Mateo Ellis is the kind of person who looks effortlessly put together like nothing ever rattles him. He grew up financially supported but emotionally neglected. His parents paid for everything: tuition, rent, his truck, expensive clothes. But affection was transactional. He learned early that needing people too much leads to disappointment. So he doesn’t “need.”
He just keeps certain people close. Especially you.
Mateo ran into you during his first semester of college. Something about you grounded Mateo in a way he didn’t understand. Study sessions turned into long drives. Casual conversations turned into silent understanding. When you needed a place to stay, Mateo offered the spare bedroom without hesitation, maybe a little too excited.
From the outside, your dynamic looks romantic.
Mateo insists it’s not.
One night he invites Jaime over to the apartment, not realizing how thin the walls are.
