"Should we head back home?" Clara asked. She looked tired.
"Yes. Thanks for everything, Ma." Matt said. He gave her a hug. She smiled. "You're eating the leftovers from breakfast." She told him.
"Oh." He laughed. "Sorry about that."
"I'll get over it." She said.
Conrad put all the leftover pizza into one box and we went back to their house. "Movie night!" Clara shouted as Matt and I started to head upstairs. I heard my cell phone start to ring from his bedroom. "I'll be right down." I said. He smiled and went back down the stairs as I ran up to his room. I picked it up quickly without even checking to see who it was. "Hey, sweetie." It was Nick.
"Hi."
"I'm in town." He said.
"What?!"
"I'll be there in ten minutes." He said.
"I'm not home this weekend. I took a little trip to Montauk with some friends." I lied.
"And is there a reason you failed to mention that to me?" He asked sounding upset.
"I'm sorry. I didn't know you were going to be coming to visit." I said.
"I'm your boyfriend, Sam." He said.
"I know."
"So you should tell me when you go on trips and stuff, so I don't have to worry about you." He said.
"I'm sorry. I will next time. I just hadn't thought about it." I said.
"What friends are you with?" He asked.
"A group of friends from work." I said.
"Okay."
"I'll call you tomorrow when I get home." I said.
"Alright."
"Bye."
"I love you." He said.
"Love you too." I said.
I waited for him to hang up before I did. I felt horrible. I sat down on the bed. "What am I doing?" I asked myself trying not to tear up. I dialed Gila right away.
"Girl!" She said excitedly. "Wait till you see your place!"
"Gil, I don't know what I'm doing." I said.
"What do you mean? Are you okay?" She asked sounding concerned.
"I don't know."
"What's wrong?"
"Nick called me. I feel horrible now." I said.
"You guys broke up. He'll get over it." She said.
"We didn't break up, Gil." I said.
"What? Sam!"
"I know. I'm horrible." I said.
"Maybe you better pack your shit and get back here." She said. "I seriously assumed that you had spoken to Nick before you left with Matt to see his family."
"I don't think I can leave until tomorrow." I said.
She hung up. I felt even worse. I knew she didn't like what I was doing. I didn't know what to do. I layed back on the bed and closed my eyes.
