"Yo," Ray laughs, incredulous, he's starting to feel a little hot. "How do you find these? Are these your bookmarks?" Madi snorts, taking his phone back. Scrolling again. "They find me." Ray isn't unfamiliar with the fact that some people in their fanbases ship them. He isn't unfamiliar with the fact that Madi knows all about it, either. He knows that Madi indulges, because Madi's always online. Ray's reacted to Madi watching an edit before, on stream. He remembers that he said he and Madi look like a couple. 𓂃⸝⸝⟢ Or: Ray's seen the edits, and he knows it's all a joke. Until it's not.

reem loves kaleel, it's as simple as that but...

Ray and Madi know that better than anyone. Two streamers. Millions of eyes watching their every move. One relationship built on half-truths, broken promises, and the kind of love that hurts more than it heals.
