Count On Me: Spifelk

Skephalo Gets Involved

Skeppy was lying on BadBoyHalo's lap, watching a Disney movie that Bad chose, when his phone started ringing.
"Hello?"
"Skeppy?"
"Zelkum, what do you need?"
"I- well, I may or may not need you to help me figure out what the hell I'm feeling."
"Okay... what do you mean?"
"Alright, so, you know how I moved in with Spifey, right? Well... I just can't help but find myself looking at him a lot. Like, I'm always admiring every little detail, from his hair, to his eyes, to his voice, to his complete and utter ridiculousness. It doesn't help that he fake flirts with me all the time, and I always feel myself get really hot. It doesn't make any sense to me, and I need you to help me figure out why I keep acting like this around my best friend."
"Zelk, that sounds like a classic case of crush-itis to me. That was literally what Mega texted me when I told him that he had a crush on you all those months ago."
"What? B-b-but I- I can't have a crush on- on him! We're just- we're just friends. He doesn't like me!"
"Do you know that?"
"Yeah! Well... no, but- th-that's not the point, Skeppy! Fix me!"
"Fix you?"
"I don't wanna have a crush on Spifey! What if- what if he doesn't like me? Everything would be so awkward if I asked him and he said no, since we live together... but I can't just say nothing! If I stand a chance, then I'm really missing out on something big if I stay silent. What do I do?"
"Woah, there, Zelk, you having an existential crisis right now?" Zelk's only reply was a long, drawn out groan. "Well, I'll talk to you when you can speak proper English," Skeppy said before hanging up.
"So, Zelk likes Spifey, huh?"
"Yeah, and it's a bad case, too. It's giving me deja vu from when Mega wanted to ask Zelkum. Only this time it's worse."
"That does not sound good," Bad commented.

"Hello?" Bad answered, picking up his own phone.
"Hey," Spifey's voice came through the speakef. "I need help. I have a major crush problem and I need help in winning him over."
"Wait a second, Spifey," Bad placed a hand over the speaker and mic as to block it. "Do I tell him about what Zelk said?"
"No! Don't tell him!" Skeppy responded fast, not having any idea what Spifey was saying.
"Alright, sorry, Spifey. Go on," Bad prompted.
"Well, you see, I've had a crush on Zelk for a while now, but it's only getting bigger now that we live together. He even let me sleep in his bed, crazy as it is. Today, some girl was hitting on me, and I was getting really uneasy, but he posed as my boyfriend to get her to go away. I told him that, if he asked me out, I'd say yes, and he didn't get the hint, somehow. How do I win him over?"
"Well, tell you what: Skeppy and I will enlist some people and we will help you out. Got it?"
"Yeah, thanks BBH!"
"No problem, muffin!" Spifey hung up, and Skeppy looked at Bad expectantly.
"What did he want?"
"It looks like two idots have the biggest crushes on each other," Bad explained.
"Even bigger than the one I have on you?"
"Skeppy, you can't have a crush on somebody that you're dating," the older laughed, resting his head on the younger's. "You and I are going to talk to Vurb, Finn, and Spifey tomorrow and give Spifey some tips on how to send the right hints so that Zelk picks up on the fact that Spifey likes him."
"And what do we do about Zelk?"
"Well, we'll get your staff to talk with him about his feelings and try to get him confident enough to actually ask Spifey out."
"Sounds like a plan," Skeppy smiled, closing his eyes. Bad, exhausted, lifted his boyfriend up and carried him to their shared bedroom. He turned off the lights and took of his glasses before laying Skeppy down on the bed. Bad planted a kiss on Skeppy's forehead before crawling into bed with him.
"Goodnight, Geppy. I love you."
