His Masked Gamer (SMii7Y ff) {ON HOLD}

Chapter 9

The last 2 weeks I had more social interaction, online and face to face, than I'd had in a while. I'd hung out with Jordan a lot after my classes just doing stupid stuff and having movie marathons. He was a really good friend. When I wasn't with Jordan I was most likely recording or streaming with the usual group of boys and if I wasn't doing that I was working or editing with Smitty on a call. We had become close over the last 2 weeks and I was thankful for his company.

"Uhh he's to the left, to the left" I called out 

At the moment we were playing Rainbow six seige. I was quite new to the game but Smitty had been teaching me to play for the last 5 days. I was getting pretty good if I do say so myself. Today Smitty had decided not to tell me we were playing with new people and I almost freaked out when they joined discord.

"And that's the round boys" I cheered 

Tuxy had clutched it.

"So Cubby, What did you think of these two new men in your life" Smitty asked cheerfully 

"I hate you" I replied leaving the game 

"Why what's wrong with them Cubby?" John drawled 

"Nothing" I said quickly, "I just didn't know I was playing with you guys, Smitty didn't have the courtesy to tell me" 

"Must've slipped my mind" he said innocently 

"Fuck you Canada" I growled 

"Why is it so bad you didn't know" Jay laughed 

"So you see, I have terrible social anxiety" I answered, "and Smitty thought it would be funny to give me and anxiety attack but unfortunately for him it didn't work"

"I was surprised you kept it together" Smitty laughed 

"Yes after I muted myself for a bout five minutes trying to get my breathing under control" I cried 

The boys burst out laughing and I huffed 

"I'm glad you get pleasure out of my pain" I muttered 

The boys were still laughing and I stopped my recording

"Why don't I play by myself" I sighed, "I wouldn't get bullied if I did"

"Yes but then where would the content be" Tuxy laughed 

I thought about his point and a small smile grew on my face 

"That's a very fair point" I chuckled

"We knew you'd come around" John drawled 

"What is it with you and being so.... what's the word" I said 

"Patronising" Jay offered 

"I think that's the one" I laughed, "god I need to get good at English"

"Yeah you do, come on Cubby you're English" John said in his voice (pls tell me u know what voice I'm on about!!!)

"John stop that" I groaned 

"Stop what" he laughed 

"You know exactly what" I said 

"Okay I do, I'll stop" he laughed 

"How long have you guys known each other for?" Tuxy asked 

"About two weeks" Smitty replied 

"Yup" I confirmed 

"How come your okay with these two idiots then" Jay asked

"Well when I met Smitty I was too consumed by rage to be anxious" I said 

"Golf it does that to a person" Smitty laughed

"And when I met John I was too busy focusing on proving to him I was a good fortnite player to be anxious" I continued 

"So what about this game then, doesn't that distract you" Tuxy asked 

"Nope because I've only been playing this game for about 5 days" I chuckled 

"Only 5 days" Jay exclaimed 

"Yeah" I laughed, "why's that surprising?"

"Because you're actually decent" Jay informed me 

"She's only left the house for classes, apart from that she's been playing with me and John" Smitty laughed 

"Hey" I shouted, "don't be exposing my boring life Canada"

The boys began laughing and I huffed again

"Seriously what is it with guys and bullying me" I asked 

"You're the only girl and you're new to our group" John answered, "it's funny"

"Right I see" i said leaning back in my chair

"Speaking of classes Cubby" Smitty said, "Don't you have an early one tomorrow"

I furrowed my brows and looked at my timetable on my desk

"I do" I said confused, "9 am"

"Smitty how did you know that?" Jay asked 

"Yeah dude that's kinda creepy" John drawled lazily 

"I thought we were bullying Cubby" Smitty mumbled 

"Nah you have to answer this question dude" Tuxy laughed 

"Can I just say that I personally love your laugh Tuxy" I butted in 

He laughed again

"Thanks I guess" he said, "now Smit answer the question"

"I just gathered information to make sure I didn't call her in class" Smitty muttered, "can't have her getting in trouble"

The boys awwed and I blushed profusely

"How cute" John drawled 

"Okay okay, can we shut up now" Smitty snapped 

"I think I should go to bed" I muttered awkwardly

"Nooo come on Cubby" Jay whined

"I'll talk to you guys later" I said ignoring Jay

"London wa-" 

Smitty's voice was cut off by me leaving the call. I sighed and ran a hand through my hair. I picked up my phone and dialled a number before grabbing a bottle of raspberry vodka

"Hey Jordan" I said, "You down for a drink at mine"
