Summary: To some people, relationship labels aren't important. To some they aren't important only in theory. Well, Y/N finds out she falls in the later category, leading to a falling out with her boyfriend Corpse.

--------

The time is nearing 7PM and Corpse has barely eaten anything. I always keep track of his meals and time spent in front of a computer screen, making sure he doesn't spend too much time exhausting his eyes or starving himself. He never notices he's hungry until he takes a bite of something and his appetite grows in matter of seconds. The real battle is to get him to take that first bite.

I get up from the couch, walking into the kitchen. I open the fridge, scanning its contents for any ideas that might pop into my head for dinner. When nothing comes to mind, I resort to my last option - asking him. There's only a slight chance he'll be of any help. He'll most likely say he's not hungry or that he'll make himself something late. He never does. I've gotten used to him being a man-child when it comes to eating. In the eleven months that we've been dating, I've force fed him more times than he has eaten on his own terms.

I go upstairs, stopping outside the door to his recording room to see if he's talking to someone so I don't walk in and interrupt. When no noises come from the inside I knock.

"Come in."

Upon opening the door, I'm met with Corpse nonchalantly sitting in his desk chair, leaning as back as he can without tipping over. Arms folded behind his head, legs stretched out in front of him. The whole nine yards, suggesting that he not streaming.

"Hey." He greets me as he turns his chair a bit in an attempt to face me

"Hey, what'd you like for dinner?" He opens his mouth to reply the millisecond after I have spoken my question. I already know what that reply will be so I hurry to prevent it, "And no, 'later' and 'I'm not hungry' aren't on the menu."

He sighs, shaking his head as though he's disappointed that I caught onto his game. The smile that slowly makes its way to his lips, however, suggests that he appreciates my concern. "Grilled cheese sandwiches? I mean, if you feel like it."

I smile, relieved that the usual convincing portion of our interaction on this specific matter has been avoided. "Ok. Be down in fifteen then." I give him a nod before heading back out into the hallway.

Before I am able to close the door, I hear someone else's voice come from behind me. "Hey Corpse, was that on your end?"

Oh shit, he wasn't muted

"Yeah man, sorry. Accidentally unmuted myself." Corpse sounds unbothered by this, but I am a little uneasy now.

Corpse and I have agreed to keep our relationship by a 'won't ask, won't tell' rule - if someone asks him if he's in a relationship, he won't lie and say no, but we haven't gone public nor do we plan on doing so without someone asking us about it head-on. Well, not us. Him. His friends don't know me and neither do his fans. I'm not in the same industry. I don't stream nor film YouTube videos. The most I do for that platform is help Corpse with some editing when he needs to have a rest. So, if anyone were to reveal our relationship, it'd be him.

"Oooh, who was that?" A girl's voice asks teasingly. "Corpse, what are you not telling us?"

By this point, I'm out in the hall but I left my ears in the room. I know I'm not in the right here - eavesdropping is most definitely not nice, but I can't help myself.
