ONE ~ so cocky

"George, why do I need to do this? You're the 'influencer' here!" I was raging at George, who once again was trying to get me to do something for his youtube or something. I didn't really listen, to be honest. 

"Jas, it will be fun! Just filming a video together. Maybe you can be in more stuff in the future if you want. Be happy Tommy isn't pushing you to do a video with him."

"I don't want to do anything with your fucking video shit! It's stupid. I'm already moving to Florida with you. I'm very grateful for that, but just shut up about filming together! I don't want it!"

He sighed, "I was just asking. I think you will be very good at it, and you would probably enjoy it. You can talk to my friends already. They will be coming to the UK in a week and were going to move to their next-door house in less than a month."

"Well, we don't have to record for me to meet them you know?" I said, knowing he has a point. 

"Okay! We can get on call, and maybe we can record something when they are here?" I scrunch up, "if you're up for it!" He laughed awkwardly.

"We will see, but getting on call will be okay I guess," he let out a little cheer and immediately ran up the stairs. I slightly laughed and shook my head, before heading up the stairs and following him into his room. 
He was already booting up his PC, and I took a chair on the other side of his room and moved it to his desk. He was fiddling with the computer a bit before some yelling came out of the speakers. 

"GEORGE!" A voice yelled, and I immediately put my hands on my ears. Who can be so fucking loud? George put down the volume before another voice spoke.

"GEORGE!" Okay, I don't know why he's friends with these people. 

"Hey guys, well as you probably know my sister is moving with me to Florida, and she will be here when you guys are here, so we thought maybe it would be good to already have an introduction."

I already peeled my hands off my head when he put the volume down. There were some hums and okay's, so I went to introduce myself. 

"Well okay, uhm, I'm Jasmin. I just turned 21 last month and uhm, yeah," I awkwardly laughed and looked at George for some help. He smiled at me and one of the voices began to talk. 

"I'm Sapnap, I'm 20 and an amazing gamer," the voices of the computer laughed and George too.

"Sapnap, interesting name," I laughed.

 "Well, it's Nick, but-"

"YOU LIED TO ME!" I fake gasped with earned laugher from everybody.

"Sapnap is his online name. I'm Clay, by the way, I'm also 21, but turning 22 soon enough. I go by Dream online, and I'm actually the amazing gamer of the three of us." This guy sounds so cocky, so I stayed silent, not wanting to deal with him. 

"Okay, would you guys like to play a game?" George asked, trying to break the tension. 

"Hmm, I have work in a bit. I think I'm going to head out," I stated. I got up for my seat and walked to the door until George caught my arm. I looked back at him and he was looking at me with pleading eyes. I rolled my eyes at him.

"When does work start?"

"At 4 pm."

"It's only 3 pm. Please stay for a bit," I sighed and got back in my seat. I talked a bit but mostly got silent whenever Clay tried to be funny or asked me something. Which he did quite a lot because he thinks he is so funny and needs affirmation of that every 10 seconds. 

"Hey! We never got to see your face, Jasmin!" Nick said. 

"I didn't get to see yours!" I laughed, "but we can turn face cams on for a bit."

George went on discord to turn our webcam on and Nick turned on his, but Clay's icon didn't budge. 

Not so cocky now huh, I huffed. 

"I'm sorry what did you say?" George asked me with raised eyebrows. Fuck. Didn't mean to say that out loud. Ah fuck it, Clay can handle some ego damage. 

"That Clay isn't so cocky anymore," I rolled my eyes and Nick let out a short laugh, while George looked at me with wide eyes.

"What?" I questioned him.

"Just, surprised," he turned back to the screen, still wide-eyed. I looked at my phone to see the time.

"Oh fuck, I really need to get going now. Bye!" I waved at the camera and messed up George's hair and practically ran out of his room to go to the cafe I worked in. 

I got home, a bit over 11 pm. George was in the kitchen. It looked like he was doing an attempt to make a grilled cheese sandwich. 

"Hmm, smells good. I love the smell of burned cheese."

He flinched, "oh your home, I nearly had a heart attack. Don't question my cooking skills."

I hummed and went to the pantry to grab a pack of crips.

"Hey, uhm Jas, Dream asked me to say this to you, because he was kind of hurt by the comment you made earlier." I huffed and let out a small laugh.

"His ego couldn't handle it?" 

"No like, he's faceless and I just recently saw his face. I've known him for a few years now and he just showed it to me. It's something he keeps really private."

"He's going to be here in less than a week, so I don't see the problem." I huffed and walked to the living room with George behind me, I plopped on the couch.

"That's his choice, but yeah just so you know. You were pretty harsh toward him."

"He was doing as if he owned the place, I hate it when people are so overly confident. Like confidence is a good thing, but you can go overboard. He was just kind of acting like a dick."

"He was literally nothing other than nice to you! He wasn't even acting overly confident, and I don't think it's fair to call him a dick." He frowned.

"Pffft, yeah right. I don't care,"  I turned Netflix on and resumed the episode I was watching earlier today. George just sat quietly beside me, acting like his grilled cheese sandwich he made was actually edible. I have my doubts.
