Chris had been in a bad mood all day. He didn't sleep well, his breakfast upset his stomach, he didn't eat lunch, his dinner had been made wrong and was cold at the restaurant you all went to, he had a headache, and was just feeling not good. He didn't really feel like being around people, but had made plans with you and his brothers and didn't want to back out. So, here he was, in the living room with all of you.
You had picked up on this, as Chris wasn't the best at hiding his emotions. You had checked in quietly a couple times with him, to which he just said he was fine with a tight smile. But you wanted to see one of those real, 1000 watt smiles of his. Smiles always make everyone feel better. So you tried to crack some jokes, which made his brothers cackle, but barely got a smirk out of chris. You didn't give up though.
You then went the route of showing him some funny tiktoks, but soon that proved to be a bad idea. On the third TikTok you showed him, he snapped at you loudly, grabbing the attention of his brothers who had been engrossed in their own conversation.
"God, can you just shut up and leave me alone?! You're so fucking annoying! I'm not in the mood to watch stupid ass tiktoks." He yelled as he got up from the couch, walking off to his room and slamming the door, leaving you shocked. Your face flushed with shame and embarrassment as tears welled in your eyes. He never yelled at you before, and all you were trying to do was to make him feel better. While you sat there embarrassed and surprised, nick jumped up and walked briskly after him, hollering that he couldn't just speak to you like that. However, he was met with Chris slamming his bedroom door in his face and the subtle click of the lock.
You swallowed the lump in your throat as you pocketed your phone and stood up, wiping your now clammy hands on your pants and looking down, not meeting Matt's concerned gaze that you could feel on you.
"I, um-" you clear your throat, "I think I'm gonna go home. I'm sorry," you pause, sniffling a bit before you swallow again and roughly wipe away the stubborn tears that you wish would stop, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset him, I was just-"
Matt can't stand to hear your unnecessary apology shaking his head and standing with you.
"Hey, it's okay. He was out of line, you did nothing wrong here," matt tells you softly, before checking his phone, "it's 2 am, it's pretty late. You could stay if you'd want? You can stay in my room, I'll sleep out here? Or I can drive you home?" He offers.
"No I'll just drive myself home, I drove here so," you say again, still sniffling.
Matt frowns at your response, looking worried and not relieved like you thought he'd be. Why wouldn't he want you to just go? It would probably save him some awkwardness in the house tonight?
"I'd feel better if you stayed or let me drive you. You're upset, and it's not good to drive when you're emotional especially when you can avoid it. You're not just Chris's girlfriend, you're our friend and I wouldn't be a good friend if I let you out into what could be a dangerous situation," he explains, softly.
