Sweet As Honey

~Chapter 11~

About an hour in you had more viewers than you had ever had. It matched your following, it must have been some of his. This terrified and excited you, it was a thrill. You had more eyes on you and a new friend.
"So Y/n, tell me your greatest fear." Tubbo shifts in his seat staring at you, smirking.
"Um... irrational is definitely being buried alive. But like the deepest darkest fear that's rational," You pause and Tubbo's smirk fades. He moves his hands to urge you to continue. You know what it is, but you don't want people to think you are weak. "Losing all of my friends." You try to hide your sad expression.
Tubbo's eyes soften. He just stares at you, his expression tender. "Y/n," His tone is soft. It reminds you of something. You just can't tell what. "You are an amazing person. Don't worry about that at all."
"But I'm moving away for college, I'm going to lose all of them." You feel yourself tearing up slightly. You quickly rub your eyes and clear your throat. "Let's just move on from this."
"No." He speaks harshly but still with a kind tone. "You aren't going to lose them. But by the odd chance you do. I care about you. We are friends now. I'll be there for you."
"Did- did you just reference the 'Friends' theme?" You ask, trying to suppress a laugh.
"Oh, I might have." He starts laughing, which in turn causes you to laugh. "You just gloss over the fact that I care about you and talk about a theme song. We are definitely going to be an amazing pair." He falls back in his chair holding his stomach.
"I can't breathe!" You laugh so hard you fall out of your chair. In turn causing you to laugh more. "Ow." You try to climb up into your chair but you just fall over again.
Tubbo is crying by this point, and so are you. The two of you begin to compose yourselves. Tubbo begins to wipe the tears from his face with his forefinger "You are fun to be around Y/n. We should do this more often."
"Yeah. We should. But we have like twenty minutes left here. We should at least try and enjoy that, right?" You fix yourself.
"Yeah we have some time before we have to end," He stares off into space for a moment. "Should I eat. Like real food. All I've had is Monster Munch."
"Yes Tubbo. Please eat something normal." You laugh, shocked that he even has to ask that. You have Gwen hounding you to eat when you stream so you assumed everyone had someone like Gwen.
"Alright when we are done I'll eat something. So like why couldn't Wren do this. Why was I invited?" He asks, swirling around in his chair.
"She was busy, and I wanted to get to know you so I guess I shot my shot, as the kids say." You say as a playful jab at him.
"Good I'm glad you did. But what is Wren doing?" He seems to be genuinely interested in what she's up to.
"Something for her mother most likely. She lives a few states away from me." You respond honestly.
"What state are you from? Be aware I am not the best at knowing where they are but I'll hopefully recognize a name!" Tubbo asks.
"Um. I haven't really ever said that on stream. So I don't really know if I should." You respond, pursing your lips into an awkward expression.
"I don't think anyone is going to stalk you so you should just say it! I've told everyone I live near Brighton." He urges you.
"South Carolina. I live in South Carolina. Happy." You chuckle.
"So I'm guessing that it is near North Carolina?" He says in a joking manner, a smile cracking on his lips. "I'm kidding. It was one of the thirteen colonies," He whispers. "Which are the only ones I can point out." You laugh at his antics.
"Well I'm glad you know it at least. I Feel like someone is going to find me." You joke.
"Trust me, it's nowhere near a big deal. It isn't like no one else told people what state or country they live in. Streamers have lives too so don't worry about anything." Tubbo leans back in his chair and randomly screams. Causing you to laugh. This kid really is fun to be around. He has such a good energy to him that gives him a childlike vibe but he is still professional and adult like.
You look over at the clock, it's time to end the stream. You feel a pang of sadness ring through your chest. You have no idea why, it isn't like you are never going to talk again. But you just look at him on screen and how he's dancing. Your lips curve into a smile and you take a deep breath in.
"Alright you cool cats. That is all the time Mr. Tubbo and I have today. He needs to go eat and I have to go for a run. Thank you for spending your time with us here today. It means the world to me that you even considered clicking here. Have a great morning, afternoon, or night. Drink water. Remember there is someone here that cares about you. Bye bye now all." You click onto your end steam screen watching the comments fly by saying goodbye to you and tubbo. You end your stream and go back into the Discord where Tubbo is waiting patiently and quietly.
"This was fun, Y/n." The way he says your name sounds so familiar. It makes your heart race in the most positive way. You both stay silent, both looking at each other through the screen. A growing tension can be felt around your room. One that you both seem to not want to break. Whatever was happening here scared you.
"It was nice talking to you today, Tubbo." You clear your throat. "I'm glad you were able to do this with me. We seemed to have good stream chemistry." You finish your thought a little louder.
"Yes. It was nice. I'm glad Wren was busy, for if she wasn't this may not have happened." Tubbo gives a childish smile. "Now I'm gonna go eat! Bye bye!" He waves frantically at his camera before he ends the call.
You let out a sigh, this was a very strange day for you. You shut off your equipment and your computer itself. Pushing your chair back you walk over to your nightstand where you've left your phone. Picking it up you see a plethora of messages. Mostly from Gwen and Mandy. The two are freaking out that Tubbo was on your stream.
Gwen is extreme in the amount of messages she sends, her many thoughts that race through her skull need to all come out. But she is always sure to send separate texts so you know it's a new thought. Mandy is just trying to see if you have met Tommy, in the time you've known her she has loved this boy more than anyone else. Seeing how excited they are brings an extremely happy smile to your face. A smile that only gets bigger when you think about how you just spent an hour talking to Tubbo.
