"EVERYONE PLACES! GARROTH! APHMAU! GET ON STAGE NOW!"

Garroth and Aphmau ran up on the stage and sat on the couches. They straightened their clothes, holding their notes cards. They then looked at the audience.

"Ah fuck. There's only three people here." Garroth said. "Oh well, please welcome in the most beautiful and intelligent author, Gerella!"

The crowd went wild aka the three lovely readers clapped slowly as Gerella walked on stage. She waved at the audience and sat on the couch across from Garroth and Aphmau.

"Hello Gerella! How are you doing today?" Aphmau asked her.

"I'm doing well, I guess. I came here in very short notice." Gerella informed. "So why am I here again?"

"Ah yes!" Garroth exclaimed. "Since you're not posting on this book until Valentine's Day, why not have a bonus chapter to keep those three peeps here until then."

"Oh my! What a great idea! How come I couldn't think about this myself?" Gerella laughed.

"So, Gerella, may you give us some fun facts about 'just a children's game'?" Aphmau asked.

"Well, this book is actually my first ever Garmau fanfiction I've ever made."

Garroth sniffled. "I feel so honored to be the first Garroth that you made."

"But then, I put it on pause to focus on my other fanfiction named 'love me back or else!'." Gerella winked at the audience. "Shameless self-promo."

"But after you finish with the other Aphmau and Garroth, you came back to us, the way better Aphmau and Garroth." Aphmau flipped her hair.

"Come on guys, they were teenagers." Gerella said. "But yes, I did indeed come and restarted the book since my writing style improved."

"Next fact!" Garroth exclaimed.

"Garroth's daughter, Raven, is named after the wyvern from MCD." Gerella informed.

"A wy-what?" Aphmau looked at her with a confused look. "And MCD? Like McDonald's?"

"I just though the name 'Raven' was a beautiful name for my first daughter." Garroth said.

"Don't worry, Garroth, I liked the name too." Gerella smiled at him.

"Next fact!" He exclaimed. "This is your final fact before we ask you a few questions."

"As we all know, Aphmau works as an architect. Well, that's my dream job." Gerella laughed awkwardly.

"Woah, really? You really want the job I have?" Aphmau questioned.

"Yup, but being writer is also another occupation that I would love to do." Gerella scratched the back of her neck, looking at the opposite direction.

"Well, you're technically a writer, you write stories." Garroth said.

"Yeah, if it weren't for you, we wouldn't exist." Aphmau grabbed his hand.

Gerella looked back at them. "Thank you guys." She smiled. "Anyways, what are the questions, I really need to sleep, it is a school day."

"Question number uno, are the present students of Phoenix Drop High such as Athena, Charles and Patrick, based on real people?" Garroth asked.

"Why yes. Athena is based on my best friend of almost 10 years, she the best y'all. Charles is based on my best friend's boyfriend. So, in real life, the real Athena and Charles are dating." Gerella informed. "Those aren't their real names by the way, just don't want to expose them without their permission."

"What about Patrick?" Aphmau wiggled her eyebrows.

"Oh, he's based on my ex." Gerella laughed.

Nobody else laughed.

"Kian, Tristan and Patrick are all based by my exes. The real Kian and I dated for almost a year but I broke it off because I hated the distance of him being in another city."

"That must suck." Aphmau said.

"He was a very great guy, but it was the best for us." Gerella smiled. "Then there was the real Tristan. Him and I dated 3 times, for 2 days, for almost 2 months and then 6 days."

"Dammmmn!" Garroth, Aphmau and the three readers exclaimed.

"First, I broke up with him for being too clingy, then, I again broke up with him for being too clingy, finally, he broke up with me to be with another girl."

"But wait, isn't he Gerella's current boyfriend in the story?" Garroth questioned.

Gerella placed her index finger on the middle of her lips. "Spoilers, my dude."

"Oh. What about Patrick?"

"The real Patrick was honestly my favorite boyfriend, but sadly we broke up because it didn't feel right yet we still loved each other." Gerella sighed. "Oh well. We're just friends now."

"Will your current crush, J, be included in the story?" Aphmau asked.

Gerella shrugged, smirking. "Next question, please."

"Where did you get the idea for this book?"

"Ah well, I honestly don't know what was my 12-year-old self was thinking back then. I'm guessing my inspirations are kids and love." Gerella said.

"Lastly, what motivated you  to start writing not only this book but also your other books?"

"I had to let this weird imagination of mine somehow." She laughed. "And writing them down was the answer. I wanted to show my ideas to the public and here I am."

"I guess that's it for today, folks!" Garroth exclaimed.

"Please stay tune for the next chapter coming on either the 14th or 15th of February." Aphmau informed. "Would you like to say anything, Gerella?"

"I hope you guys enjoyed this bonus. Thank you all so much for all of your support and patience. I love you all with all my heart! I'll see you all soon!" Gerella waved goodbye.
