Checking my phone this morning was hell. I start from the most recent and go down. First it was Lanes 100 texts and missed calls to my phone. They all ranged from "Y/N are you alright" to "PLEASE ANSWER YOUR PHONE IM SCARED". I felt horrible not responding to her. She is my closest friend and deserves to know that I was alright. I then move onto Tommy and Tubbo both texting me the same messages like "I'm sorry for pushing you" from Tommy and a simple "are you okay Y/N?" from Tubbo. Others were sent in the group chat or on personal Dm trying to make sure I was alright. Then I got to Wilburs. He had tried to call me twelve times and texted me at least thirty. He had felt so guilty that he had mentioned anything and he thought all of this was his fault as he sent "This is all my fault Y/N I shouldn't have mentioned it. You don't have to forgive me but I'm extremely sorry...". But even though he felt guilty I felt worse that I ignored his calls and texts. I got just as many texts and calls from Ranboo. He left one voicemail on my phone that made me tear up.

"Hey Y/N Im very concerned for you right now. Please when you can, call me back. I want to know you're okay. I feel so shitty that I can't be there for you right now so call me when you can. I want to hear your voice and see your face. Please..."

All of these messages made me both fuzzy and loved inside as well as guilty that I had just left my friends hanging on my status. As soon as I read every message I started to reply to I was alright. I asked everyone to get into a vc as I felt it was my responsibility to tell them what was going on. They didn't deserve to live in the dark not knowing why I had just ghosted them nearly all day yesterday. As I join the vc everyone stops talking bringing full attention to me.

"Hey guys, I wanted to bring you in here to tell you I'm so extremely sorry for ghosting you all yesterday. It was none of yours fault and no one should feel guilty because of what happened. This was something personal that happened in myself that caused this. I will explain to you what happened as I believe all of you deserve to know the reason I was afk. Please bear with me as I explain this because it does get very intense."

After I mutter those words I get reassuring noises come through the headset as I being to explain my story. At the end of my explanation I hear sniffling from Niki. I wish I was there to give her a hug. Wil then responds to my explanation.

"Y/N thank you so much for telling us this. Even though you haven't known us for that long I think I speak for everyone here to say that I really appreciate your openness."

There are more affirming noises in the call. I take a deep breath of relief as I've wanted to mention that to someone ever since it had happened. I hadn't even told Lane this story. The only thing I told Lane about the entire situation is the first bad comment and that I quit streaming and said it wasnt for me. She begins to cry the hardest and most apparent in the call.

"Y/N why didn't you tell me... I would have kicked their fucking ass. You shouldn't have gone through that alone..."

A small smile rises to my face because I know how much Lane loves me and cares about my well being.

"I didn't want to be a bother. During that time you were going through your own journey and I couldn't bring this onto you."

Lane starts crying more and she leaves the call. I get a little concerned as I try to text her and there is no response. After about 10min and talking with everyone I hear a knock on my door. I inform everyone of the knock and go answer my door leaving the set up. As I open the door a boulder of weight hits me and I tumble to the ground. I know exactly what this mass on top of me is and I hug as tight as I can tears threatening to fall. A big smile plastered on my face as both of us get up. Lane looks like a mess. Tears down her face and a hoodie and shorts on no effort put into the outfit. I let out a little chuckle as I spy her stitch socks poking out of her crocks. She looks down to where I was looking and also let's out a small chuckle. We both head back to my set up and I let Lane sit in my chair having the headset. I cant hear anything the people in the call are saying but I assume it's about me as Lane speaks.

"Yes he's is doing alright, laughed at my socks so that's an amazing sign."

I let out a loud chuckle and she turns to me with a smile on her face relieved that I'm doing alright today. The rest of the day goes on like this. Lane stays with me and we watch a ton of movies. I even got a FaceTime call from Ranboo that night and me and Lane listened to Ranboos favorite artist Lemon Demon for the first time with him. Overall a great night. I couldn't ask for better friends and was relieved that they cared so much for me even thought I had only met them 5 days ago. I can wait to meet up with them again, hangout, hug them, and overall enjoy our quality time again.
