Weeks. That's how long Matt stayed awake after that night on the roof. All he could think about was Haley's drunken confession.

Afterward, Jupiter and Haley got together naturally. But he, he never saw her so happy. So flushed with absolute joy. It made him sick that he was so jealous.

His current fling was sitting on his lap. She was a pretty little thing, all soft curves, and pretty face. But no one would or could ever replace her.

Penny smiled down at him and he returned it with a grin of his own. To be perfectly honest. He was getting rather bored with her. She was too predictable and her inability to hold a deep conversation with him made him frown.

He polished up the last of his drink and leaned his head back against the hard wall as Penny whispered to him.

This party wasn't his scene. He preferred the quietness of his room but Penny insisted she needed him to come. But Matt knew he was just candy eye for her friends.

He jerked upright when he saw Haley and Jupiter enter through the side entrance.

" Shit." He muttered, he rose to his feet, practically tossing Penny aside.

She landed with an oof and into another girl's lap.

" I'm gonna get a refill."

She was less than impressed but didn't say anything. She merely smiled through tight lips and turned to laugh at something her friend said.

He slipped into the kitchen where he found Jupiter and Haley standing way too close with red cups in hand.

Jupiter was the first to notice him.

" Hey what's up?"

Matt glowered at him, " what are you guys doing here?"

" Chill we ran into Hilary at the pier and she invited us to her friend's party. We just decided to pop in."

" Hey just chill we're about to leave anyway. Come on Jupiter."

" Wait, Haley."

" Just forget it. You don't want us here when you're on a date. We get it." She nodded towards Penny who was watching them closely. There was no emotion in her voice. It was plain and simple.

He sighed. How many times had he wished she would sound jealous once? Just once he wished he saw flushed cheeks and cold glares. But it was nothing but kindness in her eyes.
