The guys stay for a bit longer, but I decide to leave, looking forward to a 13 hour nap.

"Hey guys I think I'm gonna go early, I'm so tired I'm literally gonna piss myself." I say rubbing my eyes.

The guys laugh and I rethink what I said.

"Wait... no... yes? What'd I say?"

" Ok, no I'm driving you home, you look way too tired." Karl interrupts

"As if you look any better."

"I've stayed awake for like 3 days straight before, I'll be fine."

"I'll be okay it's not like I'm drunk or anything."

"Yea... you look pretty drunk anyways."

"Excuse me?" Throughout the video, I somehow managed to get my hair in a "medium" ponytail with half of the hair falling out of the band. Not to mention dark circles."

"Let's goooooo" Karl pushes me out the door.

"Oh sorry... what's your address?"

"Hmm? oh it's: xxx xxxxxxxx xx x x. x x "

The more I think about it in the car, the more sketchy it feels. A guy I barely know driving me "home" when I'm super tired. Whatever I'm too tired to think, besides, Karl's a good guy... I think.

I wake up in my bedroom. Nothing happened, right? 

I check the time and see it's almost midnight, hmm guess I didn't actually sleep for that long. I get up to go to the kitchen and get something to eat.

Karia's watching tv, but shuts it off as soon as she sees me.

"Good morn- night? Sleepyhead?"

"What happened?"

"Oh that Karl guy carried you in. It was hilarious, you were passed out, drooling and everything."

"Oh no that's so embarrassing" I cover my eyes and sit on the couch.

"He seemed super awkward about it. But when he knocked on the door I got like super scared because you know, who wouldn't. You were passed out and he was carrying you in. I literally pulled you out of his arms... it was pretty funny but your fineeeee. I pushed you to your room and you just walked to your bed. The end."

"Huh. Interesting story, I will never be leaving this apartment ever again."

"Anywayyssss, how was your first day at work?"

"Ok let me go make some hot cocoa and I'll tell you."

"Sounds good to me." She cuddles up under a fluffy blanket as i make two cups of hot chocolate.

I tell her every detail of what happened that day.

"OK YOU COULDN'T HAVE STARTED OFF BY SAYING THAT YOU WON $50,000 ARE YOU SERIOUS SOL THAT'S INSANE. WE CAN PAY OUR RENT, OUR DEBT, UGH I LOVE THIS JIMMY GUY YOUR JOB IS AMAZING."

"Yea I still can't wrap my head around it."

"But when you're all rich and stuff, we'll still be best friends, right?"

"Of course, I'm hurt that you think that I could do such a thing. But besides the point, how was your day?"

"Ok well when you ask about my day, everything's gonna sound boring."

"No it won't! Working at a candle store is so entertaining!" I say sarcastically.

"Fineee, so today was inven-"

"BORING" I cut her off.

"Ok you can be so mean sometimes!" She punches me.

"Love ya too sis" I say as I put our mugs in the sink and head to my room.

I check twitch and see that Karl's streaming. I should probably turn his notifications on. I follow and turn on notifications. I tier 1 sub to him to make him feel awkward.

"Thank you realc-..." he pauses then calls Quackity without another word.

"Hi, yes, Alex? This candle girl won't stop stalking me, h e l p."

I giggle. This man can make a bit out of anything. I stare down at my phone, looking at the number from earlier that texted me. Karl's number. I look at the contact and change
it to: karl 🥸👵. I decided to take a picture of him when he's not looking on another day for his contact photo.

don't call me a stalker

karl 🥸👵: what do i call you then? A falconer?

karl 🥸👵: dont ask i was looking up synonyms for stalker

I look up at the stream and see Karl blushing and smiling. That boy is funny.

i can see you blushing and smiling, im on your stream, remember 

He looks at his phone again then goes bright red.

karl 🥸👵: im not blushing or smiling

Every time he read my texts he smiled, he's fun to embarrass. After about 15 seconds, he put his answer as guys please, and got a quiplash against Quackity himself.
