"EARTH TO Y/N! YOU THERE?"

──────

"yes i'm here- sorry will". god, what had gotten into you? ever since the stream with quackity a few weeks ago you felt like something was off with him. he barely called to check in on you and he never replied to your texts anymore. even if he did have a girlfriend- this was odd for him, he didn't even reply to your tweets anymore.

"you seem a bit distracted y/n, what's on your mind?" the curly haired brunette, furrowed his brows- a sense of worry flooding his face as he saw how strange you had been acting.

"o-oh, what on my mind? well- alex. to be quite frank." you said with a sigh, knowing this wasn't going to end well. "he hasn't been talking to me recently" you said a somber tone decorating your voice, "i can't help but feel like he's mad at me or something- i don't understand what i did wrong. its been weeks wilbur and he doesn't even reply to my tweets anymore. and don't pull this, he's probably busy 'cause of natalia bullshit because he still streams and talks to you guys all the time. it's like he's purposely avoiding talking to me".

"you know what, now that you mention it- alex has been mentioning you less in our conversations as well. it used to always be, 'y/n this' 'y/n that' and you're right, he's also interacting with you way less on social media. it's kind of sus as fuck" wilbur said, "this is why we always vote him off first in among us" he laughed, throwing a joke in at the end to make the conversation more light hearted.

"he would talk about me?" you asked, your heart swelling up a bit at the idea.

"yes y/n all the time- and it was always really nice things. i'm surprised tommy never told you- i thought you knew this" wilbur stated "but you know what- i'll talk to him for you y/n-, cause this is weird- - even for alex".

ALEX'S POV- third person.

the black haired boy laid comfortably on his couch with tiger and natalia and his arms. truth was- ever since that realization he had on his stream, that he could possibly like you- (as more than a friend) he was trying to spend more time with natalia and less time with you to get those thoughts out of his head. but it was fucking impossible. every time one of his friends mentioned you, or he saw you'd post on social media- you were all he could think about. even with his girlfriend right in front of him.

feeling his phone vibrate in his pocket, he picked it up seeing that he had gotten a message from will- asking him if he could call- since it was probably gonna be about something casual, alex quickly texted back a short but straightforward "sure". getting up from his couch, he turned to natalia with a small smile- "i have to take a call real quick- but i'll be right back, okay? don't go anywhere" he joked, kissing the girl on the cheek. she simply nodded and smiled- oblivious to the weird behavior her boyfriend was having, due to the idea that she had only been dating him since he acted like that.

walking over to his desk, alex opened up his discord and called wilbur, who quickly answered.

"que paso?" (what's up) alex asked, with a slight laugh, hoping to earn a chuckle from wilbur- who surprisingly just stayed silent.

"i don't know what that means- so i'm gonna cut straight to the chase: why have you been ignoring y/n? that's a bitch move alex" wilbur said, completely being serious.

alex's smile immediately dropped and his heart felt heavy- "pft- ignoring y/n, why do you mean? i still text her back every once in a while".

"cut the shit alex- you know that's a fucking lie. y/n said ever since you've streamed with her things have been different between the two of you. and i think it's really fucking unfair that she doesn't get to know what's wrong with you" wilbur stated. if tommy was like your little brother, wilbur was like your big brother. ever since he met you he felt an overwhelming need to take care of you and be there for you- he knew you needed someone like that in your life and he was happy to be that person.

"okay! you got me! fuck! i have been ignoring her! is that what you want to hear, wilbur?" alex said defensively. "i've been ignoring her because i think i fucking like her." he said quietly, with fear of natalia hearing in the other room. "look- ever since that live stream it's like a stupid switch went off in my tiny little rat brain-"

"and you realized y/n is amazing, smart, kind, incredibly attractive, and literally does everything for you?" wilbur interrupted,

"can you let me speak? but yes- essentially i realized i've been looking for the wrong kind of girls when i have the best one right in front of me" alex admitted, completely and utterly defeated. "but i'm conflicted- i like natalia too! she's really nice- and she'll play video games with me, even though she doesn't know what's going on, and she's not very good at them, she takes care of me, she calls me nice names that make me feel yknow- all cutesy n stuff, and she's really pretty. not to mention, she actually lives in mexico-"

"sounds like you just found a replacement y/n- with the only pro being that she lives near you." wilbur said, "look, i don't know how but you have to make it up to y/n- and if you're only excuse to dating natalia rather than y/n us that she lives near you- you need to reevaluate your fucking life decisions, mate. distance is something you can easily change." the tall man said, hoping to spark an idea in alex's head.

"so you're saying- i break up with natalia, and fly to the UK for y/n?" alex questioned, "is that worth the risk? what if y/n doesn't like me back?"

"first of all- y/n likes you- i know she's supposed to be the one to tell you this, but c'mon alex it's quite obvious isn't it? secondly- you can still come visit me! tommy! philza! tubbo! and the whole british gang-" wilbur laughed, "it's worth the risk-" he said with a small smile- liking the direction in which this was unfolding. "but before you come- apologize to y/n- say your sorry for being a dick, buddy. if not, she may be even more pissed at you when you show up-"

"okay, okay- i'm gonna think about this a little more- but i'm pretty sure i'm gonna do it- and you know what- i'm gonna text her right now and check up on her" alex nodded.

"okay- now that that's settled, my job is done here- bye alex" wilbur said.

"bye will-" he said, a smile settling onto his face as he immediately pulled his phone out again- walking back to the living room.
