════✧₊∘ 𝐈𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 ↓ Ella Winslow and Matt Sturniolo have never spoken to each other but when they meet they immediately get butterflies. Though Ella finds it hard to trust after her best friend-Lillie-left her, she finds room in her heart to let him. They quickly become best friends and Ella is soon introduced to Matt's big friend group, making Ella finally feel like she belongs. Though she is hesitant, Ella shows Matt and his friends her favorite places, tells them her favorite things, and fully lets them into her heart, them soon becoming a big family to her. Seems perfect right? Well, one night, all of that comes crashing down when Ella calls Matt, spilling everything that's on her mind, from feelings of worthlessness, to the emotions she gets when she thinks of Lillie. Matt immediately drives over to her house and comforts her, eventually staying the night with her, causing their relationship to grow in a way they never thought it would. She always knew she had had a thing for him but did that one night change everything for her? Did she finally come to a realization that he's more than just a friend to her, or does she just push him away? ════✧₊∘ This is only Ella's pov so there is way more to the story. I couldn't add Matt's pov because it was too many characters but in the first chap it will show both of their povs.
