"Must use the bathroom." Jaime said. I laughed as he jumped up and walked away quickly. I picked up a fry and bit it. "What was Matt doing in your apartment?" Johnny asked. "We had to go over a project for work." I said. "Oh yeah? What's the project?" He asked as he took a bite out of his hot dog. "Okay. Geez." I said. "Why am I not surprised?" He said rudly. Jaime walked back to the table and sat down. "You always look pissy." He said to me. "Cause everyone puts me in a pissy mood." I said glaring at Johnny. Jaime looked at Johnny, then at me. "What?" He asked me. "Are you pissed cause he misses you?" "Dude!" Johnny said. Jaime laughed. "Whoops." "So, tell me about Matt. I know you were bull-shiting me." Jaime said. "What?" I asked. "He is my boss." "Most peoples boss' aren't hanging around their employee's apartments." Jaime said. I sighed. "Goin for an older guy hu?" Jaime said laughing. I got up, put my jacket on and stormed out of the diner. I rushed back to my apartment and called Ryan. He said he would come over and hang out. I turned on the tv, but nothing good was on. There was a knock at the door within minutes. I rushed to the door and opened it. It was Ryan. I hugged him and he laughed. I grabbed some Sour Cream & Onion chips and we plopped down on the couch snacking on them. "I slept with Matt." I confessed. He looked at me with big eyes. "Do you even like him?" He asked. I nodded and he laughed. "But I'm not sure it can work." I said. He rolled his eyes. "If you like him, MAKE it work." He said. I layed down and rested my head in his lap. He put his hand on my stomach. I sighed. "I had the wierdest dream last night." I said. "What was that?" He asked. "Matt was rich. . . and. . . important. We had a huge house. We were married and we had two kids. It was weird." I explained. He laughed. "Shut up." I said, elbowing him in the arm. There was a knock at the door. I sighed loudly. "Probably my jerky brother and Johnny." I said. I got up and walked to the door. I opened it slowly and saw Matt standing there. "Hey." I said. "Can we please talk?" He asked. I looked back at Ryan and he nodded his head smiling. I rolled my eyes and turned back to Matt. "Sure." I said, not moving a muscle. "Out here?" He asked. I heard a girl scream from the stair well. Matt and I turned towards the stairs. I was surprised to see Gila making her way up the stairs, dragging three bags behind her. "Oh my god, girl." She said. She smiled really big, let go of her bags and hugged me tightly. "Matt." She said smiling as she looked at him. "Hi." He said. He smiled, then looked at me. She opened the door and threw her bags in. "Who is that?" She asked quietly as she pointed at Ryan. "Uh. . . that's Ryan. You met him last time you were here. And I don't think you need to whisper. He's looking right at us." I said laughing. Ryan stood up. "Oh the dorky guy." She whispered in my ear. I looked at Matt and shrugged my shoulders. "Woo!" We heard. It sounded like someone was running up the stairs. "Fucker!" We heard. I recognized the voice and knew it was Jaime. I took Matt's hand and walked him into the apartment. Jaime and Johnny came running in after us. "Ryan?" Johnny asked me looking confused. Jaime started helping himself in the fridge. Gila came running out of my bedroom. "What the fuck." Jaime said when he saw her. "What? I'm visiting my best friend. What the fuck are you two doing here?" She asked. I was on my last nerve at that point. I didn't want any company at all. I was ready to talk to Matt, but I couldn't with everyone there. Mostly though, I just wanted to hang out with Ryan alone talking with peace and quiet. Johnny and Jaime started tossing popcorn at eachothers mouths laughing. Gila opened a bottle of wine and started pouring everyone a glass. I looked at Matt. He just kept looking at everyone, then looking at me very confused. "I didn't invite them." I told him softly. He just laughed. I sighed and sat down on the couch. Matt sat down next to me. He put his hand on my leg and sighed as he leaned his head back into the couch and closed his eyes. I did the same.
