Warnings: Talk of Anxiety
You tried to hide your smile as Wilbur sent another dumb message. This was common these days, as you both spent hours messaging and calling each other.
Due to both of your careers being Streamers or as Tommy likes to call it āInfluencersā, your time was always wasted and texting Wilbur filled that time.
In the beginning, the texting was very rare. A āAre you Streaming?ā Or a āGood Streamā was often sent, but never anything else. That changed when you joined his Love or Host.
It was supposed to be a joke. You didnāt know him well, but anyone could look at him and find him pleasing to the eye. You were surprised when you had gotten to the top three.
That day you were so nervous, palms sweating as you kept on going each round. You were surprised to not be kicked out so soon. But, you knew that you wouldāve win. We all knew that Niki would for clout purposes, and you didnāt mind really.
Thatās when it took a turn for the better, hun picking you to win, and as you picked Love, you both enjoyed a wonderful Minecraft picnic.
Thatās when you started talking to him more and started to see that he was intriguing. He didnāt like love, calling it āfakeā and a āwaste of timeā but a small part of you wanted to prove him wrong. You noticed that he sometimes disappeared for a few days, his anxiety worsening. After a heartfelt conversation, you vowed to never leave his side for anything or anyone.
Thatās when the small crush started. You pushed it down, calling it a cliche best friends to lovers movie. You couldnāt help the crush, and it started growing bigger.
He didnāt believe in love.
You tried to push it away as farthest as you could, but it kept coming back.
That is what lead you to today. You were texting him like normal, but there was a difference.
You were at his apartment door.
Clasping your hands together, you knocked on his door.
āComing!ā You heard him yell out.
You froze in shock as you heard his voice. You were really doing this.
As the door opened wide, you noticed the shock on his face as he saw you, but your face a full of anxiety.
ā[Name]! What are you doing here? Are you okay?ā He whispered the last part.
āLook. I know that you hate love in every way possible, but Iām in love with you. I know this sounds like a cliche love confession but I couldnāt say this through text. Give me 14 days to show you what love really is. Thatās all I have here, My attention is on you, because I love you. Please.ā You rattled out, avoiding his gaze by looking down.
After a few moments of silence you rose your head up slowly to see a shocked Wilbur again.
You both couldnāt seem to find the words, staring into each otherās eyes.
All he could muster was a āokay.ā letting you into his apartment.
