Then he fought every nerve in his body not to act smug as AJ looked like he wanted to deck him. This was by far a record of pissing AJ off. Normally it took at least a few minutes and maybe a jab towards him and Jamie. Not that Matt did that often. Just enough to know that it works. But then AJ turned to the others and threw his fries at them yelling to get them all. It was then that Matt noticed Yessi. Or rather her eye rolling. Instantly all smugness fled his body. So it was going to be like that? No civility, just instant distaste. She didn’t have to be here or join in on the road trip. There were plenty of people for her to do in LA. Though then Matt realized that she probably thought the same of him to some extent. Which only meant that if they couldn’t stand each other on the trip it would eventually explode. Matt didn’t like those kind of explosions. They were far too taxing. Far too annoying. So he did what he always did. He threw Yessi an empty smile and then turned to the others. AJ was stomping off in the meantime. He slid in the boot after Monica and Mandy took their seats. Right in time for Aleks to offer him a fry. [color=F7941D]“Don’t mind if I do.”[/color] He said as he reached over for one. Muscle memory made him hold it in between fingers like a cigarette before he chomped it down. Then it dawned to him that he alone could not be possible for AJ’s outburst. [color=f7941d]“I see you’ve all been working up AJ already. Damn it guys that’s so selfish.”[/color] He said with a worried face. As if he actually cared that AJ threw another tantrum. [color=f7941d]“You know how much I love setting off that guy. You really couldn’t wait until I got here?”[/color] He was sure to just face Chris and Aleks while keeping Yessi in the corner of his eyes. In all fairness, he was late. Then Ellie joined in. [color=f7941d]“Nope, you didn’t miss anything.”[/color] He said with a far more inviting smile than he gave Yessi. [color=f7941d]“I set him off but I think I have to give credit to these two particular idiots.”[/color] He added as he pointed at Chris and Aleks. [color=f7941d]"But really, what better way is there to start a road trip off than with AJ throwing a tantrum."[/color] He flashed Ellie his almost trademarked shit-eating grin.
