You balanced a stack of textbooks in your arms, the weight threatening to topple precariously. You navigated the dorm hallway, dodging a group of rambunctious freshmen before reaching your room.
Inside, Tyler, your boyfriend better known online as hansumfella, was bathed in the soft glow of his computer monitor. His brow furrowed in concentration, fingers flying across the keyboard.
"Hey, handsome," you greeted, a playful smile tugging at your lips.
Tyler glanced up, a grin splitting his face. "Hey you," he said, his voice adopting a slightly deeper tone he reserved for his streams. "Chat will be wondering who that was."
You rolled your eyes, depositing your books on the desk with a soft thud. "Don't worry, your fans won't be jealous. Unless they're secretly crushing on you,"
Tyler chuckled, swiveling his chair to face you fully. "Maybe they are."
You leaned in, stealing a kiss before pulling back. "Thanks. I gotta hit the books for my biochem exam tomorrow. Wish me luck."
"You won't need it," Tyler said confidently. "You're brilliant, y/n. You'll ace it."
You squeezed his hand appreciatively. Tyler always had a way of boosting your confidence. You settled in at your desk, pulling out your notes and textbook.
For the next hour, the room was filled with the soft murmur of you flipping pages and the rhythmic clacking of Tyler's keyboard. Every so often, you'd steal glances at each other, a silent conversation passing between them.
Finally, you stretched, your shoulders protesting. "Alright, I think I'm good for tonight. Time to unwind."
"Perfect timing," Tyler said, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "I was just about to start my stream. Wanna play some co-op?"
You grinned. "Absolutely. We can whoop some serious butt together."
Tyler booted up your favorite game, the familiar opening music filling the room. As you waited for the match to load, Tyler leaned in, his voice dropping to a whisper. "You know, y/n, even if streaming is my passion, being here with you is what truly makes me happy."
You squeezed his hand back. "Me too, Tyler. Me too."
