Saving Eddy

2

Think Brett! Think!! What else can you do?? I have never felt as useless until now.

All evening I've been scrolling checking and re-rechecking LingLingIsMe's socials.

I replied to one of her IG stories using the fake account I made for her.

B: Wow, you're so lucky to see Eddy in person. Do you live in the same area as him?

She instantly replied.

L: Not really. I'm actually from Melbourne but I transferred here to study.

B: Why would you transfer from Melbourne? There are a lot of good schools there.

L: To be near Brett and Eddy of course!

B: Wow, that's dedication!

L: Of course, I'm their number 1 fan!

B: In one of your posts, Eddy was with a girl. Who is she?

L: I don't know! It's the first time I saw them together. I wonder if Brett knows that Eddy's going out with another girl. Poor Brett.

B: Why? I don't think Eddy and Brett are really together in real life. Do you?

L: It's either they are or not. If not, then I'm gonna be THE gf.

B: So, it's okay for you if Brett and Eddy would be together?

L: Of course! That's the only set up I'd be okay with. I mean who can rival their relationship??

B: I see. Well, I do hope she's not his GF.

L: Same here. GTG. I need to practice, you should too! ;D

Eddy and I have just finished the performance of Sibelius Violin Concerto for our 3 Million milestone on YouTube. Eddy and I are soaked from sweat from playing, still stoked from the adrenaline. I looked at Eddy who was still talking to the camera, almost panting... It's now or never.

"Eddy, do you trust me?" Eddy looks at me quizzically.

"Of course, bro."

"Are you sure?"

"Duh! 100%."

I looked at the camera... held his hand high..

"Hi guys, I want to make this milestone not only special for the channel but personally for us as well. I want to officially announce that Eddy and I are together. I hope you accept us and continue to love us as you all guys have for the past years. We love you!" I announced while holding on to Eddy's hand tightly. If LingLingIsMe thinks that we're together, she might settle down, right?

Eddy dove into the laptop and ended the livestream, but he didn't say anything for the longest time. He just stood there looking at me with his violin and bow hanging from each hand. I guess he was waiting for me to explain, but I have no words, because I don't know what to say either. I don't want to scare him.

Eddy walked off, placing his violin in his case wordlessly then walked to the bathroom. I heard the shower turn on. I sat down, and opened my phone. Sure enough, it was utter chaos in all our social media, but there's only one account I'm interested in. I typed in LingLingIsMe's user account..

"OMG. Brett FINALLY confirmed it!! Our BREDDY is real!!!"

I smirk. I don't know about that. In fact, Eddy still hasn't said a word to me.

"Eddy?" I saw him come out of his bathroom and walked to his bedroom.

"C'mon, Eddy talk to me. You said you trusted me."
