My Hero Matthew

The Package

Matt ends up winning the game because I obviously suck at bowling. We are in his car and he is driving me home. My house isn't far from the bowling alley, so i told him i could just walk, but he insisted on driving me. There was no point in arguing over it. He parks his car in front of my house and walks me to the front porch. I saw a box from FedEx on the doorstep.

"What's that?" he asked.

"I don't know.." was my reply as i stupidly opened the box. I soon realized what was in the box and tried to shut it before Matt could see. But he was too fast. He grabbed the box and pulled out the product inside. Quickly the smile on Matts face faded.

"Were you ever going to tell me that you're a fan?" he asks while holding up the t-shirt that was in the box. On the shirt was a picture of Matt and the words "Mrs. Espinosa" in bold.

"Yes I was going to tell you."

"When?"

"When the time was right."

"You couldn't have told me today?! I was talking about Magcon in the car and you couldn't have mentioned it then?"

"Well I wanted you to like me and you said it was refreshing not talking to a fan."

"I'm out of here."

"Matt! Please wait!"

But he didn't wait. He stormed to his car and sped away. I start to cry. I know we just met today and went on only one date, but I felt like i've known him for years. Tears start falling down my face as i soon realize the one person who brings me happiness might not ever forgive me.
