there are a lot of time skips because if I didn't add them the story would be near 4k words and I don't want that. 

Stuff that is in italics  is either thoughts or time skips.

Stuff in bold is either messages or something else online.

*Set shortly after Will went viral with I/Me/Myself*

Will had just gained a massive following due to the popularity of I/Me/myself. He was extraordinarily happy with this. Nothing could cause him to come down from this high. People liked a song William worked hard on.

 There was only one issue, people were assuming that the song was Will coming out as trans. He had nothing against transgender people, but he was a cisgender heterosexual man. People were commenting on his posts calling him trans. People were bickering in the comments, some were defending him while others were saying he was trans. 

This caused William stress. People were walking up to him in public, yelling at him, thanking him, or even calling him slurs that didn't apply to him. There was social media post about him talking about how he was a "hero" even though he wasn't even trying to do what has happened. Will didn't want this to be the outcome of a song. 

Every day, people would talk about him online, in public, or even email him/his management team about what William's identity meant. He knew who he was through finding himself but now people were causing him to question all this. Will was questioning whether or not to address the issue. He ended up with two options:

A) address the issue and possibly still get called slurs, names, etc.

Or

B) Not address the issue and instead quit due to the stress. 

Neither seemed like a good option. Will could always talk to his therapist, but his issues seemed so tiny compared to what other people complain about. what would he even say? 'Oh, I went viral then got hate,'  People online are getting these comments on regular bases. He was used to the casual hate but this was too much. 

*New day I guess idk*

Will had woken up to his phone buzzing. It was Twitter going crazy.

Will couldn't be bothered to read the tweets about him. he got up out of bed and into the bathroom. Before hopping into the shower, he looked at himself in the mirror. Will looked more tired, drained, almost lifeless. Quickly zoning back into reality, he got into the shower. 

*Time skip to after shower*

Will go dressed in a sweater and some black jeans. He knew he needed to go down to the local store to get groceries. He was dreading this. Will knew as soon as he'd go out, he'd get harassed. But he couldn't put this off any longer. His fridge was empty. Getting called slurs didn't feel like enough for him to starve to death. Will took a deep breath before leaving his home.
