A few months back you had been playing one of those socializing online games, trying to befriend people behind the screen as you played, trying to share interests, opinions, compliments, etc. when you started talking with a specific player called 'XxSinister_SolacexX.' They were a bit edgy at first, but you grew to somewhat enjoy their company and thought they were fun to play with. Then as you were about to go off, he asked for your Discord username. The request was slightly unsettling, but you decided as soon as you saw some red flags you'd just block them, so you gave them yours. Now with the added communication of Discord, you and the other player started to talk more, finding certain similarities and likings of each other. Over time you found out his name was Sebastian, and you two became online best friends. The more comfortable you got with each other, the more you two spoke of your lives. You guys would even jokingly flirt with each other in the cringiest/funniest ways possible. It was fun, and one day he mentioned where he lived, which actually wasn't far away. Then you expressed the idea of meeting up, and he agreed. So here you were, outside of a Hot Topic waiting for Sebastian. You have FaceTimed before, so you knew what you both looked like and should be able to spot each other out. As you waited, you suddenly felt a hand on your shoulder, making you quickly turn around to see who wanted your attention. "Boo! Didn't see me comin' huh? I'm glad to finally see you irl." It was Sebastian!
