Just us - Matthew Sturniolo

Just me - y/n

I heard my alarm go off. The sound blaring into my eardrums as I don't move but lazily move my arm around under my blanket and pillow to try and find my phone n shut it off. Found it. 7 am - it shown in big bold letters at the top of my screen.  Turning of the alarm I sit up on my bed , yawn, tiredly rub my face and eyes, stare into emptiness for a moment to gather my thoughts, then get up to get ready for my morning classes at college.

It takes me about 1/2 hours to get ready in the mornings depending on how I feel.

Some days I do light makeup and a comfy outfit, or do a usual face glam and go all New York fashion week with my outfit. I typically wear all black most of the time, but I love accessories. I can make any basic outfit stylish , it's my shown talent you could say.

My campus isn't that far from my house, I could walk there if I wanted to, would take like 30 minutes max. But that wouldn't be a good idea for me, with my social media presence, people would probably be stopping me and asking for pics, which I don't mind. I'm not famous but I'm well known. I'm not really a social person and I'm not known for funny, outgoing, crazy content. I just like to take aesthetic pictures of my life ; and post them. My friends would say I'm pretty funny, but I don't really post that kinda content, here and there maybe tho, I'm too shy. I would be worried I look to weird or my voice sounds off. Social media attention can really get to you, but most of the time I don't care.

I do my usual morning jig; I drive to school, pay attention in class, eat some snacks between classes during break , and maybe before I start studying at a table somewhere outside on campus - I'll take a pic of my books n lap top spread out and open , ready for use. For my Instagram story ofc. I study for an hour or so at campus then pack my stuff and make my way home. 2 pm .

I'm laying in bed on my phone when I get a notification from one of my friends about some party tonight. It was Johnnie. As in Johnnie Guilbert. He's also a social media influencer who I became friends with over time. Him and Jake Webber are both my friends. They let me know all the cool spots in town for shopping usually when they find a new place, we kinda have the same all black edgy style. But I'm more of a Morticia Adams style when it comes to clothes.

I click on the message.

" sup loser, wyd tonight? Thinking abt throwing a last minute party n you actually better be there or id sit in the corner crying"

I think a bit before responding, actually contemplating if I wanna go or not. I'm usually an introvert. I don't really talk to people like that. But if it's Jake and Johnnies house, I definitely don't mind going.

"Lol. I'll be there"
