He came to the coffee shop every morning. He always ordered the same thing. He always sat in the same booth. He wore clear circular glasses and he had light brown hair.

His eyes, a deep icey blue, and his skin light peach.

Soft cries came from the booth, instead of his usual soft hums. His head seas buried in his hand.

Her brown eyes watched him from behind the counter. She wanted to talk to him, but her anxiety got the best of her.

*next day*

He was there once again. His face was still stained with tears.

Behind the counter the girl made his usual order. She was going to talk to him. She walked over to the booth the man was sitting.

"Here" she sets the drink down "its on me"

"Thank you" he says looking up with blood shot eyes

"If you don't mind me asking. Do you want to talk about what's wrong" she asked the man. She cringed at her own words, taking deep breaths trying not to panic about the words that just came out of her mouth

"Well, yesterday I found out my wife was cheating on me, she was pregnant and it wasn't mine" he sniffles

"Oh I'm so sorry" she says, tears welling up in her eyes

"I mean, things happen for a reason right" he wipes his face

"Yea I guess so" the girl shuffles

"You can sit down you know" he laughs softly, staring up at the girl

She shuffles over to the booth and takes a seat in the empty coffee shop.

"So what about you, I know you didn't really want to wok at this run down shop"

She nods

"I was in an abusive relationship and I started having really bad panic attacks. He said I was a freak and he never really loved me. Then he ran off with all my stuff and my older sister"

"Ooh that's harsh" he looks at her with sympathy

"Yea it is what is though. Now I work here and I'm trying to earn money to get my own apartment"

"Well, I own a studio where we shoot YouTube videos and we are looking for some new employees. Do you know how to edit?"

"Yea I actually do" she smiles

"Well here" he says pulling out a card and handing it to her "come in tomorrow for an interview"

"Thank you....?"

"Call me Matt"

"Y/N" she smiles back.

"Well I'll see you tomorrow" Matt smiles grabbing his bag and drink and heading towards the door

"See ya" she smiles

*** years later

After successfully getting the job as thumbnail maker for googly eyes, team edge gaming, and team edge, you became Matt's roommate.

"Hey Y/N come here for a sec" Matt calls you into the living room

"What ya ne-" she starts before looking at the lights strung around the room.

The pillows spread around the floor. Sheets hung on the walls. The title screen for Beauty and the Beast on the TV.

"Matt?" she calls out

"Surprise" his voice booms from behind her

"What is all this"

"You've been working hard lately, so I thought I would be nice to have an us night" he smiles

"Matt you too sweet" you gush

"You deserve it"

"What about the thumbnail for tomorrow's team edge video?" you ask panicked

"Gunner is doing" he smiles, plopping down on the couch, pulling you with him

**

Your head was rested on the brunette's chest as the credits played.

You yawn, which then makes Matthias yawn. He places his hand at the bottom of your back.

Your eyes start to close, but before sleep took you away, Matt leaned down and kisses you forehead.

"I love you Y/N"

You opened your eyes and propped yourself up so your face was right in front of his, you leaned down and placed your lips on his.

"I love you too Matt, I always have"
