"isn't it annoying that you'll always have to worry about things getting public? even with the drinking, smoking and partying and stuff?", alexis asks genuinely interested.

matt presses his lips together and shrugs "the party's are secret. there are mostly influencers, and everybody in LA knows that you're gonna get cancelled if you snitch. and it works for now."

alexis frowns and chuckles, "so none of your fans knows that you're smoking, drinking and attending messy house parties?"

"as far as i know", matt laughs.

"and what do you and your brothers do?"

"youtube. but we had to take a break because someone stole almost everything we need to film." he looks down to his shoes and his smile fades.

alexis gets goosebumps and her hands get sweaty as matt speaks. she never felt so bad in her entire life. "that really sucks", she tries not to stutter.

matt nods and then looks up at her with a light smile, "it is what it is. we already ordered new cameras, but the delivery takes ages. but it'll be fine soon!"

alexis smiles back at him and nods.

"oh, i need to get back and get penny", she suddenly remembers, attempting to stand up, but matt pulls her back down. "i don't think so", he laughs, "chris texted me earlier. they went together to our place."

nooooo, fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck!

"you gotta be kidding!", she exclaimes, as she takes out her phone to check if mandy texted her. she did.

——
mandy:
bro tf we gotta talk tmrw
——

alexis rolls her eyes and puts her phone back into her pocket. "ok you're not kidding", she says, laughing softly. she hopes that mandy and chris just fuck that one time, so they don't have to pretend to be julie and penny anymore. if matt, chris, nick or even ian find out that they burgled their house, it's gonna be over. police, court, jail. and most important: wesley would have to get rid of them both, because he would think they snitch to save their asses, even though they would never do that.

hours later, alexis and matt still sit on the bench at the bus stop. they've been talking about anything you could imagine. they've been talking about the most random shit, making jokes and laughed until they could hardly breathe. but they also talked about matt's life as a youtuber, about his family, his childhood... but every time matt asks alexis about her life, her family or her childhood, she tries to avoid the questions unobtrusively. he notices quickly that she doesn't want to talk about it, so he decides to stop asking questions like that. but he's more curious now.

alexis loves to listen to matt. she likes how excited he gets when he talks about thinks he likes or good memories he has. she likes how he rubs his eyes when he's laughing. she likes how long it takes for him to get to the point when he tells a story and how he smiles at her when he finishes talking. she really starts to like him and that's not good.

"am i tripping or is the fucking sun rising?!" alexis asks hypothetically, as she points to the sky, where the darkness meets the first few sun rays of the day. "fuck, you're right.", matt laughs and takes out his phone to check the time. "almost 7", he mumbles and puts his phone back in his pocket, "you hungry?"

alexis looks at him and tilts her head questioningly, "i'm actually starving". as soon as she finishes speaking, matt stands up, takes her hand and pulls her up, so she stands right in front of him. "come on", he says, still holding her hand, and starts walking, "let's get breakfast."
