I'm Sorry(a Matthew Espinosa fanfic)

Chapter 8

I woke up, again, around 7 am. I looked for Matt and he was no where to be found in my room. I quickly left my room to look for him and I found him sleeping on the couch right next to my room.

I let him sleep because he's had to put up with me these past couple of days. So I just went to the kitchen to get myself some breakfast, because in this town, when someone dies, the whole town pitches in to help that family by not making them cook and they bring over a ton of food.

As I was walking into the kitchen someone was walking through the front door. I didn't know who it was, but I know my grandpa did. The lady walked in with what looked like a casserole.

"Hi sweety. I just wanted to drop this breakfast casserole off before I went to work." She said with a sweet genuine smile. "Thank you so much." I said and she pulled me into a hug , then handed me the casserole and left.

It startled me when Matt said, "What was that and what was all that about." He was standing in the doorway to the kitchen from the living room.

"I don't know, but I like her. She brought food." I said as I took the tin foil off of the food and served myself a small portion.

Matt went over and grabbed a plate and some casserole and followed me into the dining room.

He sat across from me. "Layla, I'm really sorry about last night. I didn't mean to snap at you like that, but when you talk bad about yourself, it just makes me so mad. You're perfect just the way that you are and I don't want you to change one thing about you just to please other people." Matt said breaking the silence.

"It's okay, Matt. I overreacted, I shouldn't have stormed off like that." I said as I patted on the seat next to me so ho would come sit next to me.

As he moved he almost dropped his plate, but luckily he caught it before anything fell off. "You got lucky, Espinosa." I said, still laughing.

"No I didn't! I'm a ninja." Matt said with a complete straight face, which made me crack up even more. "Yeah okay. Whatever you say Matthew." I said super sarcastically.

A/N: Sorry this is super short and that it's still kinda slow. I have a bunch of chapters written up so I'm not exactly sure how many I'll be posting tonight.
