My Story of Love (Ereri/Riren)

Chapter 3

I opened up the game and pressed 'record' "Gooodd morning, Youtube!" I said enthusiasticly "Today, I'm doing something a bit special for you guys. Say hi!"

"Hey, its WingsofFreedom here." Levi said with little to no emotion.

"I can already here the fangirls and fanboys screaming." I said, laughing lightly. "Okay today we are going to play a fanmade slenderman game. Ready, Levi?"

"Let's get those pages."

We joined a game and began. I never would've thought that this game could be the start of a successful relationship. We played for about a half hour, plenty of screams and laughs came from me but only sass came out of Levi. We only got 5 pages before finally giving up.
"Thank you for watching, please go check out WingsofFreedom's channel, you won't be sorry. Tell us what you think about the video and if we should do more co-op or not. Bye!"

"Bye, brats." Levi added, and then I stopped the recording.

"So your French, right? Where do you live? If you don't mind me asking of course."

"Yeah, but I'm in Bordeaux. What about you?"

"I'm in Brunswick, Germany. You are a 13 hour drive away." 1295 miles apart

"Shit." We talked for hours after that. We talked about our favorite things and even some deep stuff. I found out that he is also a virgin and he's lived alone since he was 17.

"Hey Levi?"

I'm going to do it

"Yeah?"

I'm going to do it

"IjustthoughtIshouldtellyouthatImgay." I spit out really quickly. It all sounded like one word.

"Oi! Stop talking so fast. I can't understand you." Great

I take a deep breath and speak slower, "I just thought I should tell you that I am a homosexual." Yep, I did it. I ruined everything. Someone shoot me.

"That's convenient. I am too." Levi had more emotion in his voice than I've ever heard him. That's not saying much but it's still something.

"... Really?" I feel like my heart is going to fly out of my chest and go straight through the computer in front of me.

"Yeah. Look, I got to go. Let's keep in touch, okay?" He wants to keep in touch. He. Wants. To. Keep. In. Touch. He's gay. I'm gay. He wants to keep in touch.

I smile and reply with probably too much enthusiasm, "Yes, yeah, sure, okay! Have a good day, Levi!" And the call ended.

-4 months later-

For the past 4 months Levi and I have done a co-op once a week. We've become so much closer. I still have not seen his face, but I don't mind really. His personality is what I admire so much. I've definitely fallen for him. Am I in love? I wouldn't say that just yet. All I know is I want to be with him.

I pull out my phone and texted him:

Me: Hey, can you voice chat on Skype or call me soon?

I'm going to ask him out. I'm going to do it. We've never talked about relationships and what not. We only focused on deepening our friendship and now we are best friends. I recently found out Levi is a clean freak and he loves making jokes about shit.

Ding

Levi: Yeah, I'll call you on skype.

Right when I finished reading the text my computer started singing the skype call ringtone. I rushed over to the computer and answered his voice chat.

"Hey!" I said trying to hide my nervousness. I'm seriously going to do it.

"What's up?" Oh nothing just trying to figure out a way to make you mine without possibly ruining our friendship.

"Nothing much. I have a question. Do you like anybody?"

About 45 seconds later he replied.

"I do, why?"

"Well, uh, I was, uhm, wondering if you, uh-"

"Spit it out." Levi said with a hint of hostility in his voice. Scary.. but sexy.

"I, uhm, like you.." I did it. I ruined my life. Kill me.

"Would you be my boyfriend?" Uhhh what. Did I just hear him right? Oh Jesus take the wheel.
