Chapter Text
Matt is hyperfocused in on his game, FNAF Security Breach. So much so that he’s on the edge of his seat trying to outrun Chica to the office. He makes it into the office and ends up unable to hide from her for the umpteenth time. You laugh as he throws his controller on the couch and screams at the top of his lungs into Peepatwo, thoroughly frustrated.
“It shouldn’t be this hard!!! Why is there nowhere to hide there? Why does she literally teleport?!” Matt exclaims, sliding down the couch. He aggressively picks up his controller and reloads his save one more time. “If I don’t make this we’re ending the episode, (Y/N).”
You attempt to make a straight face and give him a thumbs up to acknowledge him. As he continues his game, you can’t help but giggle at him hugging Peepatwo as a lifeline.
Matt tilts his head in your direction, not taking his eyes off the screen. “Don’t laugh at my misfortune! Am I just a joke to you??” he exclaims jokingly.
“Oh, totally,” you respond sarcastically. He makes a break for the office and panics around the space before you come up with a seemingly stupid idea. “Jump on the table!”
“What?”
“Jump on top of it! It’ll be funny,” you laugh.
Matt complies with a raised eyebrow. Much to both of your surprise, Chica turns around and stomps off, seemingly uninterested now.
You meet each other’s eyes with matching shocked expressions.
“It worked.” Matt says quietly. There’s a slight pause and then, “WHY DID THAT WORK??”
You’re just cackling in the background. “I- I don’t know-” you wheeze as you try to catch your breath from laughing so hard.
Matt just stares at the screen a bit longer and then continues out of that office, and making his way to the security office. “Woah what the heck is this thing?” Looking at the weird pizza order screen on the desk. “Let me just grab this really quick.” He grabs the security badge and the cutscene starts, Chica pounding on the door.
“Oh my gosh we get to make pizza!” You exclaim excitedly, giving a little clap.
Matt smiles at you and presses the button to start. On the screen he’s controlling a STAFF bot “This is so interesting, what?” He maneuvers the bot to make the pizza according to the instructions and you encourage him from your desk. After he escapes the office and continues through the next area, reaching a save point. “Well I think I’m going to end the episode here for now.”
You quirk an eyebrow but change the camera to show just him.
“I had lots of fun this episode actually, minus me almost rage quitting and all the STAFF bot jumpscares, but really the star of today’s video is (Y/N). You and that jumping on the table strat really saved the playthrough today, it deserves a clap and a half.” He does his clap and a half with a goofy smile on his face and you giggle. “Anyways keep in mind, this wasn’t a livestream, but a video, a video for you. See ya!” He does his classic sign off pose and you cut the camera.
“Matt you don’t have to embarrass me on the internet y’know. I was mostly just telling you to jump on the table for the memes.” You chuckle as you stand up to turn off the many lights set up around the couch.
“Well I know that, but I was so close to rage quitting from teleporting Chica, you saved me.”
You roll your eyes lightheartedly, “Well it worked in both of our favors then.” You turn off one light and move to the next.
“What would I do without you, (Y/N)?”
You feel a blush dust your cheeks. “Well um, you’d probably be a bit lost and wouldn’t have survived teleporting Chica?” You flick off the last light and make eye contact with Matt.
“I don’t think I ever show or tell you how much I appreciate you, genuinely I do. How would you like to get lunch together sometime? And before you ask, no not for food theory,” he says with a chuckle.
You stare at him in shock for a second. “S-Sure! I’d love to, Matt.”
He smiles, “Good because I actually do want to incorporate a bit of food theory into this outing but it’s mostly just about showing you you’re appreciated.” He finishes with a wink while you groan and facepalm.
‘ What have I gotten myself into now… ’
