"For crying out loud, settle down. You know I can't be found with you." - The 1975, Settle Down (2018 disclaimer.... I wrote this when I was 14 years old. It is cliche, cringe-y, and not written to my current standards. I will probably not get around to fixing that- that being said, enjoy!) TW: for thoughts of self harm, suicide, death ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Matthew Espinosa. The famous viner. Cocky, arrogant, but can put on a hell of a show for his fans. What happens when his attitude lands him across the country, living with his mother's best friend, and her daughter? Madison Bell. Average girl, average looks, average friends and an interesting way of going about things. She wasn't a geek, or super popular. She's one of the nicest people you'd ever meet, or one of the most vicious. Depends on how you play your cards. When Matt is thrown into this seemingly perfect family, does he shape up or continue with his old ways? What happens when Madi tries to get to know who the real Matthew Espinosa is? Will she discover a new friend, or will she unleash a monster?

"I remember that I like you, no matter what I found." - Heart Out, The 1975 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 6 months after finally getting together with Madison, Matt is back out on tour, living the dream and meeting fans. They both have to learn to cope with finally being separated after so much time together. But while Madison is pining for Matt's long distance affection, her mother appears to have finally settled down with a new boyfriend- which only makes matters in the house worse. Matt's ego constantly clouds his sense of judgment, but when he makes a huge mistake while away on the tour, does Madison understand and take him back or does she finally give up on him? Love can make you do pretty funny things. Too bad Matt learned that one text too late. (cover photo by byrant)

Squeal to 'You wanna bet?'

“I bet you 100 bucks you can’t get the next girl that walks in” Cameron challenged me. I rolled my eyes, he knows I could get anything I wanted or anyone. I smiled. “Deal” we waited for a girl to come in, I turned my back giving up. It was either an old lady or a little kid coming in here. Maybe an ice cream place wasn’t a good Idea. Then again I get free ice cream. Being the town’s bad boy wasn’t a bad think at times. The little bell rung and Cameron smiled. I knew a girl had come in. I turn to see y/n I smirked I knew her from school; she is pretty attractive. She was with a friend, I stood up walking towards them. Riley Pov “I cant believe I agreed to this” I whined. I stood in the ice cream place about to make a huge mistake. Me and my best friend were daring each other to do something crazy. But what I had to do was beyond crazy. Sleep with the bad boy, Matt Espinosa. “He’s coming over sh” she said walking away. I turn around and almost bump into me. he smell really good. I stare at his face as he looks me over and finally meets my eyes. I gulp, I can feel my face turn red. “Hey” he smiled at me. “Hi”
