- Matt just wants to be a good boyfriend
- his confidence isn't always the best especially in relationships
- he's trying real hard but often he feels like he can't be the boyfriend you deserve
- you just need to hold him for a bit
- maybe tell him that he's enough
- Matthew is bad at taking compliments though
- he's not the most creative with date ideas or gifts but he tries asking the vets for tips and he's also not above asking his parents for help
- maybe google a bit
- his ideal time spend together is just holed up at home or doing a fun activity together
- takes you on hikes and then when you can't walk anymore because your legs are sore he'll give you a piggyback ride
- because he's a fool that would totally carry you until he can't anymore
- and he gives the best piggyback rides
- especially if that means having you pressed against him for a while
- not the most romantic but he can try and bring home roses
- don't let him try and cook you food because this boy burns water
- he can make a mean cereal tho
- Matthew absolutely loves it when you steal his stuff
- even though his first thought is always hey that fucker is wearing my hoodie
- before he realizes wait that fucker is my boyfriend, my boyfriend is wearing my hoodie
- queue soft Matty
- he gets really sweet about it like that's his man, in his hoodie, wearing his numbers, showing off that he's his
- also likes how your ass looks in his sweatpants
- when he has to get up early for morning skate or training he sometimes just takes a second to stay in bed and look at you
- not in a creepy way but like a little bit creepy
- he just thinks you look cute
- it also helps him get up in the morning because he's just not a morning person
- and seeing you being all cute and sleepy helps him get some energy for the day
- if you like have facial hair he would always complain about it being scratchy when you kiss
- but if you tell him that his weird beard is scratchy too he'd get fake offended and purposefully rubs his face against yours just to spite you
- he's always chewing on everything not just his mouthguard
- one christmas you get him a teething ring as a joke gift
- he always leaves love bites all over you
- maybe it's just normal oral fixation
- maybe he has a thing for just marking you up and claiming you
- maybe it's a mix of both
- who knows
- his family definitely always teases you
- especially his siblings
- Taryn and Brady definitely start a groupchat with you and you are always sending in blackmail material on Matthew to each other
- but that's just something that he'll have to deal with
- and you're sure that nothing will ever break you two up not even some pictures of baby Chucky being weird
