1st Person POV - BadBoyHalo

Zak had helped me bring my stuff in from my car. When we got all my stuff in, I thanked Zak. "Thanks for that Zak" I said, and Zak smiled in response. I then glanced at his right arm, and I stared in shock when I saw scars on his wrists and up his arm. Zak probably saw I was staring because he hid his right arm, so his scars weren't showing. "Zak... You have scars..." I said then I saw tears forming in his eyes. He then turned and ran up the hall to his bedroom and I heard the door shut. I honestly felt bad, I didn't know he was so sensitive of the scars. I then walked down the hall and went to Zak's bedroom door and heard sobbing. I then sat against the door, feeling really bad.

"Zak... I'm sorry... I didn't mean to make you upset..." I say with sadness in my voice. "You saw something I didn't want you to see..." Zak said, still sobbing, "I didn't mean to, it just caught my eye..." I said, but when Zak didn't reply I continued, "If you don't wanna talk about it that's fine, you don't have to... Just... Open the door... It breaks my heart to hear you cry..." I say with tears forming in my eyes. I then heard the door unlock and I got up. I turned to see Zak standing there, with red eyes and tears still rolling down his face. My heart ached to see Zak like this. So, I walked over to him and pulled him into my arms and hugged him and he hugged me back. I could hear Zak crying into my shoulder and it broke my heart, so I walked over to his bed still with him in my arms and we sat down. Zak was still crying into my shoulder, so I rubbed circles on his back to calm him down.

A few minutes passed before Zak pulled away and rubbed the tears from his eyes. He then looked at me with sadness, and I knew what he was thinking. "Zak you don't have to tell me if you're not ready to, I understand" I said trying to reassure him, "You don't understand!" He snapped at me; I was shocked but then Zak shook his head. "S...Sorry..." He said while looking away from me, I then put my arm around him. "It's fine Zak" I said, "And again you don't have to tell me if you're not ready to" I added, Zak turned to me and smiled, "Thanks Bad and yeah I'll tell you when I'm ready" Zak said, and I nodded.

"Should we tell our viewers that we met up?" Zak asked me, I knew Zak was gonna ask that at some point, "yeah why not" I said, and Zak jumped off his bed and jumped into his gaming chair and turned on his PC. I smiled at the boy's excitement, seeing Zak smile was way better than just hearing his smile through a call on TeamSpeak or Discord. My heart raced and butterflies formed in my stomach. 'I still can't believe I'm actually here... With Skeppy... IRL... I honestly thought this would never happen... But being here with him now... Is the best thing that has ever happened to me...' I said in my mind then I heard the clicking of fingers and I snapped back to reality with Zak looking at me confused and concerned. "Are you good Bad?" He asked and I nodded, "Sorry got lost in my thoughts" I said with a smile and Zak nodded. I then saw him load up Twitch and he was about to go live when he turned his gaming chair around and picked up his phone from his bedside table and started typing something. When he finished, I heard my phone ding, and I pulled it out of my pocket to see what it was, and it was a notification from Twitter.

I then looked at Zak and he had a grin on his face, and I just looked away in embarrassment. "You follow me on Twitter, don't you? That's what that notification was wasn't it?" Zak asked, I didn't make eye contact when I replied, "No... It wasn't..." I said, and Zak just burst out laughing, I then turned to him in confusion. "Don't worry Bad I follow you on Twitter too, it's nothing to be embarrassed about" Zak said, and I nodded as he turned his chair back around. "You'd better get out the camera frame, I wanna surprise our viewers" Zak said, and I nodded as I got up and walked out of the camera frame. And when everything was set, he went live.
