Chapter 5- A gift?

Y/n's POV

It's been a couple weeks since Max and I started talking, and I've already fallen head over heels so fucking quick. A good 70% of my headspace is taken up by him. I've also continued to watch his videos as they come out. He doesn't know that I know about his career yet, and it's honestly kind of fun to see his more casual side, and then what I assume to be a nervous side? I don't know, seeing him constantly laughing and having fun with people just makes me smile, it lets me know that he's feeling happy and good. Sure, it's sappy as hell, but watching him lean back in his chair while laughing on stream is something else. Speaking of stream, he had just ended his for something he said was really important. Although I was really curious, I didn't want to message him asking what he was doing, that could come off as suspicious. However, I didn't expect to be called minutes after he ended said stream, by Pezzy himself.

Pezzy's POV

I ended stream feeling slightly tired, and just barely ready to fall over. I walk over to my bed and lay down momentarily to call y/n, since I wanted to ask them to hang out today, and if all goes well, finally ask him out to dinner. Although it had only been a couple weeks, I feel super comfortable and happy with him. I look through my contacts and find "y/n 🥰", and call them. The phone rings twice before they pick up.
"Hello?" he says, and I can't help but smile at the sound of his voice.
"Hey y/n, I was wondering if you were busy at all today?" I ask, hoping for a no.
"Nah, I'm free all day, why?" he asks.
"I was wondering if you wanted to hang out at the mall, walk around, and maybe do a bit of shopping?" I ask. I suggest the mall thinking I could get him something, maybe a ring or two since I know he wears them often.
"Yeah sure, let me get showered and dressed, we could meet up at, let's say, 1:30?" he responds, and I have to keep myself from jumping up in happiness.
"Great, I'll see you then." I say, the smile clearly being heard through my words.
"See you then" he replies, and then hangs up. As I throw on some more outside clothes, all I can think about is y/n, and how much fun we'll have.

Y/n's POV

After getting off of the phone with Max, I can't help but smile at the fact that I was the important reason for him ending stream. I grab my checkered button up, a black sweater with some random design on it, and some black jeans before walking to the bathroom to shower. After about 20 minutes I'm all done and ready to go, so I get in my car and head over to the mall we both live by, which was about 7 minutes away. If there wasn't any crazy traffic I could probably get there early. As I drive I slowly bob my head to the music playing from my favorite playlist. I pull up and park in front of the mall and check the time. 1:28pm. I had gotten there just a little early, so I waited for the song playing to end before getting out and walking into the food court, which was where we agreed to meet up. I sit down at a random table and scroll through twitter for a bit before I'm tapped on the shoulder. I look up and Max is there with a small smile. I smile back at him.
"Hey there" I say as I stand up from my seat, slightly towering over him.
"Hi y/n" he replies with a bigger smile, which causes me to have to try and hold back a blush.
"So, where to first?" I ask him, looking away for a moment to hide the slight pink in my face.
"I was thinking we could just walk through and stop at stores we like on the way," he says, looking up at me.
"Sounds good to me," I reply, and we start walking and talking about random stuff that comes to mind.

Pezzy's POV

It had been around two and a half hours since we got to the mall, and we had stopped to go eat lunch before it was too late. As we were eating I excused myself to the bathroom, and walked in the direction of the bathrooms. As soon as I was out of y/n's sight, I speed walked over to the jewelry store and went to go buy the ring that had caught his eye when we passed through. I walk to the stand that I had remembered and looked for the ring. Sure enough, it was still there. The ring was silver, and shaped like a dragon wrapped around your finger, with a red gem for an eye. I get the attention of a staff member and quickly buy the ring, slip it in my pocket, and head back over to y/n. I slow down my pace as I get to the table, and I sit back down. He looks up from his food, and sees that I'm back, and smiles.
"Took you a little bit, you feelin alright?" he teases, and I roll my eyes at him.
"I'm feeling great, never been better," I reply, slightly smirking, and he chuckles.
"Whatever you say, Max," he replies, making eye contact with me and smirking. His smirk makes me feel a little weird in a good way, and I look away to attempt hiding the pink he forced onto my face. I say attempt because no matter how hard I tried, it was very obvious I was blushing. He lets out a low laugh, and my stomach starts flipping. Just as if an angel was watching over me, I get a call, and I excuse myself, thankful for a reason to turn away. I answer and instantly have puffer yelling my ear off, asking where I am and why I'm late to yet another recording. I look at the time and realize we spent way longer than I had thought. It was already 5pm. Fuck.

Y/n's POV

Max comes back to the table with a worried look. I look at him questioningly.
"I'm sorry to cut things short but one of my co-workers needs me ASAP, I forgot about something I had to do. I have to go, but before I do, here, I bought you this," He says, smiling as he quickly walks out to his car. I look at the box that he placed in my hand, which was small and black, with some random brand written in silver on top. I open the box and gasp, because it was the ring that I had seen while we were walking through the mall earlier. I was planning on buying it for myself after my next paycheck, but Max had beaten me to it. I smile at the gesture, and text him a quick "Thank you 🥰" before getting up to go to my car. I walk through the parking lot with the ring in hand. I get in my car and try it on. Somehow, Max had gotten me ring size perfect, as the ring fit so nicely on me. The whole car ride home I had on the cheesiest grin I've had in a while, as I kept looking down at the new addition to my wardrobe. I've decided that I have to get him something as well, to repay him for the lovely ring.
