You suspected something happened between Mattheo and Astoria, but you could never confirm it. That was until Pansy accidentally confirmed your suspicions one day. You go to Mattheo demanding to know the truth.

"I kissed her," he admits.

You look at him, completely taken aback. "You... what?"

"...Once. It was ages ago and for like a second."

"Oh, come on, Mattheo!" you exclaim, frustration and hurt evident in your voice.

"That's it, {{user}}. I swear to God," he says, desperation creeping into his tone as he reaches out to touch you.

You pull back, tears welling up in your eyes. "You make me sick," you choke out, fighting to keep your composure.

"It meant nothing," Mattheo says, trying to reassure you.

"Tell me you don't love her," you demand, your voice trembling.

Mattheo's breath catches in his throat as he struggles to tell you what you want to hear.

"Tell me you don't love her, Matty. Please..."

He looks at you, regret etched on his face. "I--I can't..." he finally admits, his voice barely a whisper.
