Elara's POV:
"Onyx!!!! Wake up!!!!" I yell at the top of my lungs. Today is the day. My day. THE day. I have been waiting for this for months. All with the mix of the fear, nervousness and usual dose of anxiety. I am Sparknfire. My channel is mostly focused around you know games. Well a lot of things are happening today. One is more important than the others.
Eventually the boo does awake and I give her the a little boop and run away like the five year old I really am. My mom doesn't approve my relationship with Onyx. I mean she can be a little bit protective at times, but her intentions are for the right reasons. She is just trying to protect me. Growing up my life was not picture perfect. When I was in the third grade, my dad and my little brother got into a serious accident on their way to the store and they died with my last words still haunting me to this day.
Since then people always made fun about my dead family. I had the nickname Death for me because after third grade, someone always died. In fourth grade it was a elderly librarian. In fifth our math teacher. Sixth-English, seventh-principal, eighth-assistant principal, freshman- superintendent. After that one my mom started to home school me. I still don't know if the thing is still going on. That was the year I had my first job.
That is one of many things that make this day special. Today is the first day that I started to work at the Country Boys BBQ. That is where I met Onyx when I was 17. That was four years ago. To think that we were friends for this long. That lasted about four months, all because of a peanut oil problem that would not have been taken care of for my safety. I quit about three months later, but the two of us stayed in touch.
I eventually got a job at Subway where I still am and am very happy. I reminisce in the shower while my boo is fixing breakfast. To be honest if I didn't start my job experience at that old BBQ place, I would have never became the person I am today. Onyx is more than just a girlfriend. She is my own personal coach. She lifts my spirits when I'm down. She cares for me, loves me, and shall I say makes me comfortable around her. That makes thing number two: It's our three year anniversary.
As I get ready, my mind is in total chaos. Oh. and here is number three. I have my own PAX panel with my two inspirations: Ethan Nestor and Mark Fischbach. As I put on my snap back, I begin to second guess my outfit. Are the ripped jeans too much? They do match my shirt. Is my shirt too cheesy? I mean it's my merch but my little dude seems a little childish. Should I leave the hat? But the hat matches my little boy. Should I wear my Nike instead of the Vans? They both work.
While I am in this nervous state of mind, Onyx sneaks up behind me and does a surprise hug. It some how snaps me out of what ever I was thinking. She feels my body slowly relax. "You look perfect. So stop your worrying." All of this gets me totally out or my anxiety overthinking process. We quickly eat and leave for the biggest moment of my life.
First thing I do when I enter those doors is try to get through all of the people. I know this is a big event I am amazed that that was nothing but an understatement. Soon enough we make it to our room. As we get me set for the mike, my mind is overflowing with so much. I felt someone pull on my arm. I look over and it's Onyx. Then I see what's in her hand and my face turns cold how could I forget all four. "OMG babe! You are a literal life saver!" I say wile I slip on my medical bracelets.
"I saw them on the bathroom sink before we left and this was the first time I could give them to you." She gives me a good luck peck and runs to take her seat in the front row like always.
So I was sitting there in the corner as the people were filing in, on my phone texting Onyx to live stream the panel for the fans, when someone came up. "Hey, you'r Elara from Sparknfire right?" I look up to the familiar voice and I freeze. It was HIM. THE Crankgameplays, Ethan Nestor. All I could do is sit there and shake my head.
