After class, Matt came to my house and we went to the kitchen, I got two cans of pop and we sat at the table.
It was quiet for a while until Matt said: "I don't trust him", I looked up at him. I was about to say something
when he continued, "There's something up with him, I can feel it… What?" I must have had a confused or funny
face on. "Well… You don't even know him. You can't just say that. Anyways, what makes you say that?" I said.
Matt lowered his eyes to his hands playing with his pop can, "What?" I said. He shrugged, "Never mind" he
finally said. I grabbed his hands between mine and squeezed them; he looked at our hands then my face. "He
just happens to show up in town when someone dies…" he said, I let go of his hands and said, "Dies? What are
you talking about?" Matt got up and turned the living room TV on, I got up and jumped over the back of the
couch as I realised what the news was talking about. "So, to recap today's story, 18 year old Sally Brooks was
found dead in the back yard of Mystic Falls High School. The police haven't found the time of death or how it
happened but they told us that her neck was nearly mauled out." said the newsman. I hadn't realised I was
squeezing Matt's hand too tightly until he yelled "Ow, Elena! Let go!" I let go of his hand and he said "Thanks.
Believe me now?" I looked at him and saw that he was really stressed "I obviously believe that someone, as in
Sally, was killed… Why Sally?" I said that last part more to myself. "But I still think your being silly about
Damon." Matt threw his arms into the air and groaned. Then he shrugged his shoulders and said, " I guess your
right. I mean, he seems nice. Okay you win." He said then grinning at me. I laughed and grabbed the remote
from him, I flipped threw the channels, not wanting to think about Sally, until I got to the movie channel and we
watched a Spiderman marathon.
