quackity's bday is coming up...

you
11:45am
yes...
u thinking what i'm thinking

karl
11:49am
does it have something to do with a plane ticket

you
11:55am
what an amazing guess

karl sends you a screenshot of a receipt for a plane ticket. for quackity.

"DID YOU JUST DO THAT?" you scream as you facetime karl.

"OH MY HONK, I THINK I DID!" he jumps up and down, the camera shaky.

"POP OFF CENTRAL!" you yell, grinning. once you calmed down, you started to plan.

"okay," karl says, pressing his intertwined fingers to his lips. "how far is my place from yours?"

"three hour drive," you reply.

"okay, perfect. we're not going to tell him you're coming, okay?"

"yes, yes," you agree, starting to feel a flutter of nerves at the thought of seeing him. you've only been friends for a month, and real-life was so different from voice chats and facetime. this was serious. you hope it won't be awkward since you had no idea how he would react once he saw you.

"i used his email as the confirmation email, so he'll see that he has a flight ticket once he checks. i just sent him a text to check his emails."

"dude, this feels so unreal," you say.

"yeah," karl breathes. "i know. but i'm EXCITED!"

his energy is infectious and it warms you. no matter how many doubts you had, you really were excited to meet quackity in person.

"alex just responded, he's checking now," karl says, excitement making his voice higher. he laughs suddenly.

"what?" you ask urgently.

"i'll send you a screenshot," he says, still laughing. he sends you a spam of texts, all from alex.

alex

karl

VOUCHHHHHH

you laugh along. "this is going to be insane."

"7 days and counting!" karl said, whooping.

"he just texted me too," you tell karl, smiling.

"oh yeah? what'd he say?"

"'i'm meeting karl!' in all caps."

"ohhh, of course," he says, grinning.

"now i just have to pretend i have no idea."

"that's easier through text, at least."

you

you liked that he was comfortable with telling you anything that happens, no matter how small. you've been texting him more frequently lately, sharing random bits about your day and spamming each other with memes. you decide to text the group chat you were in with karl and quackity.
