Matthew Espinosa Imagines

Loved

*Maya's POV*

I sit in the V.I.P. room for MagCon, with my friend Beatrice, as we wait as impatiently as ever.

Yesterday we came here as well, but we weren't able to meet nor greet our idols because time ran out.

Well, that's not true. Beatrice met Nash, her favorite, but I wasn't able to see my idol.

Now, today is the last day of me being able to meet, and today even more V.I.P.'s are here.

I clutch my stomach, so scared that I might not even meet my favorite member, Matthew Espinosa.

What if I legit wouldn't be able to meet him? I clutch my stomach tighter, feeling pathetic as I was clutching the Matthew Espinosa hoodie I was wearing.

Beatrice leans down to my sitting posture and grips my shoulder. "Don't worry, Maya. He will meet you today."

I press my fingers to my temples stressfully. "That's what you think" I growl.

Beatrice sighs, gives up on trying to cheer me up, and plops down beside me, twirling a piece of her hair.

Suddenly, a security guard enters the waiting room with eleven boys behind him.

"Form single file lines in each station" he orders, gesturing to each line for each guy.

I jump up and lunge for the Matt line, but when I land, I am last in line. I growl loudly and stomp my foot, making some people stare, but I just mentally flipped them off.

I wait for what seemed like forever as people kept jumping into Matt's lap and kissing his perfect cheek.

I've already dealt with the shock of seeing him in person so now I was a bit over it. Now I was just preparing for the shock when we touch for the very first time.

I grip my hair tightly as the line moves steady and slow, taking its absolute time and driving me insane.

One hour later I am second in line. I finally had hope and was squealing on the inside, as the girl in front of me took her absolute time with Matt.

She comfortably positioned herself on Matt's lap and then kissed his cheek as Matt smiled his gorgeous grin in the picture that snapped.

The girl didn't leave although even though Matt gave hints. Matt was too sweet to actually shove her off his lap and have the security guard escort her away, so he just nervously tried giving hints.

I tried even stepping up a few times to try to interfere but the security guard just pushed me right back.

The girl starts fiddling with the collar of Matt's shirt, giggling as she did.

Now I was ready to explode.

Right when I was about to yell at the girl or the security guard, someone barks "Alright V.I.P. time is now over! Please escort yourself out of the doors!"

I felt my knees buckle and my eyes water. My throat felt dry and like it was being choked.

I wanted to scream from anger but my throat was clogged. So I was picked up by Beatrice as she carried me out and kept whispering "I'm sorry, I'm sorry".

I wrestle from her grasp, seeing Matt still at his station and talking to Carter. I wanted to just run over, hug him, grip him to me.

Suddenly Matt's eyes skirt over my face and our eyes lock, my blurry teary eyes glued to his perfect, glistening hazel ones.

He frowns when he notices my tears and stands, reaching out for me as he started walking towards me, but the sea of girls washed over me and then I was out of the room, just like that.

Beatrice awkwardly and silently carried me to our car, still apologizing for me from her sympathy.

I stayed silent and acted dead as we drove back to the hotel. Once we are there, Beatrice tries to force me inside, mostly because it was raining out, but I insisted on staying on the hotel's front doorstep.

I sit there and cry in the rain like in the movies, feeling like shit.

I deserved to meet him, didn't I?

Or maybe the universe somehow thought it was best that I never get to hug my hero.

My tears match the rain, as my hair drooped, soaked, along with my clothes.

Someone walks up the stairs beside me, seeming in a hurry. I close my eyes and shield myself from the stranger, not even wanting a stranger to think I'm pathetic.

Suddenly, the person stops in their tracks and turns toward me. Oh great.

The person sits beside me suddenly and I finally force myself to look at the stranger.

I almost fall off the steps from how shocked I was.

I was locking eyes with those hazel ones that saved me from suicide, made me stop cutting, and kept me alive.

Matthew was sitting right beside me and his eyes held 100% sympathy.

"Hi gorgeous" Matthew smiles as he reaches his hand over to me and rakes my hair out of my eyes.

I try to find my voice and it finally clicks. "M-Matthew?" I stammer.

Matt grins and wraps his arm around me. "And you are?" he asks, petting my hair.

"M-Maya" I answer, then clear my throat to stop the pathetic stammering.

Matt suddenly kisses my temple, and I shiver. "Beautiful name, Maya."

I was too happy to speak, so Matt continues. "You were the girl crying at the meet and greet, right?" Matt recalls with sad eyes.

I bite my lip and nod, ashamed. "Kinda" I answer.

Matt sighs. "Why were you crying, gorgeous?"

I gulp, swallowing the lump in my throat. "Because I wasn't able to meet you...twice."

Matt pouts and hugs me close to him. "How about we make our own meet and greet?"

As exciting as it sounded, I bit my lip. "Are you sure? You could just go inside with Carter and Nash, instead of sitting out here getting soaking wet" I say, gesturing to Matt's soaked clothes and hair.

Matt smiles and pushes hair out of my eyes once again. "I wouldn't leave such a beautiful girl alone out in the cold."

Matt holds me close to him as he pulls out his phone and snaps a picture of us together. I smiled as good as I could as Matt kissed my cheek for the photo.

After giving Matt my number, he sent me the photo.

Then, suddenly, Matt pulled me onto his slippery lap and kissed my cheek again.

"How are you today beautiful?" Matt cheekily asks.

I smile and lean into Matt's chest. "Better" I smile.

Matt suddenly smirks. "Do you know what you deserve?"

I frown. "No?"

Matt then presses his lips shockingly against my own, making my gasp but then give in instantly and kiss back.

Matt pulls away after eight seconds and then entangles his hand in my hair.

"Thanks for supporting me Maya. I'll never forget you" Matt says with a deep gaze into my eyes.

I smile as Matt kissed my jawline. I had a feeling although that Matt and I would know each other a bit longer.
