loverman | hamzah

prologue | how it all started

it's common knowledge that the majority of the streams were scripted/pre-planned. but, that didn't mean everything was scripted. sometimes things happened in the moment, and sometimes they just did something for the fun of it.

after all, the 5freakshow was both professional and unprofessional at the same time.

for example, one of those unscripted things happened to be a tik tok that y/n made after one of the streams. specifically the one where hamzah was repeatedly talking about wanting a gamer girl, which was originally supposed to make haley 'jealous' or whatever. but y/n decided to put her own comedic spin on it.

after the stream finished, y/n posted a tiktok of her in 3x speed. it wasn't just any old tiktok of course, it was a clip of her playing some random game and eating in 3x speed, to the ever so iconic arthur theme song. she captioned it, 'i'm now officially a gamer girl. dance creds: @hamzahthefantastic 💖.'

it was innocent, completely, it wasn't supposed to be flirtatious. she just thought it was a funny tiktok. despite this, people in the comments had actually started to ship the two of them. believe it or not, some shipped them more-so then hamley, which was a surprise to almost everyone. but it was definitely a welcomed surprise.

chase saw an opportunity in this new rise of y/n and hamzah shippers. if people wanted y/n and hamzah, then that's what they were gonna get.

in the middle of one of their private calls, chase had randomly brought up the topic, crossing his arms to make it seem serious. though, nothing could actually be serious when the five were together.

"so... we've all seen y/n's tik tok by now. and yes, it's cute or whatever, and not mention the fan's are eating it up." the call falls quiet as they all listen to what chase has to say. y/n nods her head, encouraging him to keep speaking, which he does. "is there any chance that well... what i'm trying to say is; do you guys reckon you could, i don't know, fake a relationship? don't get mad! i'm just spitballing..."

chase closed his eyes, expecting to get shut down almost immediately, but he was quite surprised to hear clapping. he opens his eyes to find the culprit - who happened to be haley - and smiles.

haley, who hadn't stopped clapping her hands, started to nod her head as more and more ideas popped into her brain. "that's actually a great idea! and like, me and y/n could have an argument because i'm jealous or something. it'd make for some good content. it's basically perfect."

"you know me, i'm nothing but brains, talented and amazing." chase smiled his classic smile, jazzing his hands out. but in a matter of seconds, he quickly went back to a more serious state as he looked back at y/n. "so what do you guys say?"

one of hamzah's eyebrows raises as he starts thinking of the perfect thing to say. he knew he wanted to say yes, because he actually had one of the biggest crushes on the girl, but he didn't want to seem desperate. and so he was just going to play it off as being awkward.

after snapping out of his daze about y/n, hamzah lets out a breathy laugh, scratching the back of his neck. "hey, if she's comfortable with it, i'm down."

"he said he's down, what will y/n say next?" claire said in an australian accent, trying to lighten up the tension. "will she decline this request or will she say yes and become y/n the fantastic."

y/n also let out a laugh at the situation, but shrugged her shoulders nevertheless. "you know what, i don't see why not."

"and she said yes!" claire cheered, throwing her arms into the air with a quiet squeal. soon chase and haley joined in, leaving y/n and hamzah sitting there awkwardly. however, they both had genuine smiles on their face.

"perfect..." chase mumbles, rubbing his hands together. "the next stream is going to be so fun."
