"I like everything about you... Especially your voice..! It sounds so pretty"
"Shush... Y-you're embarrassing me..."
~~♠♣♥♦~~
It was now time. Time for Toby to start his media share stream.
I was just laying on his bed, chilling and just on my phone, while Toby greets his chat.
Nothing bad or weird happen at first, but I did end up finding myself staring at Toby. My eyes kept watch of his form and I somehow couldn't look away...
But shortly after, I stopped when I had a sudden force collide with my face. I hissed out in slight pain since the thing that hit my face was my phone, landing really hard on my nose.
I placed both of my fingers over the bridge of my nose to stop the pain- or at least try to.
Because of the sudden sound and my movements, was in view of Toby's webcam and people from his chat donated, asking about me.
"O-ohh..! Well, uhh-- Y/N, can you come over here for a second?" He asked
After getting my nose to stop being in pain, I sat up from is bed and walked over to him and his webcam.
"Hello~" I said with a simple wave
"Okay- so- you see chat- this is Y/N. She was my childhood best friend since I was in primary..! She's just here visiting me..!" Toby says
The chat proceeds to spam how pretty I was. Apparently I was gather a swarm of simps.
"Huh. Chat seems pretty lively" I mutter
"Uhh- yeah.. They usually are like this..!" He says
"Welp, chat. Be funny. Make him laugh. Good luck all you lovely plebs" I hum, walking back over to his bed
"Wha-?? You're on their side now??" He exclaimed
"I mean- it is a laugh you lose challenge. I want to see who makes you laugh" I say
"Well- I won't lose..!" He states
"Wanna bet on that good sir?" I questioned
"What do you have in mind?" He asked
"Idk, how about winner gets to tell the loser what to do" I say
"wha..? I'm doing the challenge, not you" He says
"Well, ima join in on this challenge" I say, walking over beside him, pulling up a chair and sitting beside him
"Oh? Uhh, okay! Haha, you better be good chat..!" He says "We both have 3 lives, remember that..!"
We then joined our headphones together with a joint cord plug and we both listened along to the sounds, as well as the media shares.
A lot of them were just a bunch about Tommyinnit and Wilbur, or rare occasions there was actual weird stuff.
"Wow chat, be more funny" Toby said in a taunting tone to his chat
Then, it gave me an idea.
I quickly pulled out my phone, then donated messaged Hiria- aka: 2.0 U/N. And told her to send a funny video as a media share to Tubbo's stream.
Hiria saw the dono message as soon as it sent and I soon noticed a video pop up shortly after.
(i'd like yall to skip to about 9:52 and just watch the rest of the video. Idk, these videos were my childhood.) (p.s: og's remember what the original video was.)
And though Toby looked absolutely mortified. He then soon laughed as loud as I expected it.
Luckily, I knew what the video was, but even I had a hard time stopping myself from laughing. It really was a weird video.
And once it was done, I smirked.
"Couldn't help but laugh at that?" I ask him
"O-okay- look- it was pretty funny- okay?" Toby says "A-and- wait- U/N..!! What the hell??"
"U/N is literally screwing you over with those cursed media shares- lol" I say, going back to my phone to message Hiria to tell Dria and Loveless to start spamming the media shares too
As more flooded in, Toby was trying his hardest not to laugh. Since- we actually do have bloody humor.
"U/N...! Why are you doing this?? Aren't you in the middle of streaming??" Toby asked
I smirked. Sure, she's streaming, but under my command. It's expected Hiria would flock to me and do my bidding. Like hell- she's even making Dria and Loveless use her own damn money. Since I don't see anything being retracted from mine.
And by the 50 minute mark, Toby ended up laughing so loud, losing his last life, while I still had all mine.
"Welp, looks like I win..!" I smirk
"A-awww mann..." He muttered "You're too good at this..."
"I guess so... But I guess they just don't know my kind of humor" I shrugged
"What is your kind of humor?" He questioned
"Who even knows anymore? It's just hard for me to laugh at times. So you were at a disadvantage from the beginning, lol" I say
"Oh bruh" Was all he said
"And now... For your command...." I trailed off
Toby's eyes widen at the word "C-command..?" He stuttered out
"Wait- wait- no. You know what I mean. Forfeit? Look, I'm not the best with wordplay..." I mention "...And for your forfeit. I want you to play a song..."
"...Do you have one in mind?" He asks
"Actually... I want to see you play on ukulele. I've seen a lot of times when you played piano on stream, but never really on the uke" I say "It would be a nice treat"
"A-alright, uhh... Let me just go grab one" He says, standing up and walking over to the blue uke that was hung on the wall
Once he comes back over, he sat down and he turned his chair slightly to face me. He quickly tunes the instrument, every note that sounded through the quiet room sounded so nice. Despite it being untuned so horribly, the sound the strings made echoed through the room and made me feel slightly at peace. And after a minute, he finally finishes tuning the instrument and began playing.
Every string that was strummed played a nice tune. A tune that I could listen to forever. And not to mention... What song he played on the uke.
Somewhere Over The Rainbow...
It's such a classic song. I never practiced it for myself, but I have played it during classes when we were forced to strum along to the song.
Though, it was nice. Hearing those strings... and his voice sing those words.
He didn't sing that loud, but enough for me and the chat to hear.
And while he played the tune, his cheeks were infuriated by red blush. It was quite adorable, and I think chat noticed it too. Since they were spamming a bunch of fucking 'awweees'.
"Someday I'll wish upon a star" He sung out as he continued to strum
"Wake up where the clouds are far behind me"
"Wake up where the clouds are far behind me~"
Toby froze up for a moment and he just stared at me.
"Hey- don't stop. Keep playing" I say, another smile tugging up my lips
"U-uhmm... R-right...!" He snaps out of his daze and continued to play
"Where trouble melts like lemon drops" He sung out
"High above the chimney top that's where you'll find me" I sung after him
"Oh, somewhere over the rainbow way up high..!~" We sung together
"And the dream that you dare to" I sung
"Why, oh why can't I? I" He continued
We both sung the outro together, smiling and grooving along with each strum. And when the song came to an end, Toby leaned back in his chair and held the ukulele by it's neck.
"I didn't know you could sing..!!" He exclaimed
"Oh please- I've been told I sound horrible when I sing" I admit
"What?? Whoever told you that was obviously lying..! You sounded amazing..!" He said "And... Strangely enough, you remind me of someone..."
Ah-
"Hmm? who?" I question
"Eh- nevermind. It's an odd thought- Well, I think it's time to end the stream then..!" He says
"Yeah, you go do that... I'll be over there" I say, pointing towards to where I was before joining his stream
But before I left the chair, I noticed a donation pop up in chat that shocked me.
U/N donated $1000
"Ship :3"
So upon seeing the unholy message I went into a coughing fit.
Hiria- for fucks sake-
"Wh-What??!?!" Toby exclaimed, jumping back in his chair
I assumed he was shocked about the money, rather than the actual message itself-
"Yeah- going back over there..." I mutter, taking off the headphones and throwing myself on his bed
While Toby was spazzing like a little weirdo, I was just on my phone, checking out what's new on twitter and Instagram. As expected, nothing much happen- at least nothing serious. Until I saw clips from Toby's stream already posted- like what the fuck. It hasn't even officially ended yet- and it wasn't even that long ago when that bit was done.
I let out a sigh and turned over on my side to look at Toby. He was still talking to his stream, responding to donations, gifted subs and thanking everyone for being there.
I decided to get up and quickly go to the bathroom to wash my face. Leaving the room, I walked to where I remembered the bathroom being, only for me to see two little girls brushing their teeth in the bathroom.
I assumed they were Teagan and Lani, though I didn't know who was who.
When we all locked eyes with eachother, they looked clearly confused.
"Uhhhmm... Who are you?" One of the girls asked me
"Uhh... Y/N. I'm one of Toby's friends. How about you two?" I ask
"I'm Lani" Lani says
"And i'm Teagan... We're Toby's sisters" Teagan says
"Oh... Well, nice to meet you two..." I say, giving them an awkward smile
"You need to use the bathroom?" Lani questions me
"Uhh, just the sink. I wanted to wash my face a little" I say
"Oh- go ahead" Teagan says, letting her and Lani step back
I nodded and smiled at them before quickly turning on the sink and splashing water on my face. I dried my hands with my sleeves and upon doing so, Lani spoke up.
"You know, you're actually really pretty..." Lani suddenly said
"Huh? Uhh.. Thank you... You two look very pretty yourselves" I replied back to them with a smile
"Are you going to be staying the night? Or will you be going soon?" Teagan asked
"Uhh, I'll be heading back home in a little bit. Since I did promise to be back by at least midnight" I mention
"Awww... That sucks" Teagan mutters
"How about you spend time with us next time you come here? I have a lot of questions to ask...!" Lani says
"Oh, for sure" I say
I waved them goodbye and went back into Toby's room. He had finally ended the stream and is now laying on his bed, head facing up to look at his bedroom ceiling.
I decided to walk over and casually flop myself onto his stomach. He jolts up a little at the sudden impact and is just laying completely still.
"W-what are you doing..??" He asks
"Just chillin', you?" I question
"U-uhh... Laying down?? C-can you get off me?" He asked me
"Oh come onnn, we use to do this all the time as kids. It's nothing that bad, isn't it? Or are you saying that because I've gained weight?" I say in a teasing tone
"It's not like that..! It's just... u-uhhhh...." He trails off
"okayy... fineee... I'll get off...." I slide off of him and rest my head against the mattress, scrolling through my phone once again
It was silent in the room for a while. Nothing but peaceful silence. I liked it, though, I'm not sure about how Toby felt. Maybe I should talk to him more...
"So, was my visit here bad?" I asked
"H-huh? No! I really liked you here with me..!" He said "I-I meant-- I liked having you visit me..."
"Haha... Yeah... I'm actually happy I visited now..." I say
"O-oh?" He questioned
"Yeah, visiting you was actually the best choice..." I said
"Oh! I'm glad I didn't bore you to death...!" He says
"Bore me? How could you ever bore me? I mean... You're you Toby..." I say
Silence fills the room once again.
Did I make things weird? I think I did. I should really find a better way to word things... Maybe I should write down a list of conversation topics for next time...
Then, a knock was heard at Toby's door, opening it revealed it was his mother.
"Y/N, your friend is here to pick you up" Mrs. Smith said
And that's where disappointment filled my heart.
"Oh... alright..." I say, standing up from the floor
"Toby dear, how about you show Y/N out the door?" Mrs. Smith asks
"O-oh, okay..!" Toby says, standing up from his bed
We then walk out of his room and downstairs to the front door. Waiting there... was none other then.... Hiria.
Oh fuck.
"Wait... Hiria...???" Toby reacted pretty shocked
"Haha..! Heyy Tubb-boyy~ Just here to collect a little someone" Hiria says
Toby turns to me, shocked.
"Y-you know Hiria??" Toby asked
"Uhhh, yeah...." I bluntly say
"Yeahhh, come on Y/N. Let's head back~" Hiria chuckled, slinging an arm around my neck
"Uhh, okay" I say, I then turned a little to face Toby who still seemed to be shocked "Well I'll see you another time Toby. Have a good night. Text you when I can"
Me and Hiria then leave the house, and I noticed her limo.
"...Did you actually have to bring the fucking limo?" I questioned
"Well, you must be exhausted when you arrived there. You do seem a little drained so I brought a comfortable ride" Hiria says
"...You knew he was Tubbo, didn't you" I say
"I mean- it did seem quite obvious. No offence~" Hiria purred, opening the door for me to get in
I climbed in the limo and so did she, Hiria motions the driver to get going and we drove off in the direction of my house.
"...I hate that you like him, you know..." Hiria says
"Hmm?" I questioned
"You have a crush on Tubbo, right? I can see it on your face. You still like him" Hiria says "But he hated you. Remember? He hated the real you..."
"...Crescent is still a little different from me" I state
"...huh?" Hiria questioned
"Crescent is more angsty than me. Sure, I can make dark humored jokes and be as pissy as I want as her. But that's her. Just like how U/N is more happy and overall loving to others. I'm quiet. I don't say things I shouldn't. I don't have opinions. That's who I am" I say "And I thought you knew that"
"...Yeah. Yeah... You are... You're right... Why did I assume?" Hiria murmured "You two are perfect for eachother. Him the sun and you the moon- yada- yada...."
"Are you really that upset?" I question
"Yes. I sometimes wish you were gay for me" Hiria admitted, not ashamed at all
"Wow, kay" I muttered
The drive home wasn't anything weird anymore, Hiria cleared up things with me and explained a few things that made me understand more about her feelings.
She's everything I could ever ask for in a friend. A shame she has feelings for me.
I sometimes wonder how bad her pain is.
