Screw Ups (Jake x Johnnie)

Tease

jake and johnnie decide to announce their relationship through subtle jokes online, rather than a serious sit down video.

JAKE POV:

After a few days of officially being boyfriends, Johnnie and I decided to try to start to reveal the news to our fans. We weren't worried about them not supporting us, i mean they ship us all the time anyways. My main concern was finding the right way to do it.

I figured it would be easier to at least come out as queer first, so Johnnie and I thought of the great idea to just tweet something short and funny to out us both.

"Johnnie is this good?" i turn my phone to him, showing the tweet i had come up with.

*Anyone else kinda gay?*

"Thats the dumbest shit ever dude" Johnnie said as he read it.

"No it'll be good! cus then you can reply with like 'me lol' and everyone will freak out and it will be so funny" i try to explain.

"Fine" Johnnie rolls his eyes jokingly, pressing post for me.

i guess thats it.

JOHNNIE POV:

I smile at Jake, glad we can finally come out together. I take out my phone to reply to his tweet. I keep it simple, just replying with "me 👀"

I shut off my phone before placing a hand on Jakes cheek, giving him a brief kiss.

"Im proud of you." I tell him. Usually, im the one who's receiving validation and support, but i always try to make Jake feel as loved as me.

"You too"

"What do you think people are gonna say?"

"No idea" Jake sighs, laying his back against the couch.

"Its gonna be alright babe" I lay down next to him. "I promise"

****************1 hour later*****************

JAKE POV:

Ive been trying to ignore the insane amount of notifications ive been getting, but I just couldnt take it and caved. As i expected, over a hundred comments on my recent post.

user replied: wait a damn minute
>HELP JOHNNIES COMMENT?

>OMG?

>JAKE!!!!??

okay, nothing too bad yet, oh and a text from Johnnie.

"Check my comment on ur tiktok lol" god

I open tiktok and go to the video i posted a few days ago, its really just me lip syncing to my song 'animal' in the bathroom. (iykyk)

Johnnieguilbert; my husband 😊🙏

He made my comment sound like a joke just enough for people to not be too shocked. I called him my husband a bunch of times in videos before, but he almost never starts the joke.

Jakewebber9 replied: ofc 🤟

I then went to reply to his text, giving a simple "Dude ilysm" before shutting off my phone snd laying down on my bed. I feel like a teenager again, its crazy how such small things he does always get me all flustered. Johnnies filming right now, but as soon as hes done im gonna give him a visit.

JOHNNIE POV:

I smile as i look down at Jakes text. Should i answer while im on stream? idk. I continue talking to the chat, going on watching the video i was reacting to.

After about 10 more minutes, i end the live. The video finished and i had just been talking to the chat, but when it started to slow down i decided to stop it. I said goodbye to my viewers before shutting off the camera. I finally answer Jake.

"ilym come hereee"

After only a few seconds i hear Jakes door open, him taking heavy steps down the hall, then knocking on my door.

"Johnnie!!" he said in a sing-song voice, opening the door.

I pushed my chair out and got up to meet him halfway through my room in a slight kiss. i dont know if i ever wont get butterflies when we kiss.

"Nice comment on my video" Jake nudged me.

"Just doing my best" i laughed, sitting down on my bed.

"Its not gonna be hard for people to catch on if we keep posting that shit" He sat next to me

"Thats the goal"
