So when you arrived, people were streaming and getting interviewed by Ron, you said hey to everyone that you saw, you took pictures with some streamers, but then while everyone is going into the main room because the show was starting soon, your walking to go find your seat but you see in the corner of your eye, adapt taking out a necklace that says “yummy” and walking towards Tara

Stand there Watching the whole interaction, you quickly look away, looking down at the ground tears already forming, and walking to your seat

You really tried not to cry because you knew that you and adapt weren’t dating, he didn’t owe you anything,so when adapt won break out streamer of the year, you wanted to hug him and say how proud you were of him but no you stayed in your seat,you just couldn’t face him not after the whole situation with Tara.

So when the night came to the end, you ignored him completely, and walked straight passed him and went to the after party, of course adapt and all the faze guys were there, you went up to all of them and said congratulations to all of them, except adapt, you knew that it was petty for ignoring him, but you felt hurt and you didn’t want to face him.

You walked to the bar, you told yourself you just needed a drink to take the edge off, but once you reached the bar, one turned into another, and then another, until the hurt started to feel a little quieter.

You stand up, barely managing to stay upright, your fingers tightening around the back of the chair as the room spins. When you finally look up, you spot Adapt pushing through the crowd toward you, concern written all over his face.

Your vision blurs.

The last thing you remember clearly is Adapt calling your name again sharper this time, then everything went black..

You wake up and for a second you don’t know where you are. Then it hits you,it’s Adapt’s bed….Your head feels heavy.

You sit up slowly but then you look at the door you see adapt, leaning against the doorway, arms crossed, watching you like he’s been awake for a while.

You stay silent, then adapt finally speaks up “ you feel better?”

“Yeah..”

“Y/n you scared the hell out of me”

“How…?”

“I carried you out,” he says. “You could barely stand.”

“Oh..” you say quietly

“Y/n I’m not mad, I just-why did you drink so much?”

“I don’t know, I didn’t mean to….”

“You’re lying, You don’t get blackout drunk for no reason, you were acting weird that whole night you barely talk to anyone especially me so please y/n tell me why and don’t give me a bullshit excuse.”

“It stupid, I was overacting..” you say quietly but loud enough for him to hear

“No it’s not and even if it is I still want to know why you avoided me that night so please tell me”

You hesitate before speaking “ I saw you give Tara.. the necklace- I know I know we said no strings attached”.

“You saw that?”

You nod

“Look y/n I didn’t mean to hurt you me and Tara are friends, nothing more…. Look the only reason I gave her is because I was trying to move on from you I thought are relationship wouldn’t go any further… because I didn’t think you didn’t like me like that.”

You hesitate before speaking “I do like you I just… I just thought that I wasn’t allowed to want more, because we said no strings attached and I didn’t want to be the one to break that…”

He goes quiet, then nods. “Yeah… that’s how I saw it too”

For a moment, neither of you speaks. It’s not awkward—just honest in a way it hasn’t been before.

“So what now?” you ask, barely above a whisper.

He looks at you, expression careful but real. “I don’t know. But I don’t want to keep pretending this doesn’t matter so how about we start over, I take you out on a real date,we do it the real nature way”.

“okay yeah I would like that”

He nods once. “ Okay,” he says. “Then we’ll do it right, we’ll figure it out as we go.”
