"Behind the Scenes" A Skephalo Story

Chapter One

Badboyhalo Pov

It was a bright and early morning to be streaming. Today was just going to be a casual day, with of course, no memes in the chat. Me and Skeppy had a little server together we'd started on, and the plan for today was to finish building the house. Of course, with Skeppy around, who knows if that would ever happen?

I turned on the stream and opened up Minecraft. My chat was already starting to come, with 1,500 viewers already tuning in on Youtube. Twitch had fallen off a little for me, and I was drawing more of a crowd on YT.

On my second monitor, I hopped onto Discord and called Skeppy, who answered immediately. Zak wouldn't be streaming today, so all the views were coming to me. As much as I hated to admit it sometimes, my followers weren't the only thing I cared about, after all, Youtube and Twitch were my main source of income.

"Welcome everyone!" I announced to the chat, and adjusted my volume to hear Minecraft better. Skeppy went to cause havoc immediately, and started breaking all the chests carrying the supplies we were going to use for the house.

"YOU LITTLE MUFFINHEAD!" I screamed, but instead of replying, he said nothing and continued to destroy things.

"ANSWER ME SKEPPY!" I shrieked, and I heard him do his classic exasperated groan, followed by a "Whaaaaaat? I'm not doing anything Darryl."

I laughed, "Did you just call me by my real name?!?" It was one of the few times he had said my real name, especially on stream too.

"NOBODY CARES BAD!" He yelled back, and my speakers vibrated at the intensity of just how loud he'd yelled it. The two of us then burst out laughing and fooled around for the next couple of hours. I tried to build the new house, but time and time again Zak would mess it up, and that's when I finally caught on... Skeppy was using a soundboard. Whenever he talked, everything sounded exactly the same! This was the fourth time he had fooled me now, and at the end of the video he was recording, and at the end of my stream, he'd won the "challenge" he'd set for himself.

Today was a very basic day for me, but what could be better than spending time with my best friend? I always felt happiest when I spent time around him. I smiled and turned off my stream, reading aloud a few donations before Ieft. Lucy, or "Rat" was lying on the floor near my feet, her tail wagging rapidly.

I gave my dog a quick pat on the head, then went to the kitchen to prepare dinner for myself and Lucy. The bag of dog kibble was balancing inside one of the upper cabinets, and with some effort I managed to drag it down... onto the floor. The entire bag of food flew everywhere and I yelped, "FIDDLESTICKS."

Grabbing my broom, I was able to sweep everything up into the trash. Thankfully, only about 25% of the bag had fallen, and I fed Rat. After she was full, I moved the dog food into a lower cabinet so it wouldn't happen again. Finally, I washed my hands and decided it would just be best to order some food today. Pulling up UberEats, I ordered some Chilli's, per Skeppy's request. Zak had mentioned the "Baby Back Ribs," so I ordered that.

About 25 minutes later the food arrived. I constantly ate, and it was pretty alright. I decided to thank my best friend for the idea and turned on my phone. I skimmed through some Skephalo fanart on Twitter before finally opening up text messages.

My Scoopy

Hey Skeppy! I just wanted to say thanks for your suggestion about Chilli's

Anything for you big daddy

DON'T CALL ME THAT!

Sorry, "Big "Baddy"

Good night Skeppy.

Night Darryl

AHHHHHHH.

I shut off my phone and tucked Rat into her dog bed. The moonlight was drifting in through the window, signifying the day being over. I walked over to my bed and slowly went to sleep, a dream soon entering my mind.

"Come on Bad! Let's go for a walk!" Skeppy begged, and I couldn't help but agree. Grabbing the picnic basket off of the counter, the two of us walked into the grassy meadow, Zak suddenly taking my hand he said, "Your hand is really warm."

I blushed and Scoopy giggled at my response. The two of us then settled into a spot in the grassy meadow on top of a checkered red and white picnic basket. The sun shown down brightly, but the air was cool, especially in the shade of a large oak tree.

The two of us stared into each other's eyes for a moment, and Skeppy leaned in and kissed me softly on the lips...

I suddenly woke up from the dream, confused. Why did I suddenly feel like this? (Stealing a part of a line from a different Skephalo book called Geppy definitely recommend) I always thought that I was as straight as a ruler, but now? I felt like I was a very bendy ruler. Nonetheless it was still late and I went back to sleep, but I couldn't help but wonder... Were these feelings real?
