One Last Time 》Matt Espinosa {Sequel}

five.

❥stephanie.

I wake up rather early in the morning, get dressed for the day, put on some makeup and head out of my apartment. I walk to the nearest cafe, order a frappe and a breakfast sandwich and then take a seat at a table near the window.

After my little phone calling incident with Matt last night, the first person I called after that was Alexis. I told her everything that happened yesterday, including seeing Nash and Cameron. She was so surprised and the first thing she asked was if Cameron was still as hot as he was last time she saw him. I started laughing and told her that yes, he doesn't look any different from before, only that his hair is a little shorter.

When I finish eating, I decide whether or not I should go back to my apartment. As much as I want to go lay back in bed and watch netflix, I choose not to. It's a nice, sunny morning outside so, why not? 

I walk out of the cafe and make my way down the streets. It's not as crowded out in the city today since it's a sunday and everyone is at home, which is nice. As I walk, I begin to think about what Nash and Cameron will be doing today. A little part inside of me wants to go back to their hotel just to see them again, but part of me is also nervous. Which confuses me because they're my good friends and I should have nothing to be nervous about. But it's just everytime I see them, it reminds me of Matt. 

I push the thoughts out of my head telling me to not go see them again, and make my way over to their hotel which is a few blocks down the street.

When I walk into the lobby, I'm surprised to see Hayes sitting on the couch. As I walk up to him, I hesitate at going to say something because it looks like he's taking selfies on his phone. When he sees me he quickly puts his phone down, startled.

"Hey Hayes." I laugh. It's always embarrassing getting caught taking selfies in public, so I understand the pain. 

"Oh hey." His blue eyes look up at me.

"Um, do you know where the rest of the guys are?" I ask, looking around the lobby. 

"They should be down here any minute now." He says. I take a seat on the couch across from him and wait as he continues to talk, "You're coming to Vegas with us next week, right?" He asks, glancing back down at his phone to type something.

"What?" I ask, confused. 

"Didn't Nash ask you to come with us? He said he was gonna text you." Hayes says, still not looking away from his phone. 

Suddenly, the elevator door dings open and out comes the loud group of boys. They're still as loud as they were back when they were in Magcon. I wouldn't be surprised if all the hotels they stay in probably get so many complaints about the loud boys in the hall. 

"Steph!" Nash yells when he sees me, "I knew you'd come back sooner or later." He says once he gets close to me and I smile. 

"So you actually want to hang out with us today?" Cameron asks, teasing me because of yesterday. 

"Of course! I miss hanging out with you guys." I pout.

"That's not the only thing you missed." Carter smirks, looking back and forth from me to Nash. I just laugh and roll my eyes. Yes, me and Nash had some sort of thing back in Florida. But now, I really don't see Nash as anything more but a friend. I still have my heart set on one guy, but that guy has his heart set on someone else. Story of my life. 

"Alright." Nash claps his hands together, ignoring Carter's comment. "What do you guys wanna do today?" He asks and looks around at all of us. 

Nobody answers because we're all clueless and have no idea what we want to do. 

Nash laughs, "C'mon Steph, you know this city better than all of us. What are some fun things to do?"

"Um.." I shrug, "We could walk the Brooklyn Bridge? It's a really nice view up there." I suggest. I've been on that bridge so many times and it still amazes me everytime I'm on it. 

Everyone looks around at each other nodding in agreement. "Sounds good to me." Hayes shrugs and stands up. 

...

"Bro, I'm so scared." Cameron says, gripping tightly onto Nash's arm. We continue to walk further down the bridge and we end up being really high above the water. 

"You're such a baby!" Nash laughs, pushing Cam's arm off of him. 

"Dude don't do that! What if I fell off!" Cam shouts. 

I start laughing way harder than I should, "Cam you're not gonna fall off, it's completely safe."

"Are you sure?" He asks, finally stepping away from Nash.

"Positive." I nod my head. 

He eventually runs ahead to catch up with Hayes and Carter in front of us. They all have their phones out taking pictures and videos, while me and Nash just watch, laughing to ourselves. Nash puts his hands in his pockets as he starts to walk slower, making me slow down also. The wind lightly blows my hair, making some strands fall in my face. 

"So, uh.." Nash begins, "I was going to text you last night, but I didn't because I'd rather talk to you in person." He laughs.

"About what?" I ask, already having idea of what he's going to say since Hayes just blew it in the hotel. 

"Well, in a couple days we're leaving New York." He starts off, "All the guys are going to be meeting up in Las Vegas and I was talking to Cam and we think it would be cool if you came with us."

"Really?" I ask. I've never been to Vegas, but I've always dreamed of going. But now since I'm old enough and have enough money, I could totally go without having to get my parents permission. Plus, I'm always so bored sitting by myself in my apartment.

"Yeah I think it would be fun!" He smiles, "I mean, if you don't want to then I totally understand." He stops walking and faces me. 

I turn to face him also, "Who's gonna be there?"

"All the guys." He shrugs and begins naming them off, "Jack, Jack, Aaron, Matt, Cam, Carter, Hayes, Taylor and me probably. Shawn's on his second world tour, so he can't."

"Matt's gonna be there?" 

Nash laughs and looks down, "Uh, yeah." He says, awkwardly.

After a few seconds of thinking about it, I immidietely know my decision.

"I'll come." I say, quickly.

...

I realize that Matt isn't in it a lot right now because it's still the beginning. but don't worry, he'll be coming in soooonnnn!! :)
