Willow POV

I let out a sigh of nervousness. It's finally time to come back.

3 weeks of absolute radio silence from me and the dream team now about to finally be broken.

"Are you sure you want to explain all of this, willow? I can do it, y'know" Jaxon says, giving a concerned look to his webcam

Me, Jaxon, Clay, George, and Sapnap were all on a call. Jaxon was in his streaming room in California, Clay was in his room with his camera off, and George and Sap were still in Canada but were using their phone to join the call.

"We're all here for you. And if it starts becoming too much, just let us know and one of us can take over" Clay reassured

"I'll be okay guys, I'm just a little anxious. Thanks" I smile before putting on my mask and glasses, Jaxon doing the same

"Is everyone ready?" I ask, hovering over the starting button

They all replied with a form of yes, so I finally click it

Skylitdreamer went live! we're we've been, and what happened.

My starting soon screen showed up to the thousands of people now joining the stream. The view count went up as more seconds passed. 2 minutes in, the starting song had ended, and I had a total of 300k viewers.

I take another deep breath before putting a black screen up, and then our faces.

"Hey everyone" I say nervously, trying my best not to glance at chat just yet

"Hi chat!" "Hey guys" "Hello" The rest of the group responds

"So uhm, we've been gone a while, as you know. We thought we might as well provide an explanation" I start

"And before they start saying anything, I want to say, that we do not y'all anything. This is our decision, and you should be thankful that we're even telling any of you this" Sapnap says sternly

"Yeah, and you shouldn't speculate any further from the information we give you. What we say is more than enough for you" Clay adds on

"Yeah, thanks guys" I take a small pause "Well, I guess we should get started"

"It all started the day that Jaxon was a leaving to go back to Cali. We were in the airport when suddenly, we got yelled at by the police. They grabbed Clay and put him in cuffs claiming that he had a weapon in his bag" I decide to just say everything as simply as I could

I sigh "They looked through his bag and there was a knife. A knife of which none of us put in there. They took him, George and Sap went with him to the police station. Me and Jaxon went back home since I was having major panic attack"

"Before you guys say anything and start accusing Clay of secretly having a knife, it wasn't him. Uhm, Clay, do you wanna explain what happened at the prison?" I ask, since he knew the story firsthand

"Yeah, sure" He responds "When I was at the prison, someone came in to visit with me. When I showed up, they started talking about how I should know who he is and how he did all of this for revenge. Long story short, someone from Twitter that I had made fun of on stream as a joke, had tracked down where we were, somehow placed a weapon into my bag, and then reported it to the police"

Silence fills the call. I think mostly because we were all reflecting on the insanity that we all had to go through, and also because we wanted to give the viewers some time to process it.

"Needless to say" George starts "That is not fucking okay. The fact that an anti tracked us down and pulled something like that is outrageous"

"It's one thing to not like a content creator, its another to vitally affect their lives. If that son of a b- if that hadn't unintentionally confessed then Dream would still be in jail" Jaxon adds on

"Twitter drama is a small thing to get over, that does not mean that you can fucking do shit like this. This experience is traumatizing. I was in a depression for 2 weeks, George and Sap have been stressed out of their minds and they're still dealing with all of this shit, Clay now has shit on his PERSONAL RECORDS of being arrested, Ranboo couldn't go back home because I physically couldn't take care of myself . You're not just making fun of some streamers, you are ruining innocent fucking lives" I say, starting to tear up

We all go silent again as I try to take some deep breaths to prevent from sobbing. A notification catches my eye to see that people ate messaging me on Discord

youre doing so well, love

you got this

i love you so much

youre alright mate, im so proud of you

love u, wil

dont worry mate you got this, youre doing amazing

we're all here for you

You're strong, Willow. Don't be afraid

I smile underneath my mask and turn back to my webcam

"With that being said, we're okay. Maybe not the best mentally just yet, but we're all home.. almost"

Sapnap chuckles "Me and George are coming back home in about two days. Other than us, everyone is home"

"I uhm, I guess that begs the question on our return. Personally, I will be coming back to streaming tomorrow! I'll be playing Night In The Woods. After that, I'll be having my 18th birthday stream on the 28th. Which, if you didn't know, is in 4 days"

"I might do a small stream tonight. Probably no mic Minecraft" Clay says

"We can't stream till we get back home" George states

"Ja- I mean, Ranboo? Are you streaming? Holy shit I almost just leaked your name" I mutter the last part

"You can say it" Jaxon says with a smile in his voice

"What? You want me to do your name reveal?" I laugh

"Well I did yours"

"Ok then, Jaxon" I pull the mic closer to my face "That's Jaxon with a 'X'"

"Jaxon with a 'X' will be streaming Sims in 2 days. And after that, I'll be on Willow's birthday stream"

"Is there anything else you guys wanna say?" I ask

"I kinda wanna apologize for the content I was putting out during all of this. I was trying to use it as a distraction from everything and I'm sorry it was so bad" Jaxon apologizes

"Don't blame yourself, Jax. You were doing the best you could and I'm sure all the boobers understand" I try to reassure him

"That being said, I think that's gonna be the stream for today. I love you guys, I missed you, and I can't wait to start creating quality content for all of you again. Hope you're all doing well" I say, glancing at chat

"Bye guys, I love you!!" Clay says

"Byeee!!" George waves his hands aggressively as Sapnap gives a simple wave

"Bye bye everyone" Jaxon says

I hit the end stream button before taking another sigh

Well this is one hell of a comeback..
