"The plane's about to land," I heard a voice say, accompanied by light taps on my shoulder. I opened my eyes and was met by Alex's excited features. "We're about to arrive," he said.

I blinked a few times, opting not to say a word lest possible halitosis. It was an almost 12-hour flight after all. I yawned and turned to Alex and found him fixing our bags and zipping them up. I've never been to the UK before but since it was almost Alex and Wilbur's yearly wine stream, he decided I should tag along, make use of the minimal vacation time I had. I have 15 paid vacation days and 10 sick days per year. Well, 5 of those days I've used to visit my family in the summer, 4 days in the UK wouldn't hurt. I've nothing to use them on besides Alex and family anyway.

"Big Q!" Wilbur called out from outside the arrival area. He had his arms wide open and gave Alex a hug. He was easy to spot as he towered over most of the people, being 6 foot 6 and all. He had the same curly hair, just trimmed a little neater on the sides now. Behind him was his wife, long, blonde hair, bright smile, always dressed like she was ready for an adventure. That's why she's such a good match for Wilbur.

A year after the SMP lore ended, he stopped streaming. It didn't come as a surprise, he did mention it quite a few times even while the SMP was still up. He focused on his music, dropping single after single and went on tour with Lovejoy. Their names became big in the music industry but people will never forget Wilbur Soot the Twitch streamer, Minecraft YouTuber. He'd pop in the guys' streams from time to time and continued to do annual wine streams with Alex on Quackitoo.

Then he met Iris again, an ex girlfriend he really liked. He said he met her in his high school history class, they planned to travel the world together and did go to many places close to the UK but broke up because their universities were too far apart. Now they were back together, married, and have 2 children. Wilbur was busy these past few years, I can truly say.

The first time I met them was when Lovejoy had a concert in LA, of course we got VIP tickets and backstage passes. Even the children were there, Tallulah and Isaac.

"Wilbur," Alex reciprocated the hug and gave him 2 pats on the back, "how are you, man?"

"I'm good, Big Q, just bought our little happy juice for tomorrow," then he casually walked up to me and engulfed me in a hug as well. "If it isn't my favorite doctor. Welcome to the UK, Dawn," then he grabs the handle of my bag to assist me. "Come on, car's parked outside. Tommy and the others will meet us at the studio. Let's get you settled at your hotel first, Crowne Hotel, right?"

It wasn't a long trip and the jetlag seemed to fade away as we traveled to Crowne. The sights were gorgeous, the buildings had some of the most beautiful architecture. It felt straight out of the Harry Potter novel series I obsessed over during my childhood.

I looked at Alex, we were in the backseat with the two kids, he was talking to them animatedly about this Mexican fairytale of this tortilla running away from a woman about to cook him. They were attentively listening, each sitting on one of his legs, intrigued by runaway food.

"It's been 10 years since we started our wine streams, Big Q, has your thoughts on wine changed during that amount of time?" Wilbur was looking at us from the rearview mirror.

Alex's head pulled back, his features seem disturbed, disgusted even. "You know what, Wilbur, I probably never fu— will," he stopped himself when he remembered the children on his lap.
