"Hey Y/N, baby girl can we talk about something?" Matt asked me, sitting down next to me. I nodded, saying an, "Of corse." as I sat up on the bed, and turned myself to look at him, giving him all my attention.
"I don't know how else to say this so I'm just gonna say it okay?" He asked me, his voice clearly revealing his nervousness. I nodded and held his hand to try to comfort him but he instantly took it away from my grip. "I don't think LA is the right place for me...." he said, looking down at his hands. "I bought a plane ticket and I'm heading home...... today." He said. I was speechless.
"Wh-what about us?" I asked him. Matt looked up at me, staring into my eyes then said, "I don't think we can work this out, with you here in LA and me back home in Virginia..." He said quietly.
I stared into his glossy eyes one last time. "So, your breaking up with me?" I asked him, wanting him to say no and take me back and not leave.
"Yea I guess." Matthew said. "I'll miss you." He said, placing one last kiss on my forehead.
"After all we've been though??" I asked him, tearing up.
"I just don't want to put you through the pain of all those FaceTime calls where I can't hug you and kiss you." He said.
"But you can come visit and I can go visit you..." I said in a quiet voice.
"Y/N, baby girl I'm so sorry...." He spoke, pulling me closer to him, hugging me tightly. "LA just isn't for me and I don't wanna string you along and put you through all that unnecessary pain of a long distance relationship." He explained. I quietly sobbed into his chest as he rubbed my back, planting a soft kiss on the top of my head. We sat there in silence for a little while before anyone said anything or moved.
"So this is it?" I asked him as we let go of each other. I looked into his eyes and a few tears stained his cheeks. Matt shrugged before speaking, "I guess." He spoke.
"If you ever decide to come back, you know where to find me..." I said.
"If I do, I will, it'll be my first stop." He said, kissing my forehead. "I'll miss you..."
"I'll miss you too, I love you." I said, one last time.
"I love you too...." He said, before letting go of my hand and leaving the room, leaving me all alone in the cold room, without his warm welcoming presence.
