Ruined Reputation

The next day, Stefon woke up early.

Stefon quietly got up from Seth's bed, grabbed his GoPro and Macbook, and went downstairs. After that, he transferred the video of him and Seth having sex the night before from the GoPro to his Macbook. Stefon thought, "Last night was so damn hot."

Once the transfer was finished, Stefon uploaded the video to his iCloud.

As the video was uploaded successfully, Stefon shut down his Macbook and started cooking breakfast. Seth smelled the food being cooked, which woke him up shortly after. Once he made the bed, he went downstairs and immediately rushed to the kitchen.

Seth proceeded to give Stefon a hug from behind.

Then, he asked, "What are you cooking, Stefon?" Stefon smiled and replied, "Eggs and toast." Seth grabbed a spoon from his kitchen drawer and scooped a small amount of scrambled eggs that Stefon cooked. After that, Seth tasted the cooked scrambled eggs.

Seth was taken aback by how delicious the eggs tasted.

He told Stefon, "You're such a good cook, Stefon." Stefon replied, "Thank you, Seth Meyers." A few minutes after Stefon finished cooking, Seth went to the dining table as Stefon made cups of coffee for both of them. Stefon came to the dining table shortly after.

Both of them ate breakfast afterwards.

Two weeks since Stefon secretly recorded him and Seth having sex, John sent Seth a text message all of a sudden one day.

Seth felt confused by this and thought, "What's going on?" As he opened iMessage in his iPhone, he quickly tapped on John's name.

The message that John sent him said:

"hey, Seth. I know that it's your day-off today, but could you stop by my office real quick? you and I need to have a talk about something."

Seth felt even more confused after reading the message.

He thought, "Maybe I'm getting some sort of a random thing? What could be this thing that he wants me to talk about with him? Whatever it is, I hope it's something good." Seth made his way to the studio where they were shooting Saturday Night Live afterwards.

As he arrived, Seth immediately went to John's office.

John motioned for him to come inside, so Seth entered the office. After that, John asked him, "Do you have any idea why I called for you here today?" Seth shook his head and asked back, "What's going on, John? Is... whatever this is, something really serious?"

John clasped his hands together and nodded.

A few seconds later, John cleared his throat and said, "Well, Seth... As you clearly noticed walking in here, nobody's at work today except you and me." Seth nodded slowly. John continued talking, saying, "I don't know if you know about this, but..."

John sighed heavily.

Seth then asked, "Do I need to be aware about something, John?" John nodded and replied, "There's been a video circulating on the Internet lately that sees both you and Stefon having sex. It's since been making the rounds on various porn sites as we speak."

Seth was shocked.

He then said, "I had no idea that somebody filmed us that night." John proceeded to show the copy of the video of Seth and Stefon having sex circulating on XVideos. While Seth was watching the video, he thought, "Isn't this from my closet in my bedroom?"

After watching the video, Seth breathed heavily to himself.

All of a sudden, John cleared his throat and said, "Well, Seth, I just came back from a meeting with the higher-ups of NBC, and we all agreed on one heavy decision." Seth felt himself tearing up, thinking, "Please don't tell me that you're firing me for this shit."

John unclasped his hands and placed them on his table afterwards.

Then, he told Seth, "Seth, I'm sorry to tell you, but NBC has decided that your appearance as the anchor of Weekend Update will be temporarily suspended until further notice. They've also chosen Cecily Strong and Colin as temporary replacement anchors."

Seth nodded slowly to himself.

Suddenly, John continued, saying, "The bad news sadly doesn't stop there, Seth. I'm also sorry to tell you that you've also been given a temporary suspension from acting in sketches starting this week's episode. But don't worry, because you'll still be allowed to write sketches for future episodes of the show."

Seth felt flabbergasted.

John then stood up from his chair, gave Seth a hug, and said, "I'm sorry for being the one to deliver this news to you, Seth. But, I figured that since we've had more time together, you'll be able to take this type of bad news head-on. And also, I'm sorry that you heard that I had an influence of this decision, since our higher-ups asked me for their opinions about the controversy, too."

Seth didn't hug John back, even after he pulled away.

Afterwards, Seth breathed out slowly and replied, "Well, thank you for telling me, John." John smiled and replied, "Don't mention it, Seth. Oh, and please know that I'm not ashamed of you." When Seth turned away, he rolled his eyes before leaving the studio.

While he was driving back to his house, Seth's anger started building up.
