Chapter 4

***---wooo time skip woooo---***

Me and Tommy were on the SMP nearly every day, he would pretend to hate me because I was American. The only reason he “hung out” with me was so we could finish my house. Me and Wilbur became extra close too, he was like the older brother I never had. Niki was so sweet and one of my best friend’s, Tubbo was also extremely nice and we shared our love for bee’s. Me and the Dream team did a couple manhunts and they turned out well, my subscribers were going through the roof at this point. We  all felt like family.

One day while streaming with tommy, I made a bet that if I hit 200k subscribers on YouTube by the end of the month, I would do a face reveal.

“I bet you’ll hit it in like two days’ time”

“nah I don’t think I’ll get it this month, probably next month though”

But within the next week, I had hit the goal. I found out while streaming with Niki.

“oh you’ve got to be kidding me!” I said looking at the count.

“Yay ollie! I’m so proud of you!” Niki encouraged me.

“ugh but now I have to do a face reveal” I said pulling out the ugh.

The day of, I hit a new record. 90k viewers! Tommy was on vc with me and reacting with the rest of my fans. When the time came, I was extremely nervous, I didn’t really know what people were going to think of me.

I finally turned my camera on and sat there smiling, hoping for some type of positive reaction.

“DO A SPIN!” Tommy was beaming.

I spun around in my chair until I got dizzy.

Me and tommy were laughing for hours playing Minecraft with my face-cam on,

“DUDE YOUR HAIR IS SO LOOOOONNNGGG” he noticed as I was ending stream.

My brown hair went down past were the camera couldn’t see. We talked for a bit before going to bed, but just as I was leaving tommy said,

“I just wanna say, for an AMERICAN, you are pretty fun to talk to.”

I laughed so hard I fell out of my chair.

----woo another time skip woooo---

A couple weeks later, Wilbur and Niki were planning on going on a trip around the world for a couple months, when they asked if I could come, I raced down the hall to ask my parents. They had met everybody briefly once or twice and thought they were nice people. But they were still on edge.

“I don’t know, I mean these people are what 5 years older than you?”

“tommy and tubbo are 16, just like me.”

“are they coming?”

I hesitated.

“I’ll get some details and come back.” I raced back to my room and frantically asked,

“HELP WHOS COMING AND WHAT DO I SAY TO MY PARENTS”

“Niki, Me, Tubbo, Tommy, Sapnap, George, and Dream” Wilbur chimed in

“OKOKOKOKOKOK”

I ran back to my parents and told them all the details and everything,

“I’ll pay with my twitch revenue, and with the money I’ll get from the vlog’s I can buy you guys good presents, and I’ll keep up on school and stuff, and I’ll call you guys every day, and—"

“Me and your dad will have to talk about it, but we still don’t know. What if something happens to you?”

I went to my room, flustered.

***Me: Parents are “thinking about it” idk guys, maybe?***

I logged off and couldn’t sleep all night.

The next morning, texts were blowing up my phone

***Child: I SWEAR I WILL FLY MYSELF OVER TO WHEREEVER YOU ARE AND PICK YOU UP RN***

***Indie singer:  agreed***

I put down my phone and sulked.

I didn’t leave my room, or even stream the whole day. I was just thinking, these are the people who make me happy. These people are the light of my life. I understand I’ve known them almost two months, but its felt like a lifetime.

It was 11:00 at night when tommy facetimed me, he was obviously in a very public place. Tommy, it’s like 7:00 in the morning for you why are you awake so early. I knew Tommyinnit wakes up a 9 at earliest.

“im- getting something-from the store right now—just making sure your alive, you’re not answering any texts or calls?”

“sorry just mourning.”

“who died.”

“my love for my parents.”

“it’s taking my whole willpower to not laugh in the middle of this—store right now.”

I smiled for the first time in 2 days.

“I have to go, but I need you to do something really important.”

“ok what is it.”

“what time is it for you right now.”

“just about 11”

“ok at 1:00 pm tomorrow I want you to stream.”

“stream what?”

“just chat or something, trust me it’s important.”

And he hung up
