《Romance is Boring || Wilbur Soot x Reader》Chapter 9
Advertisement
*
An annoyed groan escaped my lips as I woke up to turn off the alarm. Who thought it would be a good idea to give alarms that kind of noise? That person must've been mental...
My thoughts got interrupted by the buzzing off my phone, someone was calling me. As I checked who was calling me at this time in the morning, I read the name 'Wilbur 🐳' and picked up, smilling.
"Hello?" I asked.
"Ah, good morning y/n. Did I wake you up?" he said sounding a little guilty.
"Nope, I've been awake for a few minutes. Don't worry. Is there a reason you're calling?"
"Okay good, I just wanted to ask if you'd like me to take you to school again today. I enjoyed the ride yesterday quite a lot." he asked.
It felt like my stomach was full of butterflies again and I was ready to throw them up because of all this happiness.
"Oh um...sure! Should I send you my address?" I replied nervous.
"That would be good since my stalking skills aren't that good yet, I sadly couldn't find your address..." he chuckled and I joined in.
" can teach you a lot, I recommend watching . Anyways, I have to get ready now. I'll send you the address." I said after stopping to laugh.
"I'll check it out in that case. I'll see you later then. Bye!" he said.
"See ya!"
And just like that, he hung up and I excitedly jumped around my room and did a little dance. Soon enough, realization hit...I have to get ready!
I quickly sent Wilbur my address and grabbed my clothes and rushed into the bathroom and started getting ready. I just took a quick shower, dried myself off and all that kind of stuff you do when you're in a bathroom. Well, except the stuff that couples do in the- alright I've gotta stop thinking about that.

I put the dress and my necklace on and put my hair into a ponytail. Then I walked back into my room and grabbed my backpack and the rest of my essentials and rushed downstairs.
My mom was about to say something but when she looked at me she just dropped her jaw a little bit and said "Wow, honey you look so beautiful.".
"Thanks mom! I thought that I should try something new." I replied.
"Does that mean I'm gonna see you like this more often now?" she grinned.
"I guess so." I chuckled and sat down across from her and started munching on my pancakes.
After finishing my breakfast and scrolling through my Twitter timeline, a car honked outside, which I assumed was Wilbur. A quick look out the window confirmed my assumption and I put my shoes and jacket on, grabbed my backpack and said goodbye to my mom.
(This is the complete outfit)
As I made my way out the house, I saw Wilbur bopping his head to the rythm of a song. Suddenly he swung his head in my direction and embarrassedly turned the volume of the music down, which made me giggle.
When I got in the car he greeted me with a big smile and a hug.
Wilbur Soot just hugged me...I'm going to shower again. I mean I-
My thoughts got interrupted by Wilbur telling me "I like the dress, it looks very cute on you".
I was blushing pretty badly so I just looked down at my hands and stuttered a quiet "T-Thanks...".
"Ready to go to hell?" he asked me.
"I think so..." I replied and he began driving.
We arrived at the parking lot and got greeted by Carson, Schlatt and Charlie as we got out the car.

"Thanks for the ride, by the way." I smiled at Wilbur.
"Oh, no problem! It's more fun to drive with you than all by myself." he smiled back.
Of course, Schlatt had to break the mood by bumping his elbow into my arm and whispering "Simp." into my ear. I hit his arm and told him to shut it.
As we all started walking towards the school building, I remembered something.
"Oh, Wilbur. I have something for you."
Everybody stopped in their paths and turned towards me and Wilbur.
"What is it?" he curiously asked whilst turning his head a little.
I reached into the pocket of my jacket and pulled out a dollar and handed it to him. He just looked at me, very confused and asked "What's this for?".
"Well, you said that you wanted to see real cash the next time you drive me somewhere, so there you go." I smirked.
"You know that was a joke, right? You don't actually have to give me money." he replied quickly.
"Oh come on. Use it for the next time you have to pump gas, please." I said whilst looking at him with puppy eyes.
"Ugh...fine! But this is the only time I'm accepting money. Now stop with the puppy eyes or I'll never talk to you again." he said as he shoved the dollar bill into his pocket.
I stopped doing the puppy eyes and replied with "Well someone's salty.".
Wilbur just rolled his eyes and we all continued to walk towards the school.
All of a sudden Schlatt jokingly yelled "Yooo Wilbur is rich now. He doesn't need to be a dirty crime boy anymore.", which resulted in us all laughing.
After that, school went on like every other day. Cassandra, Taylor and I hanging out during classes and in the halls. The boys being complete idiots during lunch and Ellie being...Ellie.
While Schlatt and I walked home, we talked about Minecraft and him wanting me to start streaming because he thinks that people would like me.
Maybe I'll give it a try...but before I could tell him my thoughts on it, he literally tripped over his own foot and almost face planted. Of course I died of laughter, but ended up helping him and checking if he was hurt, which he luckily wasn't.
When I arrived at my house and said goodbye to Jonathan, I watched a movie on Netflix, a few YouTube videos whilst eating snacks and went to bed afterwards.
: Yikes, this thing has been in my drafts since May and I'm only posting it now.

Wildcards: The Dread Captain
At the District One Invitational, a rookie eSports team defied all odds and reached the finals. Their underdog story and humble beginnings elevated them to worldwide acclaim.

Their prize was to become the first ever players in the most exclusive VR game yet, Abidden. The Paragons never celebrated that semi-final victory. They lost a friend in that match, who never appeared online again. Ten years later, the gaming landscape has changed and Abidden with it. Helena is the last remaining Paragon. Her team now consists of celebrities, influencers and musicians. Abidden has been reduced to a shadow of its former glory, but is the most streamed and viewed game in the world, despite having only a handful of players. None of this matters to James Sylvester. Finally out of hospital, things aren't good for James. He's found himself crippled with medical debt, his gaming licence has been revoked and he's permanently lost his place in society. He now spends his days competing in illegal slum arcades to manage the repayments. When a high-profile job comes along, James gets temporary backdoor access to his blacklisted gaming account. After reactivating it for the first time in ten years, James receives an invitation that could change his life forever.

8 126Gaming The System
Jack desperately wants someone to believe him. He is seeing blue boxes that seem to know everything about him. He reveals himself to his family and neighbors, only to learn that some things are better kept quiet. At least he isn't alone. His childhood best friend seems to have powers too. How far down does this rabbit hole go? This is my first attempt at writing. Expect the genre to wander. Currently on Hiatius.
8 117Tom Is Chill
An eye for an eye may make the whole world go blind but at least that f***er can't see either. The early bird gets the worm but I go to the grocery store so screw you. Technically humans don't need to breathe. If no one had any more children everyone would be dead in the next one hundred fifty years probably. Does this count as a synopsis? No? Okay. Tom murders a bunch of dudes. *Tom Dies*. Tom is reborn. Tom doesn't want to be reborn but no one really cares. Tom is born in a new world. He didn't really have to be though. Cause his old world had magic and all. I don't want to give anything away. I swear this fiction is more serious than I am I just find it hard to write a synopsis. Maybe I should write something like this. "Follow Earnheart Super Maximus on his gender-bender super adventures that are exciting and often humorous as he gathers a bunch of chicks for literally no reason." I mean that's what everyone else does and it seems to work.
8 91The Mischief of Rats

If we did that then we won't even have a roof to call it home!' ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- System Login detected. Serial number: 31052000.

The Admin said with genuine glee. " Eh? I thank you again, I guess?" " 50 Exchange points will be granted to Serial number: 31052000 for being very polite again!" Again, the Admin felt very happy.
