"I thought- you said earlier that..." His face paled as he began to doubt what it was that Elena had meant then. But it had sounded so clear-cut and he knew Elena wasn't the spiteful type, not to the people she cared about, her friends. Come to think of it.. wasn't Elena wearing a different outfit earlier?
Oh. Oh shit. "Oh my god that conniving, manipulative bitch!" The last part may or may not have been yelled as he began to pace back and forth, hands running through his hair frantically.
