Chapter 65

“Look, you guys,” Matt began slowly, trying hard to keep his voice even. “I’m not one for beating around the bush. You all know that. I’m the poster child for laying it all out there.”

“Laying what out?” Martin mumbled.

“What?” Lexie asked, straining her ears in Marty’s direction.

“Never mind. Look, Lex, I know Martin here has it bad for you. He’s had it hard for you since ninth grade.”

Marty’s head shot up, eyes boring a hole into Matt’s head. “Matt, what the fuck?”

“I’m sorry, but you’re miserable. And you’re only set to continue on the same course, or cut us out of your life completely.”

He shook his head vehemently. “You have no right,” Martin said.

“Is that true?” Lexie asked, staring first at Martin and then Matt across the noisy cafeteria.
