Summary: Matthew finds something hurtful on the internet.
Disclaimer: Clearly I own nothing and this is all made up crap.



Matthew doesn't spend a lot of time using the internet. He's a very busy man, also he just doesn't understand the fascination the world seems to have with it. Talking to faceless strangers, photos of cats, words spelled with odd letters, etalk. Now of it sounds amusing to him. But he knew you can't be alive today without spending a little time online so he does once and awhile. He's taken to goggling her name before his own. Her popularity seems to be growing, he's proud of her growing fanbase.

He found a site linking to the youtube video. He smiles as the video opens with The Kiss as she named it. The sweet smile Emma gives Will after they part still gets to him. Her adorable voice comes on and he watches as she talks and giggles about filming The Kiss.

"It wasn't intimate in any way... it was a show."

Something about the way she says that stinks him. He understands what she's saying but he doesn't like it. Too him the moment had been very intimate, even with the 30 crew members and Jessalyn lurking around. He'd loved every moment of filming that scene. Why was she acting as if she hadn't enjoyed it? He finishes the video, watching blankly.

Once the video ends he reaches for his cellphone, punching her number in without thinking about it. He bites down on his bottom lip as he waits for her to pick up. After five rings it goes to voicemail. He listens to her message before he hits end.

He redials the number. It goes to voicemail after two rings this time. She's clearly ignoring his calls. He listens to her sweet southern voice, once again he hits end before the beep.

He waits a minute before dialing again. It doesn't even ring this time. It just goes automatically to voicemail. He listens to the message once more. He takes a deep breath before the beep.

"Didn't you enjoy kissing me?"

He asks slowly and hits end. He puts his phone down on the table in front of him. His eyes lock onto the phone as he waits. He knows it's foolish, knows she'll probably never call back and if she does it won't happen anytime soon.

But still he sits and waits.
