They exchanged numbers before Amy left, seemingly happy. As she drove, she called Jeff on her cell.
"Hey babe, you still coming or what?"
"Uh, yeah about that. Sorry Jeff, looks like I can't make it after all. Tomorrow or something...sounds good?"
"Uh, yeah sure. But what's going on?"
Amy frowned. "I actually have a date tonight."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"I didn't know Matt was coming back so early. He told me he'd be back by at least midnight or so. Why didn't he stop by?"
There was a long pause. "I have to go." Amy rushed before hanging up.
For some reason, she was afraid to tell Jeff about her not being his future sister-in-law like they all thought. She reminisced back as her and Jeff would stay up all night in the hammock in his backyard talking about getting married someday. Jeff had always been one of her best friends who she could always go to. They talked about hair dye, clothes, shoes, music, anything that she always called him her gay best friend. She'd change in front of him and all that girly stuff and he'd act as if he didn't care, which he really didn't. She was just so comfortable with him...nothing really mattered. She could be naked and things would still be cool.
She remembered when they got into talking about getting married. Jeff had told her how Matt's perfect proposal would've gone. Amy felt shivers up her body at the thought. It was so magical and fairy-tale like that Amy prayed everyday that the next day his proposal would present itself. It never did.
Matt finally landed in North Carolina, surprisingly early. It was now 9:00pm as he exited the airport and headed on home. He sang loudly in his car as he drove down the highway, not really caring about the other drivers around him. He sang in and out of tune, bobbing his head to the beats.
Finally reaching home, it was 12:00am. As soon as he walked in, he saw loads of Amy's stuff everywhere. *I forgot how much of her stuff was still here...* he mused as he locked the door and went to pick up some of her thrown around clothes and other belongings. He brought them up to his face, taking in her familiar scent. He could almost feel her presence in the room once again. Quickly, he finished up cleaning up before grabbing the phone to call Jeff.
*Ring ring*
"Hello?"
"Hey Jeff."
"Matt? Aren't you on a date right now?" Jeff asked confused.
"No, I just got home. Are YOU on a date right now?" Matt retorted sarcastically.
"But-" He thought for a moment. "Amy said she had a date tonight that's why she couldn't come over. I assumed it was with you you dumbass."
"I'm at home, sitting on my bed, talking to you. No date."
"Then who's she with? Do you know?" He asked frantically.
"You probably misunderstood her." Matt reasoned, doubt slowly rising through his body. "Think hard Jeffrey, what did she say?" He said slowly.
"No, Matt what's going on?" Jeff asked seriously.
"I don't really know."
"Well do you at least know where she is?"
"Jeff, if I did, do you really think I'd be talking to you right now?" Matt asked annoyed.
"So you don't?"
"Jeff!" He replied aggravated. Matt hung up abruptly, before standing up and slowly pacing back and forth. *Hmmm...* he thought, *where could she be right now? *

Amy and Joey laughed as they walked up the stairs to her house. She fumbled with the keys a little before Joey steadied her hand. She looked up at him, but he focused on the task at hand. Finally getting the door opened, he held it open for her. She stood in the doorway, leaning against the doorframe as that uncomfortable silence fell upon them.
"So..." She said awkwardly shifting her weight.
"So...I guess this is it. I had fun." He said shrugging his shoulders. "I guess this is good night." He said going in for a hug but was greeted with a soft kiss on the cheek instead. He instinctively touched the warm spot and looked at her. He smiled before stepping back, "I'll call you." He said as he walked down the stairs.
"I'll be waiting." She replied before closing the door and leaning against it.
