Before we begin, I just want to say a few things. First being, that this is another request by @deadshot2911 so I hope I did well! Second, my friends, @MonkeyLunchbox , has been creating this stupid book based off of stuff we say at lunch (but with a plot) and I promised to promote it. So if you like funny, random, stupid, nonsense, please go check it out! And finally, this is chapter 50!!! I'm so proud and happy with how this has been turning out, and I really want to thank everyone who has continued to read and comment and vote on this. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I appreciate it so much! writing for you guys has become a big stress reliever for me. A lot of negative things in my life have been going on, and seeing the support and kindness from you guys really amazes me. I'm sure you all have read this before a hundred times, or skip over stuff like this, but if you do read this, know that you all mean so much to me. And now without further adieu....

(Y/n) P.O.V.

I sit patiently in my seat, waiting for the panel to begin. I promised by boyfriend, Ethan, that I would be here in the crowd for him. Nobody knew about us yet, so I wasn't concerned with being spotted or mobbed or hated or anything. But I still really shy, and decide to sit in a corner to avoid human contact at all costs. After about five minutes, the lights dim, and the stage lights brighten. "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Markiplier, CrankGamePlays, Jacksepticeye, and LordMinion777!" The crowd cheers excitedly. It's very loud, making me flinch a little at first. The four lovable idiots run up on stage. I smile proudly as I see Ethan.

"Well, wowie guys, look at this place!" Ethan says in a funny voice. They others agree, but Ethan isn't done. "Well guys, I have someone I want you to meet." He says to the crowd and his friends. I'm paralyzed, praying he doesn't mean me. It's not that I don't want the fans to know, or meet his friends, but this is a lot. The other three YouTubers look as confused as the people in the crowd. "I set this up with the lighting crew. Everyone, I'd like to introduce my beautiful girlfriend, (Y/n)!" I shrink into my seat as a spotlight appears over me. I wake shyly, covering my face. The crowd has gone wild. "Come on up here!" Ethan says. A few people near me give me a little push.

I breathe heavily as I walk up the stage. Ethan embraces me, whilst moving his mic for a moment. "You're okay, I've got you. I won't make you stay up here, but I would appreciate it." He whispers. I simply nod, not wanting to let him down. But I'm scared as fuck. He kisses my forehead, making fans cheer, and leads me to awkwardly take a seat next to him. He moves his mic back, and setting me up with one. "How have I not met her?" Mark whines. I turn a bit red, and fiddle my fingers. "Cause you're not observant enough." Jack replies, which makes me laugh softly. Ethan gives me a look of approval.

"She's a bit shy guys, let's give her a big welcome." Ethan says. The crowd roars in approval, giving me a little more confidence. The guys continue on, playing various games and answering questions. Every now and then Ethan will move the mic to reassure me. Things like, "I've got you," "You're doing great," and "I love you, baby. I'm so proud." It fills me with happiness. The panel continues on with me not having to speak or interact with people except for when a fan asked me one question. "How long have you been hiding?" The girl asks. She didn't ask it in a menacing way, or a rude way, but in a playful way meant to be funny. I give a shy smile, and answer softly. "A little over two months." The crowd hollers.

Once the panel had finally ended, and everyone had left, the guys suggested going out to eat. Ethan asked if I was okay with going, which I nodded to. "Where should we go?" Jack asks. Ethan puts an arm around my shoulder, pulling me close, and kissing my temple. "Do have a preference?" He asks. "What about....(restaurant)?" I suggest quietly, but they can still here me. "Yes!" Wade answers enthusiastically, which makes me giggle. We all get in separate cars to drive over. Once Ethan and I are in the car I speak to him how I always do. Confidently and without the shy undertone. He just makes me so much more comfortable, and I don't have to hide from him. "That was an interesting way to introduce me. Thanks for the warning." I say sarcastically but playfully.

He laughs. "I'm sorry, but I thought it would be good for you. You're so shy when you don't have to be. You're perfect and amazing. Something everyone should see and hear." He says. I blush. "You're lucky I love you." I remark. He chuckles. "Love you too." He parks once we get to the restaurant, and once we've seated, I'm immediately shy again. "So how's you two meet?" Mark asks me. "Oh, um, h-he bumped into me at a coffee shop." I answer quietly. "Haha, Ethan's a klutz." Mark teases. "Then how could he be backflip guy?" I ask, mumbling, but they still hear me. They all laugh loudly. "I think I like you're girlfriend better then you." Jack teases. "Well that's not fair, we need backflip guy." Wade interject. I giggle along with them softly.

"Well, I'm sure you know what we idiots do. What are you currently doing?" Wade asks once everyone's calmed themselves. I feel a little pressured, like I'm being questioned by his parents. Lucky for me, I love my job. "I'm not really known much, but I'm a painter. I sell them to local stores, and online. I love it so much. Art really is my medium. It's a great way for me to express myself and my feelings, or just to have fun. It's an amazing feeling of pride when you finish a beautiful piece of art." I finish, a smile on my face. I realize I had been speaking confidently and at a normal volume. Jack, Mark, and Wade look at me, mouth open in awe and shock. Ethan, smiling with pride, scoots from his chair over to me. He presses a sweet kiss to my lips, making my insides rumple with butterflies and happiness. "I'm so proud of you." He insists. I smile, and kiss his cheek. "You know what? Me too."
