⚠️TW: MENTION OF SH/SCARS⚠️
Jake's pov
I was making us breakfast when Johnnie hugged me from behind sleepily. "Did you sleep well?" I asked as I put our food on a plate. "Mmhmmm.." he said in a soft voice. "Go sit down okay? Breakfast will be done in a minute," I said as I pulled the chair for him. He sat down as I made him a cup of milo and coffee for myself. I sat our food on the table and we started eating. "Do you think we should tell everyone that we're together?" I asked. "Well, I was going to go live later so we could, but I'm still trying to think of what to do while on live," he explained. I told him that I had ordered a bunch of random stuff that I was going to try for a video and suggested that we did it on his live. He agreed.
-later on live-

"Hello everyone hope you're all doing well and today I have a special guest. Today, I'm here with the one and only... Jake Webber!!" I said as I started explaining everything that happen and that we were together. We then started trying out all the random stuff.
"Andddd up next they gave us.. a dress?!" I laughed. My smile quickly faded as the chat kept asking me to wear it as there was only one. "Um guys.. we'll be right back," Jake said as he noticed and pulled me to a different room. "What's wrong?" he asked me, my eyes full of tears. "It's nothing.. I just.. I can't wear the dress.." I muttered. He lifted up my chin and looked at me with worried eyes, asking me why. I sniffled as I rolled my pants up to my inner thighs, revealing my scars.

My heart dropped as I saw Johnnie's scars. "Oh Johnnie.." I said as I hugged him. "It's okay.. dont cry.. I'll wear it okay? Don't worry about it. And if you ever need to talk to someone to talk to I'm here for you. I'm so proud of you for making this far in life. Don't give up okay? If there's anything I can do to help please tell me, alright? I know it might not seem like it but It'll be okay, I promise you. Things will get better, and I'll always be by your side no matter what. I love you," I said as I wiped his tears and rolled his pants down. I kissed him on the cheek as he hugged me tightly, sobbing. He kept crying as I comforted him until he was ready to go back. Eventually, he stopped crying. He told me it was okay to just go back and continue the live but I insisted that we ended it early. I quickly went to say that we had to end the live early for reasons I am not allowed to say and ended it before rushing back to Johnnie. "I'm fine really, you didn't have to do that," "You're not, and we both know that. And even if I "didn't have to" I wanted to. I really do care about you and would rather end the live than force you to put on some dress you're uncomfortable with wearing due to your scars. And.. I know life probably sucks right now and it seems like cutting yourself is the only way to cope. I know you don't like to talk about your feelings because you don't want to bother others but I'll always be here for you okay? You mean the world to me and I'm willing to drop everything just to make sure you're okay no matter what I'm doing cause you're the most important thing in my life. Come to me whenever okay? I love you." I said as I held his hand to my chest. He looked up at me and smiled as he put my hand on his chest. We smiled at each other as we walked down to the living room. I told him to wait on the couch while I went to go get his favourite snacks. I came back and sat down beside him. I turned on his favourite movie and put the snacks down. "What is this?" Johnnie chuckled. "Just a little something for my little lady," I said in a funny voice that makes him giggle. We watched Johnnie's favourite movies for the rest of the day.

At night while still watching movies with Jake, I got a call from Tara. I asked Jake to pause the movie as I answered the call.
-the call-
Johnnie: hello?
Tara: YOU AND JAKE ARE DATING??
Johnnie: well uhh.. yeah
Tara: WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME EARLIER??
Johnnie: I just haven't been on my phone since my concert yesterday, and plus I've been with Jake all day
Tara: can I talk to Jake really quickly?
Johnnie: sure I guess?
(he hands his phone to Jake)
Jake: hello
Tara: If you even hurt Johnnie in any way even the SLIGHTEST, I will hunt your ass down. If I get even a single text by Johnnie saying anything bad that you did, I don't want you anywhere near him ever again. Johnnie is a good guy and if you aren't going to treat him like how he deserves, don't bother.
Jake: yes ma'am and don't worry he's safe he's just watching movies with me right now at my house
Tara: Good
-Tara ends the call-
"Well that was random," I chuckle. Johnnie sniggers as we continued watching the movie. In the end, we both ended up fall asleep on the sofa.
