52 || ping pong

I sigh, holding my legs up to my chest and I feel tears threaten to spill out of my eyes.

why do I feel like this?

I was in my room of the large AirBNB Dream got, and the rest were in the basement, streaming.

I said I wasn't in the mood -which is true- and that I had a cramp. Woo-hoo for lying!

knock knock knock

I get up quickly, guessing that the people downstairs didn't hear it.

I open the door, "hello?"

a man smiles, "hello! I'm Mr Simons, Tommy's dad. I belive we've met." I smile, "hi! Tommy's just downstairs streaming with the rest. Want me to go get him?"

"sure."

I turn around, leaving the door open for Mr Simons to come in. "Tommy!" I call out, going down the stairs the the basement.

Tommy looks at me with a smile, "finally streaming with us?"

"nope! Your dad is here," I respond casually. Tommy nods, "guys, I'll be right back!" He runs up the stairs.

I stand just out of frame, watching Morria and Sapnap face off in ping-pong, while Sam keeps score.

Sam smiles at me, "hey, Lil. You okay?"

I nod, blinking back random tears that sprang into my eyes... though failing and blink a tear out of my eye.

"Lilly?" Sam questions again. I shake my head, "nothing, Sam. Don't worry about it."

Sam nods slowly and Morria gains a point, winning the game, "YEAH, SUCK IT, SAPMAP!"

Sapnap rolls his eyes, "okay GaLaCtIc."

Morria flips him off before turning her attention back to me, "girl, it's okay to be emotional while on your period!"

"I know, I've had my period before," I reply, smiling. Morria elbows me, "want to play me in ping-pong?"

"oh, of course. I'm the master," I agree, picking up Sapnap's discarded paddle.

"oo!" Dream laughs. Sam erases the previous points and makes Sapnap's name 'Lillypad'.

I serve, and instantly get a point. Morria glares at me, "you're better than I thought."

"don't underestimate me," I respond, smacking the ping-pong ball back over to Morria.

"dick," Morria groans, as I get another point. I smirk, "I'm not a mirror, Sherlock."

Sapnap laughs, "Gal, respond! Gal, respond!"

"well, yeah. You're not. Because mirrors show my beautiful face," Morria spits back. I raise my eye brows, "if only you had one."

the roast war goes back and forth, before I finish it with, "know what? Your roasts are so over-used I'm getting tired," and walk off out of camera. Dream gives me a high-five and Tommy walks back down.

"why is Dream high-fiving Lilly?" Tommy asks. Sapnap's head perks up, "because she just distroyed Gala in a roast war."

"hey!" Morria defends, but then stops, "though-" I burst out laughing, "you owned up to it! No take backs!"

"whatever," she rolls her eyes playfully and hooks and arm around my shoulders.

"love you Gal," I mumble.

"love you too, Lil," Morria responds, smiling.

"Tommy," I speak up after Sam ends the stream. Tommy looks at me, "what's up?"

"I never asked, but why was your dad here?" I ask, sitting next to him on the couch and putting my legs over his.

"he was just asking about my low blood sugar. He checks in a lot, in person," he answers with a small sigh.

"that's good," I smile at him, "it's always nice having a parent that checks up on you."

Tommy gives me a confused muxed with worry look.

"w- that's not what I meant! I- I have- y- you know what I meant," I stumble over my words, trying to form a reasonable answer.

Tommy laughs, "mhm, just messing with you."

"that's my thing, ugh," I respond dramaticly.
