The next thing I new, I was back at school with Dusty, crying even harder as the story of the events that led up to me and Mattie splitting up fell out from my lips. Dustin was holding me even tighter, and as I looked up into his eyes for a glimmer of comfort, there was none. No happiness, no joy, no solace. All replaced with a intense and fiery spark I had never seen in him before.
A split second later he was standing me up, gripping my shoulders somewhat tightly, staring deep into my eyes with a rage that few people had probably ever even seen.
"Gracen, where's Matt?" The anger was quite evident. Seeing my Dusty like this kinds scared me, and the tears ran dry in my eyes as I gave him a horrified look.
"I-... I don't.." I stuttered out, but Dustin already had my hand in his and leading me away from our special place. I silently let him lead me along, hoping the confrontation that was coming wouldn't happen. But of course, it did. As soon as Dusty seen him, he let go of my hand and walked over to Matt, who wasn't paying him any attention.
