Right after the stream ends, Schlatt facetimes me so that he can talk to me while he packs, because he 'wanted to know what the weather was like before he packed things' to make sure he wouldn't be too cold or too hot, but we both knew that he just wanted to talk more, which I certainly wasn't going to complain about.

He was debating whether or not to bring three pairs of sweatpants when someone knocked on my door. I of course brought my phone over to the door to open it, just to see Jackson, who had been stopping by to use my various appliances until his were set up correctly. I swear he had some sort of sixth sense that told him when I was done with my streams, because he had stopped showing up while I was streaming, which was pretty nice because I didn't have to pause things.

"Hey, y/n!" He greeted me with a big smile.

"Oh hey Jackson, what's up?" I ask, returning his smile.

"I was just wondering if maybe you wanted to go out to dinner tonight, I just feel like I should repay you somehow for letting me use all of your stuff..." He says awkwardly, scratching the back of his neck. This really takes me by surprise and I take a moment to respond.

"Oh, I'm sorry I already have plans for tonight, but thank you anyways." I tell him, sneakily turning down my phone volume all the way so that he can't hear anything that Schlatt might end up saying.

"Yeah, no worries, maybe sometime else then?" He asks, blushing bright red.

"Uh yeah, my boyfriend is gonna be staying with me for the next two weeks though, so I'll be kind of busy I guess." I say with an awkward chuckle, wanting to make sure that he gets the hint that I'm not romantically interested in him. It seems like he almost stops breathing for a second before he gives me a little smile.

"Oh yeah, no worries," he says awkwardly, "anyways, I'm gonna head to the grocery store, so uh if you happen to need anything, you can text me." He says before giving me a brief wave and walking down the hallway, not allowing me to say anything in response. I stand there for a second and turn my phone volume back on.

"That was weird, wasn't it?" I ask Schlatt, lifting my phone up to my face so he can see me again. He raises an eyebrow at me.

"Yeah, I don't like that guy." Schlatt says grumpily as I close and lock my door before heading back upstairs to help him pack again.

"Well, he's nice I promise, and that's the first time he's ever come onto me..." I tell him, knowing that he wasn't a fan of what had happened.

"Was that the important neighbor business you had to attend to earlier this week?" He asks. I can tell he's jealous but I don't want to tease him about it just yet.

"Yeah, he asked to use my oven because he wasn't set up." I tell him, setting my phone on my desk and sitting down.

"Y/N, you know that maintenance literally always sets appliances up before new residents move in, right..." He asks, now sounding less angry and more confused.

"Uh, I didn't.." I say, suddenly very confused. If his appliances had been working fine why had he been coming over pretty much every day to use mine.

"Ask your landlord about that, I really do not like this guy.." Schlatt says defensively. Being curious now, I do as he suggests and send my landlord a message. My landlord and I were actually pretty close, and he was a super cool guy, so he responded pretty quickly to my messages,


Me: Hey! So I heard that Jackson's appliances haven't been set up yet, is there anything I can do to help out? I know that maintenance has been super busy recently..
