Matt tries to help Malcom and Tril but ends up making it worse (this was during tour)

Third POV

The triplets and others just finished one of their shows and were at a hotel to rest. Matt, Malcom, and Tril decided to take a trip to the grocery store, since it was right next to the hotel and they needed more supplies. They all bought snacks for everyone and some individual things for themselves and their roommates (Matt was buying some stuff for him, Nick, and Chris since they were in the same hotel room and Malcom and Tril were buying some stuff for themselves since they were in the same room. Idk if I had to explain that but I did).

After they paid for everything, they exited the store with a bunch of bags in hand. While Matt was only carrying one paper bag of groceries, Malcom was carrying two bags and Tril was carrying two bags and a liter of milk in hand. Matt felt bad since he was carrying the least amount of stuff. 

"Um I can help you guys if you want" Matt said, being in the back of the two

Malcom and Tril looked at each other. Even though they didn't know as much about him like Nick and Chris, they both knew how clumsy he was and how he wasn't necessarily the strongest.

Malcom specifically remembered that one time in the gym when he asked Matt to spot him. Matt ended up getting distracted and didn't even realize that his friend was about to get crushed by the barbell. He wasn't even able to lift it up so he had to call Chris, who was nearby, to lift it up for him. Malcom never trusted Matt in the gym again. 

They were gonna deny the offer since they knew Matt was probably gonna drop or complain about them being to heavy, but Tril would much rather not hold two heavy bags in the same hand. 

"Here you can hold this" Tril handed him the liter of milk, since it was the smallest and lightest

Matt reached for it as Tril was handing it to his hand. The jug was a bit wet from not being in the cooler. It was a bit too wet cause before Matt could fully grasp it, Tril let go of it and it slipped out Matt's hand immediately and bursted onto the parking lot ground.

"Shit!!" Matt jumped as milk was splattered on his shoes and shins

Malcom and Tril both groaned loudly

"What the fuck Matt. Are you for real right now?" Tril said annoyed

"I-I'm so sorry it was an acci—"

"Thanks a lot of wasting our money and food dude. If you decide to be dumb and drop shit, at least drop your own shit than someone else's" Malcom yelled at him

"I didn't mean to I promise, I'm so sorry, I can clean it up and buy you guys another milk" Matt said

"No, leave it to me and Malcom to fix this mess you caused. Go scurry back to the hotel before you make it any worse" Tril said angrily

Matt could feel tears build up in his eyes

"But- oh ok... I'm sorry" Matt walked past them

As he was walking away, he heard mumbles coming from Malcom and Tril. He put his hood on as tears were leaving his eyes. They were slowly staining the paper bag that was underneath his chin. 

"I cant believe I fucked up so badly. I'm so stupid they hate me now" Matt thought to himself

The walk back to his room felt like forever as he was trying to avoid eye contact with everyone he passed. After that long elevator ride, he unlocked and entered his room.
