In Benja We Trust, In Bacca We Must.[Merome+Skylox]

1. Merome Musings

Jerome's POV

.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.

I had known Mitch since I was a kid. I've liked him more than a friend since the day we met. There's no doubt that I'm in love with him, but I have a feeling that it's not mutual. As much as our fans may ship Merome, myself included, I don't think it'll ever happen. I was torn out of my thoughts by hearing my phone go off.

"Hello?", I half-asked, half-answered.

"Hey, biggums! You haven't replied to Skype! Adam and Ty wanted to do Hunger Games over on the Nexus. Wanna play, Jerome?", he replied quickly.

"Sure, what time?", I asked, my interest growing. Any extra time with Mitch was a plus.

"Err, now?", he said.

"Are we recording?", I inquired.

"I have no idea. Lemme ask...", he laughed. I waited for a moment, hopping onto Minecraft as I waited.

"Ty's not in the mood, so I guess not.", he finally answered.

"That's fine. I'm joining the call by the way.", I said. He hung up.

"Hey Jereeeee!", Adam shouted the instant I joined.

"Hey Jerome.", Ty said quietly.

"Hey Sky, hey Ty.", I replied.

We began playing the Hunger Games, being constantly bombarded by fans.

Suddenly Mitch screamed, "JEROME, I HAVE HALF A HEART! HELP!". I sprinted over, and swung my iron axe at the Steve who dared attack us.

"I GOT YOU, G.", I screamed, causing my neighbors to stomp loudly upstairs.

'Tribute MeromeShipper has fallen.'

The name made me go quiet, thinking again about my crush on Mitch. Sky, Ty, and Mitch quickly noticed, but didn't say anything.

[Time-Skip]

"Well, I'm going to bed.", Adam said after losing. 7 times. Consecutively.

"Eh, I'm tired too. Night!", Ty replied.

It was just Mitch and I now.

"Hey, you've been pretty quiet tonight. What's up?", Mitch asked.

"N-nothing. It's nothing.", I said a bit too quickly.

"I don't believe you, Jerome. Are you upset about the whole Merome thing?", he asked concernedly.

"It's related. I'll talk to you later Mitch.", I said softly.

I hung up. What was I going to do?
