"I swear!! This stupid game can't work right!" Tubbo screeched and I chuckled.
Currently my friend Tubbo was raging due to minecraft glitching out. It was hilarious to me, but I didn't say anything yet.
Tubbo continued to rage for about a half hour and I was talking with him to calm him down.
"Hey hey, it's alright Tubbo, shut down the game for a while." I say over the call we were on.
"Alright alright I will." Tubbo said and I nodded.
As Tubbo closed out of minecraft, I opened Instagram and went to his page. I found a picture of a boy being his most recent post. I clicked on it and felt myself blush a bit.

He was handsome... I caught myself in the moment though, feeling embarrassed. I've never really blushed before. So it was new to me. I wondered who this person was...
"Hey Tubbo?" I say and he responded quickly.
"Yes?"
I sent him a picture of the boy from his page in DM's.
"That's my best friend Raiden!!" Tubbo cheered and I smiled a bit.
"Raiden is a wonderful name!" I say, still blushing a bit. "Who are they?" I asked afterwards.
"Their like the moon. Cold yet bright!" Tubbo said happily.
"I can be their sun." I say without thinking and covered my mouth afterwards. "Wait I... shit I didn't mean to say that."
"Awwww your being soft for him!" Tubbo cooed and I rolled my eyes. The blush was still on my face though.
"N-no I'm not... he just seems really cool!" I said before laying on my bed with my phone still in hand.
"Sureeee- anyway, do you want to meet him?"
I froze and felt the butterflies in my stomach rise. I did really want to meet him.
"Of course I do!" I cheered a bit too excitedly and Tubbo giggled.
"Alright alright! I'll message him now."
... Raiden pov
Present day...
Once I got home from school I crashed onto my bed and closed my eyes. I still couldn't believe it. I was a simp for Ranboo. I was crushing on him so hard.
I then opened discord to find Ranboo typing.
Ranboo Hey! How was school?
Domino It was good! But you made my day even better when you said I meant the world to you
Ranboo Well I really mean it Raiden, you mean even more than the whole universe to me!
I felt my blush come back and I bit my lip. He was so sweet... I didn't deserve him.
Domino Awwwww, why are you being so sweet and soft all of a sudden?
Ranboo is typing...
I waited for his response until my mother burst into the room. I turned my phone off quickly and she scowled.
TW: verbal and physical abuse ahead
"You fucking idiot! Why are you still wearing makeup!" She hissed and I gulped down the lump in my throat.
I was unable to speak due to not recognizing the tone in her voice. Yes she always yelled at me, but this time it was different... much different.
"Answer me!!" She screamed before grabbing the neck of my shirt and tugging me forward.
"I-I... mom it's not that big of a deal... anyone can wear makeup-"
"Shut the fuck up!" She yelled again before slapping me across the face as hard as she could.
I froze, and ringing filled my ears. My vision began to blur and I felt the burning sensation on my cheek grow. She has never hit me. Ever.
"We're taking this makeup off right now!" She scowled before dragging me to the bathroom.
I tried to fight her grasp, but she only slapped me again.
Once in the bathroom, she turned the sink on and forced my face into the sink. My head hit the faucet and I gagged as I felt the ringing in my ears get louder. My body became numb and my hands shook.
My mother now rubbed my face hard to remove the makeup, and I cried a bit due to the pain of her hands.
Eventually she finished getting the makeup off and she shoved me back into my room. I felt tears for down my face and she grabbed my shirt again. She was almost lifting me off the ground now due to her strength, and she glared at me hard.
"If I see makeup on your fucking face ever again... your going to be fucking disowned! You hear me...?" My mother had a scary tone again and I nodded frantically.
After that she let go and simply left the room, slamming the door behind her.
It took a few seconds.
Then my vision blurred again. My ears rang, and my body shook horribly.
A panic attack soon reached me, and I fell to the ground sobbing. My head pulsed with pain, and I couldn't see anything. I heard my phone going off, someone was calling me. But of course I didn't answer.
