What It's Like To Be In Love

Ella

I put on my headphones, turned up my volume, and clicked the call.

It got silent once I joined and I unmuted my mic to start talking.
The account I didn't seem to recognize spoke up "um... hi.. who're you, again?" Her voice was like a anime girl, maybe a bit deeper, but it was adorable.

"Didn't I met you?" I answered "your name is Ella, correct?" It was silent again when I heard an "ohh" from her, it seemed like it she sat up and went to the other side of the room because of how faded it sounded.
"You're that dude who's friends with Michael, right? I did recognize your name when you joined the call..."
"Yeah."
"Well.. Um.. I'm gonna go now, bye guys!"
Ella disconnected from the call and it was silent for about a minute when one by one everyone started to leave.
I left the call last and logged on to our Minecraft server to see Jacob and Caden arguing in the chat who was gonna win Ella over.

They were rambling on and on for about five minutes when Jacob seemed to notice me, walked over to me, and killed me, taking all the items I had collected, including my music discs which took forever to find.

I left and just started watching YouTube, Wilbur Soot and Sapnap can entertain me for the next nine hours or so.

After about an hour of watching them, I decided I should probably eat, I haven't eaten in about fourteen hours anyway and it didn't seem to bother me, I didn't even get hungry anyway.

I walked downstairs and saw Liam glued to the TV with his counsel in his hands and trash all over the floor from gaming half of the night and afternoon.

"It's past your bedtime" I muttered, opening the fridge and grabbing a bottle of Ginger Ale.
"Go away."
"Hm.." I set the bottle on the counter and took some cold pizza, I didn't have time to heat it up anyway.
I grabbed the bottle and cold pizza, headed back upstairs and laid down in my cold bed, listening to Cavetown, drinking Ginger Ale, eating cold pizza, and staring at the ceiling.

I eventually fell asleep and went to the bathroom to wash my face, which is something I haven't done in a while.
Staring at my self in the mirror, I could see bags under my eyes and redness covering the whiteness of my eye.
Splashing cold water on my face felt good, like I was falling in an sink full of ice.

I finished washing my face with my cleanser and went downstairs, to see my mother on her computer, she had been working since yesterday night and let Liam game all night so he could leave her alone to do work.

She sipped something from a mug and didn't even acknowledge me walking by her, even when I loudly opened the fridge and grabbed out some milk.
I took out a cup and poured the milk into it, taking a sip of the cold milk.
"Hi." I said to my mom which she replied with "I'm working, leave me alone."
I wish dad was still here, I wish she hadn't thrown that knife, I wish I could still talk to him.
But that didn't matter right now, I've got to check Discord and talk to my friends, and make sure they stay my friends.

I walked back upstairs and went into my room, started up my PC, and opened Discord up.

When I went to the website, I was logged out, which I didn't do the night before, I never log out of my accounts. Ever.

I quickly typed in my email and passcode and successfully made it into my account, which was still there, thank god.

But something was different, something seemed quite off.
I went to check my servers and half of them we're gone. The only ones who were left are ones I'm rarely active in and the server me and my friends made together.

I went onto the general text channel and asked if they knew anything  about my account being hacked..?
Everyone responded with a no, except one person, Ella.

"They hacked into your account and removed about almost all your friends, servers, and said some quite rude things to strangers." I read in my head.

At least Ella was truthful.
At least I can trust someone.
At least all I had was  our server.

I asked all of them to join a VC (voice chat) in the lobby to discuss the situation.
They all responded with a no but Ella said yes.

We chatted for about 30 minutes, maybe less and she explained everything.
Alastor told everyone me and Ella were dating and got all the guys jealous since they all want Ella (except Michael because that's his cousin) and that made them hack into his account and change some things around.

When we first created our server, we all gave their passwords to their accounts to see if their trustful, and they were, well, at the time they were.
