Sykkuno would stream on and off through the week for hours but always have time during the day to see his boyfriend. Corpse would come and stay in LA two weeks at a time because of how long the drive would be, and he would sleep in either the guest room or with Sykkuno.
So one morning before Corpse was going to start the Among us stream in the guest bedroom, he decided to surprise Sykkuno. Corpse said afk during one of the emergency meetings, making up the excuse of having to start his stream. He turned off his mic and left the dark bedroom.
He made a trip downstairs to grab the box of cupcakes Lily had brought over earlier that day and went straight to Sykkuno's streaming room. Corpse slipped in undetected and got over to the desk where Sykkuno was debating on whether Toast was the imposter with Rae.
He sat the cupcakes down on the desk, catching Sykkuno's attention. Sykkuno looked up at him and grinned as Corpse slipped his thumb over the webcam. He motioned towards the mic and Sykkuno obliged, turning off the audio and the Twitch chat went nuts, asking where he was and if he was okay.
"Hey, I brought you something," He said, tapping at the top of the rectangular box.
"Aw, thank you!"
Corpse nodded and leaned down, kissing his boyfriend gently. Sykkuno kissed him back, his hands coming up to cup Corpse's face, fingers lightly brushing his dark brown curls. They pulled away, Sykkuno's grin becoming even bigger.
"I've got to go start my stream," Corpse mumbled, smiling as well.
Sykkuno nodded, pecking his lips again then his cheek, "You're going to do great!" He twisted one of Corpse's curls around his finger and then let go, the strand of hair bouncing. Corpse chuckled and backed up, pulling his thumb off of the webcam when he knew he wouldn't be in the frame.
He walked over to the door, then stopped in the frame, "Do you know where my eyepatch is?" Sykkuno's finger hovered over the audio box, not yet turning it on, "In the living room,"
"Thanks."
Sykkuno turned on his mic and was bombarded with the stream and Jack asking if he was okay since his mic went out mid-sentence. "Oh...yeah, my partner came to give me a snack," He said, glancing at Corpse who was still in the doorway, stifling his laugh. They'd talked about Sykkuno hinting at being in a relationship to make it not seem like it came out of nowhere when they were ready to announce it.
The discord call went wild, Rae and Poki's mic's pecking as they screeched, clamoring to know who it was, and whining that they didn't know. James just cackled while Felix made confused noises, not understanding what was going on to begin with.
Along with his streamer friends going nuts, his Twitch chat was being spammed with conspiracies about who it could be. The only one who was quiet on discord was Jack.
Sykkuno knew that Corpse had told Jack already since they were so close, Jack being like a dad to him and the first to see his face as well.
"The hell?" Corpse said, his voice raspy.
He glanced at the doorway to find Corpse gone, knowing he was basically a shadow when it came to moving around the townhouse.
"Did you know?!" Rae basically shouted.
"Know what?"
Poki huffed in annoyance, slapping her hands on her desk, "Did you know that Sykkuno has a partner?!" She said, dragging out her words. Corpse played dumb, "Oh, congrats dude. They must be pretty lucky." Sykkuno could swear he heard Poki roll her eyes at that answer, though she couldn't go on any further because the vote timer went out and Toast was ejected.
He laughed and continued with his task in the game before a small bing pulled him out of filling the ship's gas. Sykkuno looked over at the second screen, a soft flush tenting his cheeks as he read the discord private message from Corpse.
I'm very lucky if I do say so myself ;)
