POV: Phil

I knew something’s wrong…

As soon as Nyle cut the call without even giving me a chance to reply, I got suspicious. Me and Gus was hanging out in my house when I got a call from Nyle, the way he talked and asked about Matty’s dislikes just doesn’t sit right with me.

“I guess he’s on to something Gus” I said to her who was lying on the bed watching her phone

“What do you mean?”

“Yeah, something’s not right, we should go check on him” I said talking my dad’s car key

“Wait, Phil I don’t understand… What do you mean?” she asked sitting up looking worried

I told her that something’s off with Nyle and that I need to check on him. I didn’t told her about Matty’s phobia.. As I said, its not my place. I know I shouldn’t have told Nyle too, because its Matty  should decide who should know or not to know…but as Nyle said he was concerned about her and was confused… I didn’t know what to do except to tell him about her phobia… now I’m regretting it.

Its not like I don’t trust him, he is my best friend nothing can change it and I trust him for my life… but.. but.. I don’t know. All I know is that something’s wrong and I should go check on him.

Within minutes we were on our way to his home. After few minutes of driving, I came to his house quickly parked the car and opened the door without even knocking, the sight in front of me got me worried

“Phil… Gustie… I can explain” Nyle said were Matty was lying on the couch

“Explain what? Why is Matty sleeping here… wait is she actually sleeping?” I asked confused and went near the couch after Gus,

Nyle looked terrified, but why?

“Matty… Wake up…” Gus tried waking her up

“Phil she’s not waking up.. Matilda…” she told me simultaneously shaking Matty

I sat down on my knees and tried to wake her up.. but I got no response from her. Then I noticed her hoodie was stained with something creamy… Though its not obvious it can be seen.

“What is this.. ?” I asked pointing the stain when Gus smelled it…

“I guess its ice cream…” she said looking at me…

“What…?” what the hell is happening

“Yeah.. it smells like ice cream.” She said confused by my terrified expression and added,
“Why, What happened?”

“What the fuck is this Nyle?” I shouted finally seeing the man of the show

He was standing his hands holding each other like he is scared shitless… he didn’t said anything just keep looking at the ground

“I think I asked you a question Nyle… Explain me What the hell is this? What did you do to her?” I asked nearing him for every sentence, I couldn’t control my anger.. I couldn’t accept the fact that Nyle would do something like this..

“Why are you shouting Phil, what happened please tell me… is she gonna be alright?” she asked on the verge of the tear after knowing something’s wrong

“She has a Phobia of Ice cream Gus, he called me to ask about her dislikes, I told him about this and asked him not to give her Ice cream”

“Nyle…” she called him, to which we got no response… He’s still looking at the ground…

“What the fuck..” I said and was about to get the shit out of his mouth

“Phil, we need to get her to the doctors first” Gus said holding me back,
