Before You Go (Skephalo)

Chapter 7

Bad woke up to the warm sun shining on his face. He noticed Skeppys arms still wrapped around him. He smiled to himself. He knew then that everything was real, no doubt, he was in love with Skeppy. He knew he had a crush on him when he wrote the song Muffin, but this was definitely more. This was a deep, emotional, connected love.

Oh God he was in love with Skeppy! Oh no! What if Skeppy finds out and things turn weird? What if Skeppy doesn't like him back? What if he leaves him??

His racing thoughts were interrupted by Skeppy rolling over, still cuddled into Bad. Looking down at Skeppy calmed his mind.

He remembered one of Skeppys little mottos, 'If It's worth it, do it.' And he realized that confessing to Skeppy was worth it. Being able to have this everyday was all Bad wanted. He had to tell him by the end of this trip. Skeppy would understand if he didn't feel the same, right? Bad had to go for it.

Skeppy shifted again and slowly opened his eyes.

"Goodmorning.. Muffin.." Bad said nervously.

"Goodmorning Bad!" Skeppy mumbled. They laid there for a few minutes until Skeppy sat up.

"What do you want to do today?" Skeppy asked.

"Anything you wanna do." Bad smiled.

Skeppy smirked, "Then me and you are going to stream."

"Okayy.." Bad replied suspiciously.

"With face cam."

"Skeppy no!" Bad protested

Skeppy giggled, knowing he could convince Bad to do anything.

"Come oonn?" Skeppy begged. "Please?"

"Mmmgh.. Fine!" Bad complained.

"Yay!" Skeppy hugged him, then ran into the bathroom to shower.

Bad decided to go on twitter while he waited for Skeppy. He scrolled through all the pictures the fans secretly took. Bad made sure not to like them or bring attention to them, but he screenshotted every single one. He cropped them and stared at the pure joy on their faces. He smiled and felt butterflies in his stomach as he admired every detail. He thought for a moment and then realized he could watch the stream they're gonna do over and over. He was upset about the face cam at first, but now he was imagining all the edits and clips that'll come from it. He hoped his feelings wouldn't be too obvious to the stream. Yet obvious enough for ship edits. They were his guilty pleasure.

Skeppy walked out with a towel around his waist. Skeppy kneeled down and started digging through his suitcase. Bads eyes went wide when he saw him. He'd never seen Skeppy shirtless before or anything even close.

Bad blushed, "Sk-Skeppy! Put some clothes on, you muffin."

"Calm down dude, I'm looking for them right now."

"Well hurry up!" Bad demanded, looking away and covering his eyes.

Skeppy grabbed an outfit and brought it back into the bathroom. Bad uncovered his eyes and let out a sigh of relief. He got back on twitter and continued browsing.

Skeppy walked back out wearing a blue shirt and some black shorts. "You gonna keep the duck onesie on for the stream?" he teased.

"Oh my goodness. I was waiting for you to get out of the bathroom!" Bad defended.

Skeppy giggled, "We could've just showered together." He sat on the bed, running a hand through his wet hair.

"I am not going to reply to that." Bad said as he walked in the bathroom, shutting the door behind him.

Skeppy looked down at the phone Bad was so infatuated with. He decided a funny troll would be to take a bunch of selfies on Bad's phone. He'd find them later and it would be hilarious. Skeppy typed in 'Lucy' as the password and swiped up. The phone opened up to Bad's gallery full of pictures of them holding hands. Skeppy immediately turned it off and put it back. He didn't know what to expect but it definitely wasn't that.

As if he needed anymore confirmation that Bad liked him, there it was. Skeppy smiled to himself. The fact Bad had all of that saved made him feel special. He loved the idea of Bad having a crush on him. He thought it was so adorable.

Skeppy opened Twitter on his own phone and started searching for the same pictures. He also screenshotted everything he found. Luckily, Bad didn't know Skeppys password so he was safe. Skeppy even made one of them his wallpaper. It was one where Bad was looking at him with pure passion in his eyes. He was so happy someone captured that moment. But definitely not happy that it was public.

Bad walked out of the bathroom, already dressed in a blue Skeppy hoodie and some dark jeans. Skeppy smiled at the merch and admired how cute Bad was.

"You ready?" Skeppy asked.

"As ready as I'll ever be."

Skeppy nodded at Bads response and hopped up. He pulled out his laptop and started booting it up.

Bad sat down next to him and watched the screen intensely. Skeppy was setting up everything and adjusting the face cam.

The mouse curser was over the 'start stream' button. Skeppy looked at Bad and waited for the 'go ahead'. Bad smiled at him and Skeppy clicked the button.
