-Through The Playlist- Poly Dream Team (DreamNapFound) {CURRENTLY DISCONTINUED}

chapter 1: uh- cool.

nothing like some good ol' frustrating crushes to get this boat rolling!

tommy was screaming like a child again. to be fair, he sort of IS a child, but i digress. toby and darryl were covering their ears as tommy yelled at wilbur furiously. tommy was, of course, talking miles a minute. this time, he was mad at will because he didn't pick him up for school, so he had to walk a mile.

"FUCKYOUWILBURIPLAYMINECRAFTALLDAYDOYOUTHINKIHAVETHEBODYTOWALKAMILE?"

"tommy, listen. i forgot! i was talking with niki and we lost track of time and so we just sort of rushed to school without giving it a second thought!" wilbur said, rather calmly, even though there was a screaming 16 year old adolescent yelling at him in the courtyard.

"YOUALWAYSPICKMEANDTOBYUPWHYTHEFUCKDIDYOUNOTTODAY?"

"i just told you i was with niki!" wilbur put his arm around her in a boyfriend-ish type of way and laughed.

"DHSDJAIBSHFJIABSHVDSJFAIBZDJSAIWQBYOUREASIMPJDFHIHVCXXFHDSUFAUJBSHU"

"ok sure." wilbur said before walking off to a nearby bench to sit with niki.

"i feel so welcome after an introduction like that!" george laughed. "hey, where's clay?"

"he's sick i think. or something like that. he's usually early because he has to drop drista off at the middle school." nick said, shrugging it off. he was fine just spending his free period with george. his british accent was sorta cute when he laughed. he wished he could tell him but it was obvious he loved clay. clay wasn't too bad either. he was tall and had a cute laugh and got super flustered when he was embarrassed.

the three had known each other for practically forever, so clay was constantly making gay jokes towards george and nick. he, of course, didn't mean them. george and nick were both out of hope. clay was straight and george was oblivious.

"ok! uhm... what's new?" george muttered, pulling his backpack from the ground to one of the outdoor seating tables. "you ok? you look like you had a bad drea-"

"HEY BITCHES GUESS WHOSE CAR BROKE DOWN!" clay yelled, hoping a teacher didn't hear. george's eyes lit up as clay walked over across from george and nick. he glanced at nick casually with a laugh as nick put his head down on the table. "hey, why the glum face loser?"

"you started yelling right when tommy stopped. fughhhhhhhhhh." nick croaked. clay just sort of sat there and blinked while george had stars in his eyes.

"oh wait- tommy DID stop yelling! let's go back to sitting with the others!" george suggested quite happily. they all got up and went to sit with their other best friends. toby and tommy were sitting at one end, tommy obviously mad at toby for something. wilbur and niki moved back to the usual table. wilbur kissed her on the cheek and she giggled a bit. darryl and zak were ballroom dancing with each other near the table, an earbud in each ear, dancing to the music that was playing from zak's phone.

"hah! gay." clay said to darryl and zak as he sat down.

"you're obviously gay too, muffinhead." darryl said, as he put his earbud back in and resumed dancing with his boyfriend. clay's face turned red from embarrassment as he buried his expression into his hands, covered by his oversized lime green hoodie.

"dude it's ok if you're gay; i'm bi, there's nothing wrong with it." nick stated, which caught the two off guard.

"you're bisexual? uh- cool." george said, rather awkwardly. nick was sort of regretting telling them if they were going to be weird about it. nick just sort of gave the two a funny look to show them he was a bit hurt.

"what?" clay said, slouching a bit as he picked up his phone to scroll through twitter.

"nothing. just-" nick paused for a second. there was no way to say what he wanted to say without sounding selfish or narcissistic. "just have to go ask my algebra teacher a question about a test i have to retake."

with that, nick picked up his backpack and walked off; leaving clay and george looking at each other.

"for an actor, nick needs to get better at lying." clay commented.

"hm? what do you mean?" george asked.

"he doesn't have algebra this semester. he has it next semester! he should at least try and lie about a class he actually has."

"oh. why would he lie to us? it's probably something important. well, i'm gonna go ask will about jailbreaking my computer. it's so slow when i try to code mods and no matter what i do to try and get better software, it just crashes!" george complained.

"ok gogy. you do that!" clay laughed as he texted his sister a million cowboy emojis.

"shut uppppppppppp." george droned as he walked away.

nick was playing coolmathgames on his computer in the library. he lay across 3 dark blue beanbags near the corner of the audiobook section. he was just sort of zoning out while playing fireboy and lavagirl alone, because he's a lonely motherfucker, so he didn't see a shadow looming over him.

"you should try speedrunning this!" niki chatted, making him jump.

"oh hey! why aren't you with will and tommy and the others?" nick said as he closed his computer to talk to his best friend. (niki and nick are such wholesome friends in this story i'm jealous.)

"because you walked away from your boyfriends looking all sad! what happened?"

"it's just- i mentioned i was bi to them and they just sorta started acting weird."

"awwww i'm sorry. wait- you just kept the conversation going-" niki said.

"yeah, that's how a conversation goes? am i missing something here?" 

"i called them your boyfriends and you were fine with it!"

"shit." nick sighed.

"just try and spend some time with them. who knows? maybe they feel the same way about you!" niki advised, offering a smile and a hand for nick to grab as he got up.

"you know what? ok. maybe tonight, since it's friday." nick replied, feeling a little braver than he felt 5 minutes ago.

*bzz*

"oh, clay's texting me!"

Clay 🤠

"are you just gonna leave the conversation like that?" niki chuckled while peeking over his shoulder.

"yes," nick said as he hugged niki. "now let's go and bug tommy."

and just like that, nick walked out of the library to go and ask his crushes if they wanted to hang out that night.

"SHIT MY COMPUTER!"

well, right after nick went and grabbed his computer from the beanbag he left it on.
