ELEVEN!

LIFE&MESSAGES!

ANTHONY DIDNT SAY A WORD TO Monroe in the uber and she felt like she was going to be sick to her stomach. She moved a bit closer to him, grabbing his hand with her own. When he gently squeezed, she felt a bit better, resting her head on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry about him," she muttered low enough that only he could hear, trying her best to get him to look at her but Ant kept his head straight. "I'm not mad, Monroe. I just think he has no boundaries," Anthony answered honestly, finally turning to look her in the eyes as she nodded in agreement. "He doesn't."

"How'd you guys even become friends?"

She blushed at the question, not wanting to lie but the truth wouldn't help the situation either. "Before we started dating, like when I wasn't sure what we were, I just fucked around and sent him so stupid dm. I commented on his picture a few times — but that was before. I don't condone that flirting shit anymore."

Anthony could tell from her voice that she wasn't lying but it still hurt him that she was flirting when they were on the verge of dating and so he removed his hand and turned around to look out the window. He didn't bother to move her head off of his shoulder. He wasn't really mad, just hurt.

"I'm sorry," she whispered, finally pulling her head away him to rest it on the back of her seat. She didn't have anything else to say to him, she had fucked up and she would accept that. That was on nobody else except for herself.

When the uber finally pulled up to their house, Anthony out without waiting for her and disappeared into the house. She lagged back to wait for Chase, sighing when he threw an arm around her shoulder. "Ant's just sensitive. He really likes you, Monroe," Chase told her and she couldn't help but feel like she was being scolded.

"I know. I don't even like Mattia like that!"

Chase shrugged and walked into the house by her side, sitting on the couch as she sat besides him and pulled her legs into her chest. She was furious after that whole thing. It was so stupid for Mattia to call her like that — they'd never even spoken on the phone before. If Kairi has called her, that would've been a completely different story.

She pulled her phone out and texted her friend, sighing when he didn't even bother to answer. She was fucking up left and right and it was all coming down to the same person each time.

Mattia Polibio.
