New Love | Matthew Espinosa

Chapter 39,

Sunday, a day later;

I rolled over in my bed and accidentally bumped into Sammy, groaning and fluttering my eyes. 

"Sorry," I mumbled. "How are you this morning?" Sammy said as he stretched his arms forward. 

"Better than last night," I yawned as I rested upon my elbow. "Thought about your decision yet?" He asked as I just shrugged. 

"Don't really know what I want, who I want, or if I want it," I said as he nodded slowly. "Is there someone else?" He asked.

"No!" I shouted, causing Sammy to flinch. "Ghee, calm down," Sammy raised his eyebrows. 

"There isn't anyone else, of course not. I don't know what I'm saying, I'm so drained," I sighed and slowly closed my eyes; not knowing what's going on with my body. 

After about half an hour, I had a shower and my breakfast. I joined Sammy at the end of the bed and weakly smiled, soon knowing where my head is heading. I slowly looked at him and went to speak, but he bet me to it. 

"We all decided since it's free day today that we will go out shopping at Times Square," Sammy said as I just nodded. "I need to talk to someone first," I muttered as I looked down at his hands. 

"Matt?" He asked as I slowly looked up to his eyes. 

I just nodded my head and slowly stood up, not wanting to talk anymore. I huffed and wiped my hands along my thighs, soon making way to the door. 

"Good luck!" Sammy yelled. "Thanks," I mumbled as I turned around and raised an eyebrow towards him. 

Once I reached Matt's door, I took one deep breath in and shook all the nerves out of my body. I reached for the door and placed my knuckles upon the door, scared of what's to come. I shook my head and pulled my hand away from the door, not wanting to go in. But soon after a few seconds, I finally knocked onto the door and wanted for it to open up. 

The door then opened up and showed a shirtless Matt, causing me to become speechless. I slowly looked up to his eyes and gulped, feeling even more nervous. 

"You wanna come in?" He asked. "Ye- sure," I nodded my head and made way into his hotel room. 

I walked into their room and was greeted by Carter, as I didn't realize they shared a room. 

"Hello," Carter smiled. "Hi," I polity smiled and turned around to face Matt. 

"So what do you need?" He stopped walking and become only centimetres away from me. "What I need is to talk to you, alone," I said as I gave Carter the eyes to escape.

"Carter would you mind?" Matt said as I slowly looked back at him. 

Carter shrugged and got up, chucking a top on in the process. He soon made way out of the hotel room, causing my hands to shake. Matt ran over to the door and closed it behind him, locking it as he didn't want anyone to interrupt us. 

"You can sit down," Matt motioned towards his bed as I watched him make way over to me. "I don't want to sit," I shook my head as I crossed my arms. 

"Let's stand then," He stopped walking and looked down upon me. "Matt I'm so sorry-," Matt interrupted me by placing his finger on my lip.

"You shouldn't be the one apologizing. I should be," Matt furrowed his eyebrows together as he pulled himself closer to me. 

"I know but-," I mumbled onto his finger. "I'm the one who fucked up and cheated. I never meant to hurt you. That was one night out and it was the only night something happened between Sofia and I," Matt said as he felt my face all around; causing me to somehow melt inside.
