"Are you ready?" Nil calls throwing a pillow at the bathroom door.

"Yeah yeah, sorry we can't all look good the second we wake up." Kugo laughs as he comes out the bathroom, wiping his face with a towel.

They both packed their small bags with various things they might need and started their walk towards the convention center. They had decided on a hotel a few blocks from the center so fans wouldn't mob them and follow them back.

Nil knew something was up because Kugo had been acting guilty but she looked over all the famous attendees that announced they would be there and none of the crew would be there. Or they just hadn't announced it. She was anxious but it had been a while since she'd been to a convention so she tried to ignore her nerves.

She hadn't built up the courage to face them yet. Maybe LuLu and Toby, but Cam? Definitely not yet.

A few fans had approached for Kugo when they got in front of the convention center but when they realized that Nil was there they wanted a picture with her too. She even signed a few people's passes.

"You seem a little amazed?" Kugo looks over at Nil as they check in with the desk before heading into the show floor.

"I really didn't think I was that popular. Definitely not popular enough for people to want my signature," Nil shrugs.

"Didn't you hit one million subs on your Instagram the other week?" He jokes and she laughs.

"Okay I guess you're right. Come on let's find some computers and kick ass," She looks at the map and quickly leads them to a section that was closed off with 10 computers in two rows of 5, obviously set up for team games.

"Excuse me, aren't you Kugo?" One of the workers from behind the line asks.

"Oh yeah that's me," He nods.

"We were just about to open the line for people to play up on the big screen, if you and your friend want to play." The worker points towards the stage where 10 other computers with counterstrike loaded up were.

"We'd love to," Kugo replies and Nil nods.

"Great just go up and pick whatever computers you like we're gonna make an announcement about the little competition we're having," the guy pulls the chord up, letting Nil and Kugo back stage so they could go up.

"Excuse me ladies and gents and anything in between, if you look to the stage we have 10 computers setup for some competitive counter strike, however, we have a different game mode today. You have 10 lives and once you lose those 10 lives you're out. Whoever lives for the longest amount of time at the end of each day wins a 100$ gift card and is entered into a raffle to win a full gaming set up!" The guy announces but Kugo and Nil aren't listening.

"It's all vs all, wanna team?" Kugo asks.

"I don't think we're allowed to but if I see you I'll pretend I didn't," Nil smiles and they shake hands.

After about an hour Kugo let's himself die because he got bored. "Nil I'm gonna run to the food area, would you like anything?"

"No thank you, I'll finish up in a few minutes or so and meet up with you." Nil smiles at him and he nods.

After another half hour Nil gives up and starts to wander the floor.

"Nil?" Her heart stops when she hears the familiar voice.

"Jay, uh..." Nil slowly turns, not really prepared to face him but more worried there were others with him.

"I'm so glad you're okay," he quickly pulls her into a hug and she can't help but hug him back. She hears a few people start whispering around them and Jay takes her hand, leading her behind some curtains that said media only.

"Who else is here?" Nil immediately asks, her nerves crawling up on her.

"I came by myself. I've been here since Tuesday because I had an interview with a game magazine," Jay explains. Nil doesn't believe him but she looks down at the ground, avoiding his eyes.

"I'm sorry..." she whispers out.

"What? No! You don't have anything to be sorry for," Jay starts panicking, thinking she's gonna start crying.

"I shouldn't have just disappeared like that I'm so sorry, I just realized some things and needed to distance myself, still do." She adds.

"What did you realize?" Jay puts his hands on her shoulders, hoping to calm her down.

"I don't want to talk about it." She sighs.
