Blood, sweat, and fears - mystreet fanfiction

Chapter 2

I want food and I also want to get straight to the story so her you go

  Everything was normal. At least, as normal as it could be. I divided my time between hanging out with Zane, babying aphmau with the help of kaytlyn, and other friends. Daniel and I got to know each other, and every once in a while I'd take pics of rylan and June together. They're my 3rd favorite!

  I was watching Watashino Hero Academia (yes I changed the name on purpose) when I heard the doorbell ring. I got up to find Dante who was blushing, holding a pink photo album in his hands. "He-Hey kawaiichan... um.. i was wondering, since my handwriting is horrible, could you write "memories" on the cover of this album for me?" I stifled a chuckle. Dante was so much like Zane sometimes.

  "I don't think your handwriting's that bad, Dante-kun, but okay!" I took the album and wrote in fancy cursive. "Also could you decorate it? Write your name if you want so you can have credit."

  "Okaaaaay?" I doodled some flowers and unicorns and cupcakes. Scribbling my signature at the bottom, I giggled as Dante's face flushed as I gave it back. Red as his jacket, Dante thanked kawaiichan and walked home, trying to hide the album in his arms. This year could be a good year after all.

  "Zaaaaaaaane! We're out of sugar!" I cried.

  "Nana, I told you there's a package behind the bag of zucchini bread!" Zane called from upstairs. "FALSE!" I yelled back. I checked again. No sugar behind the zucchini bread. I pouted as I heard Zane mumbling as he climbed down the stairs.

  "See? Right there!" A green and white store-brand bag of sugar was nestled in the corner. "That's store brand," I complained. "I told you I only use the bakery kind."

  "Nana, aphmau and I have run EXPERIMENTS on the store brand. It has barely any less flavor, and for, like, half the price!" Zane groaned in frustration. They pouted at each other until I couldn't take the tension anymore. "Kiss and a cupcake?" I asked hopefully. Zane sighed in defeat and pulled down his mask for a kiss.

  But when we pulled out the cupcake rack, we were faced with a horrible sight. "APHMAU-SENPAI ATE ALL OF KAWAIICHAN'S CUPCAKES!!!!" I wailed. Zane growled at the last cupcake and reached for it. So did I, and we both hit it at the same time.

  I looked over and saw friendly competition in his eyes. You want a fight, you'll get one. "I call dibs!" I said. "Can't call dibs on food," Zane countered. "You made that up!" "No I didn't!"

  He glared at me. "The house is under my name," he stated. "I MADE the cupcakes!" "Here, let me taste test it for you to make sure aphmau hasn't put anything in it..." "ZANE-KUN!" I shoved him away and laughed. I saw the same laughter reflected in his eyes, tempered with mock anger. He grabbed the cupcake and pretended to take a bite. "Nooooooo!" I yelled, tackling him. We fell on the floor and I felt something get flattened like dough beneath my hand.

  "Oops." I picked up a flatted cupcake. Zane stared at it in shock. "How DARE you kill a cupcake!" He said it so fiercely that for a second I thought he was serious until I saw his eyes shut in laughter. "Knockout," I fake celebrated, then threw the cupcake away and cleaned up the mess. "Problem solved- neither of us eat it," I chuckled.

  "Or we could've split it," Zane mumbled.

  "Or that, too."

  Then I kissed him, my hands still sticky with cupcake.
