Sam was talking to Jessi in front of her locker before class, they were talking about summer plans when Matthew walked through the doors to the hall and started walking towards them in a hurry
"He looks worried" Jessi said, closing her locker
"How could to te-" Sam started to ask when Matthew finally got over to them
"Jessi! Did you get the text I sent you? I did send it to to right? Oh.. Hay Sam"
"Yeah you sent it to me, it sounds so embarrassing, show me the messages" Jessi said almost grabbing Matthews phone
"Hi Matthew.. you ok? You look worried" he asked, he wasn't good with facial expressions so he was just going off of what Jessi said
"Oh he sent something he didn't mean to to Aidan" Jessi said looking at the messages
"Aidan?" Sam cocked his head, he had heard them talking about a boy but they always said pharmacy boy
"I'll catch you up, he's the boy I met at the pharmacy on valentine's day, we've been messaging and he tried to facetime me but i chickened out and declined. Then I sent 'jessi' a message about it but I accidentally sent it to Aidan!" Matthew showed Sam the messages, he spoke very fast but Sam was used to that by now
"Oh shit" Sam read the messages and tried to hide the cringe on his face
"Anyway I need your help with the Aidan situation" Matthew looked at Jessi
"AKA the situAidan" Jessi smiled
"Omg I love that- but no.. I haven't heard from him in twelve hours" Matthew looked at his messages
"Sometimes when I make a mistake I just own it, like when i accidentally called my old teacher Mr instead of Miss, I missgendered all the teachers that day... Why don't you send other random messages to him like it's on purpose?" Sam looked at him, trying not to butt in too hard
"I like it!" Matthew smiled and began texting "Happy birthday aunt Linda, hope that little dog brings you all the comfort uncle Loan never could" he showed the two of them the message
"Do 'Mum I forgot my bag at home'" Sam chuckled as Matthew sent it
"Oo funny, ok now text him hurricane relief in all caps" Jessi smiled
"Oh, was there another hurricane?" Matthew frowned while texting
"Probably, don't you follow Al Gore on twitter?" Jessi asked
"No.. gross" Matthew went back to his phone
"Well the earth is boiling!" Jessi shows the boys her phone
"I'm not on twitter.. it's too crazy" Sam looked at his phone "I use Tumblr" this got a concerned look from Jessi
"Hay is that anew phone by the way?" Jessi asked looking at Sam's phone "your old one looked like it was ran over bya monster truck"
"Yeah, Elliot and Diane have it to me" Sam smiled
"Oh my god he wrote me back" Matthew turned back to Jessi and Sam
"Read it out loud immediately please" Jessi smiled
"He Venmod me 26 cents for hurricane relief" Matthew laughed "he's funny right?"
"I mean sure, if your attracted to him he's very funny" Jessi smiled
"What are we talking about hu?" Jay appeared out of nowhere "Gordy's Journey? Am I right? I mean should we just cut school and watch the four and a half episodes like I dunno now?"
"Egh, that show about the gay magician?" Matthew rolled his eyes
"HES NOT GAY" Jay shouted"he's bi...I think I dunno its very complicated and everythings in kilometres. You know what, everybody just watch the show ok? So that you can answer some questions about my god damn personal life!" He starts pointing at random students
Benji leaned on Sam's shoulder "that boys deffinetly some flavour of queer"
Sam chuckled "shh he's learning"
