maddie sturniolo: the triplets younger sister♡

44 - fracture

(matt's pov - at the vet)
poor trevor
he whimpered as the vet gently lifted his paw up. i felt horrible for not paying attention to him, i could've prevented him falling if i wasn't so fucking eager to gather my family together when they didn't even give a shit about me.
"so yes, it seems as if he has a minor fracture to his arm, but it's nothing serious. we just need to wrap it up in a cast and he should be good to go!" the doctor said, giving a friendly smile to us. i smiled weakly back, my mind still racing.
i went over to join my family in petting trevor, when my phone beeped.
i got my phone out to check what it was, maybe it was chris or maddie, but it wasn't. it was an unknown number.

Unknown number

hey, is this matt?

hmm. that's weird. i hoped this wasn't a fan messaging because my number had been leaked or something.

Who are you?

i waited, getting slightly nervous

it's macy brown

oh! macy!

Oh hey! It's so nice to hear from you!
How's Nebraska? How are you?

i was thinking about asking how she got my number, but i just assumed that maddie had given it to her. there must've been a reason why she was suddenly messaging me, and i think i could sense what it was.

honestly?
nebraska is fucking shit. i hate it here. i wish i could come back to boston. you don't understand how bad it is

Omg seriously?
What makes it so bad?

everything.
school, my new house, the people, it's SHIT

Awe I'm so sorry to hear that
We've been missing having you around, especially Maddie

i miss you guys so much too
and maddie. omg.
i literally have no friends at all in this new neighbourhood.

How come? Are the people not nice?
Or is it just a shit bunch of people

pretty much both
i just really struggle to like.. make new friends.. i'm not sure how i made friends with your sister but i've never had such a good friendship like that and i really really miss her
i'm not sure why i'm messaging you, i just assumed you're good at giving advice for things like this
maddie said that you're the most trustworthy person in the world

awww
maddie actually said that?
that shit got me gassed up
i smiled, continuing to type

Awe
No it's absolutely fine don't worry about it, I'm here for u and I understand things are hard right now, for you and Maddie
That kid hasn't gone to school in like.. weeks

ik, she told me :(
i wish my parents could've just gone to nebraska and i could've stayed in boston w u guys
i feel like i'm never gonna be happy again

Hey. Things are gonna get better. 10000%.
Change is a fucking weird thing, but it happens for good reasons. And everything happens for a reason.
And that's gonna sound like a whole lot of bullshit because you're basically starting a whole new life out in Nebraska, but I promise you that if you give it time it will be okay. Everything will fall into place I swear
