CHAPTER 10
"All boarding flight..." Amy drowned out the PA system as she stood up, grabbed her bags and headed on the plane. Ten hours and endless amounts of fights later, the planes were finally clear to set flight. She quietly made her way onto the plane and found a seat by the aisle on the right side of the plane. She held her breath as Matt and the rest of the group boarded the plane. She blew out a breath of relief when Matt hesistated but decided to sit a couple rows up and in the middle section of the plane with Adam. Guess this is how it's going to be... She thought as she sat back in her seat as they took off.
Half way into the flight, Amy yawned at she looked at her watch and realized it was 4:27am. She tried to get comfortable in her seat as Matt looked back at her. When she couldn't, Matt started to get up when she stopped him.
"Don't." She said looking at him as she continued to try and get comfortable in her seat. He sighed, as he sat back down watching her. Matt turned to Adam, who continued to bop his head to the music through his headphones and tapped him on the shoulder.
"Wud up?"
"Ad, go sit with Amy." He said pointing back to her who didn't see.
"What?" Adam asked confused as he turned down his music. "I don't get it."
"Just, go back there. She looks uncomfortable and..."
"Well what am I supposed to do?" He almost shrieked. "Rock her to sleep?!"
"Well not exactly. But just go, and while you're there, talk to her..."
"Man, we're friends and all but I don't want to get in the middle of this. No medling." Adam said shaking his head.
"Adam please. Just, I dunno, think of something. Please." Matt pleaded as he took Adam's disc man from him urging him to go. "For me." Adam looked at him questionably.
"Fine. Only because it's you guys and I don't want you two apart." Adam said as they slapped hands and Adam headed to the back.
"Hey." Amy said looking up and smiled at Adam. "What's up?"
"Could I sit here?" He asked.
Amy raised her eyebrows at him. "Uh, yeah sure." She said as she moved over to the empty seat beside her so Adam could sit in the aisle and watch Matt. "So what's up?"
"Couldn't sleep. You?"
"Same." She said lying her head sideways on the back of the seat sighing.
"Here." Adam said raising the armrest and patting his lap. "Wouldn't want a sore neck now would we?" He said after seeing the confused look on her face. "Trust me, you'll sleep better." Giving in, she laid her head down and quickly got comfortable.
"Thanks." She smiled thankfully as Adam absentmindedly stroked her soft fiery hair. Amy got goosebumps as each stroke happened. God don't do this to me as she thought about how Matt would always do that when she would fall asleep on his lap while watching tv or something. He always kept a steady rhythm when he stroked her red locks, going from the top of her head, down to the very ends slowing down as he reached the tips, letting the last pieces of hair fall through his fingers. Adam sensing her uncomfortable-ness stopped and looked up at Matt desperately. He looked down sadly and jealously. Adam cursed knowing that this was a bad idea. Trying to move the uneasy feeling she felt, she broke the silence. "Adam," She waited for a response.
"Yeah?"
"Why'd he do it?" She soon realized that that just made it more uncomfortable, but it had already been asked, so now all she could do was wait for a response.
"What?" He asked nervously as Matt's head shot back to the two. He swallowed slowly as his throat went dry.
"You heard me." She said calmy. "Why'd Matt do it?"
"I-I don't know. Amy please don't drag me into this. You guys are both my friends and-"
Disregarding the last part, she asked again, "Why'd he do it? Don't say you don't because you do. Now answer me." She spoke softly but it was loud enough for Matt to hear. As she waited for his answer, she looked at her empty left ring finger and her eyes clouded with tears.
"A-Amy girl..." Matt looked at Adam and just looked at him blankly. Adam was nervous and starting to sweat at the situation he was in. He didn't want to screw up anything.
"Please answer me." Her voice was soft but desperate.
"I don't know why Amy. Honestly I don't know." He said looking up at Matt as if he was a stranger listening in. "He did something he shouldn't have and you have every right to be angry at him." Matt gave him a pained look but Adam continued. "He broke his word to you when he gave you that promise ring," He said touching Amy's empty left finger, "and he let you down. You kept up your end of the promise because you love the man more than life itself, and it looks like he didn't feel the same. That's why he did what he did." He spoke looking out into space and could hear the screams of betrayal from Matt's head. "But," He started again. "That's just it. It 'looks' as if he didn't feel the same. But that's where denial and reality start to mix and you can't tell the difference from the truth and from the lies you create to feel better and to try and understand more of what happened." He said as he took in a deep breath and was surprised when it quivered. "Matt, god the man is something else." Adam said with a light laugh. "He's such a dedicated and passionate person, you can't help but feel that same emotion rub off him and onto you. When I first met the guy, and when I met you and realized that you two were a thing, I was shocked. But, after I looked at you guys, I couldn't pair any two more perfect people together. You complimented each other's style, knew each other like a book and shared the same dedication and passion for what you both loved doing. Then as I got to know you guys even more, I saw that the reason you guys were so good at being dedicated and passionate was because you guys got practice on each other. You'd talk endless hours about each other, smiling and all, you two were just so proud of each other. That's how I feel with me and Alanah, and I know how deep the feeling goes. So now, to have that trust broken, laced with betrayal and anger, there's no pain greater than that." Adam said starting to get emotional at the fact that if that ever happened to him and Alanah it would be completely devastating, as it was to both Matt and Amy. "So when you ask me why Matt did what he did...I don't have an answer because I don't know the answer. You'd never see it coming, that's how shocking it is. But I know it was purely accident, there was no hidden meaning in it."
"I don't understand..." She said softly.
"Matt was totally wasted. It's not like he was sober and knew what he was doing. Matt's the most, 'perfect' guy if you will. Mr. Perfection to the Nth degree. He doesn't just screw up, everything he does is always well thought out. When he was drunk, that wasn't Matt. That was some guy in Matt' s body. The guy you and I both know, know that he isn't the type of guy to take anything for granted. He would never mean to break your heart or your trust in him." He said softly as he waited for Amy to say something but she didn't. Amy laid there soaking everything that Adam said, closing her eyes as tears escaped her eyelids. Adam felt her tears fall on his clothes and felt completely shaken up. Crying women always make men nervous, this was no acception. "Amy, don't think that Matt doesn't love you more than life itself because he does. You're the only woman in his life, and you'll BE the only woman in his life. This was just a setback..." He said feeling like her lost her.
Amy slowly sat up and wiped the tears away. She looked out the window and took in a shaky breath as Adam rubbed her back. Amy pushed his hand away as she stood up and ran to the bathroom. Matt shot up out of his seat but Adam just as quickly got to Matt and stopped him.
"I'm so so sorry..." Adam said scared, "But you have to let her deal with this without you." Matt gave him a look of betrayal as if to say 'how dare you' but it wasn't meant to come off like that. "See Matt! I told you! I didn't want to get involved but you insisted and you see what happens?! Don't ever ask me to do this for you again Matt." Adam said mad at the thanks Matt gave him.
Slowly but surely, Matt's actions were taking their effect on everyone as the dagger went in deeper, everyone drifted farther and farther apart from each other. The tension between them was so strong, that would it be able to break the bond that held them together? All anyone could hope for that it wouldn't, but as each passing moment went by, their friendship deteriorated piece by piece, one person at a time.
