My hands barely gripped the mouse, palms cold out of being nervous. While everyone else was speaking in soft voices, muffling about Jungkook being bothered too easily, I stared at my computer screen blankly.
I was not ready. The guy that had glasses to big for his face and chicken grease on his lips that made it look glossy was right. I only played one round of the game, and it was with bots.
"You okay?" Yoongi's voice snapped me out of trance. I looked over at him, my eyes meeting his and remembering how his arm was around my seat. He hadn't moved it.
I was flustered, nervous, and panicked. Did he realize what he was doing?
"Yeah," I focused back on my screen. "Guess we have to beat them."
"You sure you can do it?" Yoongi asked, his voice unsure.
I clicked lobby five, "No."
[JUNGKOOK] has entered the game.
[RM] has entered the game.
[JHOPE] has entered the game.
[JIN] has entered the game.
[JIMIN] has entered the game.
[V] has entered the game.
[SUGA] has entered the game.
[SEA] has entered the game.
The screen loaded, and as the other team joined the lobby, I scanned through the character selection and tried my best to memorize the abilities and rates.
Eventually, everyone chose their own champion and the game started to load up the map.
"We're going to have to wear the headsets," Yoongi slid one over my head, "we can't be yelling out what our strategies are."
While adjusting the headset that smelt a bit off, I turned around and glanced at our rivals to see if they were doing they same. When I noticed they were, one guy caught my eye and smirked devilishly, raising his eyebrows and winking.
I shuddered in disgust and pulled my chair closer to the screen.
Me, being the complete idiot, totally forgot Yoongi's hand was over the chair, and since he had some kind of hulk strength, my chair gravitated more towards him instead of the computer.
I never really got to know what his reaction was, because as soon as I did that, my headset buzzed and voices started overlapping each other.
"Hhhhhhnnnnggg."
"Stop doing that shit every time the voice channel opens," Namjoon complained. Although this was nothing new, I was amazed by it.
"Look at the other team," Taehyung's voice interluded between the brewing quarrel, "they all picked the most popular characters."
Clicking on the loading screen, I examined the champions they selected. Either way, I couldn't tell if they were popular or not being that it was my first time playing the game.
I started to recognize the characters and their abilities, glad I actually took the time to read it beforehand.
"It'll be easier to counter them then," Namjoon responded.
Concentrating on what I should do, I sighed, growing weary already. What if I would cause the downfall and make our team lose?
Suddenly, the voice channel went silent.
"Did the channel crash?" I turned to ask Yoongi, but he was already staring at me. I couldn't read his face, but I knew I had made a mistake somewhere along the lines.
"A-ahem," Jungkook coughed, "no. We just forgot you were playing with us, so you surprised us just now."
"Oh," I laughed. "Did you think I was a ghost?"
"No, no," Jimin cut off the rising laughter from the guys. "You sounded like you moa-"
"THE GAMES STARTING!" Jin's loud voice echoed in everyone's headset, gluing everybody to their own computer screen.
The screen loaded up, the counter at 35 seconds, giving us enough time to rush to our spots. I followed Taehyung's champion, knowing that if we were paired our damage would double as well as our defenses. Plus, Taehyung always shielded me and have me extra health while the rest of the guys watched me die from the previous game.
"Here we go," Hoseok breathed, sounding nervous.
"Why do you sound like you're going to piss your pants-" Jungkook whined.
"GAME START!" the computer announced.
—
"GAME END!" flashed across the screen in bold, bright letters. Our characters danced on screen, a sign of victory. I let out a heavy breath I was holding since the game began.
"H-how..." Jungkook flipped his headset off scooted his chair over to me, "did you get first on the leaderboard?"
This seemed to be a question everyone was wondering, because I could feel all of them staring at me. And that made me feel pressured and nervous. I barely even knew myself!
"Well... I chose a specific part of the map to stay at because it's easy to run and heal from there, and also makes it easier to combo with Taehyung... Also knowing what time your stats reset and paying attention to the enemy's ability cool down-"
A hand gripping at my shoulder cut off my rambling. I turned around, and shuddered in disgust when I saw the guy from earlier looking at me.
"Just came to say congratulations," his voice sneered, "I guess we underestimated you."
"If that's all you have to say," Yoongi practically growled, "then leave." He knocked the guys arm off of my shoulder, and I nearly sighed out of relief if it wasn't for the atmosphere growing more tense and challenging by the second.
"Woah, this your chick or something?" the guy held his hands up in some sort of mocking pose. I checked my shoulder for cheeto dust.
Yoongi stood up, and I could see how angry he was, and how angry he would get. It looked like he was about to fight him. Which I did not want, especially since we were planning on having a relaxed day.
"Yoongi, it's okay," I smiled up at him, standing up as well. It looked pathetic, him towering over me, me trying to calm him down by placing my hand on his chest.
But it worked.
"Let's just go," Jungkook stood up besides me, the rest following. We grabbed our key cards and shut off the computers.
As we were leaving, I felt somebody grab my hand, fingers intertwined with mine. My heart nearly skipped a beat when I glanced up and saw Yoongi. He was avoiding eye-contact, so I wasn't really sure whether or not he was doing it for show or... I don't know.
