this chapter includes: nothing crazy, just crying, and talking about a breakup.
When matt got the text from his girlfriend that they were over and he had to pack all of his things and leave before she got home, he was instantly heartbroken.
As he packs his things, he calls both of his brothers, Chris at first. "No Matt, I don't have room here I'm sorry dude." Then Nick. "Oh no I don't, why what happened with you and Talia?"
Matt sighs, but remembers about his best friend's little sister, Sienna, yeah, she still has that 2 bedrooms so surely, it'll be easy to ask?
He hesitates slightly, knowing it's been at least 3 years since they've talked. "Fuck it" He thinks before dialing your number and pressing the green button, letting it ring.
Sieanna does her college work, keys clicking as she types on her computer, words flying on the screen as she writes the needed essay due at the end of the week. She pauses once she hears her phone ring.
Matt? After 3 years? What could he possibly want?
"Hello?" Sieanna says softly waiting for an answer.
"Sisi hey, I know it's been a while since we talked..." He pauses before continuing. "You still live in that 2-bedroom apartment?"
Sieanna pauses at the nickname, surprised he remembered before answering the question.
"Uhm─ yeah I do, why do you ask?" She questions before getting an immediate answer.
"My girlfriend broke up with me, Nick and Chris don't have room in their apartments and i have nowhere to go." Matt's voice instantly shakes.
"So, you want to stay here with me?" she asks in a soft, concerned tone.
"If that's okay with you?"
"Of course it is Matt, just give me a heads up when you're on the way here." Sieanna reassures.
"Okay, I definitely will." he sighs before hanging up.
Hours later, Matt carries boxes outside to his car in the driveway. He didn't own much, just some clothes, soaps he needed, a comb, toothbrush and toothpaste, and colognes.
Matt packs things into the back of the black SUV before closing the trunk and closing the door beside him as he starts the car.
As Matt drives, he calls Sienna.
"Hey im on the way" Matt starts.
"Okay theres a key under the mat infront of my door to get in."
Matt hums and hangs up, setting his phone to the side.
Matt looks up at the tall complex of apartments as he pulls in to the parking lot. He walks up to the elevator, pressing floor 3 to get to Sieanna's apartment.
Lifting the mat, he finds the gold key, picking it up slowly and unlocking the door.
Sieanna looks up at the door from her computer, eyes widening at the sight of matt.
"Holy shit." she says internally.
Matt smiles slightly. "Sisi, it's been awhile, you look.. different." he mumbles, looking her up and down.
Sieanna nods. "Yeah so have you." she responds, looking at his arms, thin but they do have some muscle.
"You got tattoos i see?" Sieanna points to his left arm.
"Oh these? Yeah i got these like 2 years ago." He nods rubbing the inked arm.
"They're really cool. especially this one" She says pointing to the eeyore tattoo.
"I love eeyore." Sienna smiles slightly
"Me too! He's literally my favorite character out of all of them in Winnie the pooh." Matt adds quickly.
They both carry boxes into the apartment. After all the boxes are stacked inside, Sieanna shows him around.
"This is your room, you can decorate it as you want. The bathroom is down the hall to the left, and my room is down the hall to the right." She explains as Matt nods to her words.
He shuts the door behind him, setting his bags and boxes down onto the bed before he flops down beside them, eyes welling up with tears at the thought of Talia, before letting out a soft sob into the pillow.
Sieanna is sitting on the couch continuing her essay before pausing, hearing the soft cries.
She sets her laptop to the side, walking to Matt's room, knocking softly.
"Go away." Matt yells into the pillow, but loud enough for Sienna to hear.
"Are you crying?" Sieanna questions.
"Uhh— no! I'm not!" he gets up to wipe his tears.
Sieanna opens the door, looking at matt carefully.
"You were. What's wrong?" Sieanna sits beside him on the bed, looking at him with a soft and concerned gaze.
"Talia. My ex girlfriend. She broke up with me and i dont understand why."
Sienna frowns at his eyes tearing up.
"Well don't cry, she lost someone truly special and worth it." she rubs his shoulder for reassurance with a soft smile.
Matt looks up at her, eyes still watery.
"Y'know your too nice to people." he mumbles before looking back down.
Sieanna places her index and thumb on his chin lifting it up softly.
"A little bit of kindness to a stranger can go a long way"
Matt stares into her eyes. An emerald, green color that he always adored, even when they were kids.
He realizes he hasn't answered Sieanna, looking back down to hide his blush.
"Why are you blushing?" Sieanna giggles out.
Matt looks back up at her, his stomach fluttering with butterflies as his mind goes haywire with thoughts of "Oh her laugh is adorable." but he immediately snaps out of it.
"I can't like my best friend's sister, we just met again after 3 years, and I just gotten broken up with!" Matt thinks internally and not realizing panic is evident on his face.
"Matt? You okay?" Sieanna questioned in a slight worried tone.
"Oh me? No no I'm good just─ just thinking." he looks to the side.
Sieanna looks at him with a confused expression
"Well what're you thinking about?"
Matt freezes, his mind pauses with all thoughts about Sieanna.
"Uhm─ I uhm─ n-nothing really! Just talia.." he stutters out knowing damn well he's a liar.
Sieanna smirks, knowing he's lying.
"Your a liar." she blurts
Matt pauses looking at her.
"Plus why would it matter what I'm thinking." Matt blushes heavily.
"I'm just curious." Sieanna shrugs. "You don't have to tell me what your thinking"
Matt looks back down as Sieanna walks out of the room with a small wave.
Matt flops back on the bed, staring at the ceiling, thinking about Sieanna.
Boy will this be difficult to live with her.
