“Are you taking a sexuality test or something?“ She asks, furrowing her brows briefly before bursting out laughing.

Rebal rolls his eyes, “No, not today at least. Instead, we’ll be looking at half naked men on TikTok.” He announces, finally letting in both the audience and his girlfriend on what they’ll be doing.

“Oh perfect, works well for me. Abs making up for lack of talent, I’m down.“ The girls shrugs innocently, purposely not looking in the direction of the quote unquote hurt gaze of the messy haired boy.

There’s a brief moment of silence before a new announcement is made by the owner of the channel, “Alright guys, that’s gonna be it for today. Thanks for watching....“

Laughing as a result of her boyfriend’s words, Y/N covers her mouth, “No, no, no! I was kidding, just kidding, I swear! Honest!”

The man narrows his eyes at her suspiciously, contemplating whether to accept her not-exactly-an-apology apology, “Then you better watch yourself and your reactions, missy.”

She sheepishly sticks her little finger in the air, pointing it at him, “I solemnly pinky swear that I’ll do no such thing as drool over these men.” Hearing those words, Rebal wraps his own pinky finger around hers, giving her the opportunity to mumble out, “....like you do.”

“Excuse me?!“

It’s been about seven minutes into the video and Y/N is doing well with keeping a straight up poker face and a teasingly funny judgement in response to the videos her and Rebal are watching as part of a cringe compilation of thirst traps and POVs, some of which she’ll admit are not half bad. But alas, so far so good. She’s only muttered ‘Damn, boy!’ three times, and all three were inside her head so she done a great job avoiding an abrupt end to the video.

Rebal is ruthless in his commentary. He’s roasting and dragging these men left and right and doesn’t even give a flying fuck.

“He could shred cheese on those abs if only he knew how to shred cheese in general.“ He says in response to the latest thirst trap they’ve watched, causing Y/N to giggle.

“Maybe he’s vegan, or lactose intolerant. Don’t be so quick to judge, gosh!“ She scolds him, barely containing a smile when he throws his arms up in the air in surrender.

“Fine, fine, you’re right, I shouldn’t jump the gun like that. I’m sorry.“ He says, tilting his head so their eyes meet, both of them giving each other a quick smile before simultaneously remembering they’re in front of a camera.

“Good, you should be. Next video.“ She says, clapping her hands twice for emphasis.

Rebal silently complies, clicking onto the next video in the playlist. Much to Y/N’s dismay, this is one of those which aren’t actually as bad as the others. Also, to add more to her dismay, this time when that familiar ‘Damn, boy!’ echoes throughout her head, this happens:

“What’d ya just say?“

Oh shit

Yeah, turns out this one wasn’t exactly internal if Rebal’s glare is anything to go by. Instead of retaliating, Y/N chooses honesty even if it means this video will be going turtles all the way down. Not that it’s of any high quality anyway but oh well.

“He’s hot, ok?! He’s a mildly attractive and humorous fella and I’m allowed to appreciate that so fuck off!“ She’s not even trying to hide her smile as she hisses at him, a smile which provokes one to appear on Rebal’s face as well. It is utterly impossible for these two to exchange a single look without smiling or giggling like they’re in middle school with painfully obvious crushes on each other from across the room.

“First of all, no f bombs, please. This is a family friendly channel.“ Just the first part of his argument has his girlfriend scoffing and rolling her eyes, let alone the rest, “Second, he’s such a fucking tool! ‘Oh look at me, I got abs!’ boohoo whatever. Man should put on a shirt and stay fucking humble.“

Choosing to not waste time to comment on his own f bombs, Y/N takes a different approach, “Says the guy who hasn’t posted a non-shirtless photo on Instagram in months! Even if you wear something above the waist, chances are it’s showing more than two thirds of your chest!”

“And you like it, don’t even try to lie!“

“OK yeah I do.“

“Hell yeah you do! Point for me, bestiesss!“

“That’s not how that works! And where did the point come from?! This isn’t a game!“

“It is now.“

“Well then game fucking on, Rebal.“

“Game on, babe.“

Pecking her lips, he moves onto the next video, leaving her blushing a deep red and biting her bottom lip with embarrassment. In her flustered frenzy, she makes a mental note to tell him to cut that out of the video when he sits down to edit it but, considering we just saw it right now, she either forgot or changed her mind. It remains a mystery but that kiss also remains out on the web for everyone to see.

- Also, don’t get it twisted: Rebal is NOT the early riser

- You are usually the one up first, getting ready to go to work and have probably already left the house by the time he wakes up

- You never forget to leave him a sticky note on the fridge if you don’t get to say goodbye to him before you leave

- However, on the weekends when you don’t have to work, Rebal is the one up first because you tend to sleep in

- Being in his videos when you can is also a must

- Cringing together at tiktoks is a lot more fun than if he were to do it alone, that he’ll have to admit

- You were extremely camera shy in the beginning but as you gradually grew more and more popular amongst his fans you started getting more comfortable

- You’re the one replying to the comments on his posts social media posts and videos because you love interacting with his fandom

- That is, of course, if you haven’t taken your work back home with you

- On those nights it’s COFFE FOR DAYS

- Rebal usually stays up with you, offering to help you as much as he can despite having zero knowledge of what to do or how to do it

- Therefore, the main way he helps is by delivering coffee and snacks to your desk tirelessly

- You thank him with a kiss on the cheek every single time he comes to refill your mug or snack bowl

- Following the hard and long working hours comes some much needed but not long enough sleep

- Speaking of which....CUDDLES

- You are both cuddlers but Rebal is definitely the initiator of the majority of you cuddle sessions

- He’s also the one who’s to blame if you ever show up to work late because the man refuses to let go of you in the morning
