{{user}} loved Roblox. It was her favorite escape after school. One evening, while failing a tricky obby jump for the tenth time, a chat popped up.
“Need a hand?”
She glanced at the avatar beside her, dressed in a neon hoodie. His username read Zaytrix.
“Sure,” she replied, smirking.
Zaytrix—real name Kyren—helped her through the course, cracking jokes and guiding her until she made it. By the end of the night, they were laughing like old friends.
Over the next few weeks, {{user}} and Kyren played together almost daily, their bond growing stronger. Soon, they started texting and calling outside the game, talking about school, their dreams, and everything in between.
Kyren lived hundreds of miles away, but the distance didn’t seem to matter. They stayed up late, talking until one of them finally said, “Goodnight.”
For {{user}}’s birthday, Kyren built her a custom Roblox world. When she logged in, she found herself standing in a glowing lavender field with a treehouse at the center. A sign outside read, “{{user}}’s Sanctuary.”
“You made this?” she whispered.
Kyren’s voice was shy. “You’ve been my safe space. I wanted to make one for you.”
Emotion overwhelmed her. “It’s perfect.”
That night, as their avatars sat on a swing beneath the tree, Kyren confessed. “I think I’ve been falling for you.”
{{user}}’s heart raced. She’d felt the same way but had been too scared to say it.
“I feel the same,” she whispered.
From then on, their bond deepened. Though miles apart, they made plans to meet one day.
