Behind The Screen

A Whole Different Person

Hearing my parents door close after them walking around for hours, I knew my waiting was finally over. I got up out of bed changed into a more formal outfit, and walked over to my pc setup. I started getting set up for a stream. Opening stream labs, and twitch I clicked start. I sat there staring at my starting soon screen while my viewers started rolling in, after getting the notification that I was streaming. Once I saw about 20k people on I decided to unmute, and stop the music that was playing.

"Hello everyone, how is everybody's day going so far," I spoke smiling as I pulled my face cam up.  When I looked over to the chat I saw many people greeting me, and responding to my question. I was surprised to see that not many people were asking about my new setup, and background as I never told them that I was l moving to a different country.

"If you couldn't tell I moved!" I excitedly said, even though I was not happy about it. "I start a new school on Monday, which means I have to make new friends," I exclaimed while doing jazz hands showing that I was clearly not excited at all.

"Anyways chat shall we start playing some minecraft?" I asked chat, while scanning for what they were saying I pulled up the minecraft tab that I had open already changing, from just my face cam to minecraft. "What do we do today hmmmm. Survival, bedwars, or maybe some mini games your choice chat." I calmly stated, while the mods started a poll on what we should do. After it had ended, it seemed that survival had won. "Looks like we are doing a speedrun today," I happily said, letting a sigh out knowing it was going to be a long night.

After loading into the world I got started right away, mining some wood, getting tools, and doing the other things you do when speedrunning. All while this was happening I was noting the time that this was all taking knowing my parents will wake up as early as 4am to get ready for the day, and I wasn't about to get in trouble after just moving here. By the time I had reached the end it was around 3:30am in the morning... Curse me for being bad at speedrunning. 

"Chat were almost done finally, remind me to never let you guys pick what were doing again," I laughed a little bit. But then got straight back to focusing on the game taking out all the end crystals, as fast as I could. All while keeping an eye at the time. Then just like that the ender dragon was dead. 

"Yes, finally its dead. I swear I'm never doing that again it took way too long." I smiled at the chat. Seeing some congrats, and gg messages rolling in. Then I looked at the time 3:50am. I was running on borrowed time here. So I quickly thanked the dono's, and subs. Then said bye to chat. Closing out of all my tabs I checked the time once more 3:57am. "Shit," I silently cursed at myself. 

Shutting down my pc completely, before heading to where I had discarded my "pajamas" that I was wearing before. I quickly put them on before hiding what I was wearing before under my bed. I then jumped into bed, getting under my covers right before I heard my door open. It was my dad.  

I heard his foot steps as they got closer, and closer to my bed. Then slowly he kneeled down to my face. I could tell he was staring at me, even through my closed eyes. I then heard him get up and close the door. But I knew he still there standing there right next to the door, seeing if I was actually awake and not just hiding it. He had done this often so I knew what was happening. It isn't until I hear that he had finally entered their room again can I open my eyes. I probably could've opened them sooner but I like to take extra precautions, considering if I was ever caught it probably wouldn't end well. 

As I slowly opened my eyes I sat there staring into the darkness thinking. What would my life be like if my parents weren't so strict. If only I had a normal life, with normal parents it would be so much easier. I sighed knowing that, that would never happen. Soon my eyes became heavy and I drifted to sleep.

Hey guys sorry for the short chapters, promise I'm working on making them longer. I hoped you liked this chapter as I don't really enjoy writing the streams, because they are just very hard to do, and stressful. Anyways I hope you have a great day :) Expect an update sometime soon
