I was sitting at my desk with trash bags everywhere. I was so close to finishing the dress, I just had one more trash bag to use and I was done.

As I sewed on the last bag, I stood back and admired my creation. I was so proud of it. I had worked so hard on this.

I grabbed my phone and quickly called Alex

I grabbed my phone and quickly called Alex. He answered with a black screen. "Hey, why can't I see your gorgeous face? I asked jokingly. "Shut up." he said laughing "My lights are off. Why'd you call?"

"I wanted to show you something." I said smiling "You know that dress I had been working on for college?" "Yea." he said. "Well..." I turned my camera around showing the ball gown constructed of just simply trash bags.

"WOAH!" he said in pure shock "Y/n that's awesome, oh my God." "Thank you." I said smiling "I worked my ass of making that."

"I can tell." he said "Hold on, I have to show the guys this." He added Spreen, Carrera, and Rubius to the call. "Omg, is it that big of a deal?" I asked laughing. "Of course it is." Alex said.

I heard the sound of someone joining, followed by an "AYYYEEE!" Carrera had joined. Then Rubius. Then Spreen. Everyone greeted each other, then Alex spoke, "Guys I added y'all to the call to show you something." Everyone was looking at the camera in patience when I flipped my camera.

Everyone had surprised faces, even Alex, even though he had already seen it. "YOU MADE THAT OUT OF TRASH BAGS?!" Spreen yelled. "Holy shit, that's so cool!!" Rubius exclaimed.

"Yes, and thank you." I said with a big smile. "Dawg get better wifi, I can't see shit." Carrera said.

After a while of everyone talking and catching up, our conversation started to die down. "Hey I'm gonna go stream, I'll catch y'all later." Carrera said "Rubius you wanna join?" "Sure." Rubius responded. They both said bye and left. "I should probably go too, I have a lot of work to do." Alex said.

And just like that, it was just Spreen and I. For a few minutes, we were awkwardly quiet, but Spreen broke the silence by saying, "Hey y/n. There was actually something I wanted to talk to you about." Oh God. I already knew what it was going to be about. The kiss.

"About what happened at the carnival, I uh, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that, even though I really wanted to." "Don't be sorry, I was the one who kissed you." I said. "I know but I kinda feel like it's my fault. I came off too strong when we met." Spreen said.

"I didn't think you came off too strong. But even if you did, I wasn't complaining." I said with a smirk. That made Spreen let out a nervous chuckle. "So uh. W- what does this mean? Like, for us." He asked. "I don't know. I like you, but we just met a couple of weeks ago." I said. "I know, and I really really like you too. Like a lot." he said smiling. I felt a blush creeping up on my face, but I quickly moved my hand to face so he wouldn't see.
