Chapter 17 *
A few days pass and they are now at Chicago for a house show. Kirsten has still been giving Matt quizzes, much to his dismay. After the signing, Kirsten's nightmares have returned. She hasn't had a good night sleep since, neither has Matt. Kirsten was so fed up one day she pretty much said she was going home. That didn't happen because everyone begged her to stay and let them help her.
Jeff is getting ready for his match when Matt bursts into the locker room.
"She is driving me nuts!"
"Take it easy Matt. What happened?"
"I swear these quizzes she keeps on coming up with…UGH!" Matt throws a near by towel onto the floor.
"Matt…Sit down. Listen to me; she is going through so much right now. I think the quizzes are the only things keeping her sane right now. Just be patient." Jeff had to laugh, he was giving Matt advice, talk about role reversal.
"I just don't know how much more I can take Jeff."
Kirsten is on her way back to the boys' locker room. She left her bag in the room and she needed some caffeine. She hears Matt and Jeff talking and she stops and listens.
"Matt…"
"No Jeff, it is that bad. It's like she doesn't like me anymore. It's like she just enjoys trying to change me."
"Matt, listen to me. When she went back to Jersey, you were a mess. Can you honestly tell me that you wouldn't be as bad…or worse, if she's gone?"
"Right now Jeff, I'd really bring on a break right now."
"You don't mean that."
"If she doesn't like how I am…why doesn't she just leave me?" Matt sits down and puts his head into his hands.
Kirsten bursts threw the door. Both boys jump at the sudden interruption. They both knew she heard what was said. She grabs her backpack and her jacket and heads for the door. She goes to leave but a sudden burst of anger surges through her. She throws her jacket to the ground and stares at Matt.
"Ya know, I really should leave your sorry ass. I don't need of this shit. I keep on asking myself one I stay with you. I honestly can't think of any good reason except for the fact I love you, you stupid ass!" Kirsten storms out of the room, leaving a stunned Matt to deal with what just happened.
