if matthew sturniolo could shoot laser from his eyes, his phone would be burnt to crisp already.

he wasn't sure why the post bothered him so much. he had been staring at the same caption for a while now — and he was very unsure why. matt wasn't the type to make a fuss about being left out. he didn't care about his best friends having other friends — it's not like it was middle school. they were sophomores, and he knew better than to be jealous of his best friend having another friend.

except there was an ugly feeling bubbling in him — like a potion brewing. boiling and bubbly on top. was it the fact that elle turned him down to hang out with someone else or was it the caption? something about someone else being arielle's favourite made matt feel oddly jealous. he hated that feeling.

to shake all negative thoughts from brain, he climbed up the ladders of his treehouse. sometime when he was seven ; he, nick, chris, and arielle begged his father to build them a tree house. after weeks of sulking ( and a presentation using a manila card ) , the sturniolos' father finally gave in. matt remembers the day like yesterday. nick and chris chose the color of the treehouse meanwhile arielle and matt decorated the inside.

one of matt's habits which followed him into teenagehood ( spoiler alert : it followed him into adulthood too. . . and retirement! ) was wrapping himself using a blanket. no blanket was to be seen so the brunette settled for a knitted throw. albeit the throw not being lengthy enough for his whole body, he made do. anything as long as his head and hands are wrapped.

his phone remained lit up, instagram post still on the screen. matt felt pathetic. if it was any other person he wouldn't mind but it was arielle — his best friend arielle. something about not being her favourite stirred up jealousy in him. like some sort of overprotective boyfriend. matthew cringed at his own thoughts.  

ding !

matt sighed out of relief. he flopped back against a green beanie. elle still remembering him was a good sign, wasn't it? her being close to karina wouldn't cause them to grow distant, would it? throughout high school he had witnessed many group of friends fall apart — something he didn't want to happen to him and arielle.

overtime, matt grew tired of the possible scenarios and fell asleep on the beanie. he was still wrapped like a burrito ; sound asleep. little snores escaped his mouth as the world turned black.

༊*·˚ ༉‧₊˚✧

chatters echoed in the treehouse, awaking a sleepy matthew. there was a slight pressure on his chest, a moving one. it didn't take him too long to realize it was arielle laying on top of him. he awakened, eyes squinting to adjust to the brightness.

the sight before him made him a little. . . pissed. 

arielle was laying on his chest, eating a glazed donut while karina and nick hung out, talking about whatever the fuck. matt could only hear nick say ( or rather. . . yell ) something about birds. karina was just nodding along.

slowly, matt sat up. extremely careful to not let arielle fall. a groan slipped past his lips, earning everyone's attention.

"took you too long — don't worry though, i saved you two donuts," arielle chirped, looking up to her best friend.

matt didn't say a word, only flashing an awkward smile and nodding. arielle sat up then conversated with the two others, leaving matt's warmth.

birds, aliens, the multiverse theory — they talked for hours long. from the sun up in the air to it slowly sinking down. matt was quiet most of the time, though arielle made multiple attempts to include matt in the conversation. she thought it would be a good idea to bring karina over, the dark - haired teen felt as if the two would make good friends. it didn't seem that way now — karina suited nick much more. arielle could tell matt felt out of place so she slipped her hand into his. a discreet way of comforting the boy. whether he got the hint or not — she didn't know. but it was nice that he gripped her hand.

soon after, karina excused themself. nick followed them down the treehouse, still busy talking about the multiverse theory. arielle and matt could hear him mutter words along the line of "what if there was a me in another universe who isn't gay? fucking gross".

arielle listened closely, ensuring their footsteps were far away before turning to matt. blue eyes stared into other blue ones.

"i'm sorry i didn't tell you karina was coming over too," she apologized, hand still in his. she rested her head against his lean figure, breaking eye contact.

"huh?"

"you were quiet the whole time, could tell you didn't like it. i'm sorry, matt.

the teenage boy didn't know what to say. he leaned his head on arielle's, chest heaving up and down as he breathed. 

"i was just afraid that you and karina being close would cause us to grow distant," matt confessed.

the heavy burden on him felt light, then. 

"huh?"

arielle's turn to be confused.  she scooted away from matt to take a good look at him. as if she couldn't believe what matt had just said, trying to see if he was being genuine.

when she realized he was stating the truth, she burst into laughters, head thrown back as laughters escaped her mouth.

"oh god matty, can't believe you would think that!"

"stop fucking laughing at me, jesus. i was terrified!"

she playfully hit him as she laughed.

"god, matty. don't worry too much," arielle said as her laugh recedes,

"you're forever my number one."

a pang of relief and comfort washed over matt. he let out a deep sigh before leaning back against the beanie again.

"can't believe they called you elle though, that was supposed to be a me thing!"

"are you seriously fucking jealous right now, hm?" arielle chuckled, an eyebrow raised.

"fuck yeah! you really just said they're your favourite and now they call you elle too. i've got to come up with another nickname for you now," matt shamelessly uttered.

"the fucking nickname better not be stupid, matt."

"how about ari, hm?"

"not bad, actually."

matt glanced at his best friend, offering her a genuine smile which she quickly returned.

"okay, ari."
