For a moment it felt like the time stood still, you froze while chills crawled down your spine.
It felt like a vacuum around you was sucking the air out of your lungs, when suddenly time started to rush and you sprinted towards your computer.
You're headset almost fell down as you tried to put it on.
Your hand was shaking when you clicked to accept the call.
"H...hhello?"
A warm and quirky "Hi there!" blasted out of your speakers.
"OH FUCK, I'M SO SORRY MY SETTINGS... WAIT.... HANG ON!"
You realized, that you just yelled at your idol and that this, would be the first impression he has of you. You nervously tried to fix everything while quietly mumbling curses.
"Dude, it's alright. Relax." you heard the familiar laughter through your headset.
"Ok, I'm sorry, I fixed it now. Hey... Hello. Uhm yeah!" you stuttered.
Again a laugh, from the other end.
"Yeah, hi. Are you sure you are ok now?" Jack asked.
"yeah, I'm ok. Thanks. It's been a crazy day"
"Oh, I know these days" he giggled.
"Well, the reason I contacted you... I saw your content and I really like what you're doing.
It's different. Not in a bad way." he laughed.
"You?... You watched my shit?" you asked confused.
"yeah, a friend of mine told me about your channel."
He continued telling you about his favorite videos and the funniest parts, while you sat there in disbelief, hands still shaking. You ended up talking for quite some time until he said : "anyways... enough rambling, I wanted to ask you if you might be interested in a collaboration."
"me?...with... You?"
"Am I really that horrible?" he asked laughing.
"NO!... No... not at all. I'm just uhm I'm really happy right now."
"So I take this as a yes?" he asked while giggling.
"Cool, so... I'll message you when I checked my schedule, so we can find a day where we both have time." he said with the familiar jumping tone in his voice.
"Yeah, sure, ok, cool" you stuttered.
You couldn't believe that this just happened. After the call ended, you just sat there for a while, unable to move, unable to think, when it suddenly crashed down on you.
You jumped up from your chair, uncontrollably laughing with your hands covering your face shaking your head as you fell down onto your bed.
You spread your arms, staring at your ceiling, with the biggest smile on your face.
You haven't been this happy in years.
These emotions felt so unfamiliar and overwhelming.
You had no one to talk to about what just happened but you wanted to scream it out, for the world to hear.
"Calm down! Relax! Breathe!" you told yourself.
You headed to the bathroom and washed your face with cold water.
"I need to calm down!" you told yourself as you sat down to go through your schedules. It wouldn't really matter. You could make time for the Collaboration but you needed something to do, to distract and calm yourself.
So you sat there reading your notes when a Skype message came in.
"Hey, so I looked through my notes and I could make some time this Saturday. Let me know if that works for you. Around 5 pm my time would be great. Oh and yeah the game... What about Prophunt? I'll see, if some friends would like to join us. ;) "
You stared at the last part of the message.
"Friends?" is he talking about....?"
You wondered while typing your response : "Hey again. Yeah cool. Works for me."
"Awesome, good night and thanks."
"Cool, yeah, good night and thank YOU!"End of Chapter 2
