asked patting the spot next to her. Unlucky for Shasta she was unaware of all the rumors that seemed to be circulating.

Matt shrugged, and did as Shasta had said. He took a seat next to her, and he leaned his head back against the wall, avoiding looking at Shasta, afraid that her eyes would tell him what he didn't want to know as the truth. He scratched the top of his head, and he leaned his head over a little bit, only catching a glimpse of her. "Shasta..."

Shasta quietly, and quickly, moved herself into his lap. Putting her hand through his hair she caressed him lightly. "What is it sweetie?"

It seemed as if it took all his will power to wrap his arms around Shasta as she sat there on his lap. He took a deep breathe, and then let it out slowly. He was thinking of the right way to say it, but he realized, there was no right way to say it. So he just.. said it.. "There are rumors going around about you and some Logan guy. That you cheated on me by sleeping with him. And on crack, nonetheless. But I know it's not true because you told me, promised me even, that you would stop that. And I know you would never cheat on me, because you told me you loved me at one point."

Shasta's hand froze in it's spot. So it really had happened, it wasn't just a dream. "Logan is one of my clients. He came to me quite desperate, I was having withdrawls and bad, I couldn't even stand, Matt..." She stopped and tilted her head to the side so he couldn't see her tears. "I did a little bit of crack to ease my pain, apparetly it went a long way because I can't even remember what happened except for me and him starting to do something but he ran off. I think that little silent girl E something walked in on us." As hard as it was for her to tell him all this, she did because she loved him and because it was the right thing to do, even if it cost her everything.

This was the truth Matt didn't want to know. He didn't want to know that the worst had actually happened. No, he wanted to know that Shasta would never go behind his back and hurt him like this. He looked away from Shasta, and closed his eyes. It was too hard to look at her, and he felt that if he did, he too would start crying. "Wh..why? Why would you do this to me?" He said, his voice starting to break. He kept his eyes shut tight, not wanting any tears to accidently slip out.

"The withdrawls were so bad and you were never around to see my pain. I wouldn't let you see me at my lowest of lows. However, Logan showed up and I fuc*ed up, I'm sorry Matt, for what it's worth... I still love you." Shasta was definatly crying now and burried her head in his shoulder.

As Shasta buried her head in his shoulder, Matt had the intention to push her off of him and walk off, but he didn't do that. He wanted to, but then again he didn't, so he didn't do it. He let out a long, heavy, sad sigh. He didn't want to forgive Shasta for what she did. He was hurting so badly inside. But another part of him did want to forgive her. Because he loved her, even though at this moment he didn't want to. He didn't say anything, only kept himself from looking at her. Kept his eyes shut.

"Please tell me you still love me." Shasta said quietly against his shoulder. All she wanted was to be forgiven, to be on his good side again.

Matt finally opened his eyes, and he moved his head a bit, just barely looking down at Shasta. He then sighed again, and moved his head all the way, to where he was fully looking at her. He wiped his eyes for a second, and he tried to hold a straight face without frowning. "I still love you.. I just can't trust you."
