Matt had always been good at controlling his temper when it came to Charlie, and somewhat when it came to everyone else. It wasn't to say that he didn't ever show his anger to Charlie, just that he never let it get beyond a little yelling. He'd been in this situation before, where he was angry with Charlie and fighting hard to keep himself from lashing out. But when Charlie hit him, Matt felt something inside of him snap, and he reached out to wrap his hand around her slender neck, pressing just hard enough on her neck that he knew he would leave a bruise.
"Do not ever hit me again, do you fucking understand me?" he growled. He squeezed just a bit tighter. "You must really want me to just kill you, Charlie. And I really don't want to do that. But it would be so easy. I'm so much stronger than you Charlie, you seem like you've forgotten that. All I'd have to do is squeeze a little tighter. Just like this." He looked into her eyes as he pressed even tighter against her windpipe, but released the pressure after only a few seconds.
"Now, I don't give a fuck what you want, we're going to take a shower, and then we're going to bed. In our bed," he added. He gripped Charlie by the elbow and dragged her upstairs, shoving her into the bathroom. "And tomorrow, we're going to finish our conversation about your job and school. I'm sure you'll see my way eventually."
