Skylox Short Stories

The Mic Problem (2)

"Is it working?" I ask. "Can you hear me?"

"No." He laughs.

"If you can't hear me, how do you know what my question was?"

"Umm... uhh... WEEZY!" He starts screaming and flailing around. I laugh.

"Uhh... okay then..." Sky starts laughing so much I can't hear myself think. I smile.

"Sorry. Just out of control." He smiles and chuckles. A girl with brown hair looking to be his age steps in the room.

"Hey, Adam." She kisses him on the cheek.

"Hey, Alesa." Alesa looks at me.

"Who's this?"

"Deadlox. He was having trouble setting up his microphone."

"Ah. Nice to meet you, deadlox!" I smile. I mute my mic so they think it broke again.

"Nice to meet you too."

"Deadlox, we can't hear you." I frown.

"Goddammit." Alesa walks out of the room after she kisses Sky one more time. I make my mic seem like it was cracking when I spoke. I have no idea why, but when I saw Alesa kissing Sky, I felt jealous.

"So... wanna maybe record a video?" I ask.

"Deadlox your mic is back on!" He makes noises like a fangirl. I laugh. "Sure, I'll record something with you. I see your fans are upset you haven't uploaded in a while. Got any maps in particular?"

"Yeah. I'll send you the download link." I typed in the link for EJM 5.

After we got everything set up, we hit record.

"Hey guys! What's up? It's me, deadlox, with another Epic Jump Map! But this time, I'm not alone." I look around and don't see Sky. "Sky?" I ask and look around once more. He jumps out from behind the rules board.

"Hai everyone!" He starts laughing psychotically.

~time skip until after the recording~

"Your awesome to parkour with." Sky says. "I wanna meet you in person."

"Are you in California?"

"On a vacation in LA."

"That's where I live!" I exclaim. "Wanna meet at the Menchies on Ventura(there's probably not one but whatever it's a story)?"

"Sure. See you there!" He ends Skype before I can say anything else. I slip on my hoodie and walk to the Menchies. I sit down and wait until I see someone with curly brown hair and a semi-beard walk in. He walks up to the Menchies girl and I realize that the man is Sky.

"Sky?" he turns around and smiles.

"Deadlox." He walks over to me and presses his lips against mine. When he pulls away, I finally find myself able to speak.

"S-Sky..."

"It's something I've wanted to do ever since I saw you." He smiles and I pull him in for a second kiss.
