But, you're just a computer... [SQUIP x Fem. Reader]

Michael- I'm sorry! Okay?! - Chapter 12

Y/n's mom looked at Y/n and Eric. "She's dating someone else? Wow, okay." She nervously laughed. Y/n's mother was actually quite disappointed that Eric and Y/n weren't dating, she could tell that Eric loved Y/n uncontrollably, so seeing him emotionally hurt because Y/n wouldn't notice his feelings just internally harmed Y/n's mom.

But it was even worse for Eric.

He was dying on the inside. Crying. Screaming. Sobbing. Yelling. Bawling. Just begging for help from anybody. Every time Y/n slightly thought of Jake, Eric's heart would break a little more, hence why he was being so quiet all day and night. But after what Y/n's mom said, he was ready to break. Eric was so prepared to glitch onto someone's bed and bawl his eyes out.

He wanted to talk to somebody about what's going on in his head, like Y/n's mother. But he was too anxious, he was on the edge of shattering to a million pieces. He couldn't tell if this feeling was a sign of weakness or if it was a bug that came with the Love update.

But for Y/n, it was a little different.

Y/n was still confused about her feelings. She loved to hang out and be with Eric, but she was now dating Jake, so now she was just feeling confused. She wasn't even sure what she was confused about, but it was definitely something.

——Back to Y/n (Your) POV!—— 

"Yes, I am indeed dating someone else, SO STOP MAKING JOKES ABOUT ERIC AND ME!" I yelled at my mom.

My mom pats my head. "I'll consider it." And she then just walked away.

I huffed and threw myself on the couch. "She's such a pain in the ass..." I groaned.

"Let's focus on what we should do now, we should continue to focus on your popularity goal. So, how about we go to the mall just look around." Eric prompted.

I raised an eyebrow. "What good will just 'looking around' do?" I asked.

"Since today is Sunday, a lot of people who go to your school are at the mall, and since you are already quite popular, if they see you there buying expensive stuff, they will come to the conclusion that you also have a lot of money," Eric explained.

I looked at him with a puzzled face. "But I'm kinda broke," I answered. Eric smirked and rolled his eyes. He reached into my jacket pocket and pulled out my wallet. "HEY!" I said, trying to grab it back but he held it just high enough for me not being able to reach it. (Everyone does this to me IRL because I'm a smol bean)

"This wallet contains your debit card, correct?" He asked.
