Concert Vibes || Natewantstobattle / Nathan Sharp

Chapter 14

I lied in my bedroom, scrolling through my subscriptions on YouTube via the laptop. I'm not subscribed to too many people. Just Mark, The Grumps, Mat Pat, Sean, Felix, and (Y/N). I saw a Grumpcade video that had a little animated character that looked exactly like (Y/N). Sure enough, in the title I see letters form and make up her Channel name. I felt a sudden giddiness in me as I clicked the video to watch it. It wasn't the first episode, but that's okay.

"Welcome back to Grumpcade lovelies! And we have the lovely (Y/N), also known as (Y/YT/N). How are you doing, (Y/N)?" I hear Danny introduce as the loading screen for Mario Cart pops up onto the screen. Then I hear her speak. She sounds so gorgeous. I miss her voice so badly. It's been a couple of days since I have last talked to her. I continue to listen to the podcast-like video. They eventually start talking about me. Nothing bad, just how (Y/N) and I live near each other. I think about how she was on the floor just below me, painting, singing, dancing, or relaxing and being gorgeous. Should I text her? Oh, she's probably busy. I shouldn't bother her... well, I guess that texting her wouldn't be so bad... I guess that—

"No, no no no! FUCK! DAMN IT! WHO BLUE SHELLED ME? WHO FUCKING BLUE SHELLED ME? WAS IT YOU, SEXBANG?"

I hear that blare through my speaker on my laptop. Holy shit she can yell.

"I SWEAR IF I FIND OUT IT WAS YOU, I WILL FIGHT! THERE WILL BE BLOOD!"

I couldn't help but start laughing. Her becoming so incredibly enraged made you laugh, knowing she's a four foot eleven women. She did move up to second place rather quickly after that. They made other jokes, and Danny signs off. The in between grumps is my favourite part though. I hear them talking.

Last episode to record, (Y/N), how do you feel?" he asks her. I hear her groan and Danny stifle a giggle.

"I feel like I could use a coffee. I need something to bring some life into me," I hear her say. She sounded exhausted

"What if Nate brought you a coffee? Two things you want to get your mouth on—"

Oh no.

"DANNY!"

I can feel my face warming up. Goddamn, why did Danny have to do that? I continue to listen to them talk on in between. He busts out laughing and claps his hands slowly, trying to stop himself.

"I'm sorry! I had to I had to!" he says between gasps for air. What a jerk, that's so incredibly embarrassing! Of course I liked her, but for Danny to say all of that is just... wait a minute. What did (Y/N) say? I rewind the video back a bit and hit play.

Did she just say, "Yeah, you're totally right though."?

Now I've got to text her.

I push my laptop off of my chest and grab my phone. I see I've got a couple texts from some people already. Two from the gracious woman herself, and one from... Mark? I haven't talked to him since the concert. I wonder what he wants...

(Y/N): Hey Tree Trunk, want to get together soon and collab? We could do a cover together and you can do an art challenge with me? Let me know!
(Y/N): Also, sorry about the Grumpcade episode.

I immediately texted her back.

Nate: Absolutely! By the way, it's too late; I've already seen it. Danny is embarrassing. I'll get you coffee sometime, though. ☺

Sending the text off I check to see what Mark had to say. When I opened the text, I was worried for what I was about to be reading. Something was wrong. I could feel it.

Mark: Nate, I have to talk to you. I'm very busy and I have no time to call. But this is a warning. (Y/N) is mine. Back off. I have wanted to be with her for almost a year and I will not let you ruin that.

What the hell was he talking about?

Nate: Mark, I can't help that me and (Y/N) have something going on. You're just going to have to deal with it.

Who does he think he is? She is my girl and I'll be damned if I let this guy take her from me. I get two texts back; one from (Y/N), one from Mark. I reply to the one Mark sent me first.

Mark: Stop talking to her. She is mine and I'm not going to stand around and let you take her from me.

Nate: She isn't anyone's, especially not yours. She's a woman that will make her own choices, and if she chose you I would be disappointed, because you don't seem to like her for her.

I send the text message off in a fury. I check to see what (Y/N) said. Hopefully she absentmindedly calms me. She's always been so great at doing that. Just thinking of her makes me feel so right.

(Y/N): Want to go get coffee after my shift? I've got a craving for an iced coffee.

Sure enough, her asking to get coffee with me has been the most calming thing I've read.

Nate: of course, text me when you're home!

My phone vibrates and rings in my hand as another text from Mark comes in.

Mark: I don't just like her; I love her. I fell for her so long ago. Way before you even knew she existed. Stop talking to her.

I shake my head in anger. He will not take the girl I want. She's mine.

Nate: No. I won't. You can't stop me.

Something had just came to min. Was Mark the reason that (Y/N) didn't want to make us official? It would explain a lot. Of course they're close friends, but what if she's caught on to his little crush? It would make a lot of sense. Getting coffee with (Y/N) after she gets off of work would be a perfect time to ask her about all of this. There's no way I can just sit by idly and let her feel this way.

I get another text from him, but I ignore it. He will not be the reason that I lose a girl I found a true connection with. A girl that reciprocates the same feelings I have towards her. At least, I hope she does. I fell for (Y/N) hard. I didn't realize it until now. She has really gotten into my head like no other girl has. I can't quite explain it.

I feel my phone vibrate. Its (Y/N)

(Y/N): Alright! Sounds like a date then!
