"Lex, are you here?" Karl asked, walking into his home awaiting his lover's presence.

"I'm upstairs!" She yelled back, laying on his bed scrolling through twitter. Today was the day they were going to play Minecraft with his friends together. She was going to be in a call with them, but she'd never met them in full before. While it was only three people, it was three people who he'd been laughing with and having fun with for a few months on end. They'd heard all about this Alex figure who'd made him the happiest ever, and for Karl that was a big notion. Karl was always happy and smiling, but with her it was tenfold.

"Are you ready?" He asked, sitting at his desk and beckoning her to come over. She nodded, sitting on his lap and leaning into him. He joined the call with a smile, looking at the girl he'd been in love with for years.

"Karl?" A voice asked as he joined the call.

"It's me, I'd like to introduce you guys to-"

"Alex!" She heard another voice scream.

"Scare her off why don't you." A british voice called out.

"I didn't scare her off, if anything your accent did."

"What?"

"Guys, knock it off. Karl is trying to introduce us to his girlfriend."

"Guys, this is Alex. Alex, this is Dream, George, and Sapnap." Karl said.

"I'm Dream, but you can call me Clay if you'd like to. It is very nice to meet you, though I feel like I already know you from how much Karl talks about you."

"I'm Nick, or Sapnap. You might occasionally hear Pandas as well, so any of those names you can call me."

"I'm just George, though it is nice to meet you just as much."

"Hi guys, it's nice to meet you too. I'm sure Karl talks a lot of shit on me, so just disregard anything you may or may not have heard."

"How dare you think of me that low. I only tell them cute things, and how much of a monster you can be, but that's also cute."

"You say what now?" She asked, looking back at him. He had a nervous smile on but he giggled and it melted her heart.

"Guys, Karl is in love. I wanna be in love." Sapnap said with a sigh.

"Nobody will ever willingly love you, Sapnap." George said with made Sapnap go off in fury, ranting about how nobody loves him and this and that. Then he killed him in minecraft.

"I was just kidding! Dream, Dream get him off of me!" George screamed, clicking being heard in the call. Karl joined the random server they had just created to see chaos erupting everywhere.

"Your friends are chaotic, Kar." She whispered with a smile.

"Just a tad, but theyre pretty great." He whispered back, pressing a kiss to her cheek.

"So, Alex, whats your favorite thing to do?" Dream asked, jumping around Karl's character in game.

"Probably fuck Karl." Sapnap said, interrupting Alex's answer.

"Sapnap!" George yelled.

"Sapnap what the fuck!" Dream said, wheezing in between his words.

Karl blushed in silence and dug his face into her shoulder as she leaned into the mic and spoke, "Yes Sapnap, you are correct."

"Alex! Oh my god!" Karl exclaimed, pulling her back into him as Dream wheezed more and Sapnap fell into laughter. George was simply too stunned to speak and just let out a few huffs of laughter,

"What?! Im not gonna let the boy think he's wrong." She stated bashfully with a smile.

"Shes just kidding we dont do that."

"Yes we most certainly do." Alex said, making Karl kick her out of the room into a five minute time out.

"She's left the room now." Karl said, face as red as a tomato.

"On a real note, keep her around. You seem more relaxed and yourself when she's around." Sapnap said, all sense of humor out of his tone.

"Trust me, i plan to." He said, looking at the closed door where he knew she sat. He saw her phone slip under the door and he sighed, smiling as he walked over to read the phone,

Im sorry. I love you. Let me back in please 🥺

He opened the door and let the girl back in who smiled at him.

"Im back bitches!" Alex said, waiting for Karl to sit down before she did. Whenever she did, she felt how much sleep she'd been running on recently hit her like a truck. She didnt let it effect her though, trying her best to keep things light hearted and keeping jokes going around.

After a few hours she just couldnt keep her composure and fell into Karl's embrace, signalling to him that she was exhausted.

"Alright, guys, i think im gonna call it a night. Im pretty tired and so is Alex, talk to you tomorrow?"

"Yeah! Sleep well!" Dream said before Karl bid his final goodbyes and logged off.

"Do you think we'll be okay?" Alex asked as they climbed into the bed.

"I do, why are you having doubts again?" Karl asked, pulling her body close and holding the girl in his arms. He felt her nod her head, making his heart clench for her. He had his doubts from time to time, but Alex was just afraid of being hurt like she was before. She was always doubting herself never him though.

"Why don't we just have a mental health day. Only me and you in the house. We'll call of work and turn off our phones. Maybe tell Katherine and Ashton we'll be offline, but thats it. We just spend the day together."

"I like that idea." She spoke softly, her words being muffled by his shirt.

"I love you, so fucking much Alex. You have no idea." He whispered. She gripped his shirt and pulled her head up.

"I love you too, so much more than you could even imagine."
