twelve - irl

I joined the call with Ezra and not gonna lie it was verryyyyy awkward. We have never talked before besides the few times we've texted. Anndddd now i'm scared i'm gonna be awkward.

"I'll invite you real quick" Ezra tells me. I can tell he's not an awkward person when it comes to strangers, but i don't know like the vibe is weird.

"Okay." I say, clicking on the invite notification.

"We're playing quick match right?" He asks. I think about nodding to avoid conversation, but then realize he can't see me.

"Yeah that's fine."

The game eventually loads up and the map is bank, yummy.

"Ew bank." I hear Ezra mumble. My eyes widen, how dare he disrespect bank like that.

"Pretty sure you're the only one that doesn't like Bank" I tell him. He chuckles at this.

"It's not funny. Bank is the besttt"

"Okay sydney, if you say so." He says. I can't help but smile when he says my name. His voice makes my heart flutter.

"Ok quick should i be frost or Kapkan?" I ask Ezra. We only had 5 seconds left to choose.

"Hurry up!" I exclaim.

"Okay chill, Frost."

I sigh in relief. If you can't tell video games make me very overdramatic.

After about 3 matches and an overwhelming amount of screaming from myself, we start to get very comfortable around each other.

We start another match and he literally steals the operator i was going to choose. I gasp loudly and he wheezes.

"Heck off Raccoon Eggs." I say, knowing me calling him that makes him mad. He continues to laugh until he starts coughing.

"It's not that funny." I say between laughs. Before we know it, we're both having a laughing fit. We're in one of those moods where lit rally everything is hilarious.

"I think I just coughed up my lung." He says, letting out another wheeze. This only made us laugh harder.

I eventually calm down and say, "okay we're gonna get kicked from the match. we've been afk for like 5 minutes." I tell him. He lets out the remainder of his laughs and agrees that we should focus.

"People in the kitchen." I tell him. I hear silence before Ezra screams a loud, "F*ck!"
(A/N: I'm sorry i can't bring myself to type out a whole cuss word 😔)

"They literally came out of nowhere!" He says, obviously mad.

"I just told you where they were." I said. I can't help but laugh at his ignorance. He takes a breath and then chuckles. We lose this round, but the other team is garbage so we win the match anyways.

"Okay well I think i'm gonna get off." He tells me.

"Yeah me too." I reply

"It's been fun talking to you, we definitely have to do this again." He says. I feel myself start blushing. He literally didn't even say anything romantic why am i blushing?

"Definitely."
