Tommy laid on his bed, head rested on his boyfriend's stomach.

They had been together for over 3 months, those months being an absolute dream for them both.

Suddenly, Tommy shot up, accidentally hitting Riley's chin in the process.

"Oi, you dic-"

"I JUST REMEMBERED I HAVE A FANBASE I NEED TO TELL TO ABOUT US." Tommy came to realization.

He hadn't quite thought about it, as he saw his streaming completely separated from his love life.

"You jackass, my mouth is bleeding-" Riley wiped the speck of blood of his lip before Tommy continued.

"Honey, you don't understand my fans still see me as the straightest man ever." Tommy nervously chuckled.

Riley finally saw the problem, now remembering all those times fans came up to them during their dates. They were bound to get suspicious, right?

"Well, do you think you're ready to? I mean, it's a big step. You have a huge community and your sexuality is a pretty huge part of your personal life..." Riley thought, putting down his phone besides them.

"Well, I'd like to, I'm just scared they're going to make us the next DNF or some shit..." Tommy sighed, going back to Riley's lap.

Riley's hand went straight to his hair, ruffling it. "You could talk about it before starting stream, like you normally do? This is only if you want to, dear, I'm not going to pressure you into doing something you don't want to do." Riley smiled.

All Tommy could do is nod and imagine a pros and cons chart.


PROS of coming out:
• posting cute boyfriend shit on twitter
• brag about finding a bitch before Will
• freely be able to go on dates without worry (I COULD HOLD HIS HAND IN PUBLIC)
• no more pressure

CONS of coming out:
• hate crime
• no more career

Tommy finally made up his mind, Riley noticing his boyfriend's sudden change in expression in a millisecond.

And then watching it change to thinking again.

"How will we do it, though..." The blond thought.

"We could post a picture...? Or you could do one of those 'I played Minecraft with' streams and I could be there... I'm not sure." Riley thought, watching Tommy's eyes light up at the second suggestion.

"You'd be willing to stream with me?" Tommy's smile grew wider than Riley had ever seen it. All he could do was nod with a soft smile back.

Tommy quickly opened his phone to discord.

Tommy shut off his phone, Riley been reading his messages and showing a huge smile. They both rapidly began to stand up, failing miserably as their legs tangled, making Riley fall on his own face.

"Now my nose??? Dear, you're becoming a danger to my health-" Riley laughed as he held his bloody nose, walking out the door to the bathroom.

Tommy laughed loudly, sitting on his chair and getting a stream ready. Today, he was planning to just hang on the SMP while Riley did his thing on his bed, but plans have changed.
