Settle Down (Matt Espinosa)

Ch. 1

Matt's POV

I've been sitting on this freaking plane for 6 hours, NYC to LAX.
Any sane person would be jumping up and down at the opportunity for a weather change, hell, some would even spring for a complete life change.

Me, I'm pissed about both "changes". I liked my New York weather, thank you very much. What's the fun in it being warm all the time? Boring.
Trust me, I've been to California before, I've been everywhere. Perks of being a famous viner, the Magcon Tour takes you just about everywhere you've ever dreamed of going.

And California isn't one of them for me. So many people make it out to be this golden city where everyone gets big breaks and spends their life on the beach. But in reality, it's just a place full of wannabes trying to fit it and make big bucks, take the easy way around things.

Apparently my "attitude" is out of control and my mother can't handle me anymore. So she's sending me off to her "best friend". Her best friend, on the other side of the country. Would you like to tell me how that even works?

I know for a fact my dad couldn't give two shits about what happens to me or where I'm going. Hell, I don't even know where the fuck he is. He's never been a real father to me and never will be. He'd rather be picking girls up from clubs and doing lines in rundown bathrooms, but I don't really care. The old hag can do whatever the fuck he wants, as he has his whole life.

My mother lost him, and now she's losing me too, but by her own choice. Whatever, though. She told me, during the last huge fallout we had, that I was just like my father.
If she thinks I act like him, may as well play the part, I've already hit rock bottom in her book.

But my fans, well, my fans think I'm someone I'm not. They think I'm some fun, sweet, caring, awesome guy who doesn't have a hateful bone in his body. And that couldn't be farther than the truth. However I wouldn't have a career if they saw what I really was though, right? As long as I can play the part around them, they never have to know. As long as there's a bubbly, sweet Matthew Espinosa posting hilarious vines on a weekly basis, there's business and fame.

"Attention passengers, we are now preparing to land at the Los Angeles International Airport, please fasten your seatbelts and turn all electronic devices off, thank you."

The flight attendant interrupted my thoughts, and I realized what is actually happening right now.

I'm being forced to live with some woman I don't even know, in a city I absolutely hate. First of all, how am I going to explain this to my fans? "Sorry, guys. I'm actually hated by the majority of people I know and my dearest mother sent me across the country to get my attitude in check." That'll go over well. 
Second, how the fuck am I going to get out of this mess?

Maybe try to be a better person? 

Every once and a while my conscience tries to push through and tell me my actions are "bad" or my attitude is "fowl", but it should learn by now, that that little fucking annoying voice doesn't change anything, nor will it ever.

A/N: hey guys! So I've decided to start up another story and I'm super excited about it.
Once it gets going, most of the POVs will probably be Madison's, but there will be some more Matt in the future as well. I was going to make this chapter longer and add the landing and everything, but decided it would be better to just put it in a different chapter. :)
