Matt Espinosa Imagines

One Shot

The sun flooded in through the open window as the three friends sat on the couch, watching television. It was a Sunday and they were having a relaxing day. They'd been joking around and laughing about what was going on in the movie. They were waiting for their fourth friend, Matt, to arrive, but they'd started the movie without him because he said he would be late. Suddenly one of the friends decided to speak up with something that he knew the rest were wondering as well.

"What's with Matt?" Carter suddenly said, causing both Cameron's and Nash's eyes to focus on him.

"What do you mean?" Nash asked, still studying him.

"He's been a bit quiet lately." Carter explained. "I mean, nothing major, but he's been a bit secretive."

"Yeah, I've kind of noticed it too." Cameron piped in, taking the remote control and muting the movie playing on the TV set. What was going on with Matt was a lot more important to all of them than the movie.

"Do you think it's because (Y/N)'s not here?" Nash asked.

"(Y/N)'s on vacation. It can't be that, can it? I mean, she'll be back." Carter said, shaking his head. "But now that you mentioned it, I wanted to talk to you, guys, about that."

Both Cameron and Nash looked at him, awaiting what he had to say. It was apparently a subject all of them had been thinking about, but had been too afraid to broach.

"Don't you, guys, find it kind of strange that she just made a decision to go on that family vacation in the last moment? She was so anxious to stay right here with Matt. It took a lot of convincing until they let her stay home, while her family went to Hawaii."

Cameron nodded slowly and Nash looked at Carter worriedly, turning over what he'd said in his head. Seeming to get a thought, he took his phone out of his pocket and typed something in. A few seconds later his eyes widened and he blinked at his phone with a confused expression. Carter leaned over his shoulder and Cameron got up from his place and walked over to where Nash was sitting on the other side of the couch.

"There isn't a single picture of her and Matt together." he said, looking up at the other two boys.

"Her Instagram was filled with tons of pictures with Matt. What happened to all of them?" Carter asked, clearly confused. "Wait a minute..." he trailed off.

"No," Cameron shook his head, apparently comprehending exactly what Carter had been trying to say. "He would have told us if they'd broken up."

"But, then again, that does explain why he's been so quiet lately." Nash said, biting his lower lip in thought. "Man, I feel bad for him. He did love her. I actually never thought they'd break up. They seemed perfect for each other."

At the moment the doorbell resounded through the house. Carter got up to open to the door, because they were at his house.

"I guess we can ask him, ourselves." he commented before going out of the door.

Cameron took out his own phone from his pocket with a slightly confused face expression and scrolled through it. In the mean time Carter came back with Matt in the living room, who cheerfully - or what he made it look like - greeted his friends. Suddenly all eyes were focused on him, except for Cameron, who was still looking at something on his phone.

"You and (Y/N) broke up?" Nash asked.

Way to be forward, Carter thought, rolling his eyes at Nash, who only bore his eyes into Matt.

Matt just looked in between the two of them for a moment, feeling caught. Then he sighed and only shook his head. "Yeah, we did."

"When did you break up?" Carter asked, sitting back down on the couch next to Nash and Matt following suit. "And why?"
