The Girl in the Basement (Toby Turner Fanfic)

K-Katie?

One more day passed and the two have not said a word to either of each other. For Toby, it was slowly killing him. So today, he decided that he will go down and record a video. He had to record, because he was running out of videos to just upload.

Getting up the courage to walk down to the cellar, Toby grabbed his camera and pad of paper and trailed down the stairs to go record. Once he hit the bottom step, he looked around the room, to see just a glance of Katie would give him a bit of hope, but non came to him. His heart pounded in his chest as he walked over to his recording station. Toby cleared his throat and pulled his chair up to the desk.

"Hello once again, audience!" he said into the camera, smiling and clicking on "MyworldthatIloveforyou" on Minecraft. A small chuckle came from his lips as he read the title that he clicked on. The world formed and he started walking around and collecting items.

"See that cow? This cow is my friend. Right cow?" he asked as he walked up to the cow that was nearby. Toby changed accents and went to a high pitched girlish one. "Why yes, Toby! I love you!" he made the cow reply back to him. Toby continued playing Minecraft and building for his recording.

Kaitlin sat by the book shelf reading that day. Thoughts of Toby still wandered through her mind, but she tried her absolute best to rid of him. What he said that afternoon really tore at her heart. When someone you like..really like, screams at you and discriminates you of something you did, can really tear you down and kill you slowly.

A noise from the door up the stairs tore her attention away from the book in her hands and made her look up. Coming down the stairs slowly was Toby, holding a camera and a pad of paper in his hands. He has finally come downstairs to record.

A soft sigh came from Katie as she glanced back down from her book. Toby didn't come back down to make amends, just to record...

Standing up, Katie went over to watch Toby play the game he was playing for his channel. 'Minecraft' was what it read on the screen. She's never really heard of Minecraft, but maybe she'll find out watching Toby. Katie wanted to be as close to Toby as she could...because this will probably be the only time she will ever be close to him.

The video dragged on until Toby finally started to end it. "This is where I end the video! I love you. Bless your face, if you sneezed while watching me play with a cow, then bless you! Peace off, boop!" Toby clicked the end button on his recording set and exited out of the game. He stretched and leaned back forward to his set, bringing up yet another random game Katie has not heard of.

Toby did this for a couple of hours. Playing games, recording them, talking with his audience, and basically just fooling around with his games. A small twinkle of light seemed to shine in his eyes and he seemed to forget everything around him. It was obvious Toby found the joy and fulfillment out of his work and he could honestly do it for hours.

Toby uploaded his first video for today on his channel Tobygames for his audience. "Ah, finally." Toby interlocked his fingers and stretched out, cracking all of them almost at once. "Much better," he said quietly. "I have plenty of games uploaded and done for the day. Good job, Tobes." A small laugh came from him and he started going through comments on his videos.

MegaMind1345: Woah, are you adding a new features to your videos?! Creepy ghost in the back was awesome!

A confused look spread across Toby's face, same with Katie as she read the comments with him.

FalconL0verFan: Creepy ghost there dude...not sure if I'm diggin it.

ThisGirlRocksABillionTimes: What kind of software are you using for that...?

The comments just kept coming like this and Toby clicked on the video, watching his camcorder to see what they were seeing. Katie leaned over and looked too, wondering what all the commotion was about. There in the screen, was Katie herself. She was super pale and see through, but the image of her was still see-able. Toby looked behind him, directly at Katie, but she stayed hidden to him.

"K-Katie..?" he seemed to choke out a bit, looking around. Kaitlin looked directly at him, seeing if she saw any true emotions. What she saw was remorse and discomfort. He did feel bad.

Kaitlin made herself visible and looked at him. Toby's eyes lit up a bit and he stood up quickly.

"Katie, I am so sorry, I didn't mean to yell out like that. It was just kind of frustrating at the time wit everything..." said Toby quickly, scratching the back of his neck nervously.

Katie smiled and wrapped her arms around him. A sort of heat came off of him and it brought her a comforting feeling. "It's alright, Toby. We were both wrong in that situation and we should just leave it behind us," she replied softly to him. Suddenly, she felt arms wrap around her and keep her close to him. Toby rested his chin on her head and nodded. "Let's."

-~- I don't even remember who had this idea, but you know who you are! I went through my comments and lost you, so <3 I love you though! -~-
