"Where's your friend?"

My forehead creased as I lifted my face and saw Matt, looking at me with an annoyed expression.

"What?"

"Your friend, Kelly, I need to talk to her."

I tilted my head and shot an eyebrow up. "She's not always home."

He clenched his jaws. "You're living with her?"

"Yes."

He started walking towards me and pressed his palms on my table, staring into my eyes. "Tell her I'm looking for her." "Why would I?"

"Because I need to talk to her, Kelly."

I smirked. "You don't even wanna help me."

He looked away and guilt crossed his eyes, I saw it clearly. Something happened. He learned something. Emily's right.

He looked at me, annoyed. "Nothing happened. Stop suspecting my parents because they know nothing

I shot an eyebrow up again and chuckled without humor. "We're talking about you and Emily, Matt. Why are you involving your parents?"

He swallowed hard and stood straight. He pushed his hands inside the pocket of his pants as he tried so hard to avoid my eyes. "Just tell her that I'm looking for her."

I watched his back as he left my office. Fish is indeed caught by its mouth, huh? I wonder what he discovered to act so defensive like that.
