[Real Life]
SAME DAY
After everything that day on Instagram, I couldn't help feeling bad. I just wanted to spend my day off being with Addilyn and Brendon, but instead, I spent it crying into my pillow.
I rarely did this anymore, but I had posted that picture in the morning from my night out with Brendon last night. Then that one person wrote out that nasty comment, which ruined my entire day. Immediately my friends came to my defense, but not before I could take it to heart.
Addilyn immediately came to my rescue, bringing ice cream, movies, and a shoulder to cry on. She didn't judge me for how I was acting as I'd do the same thing for her if the roles were reversed. I didn't want to leave my pajamas, or my room for that matter. We stayed on my bed until I fell asleep for a little while. She ventured out into the living room so she wouldn't accidentally wake me.
Once I woke up, I looked at the time to see it was nearly one. Since I'm lazy, I texted her saying that we should get pizza, and she came back into my room after she ordered it. We were sat there talking until we heard a faint knock on my door.
"I'll go get it. You just stay here and chill," she told me, standing up and leaving my room, closing the door behind her.
I sat up in my bed and put my hair into a messy bun. I really didn't give a crap about my appearance today, as it would just be Addilyn and I.
As soon as I heard of what happened on Instagram, I wanted to go to Cam's apartment to help her in any way, but I have made previous arrangements to be on set in the morning that I couldn't cancel. I hoped Addilyn would be with her, so at least she wasn't alone.
I knew how hate comments could affect people, having received a few of them myself. But it was always different when it included another person and including stuff about death, even if it's not a death threat.

As soon as I had finished (early as well. He could tell I had other things on my mind), I ran out of there and drove to a flower shop. I had been thinking about getting her some all morning, and had decided on pink roses. I knew from somewhere that those were her favorite flowers, and hoped that they would make her feel better.
When I knocked on her door at a quarter to one, I wasn't sure what I expected. Addilyn answered the door, and let me in immediately.
"How is she?" I asked, as soon as I was inside.
"Well, about as well as to be expected. She hasn't left her bed very much. If you want to go see her, she's in there," she told me, pointing to a closed door to my left. "I'll put the flowers in a vase before I leave, if you want. I have to go pick up the pizza we ordered, you're more than welcome to stay though. And make sure you cheer her up."
"Thank you, Addilyn. And I will try," I told her and gave her the flowers.
"No problem Brendon," she told me and retreated to the kitchen. I went to what I'm assuming is Cam's bedroom door and knocked before speaking.
"Hey beautiful, it's me. Can I come in?"
"Yeah," I heard her say, almost whispering it. I cautiously opened the door and went in, closing it behind me as well. "Hey Bren, how are you doing?"
"I think the more important question is how are you doing?" I asked her, sitting on the very edge of her bed. She was still in her pajamas as Addilyn said she would. She also had her hair up in a messy bun and what looked like mascara running down her face, as if she had been getting ready for the day when all this went down.
"I've been better. I can't really say anything though, celebrities get this all the time. I should be used to it now, right?" She asked me, her voice breaking slightly. I wanted to pull her into a hug and never let her go, but stayed where I was instead.

"You should never have to get used to someone saying any of that stuff, ok? It is not ok for someone to say what they did and Instagram has already terminated their account, and won't let them get another one."
"I can handle if it's just me fine Brendon, it's the fact that they brought you and Sarah into it that pissed me off! You guys don't deserve that, sure what she did was a terrible thing, but she doesn't deserve it, and neither do you!" She yelled, before breaking down in tears. I immediately moved and pulled her into a hug, wrapping my arms around her tightly. Her arms snaked up around me, and we stayed like that for a while. I couldn't care less that she was getting my white shirt wet and dirty with mascara, all I cared about was her well-being.
After all, I could always get a new shirt, but I could never get a new Camari.
"As much as you think they didn't have a right to bring us into it, which they didn't but that's not my point, they also didn't need to say all that shit when all you did was post a picture where you thought you looked good. What they said was completely untrue and major bullshit.
"You are the most amazing person I have ever met, and I'm not lying to make you feel better. You truly are beautiful, and amazing, and all around perfect. I hope you know that I rarely lie, beautiful, and this isn't one of those times," I tell her, still holding her. By this time I've pulled her in so close to me, she's practically sitting in my lap. I keep her there as she continues crying, and I'll keep her there for as long as she'll let me.
Eventually, she pulled away, wiping her eyes.
"I'm sorry Bren, I don't know what came over me, I usually don't cry in front of people."
"It's totally alright beautiful. I brought you flowers, they're in the kitchen," I tell her.
"Thank you, Bren. You didn't have to come today, by the way," she said, shifting so she was facing me.
"I know, but I wanted to. I needed to make sure that you were ok. I also have a question for you, but some of the readers might think it's an inappropriate time to ask you, considering all that you've been through today."
"And that question is?" She asked me. I took a second to configure my thoughts before speaking.
"Would you like to be my girlfriend? I know we've only been on two dates, but-" I started, but she cut me off with a kiss. It took a second, but I kissed her back. It was deepened for a few seconds until I pulled away. "So I take that as a yes?"
She rolled her eyes at me before speaking. "Of course, Bren. I would love to be your girlfriend," she said, smiling for the first time today.
"Great," I told her before kissing her again. We both pulled away when we heard her bedroom door open.
"Aw cone on Urie! I told you to cheer her up, not make freaking mouth babies with him!" I put up my hands in defense.
"In my defense, you never told me how I had to cheer her up, and she looks pretty cheered up to me," I said, waving my hands to act like I was presenting her face.
"Well that's because you're really good at that," she said, looking at me.
"Aww come on guys! I don't need to know how good he is at kissing! Stop talking about it!" Addison yelled.
"That's not what I was talking about! I was talking about how good he is at asking girls out!" Cam yelled, laughing. I watched as Addilyn's jaw dropped, and she shook her head, like she was trying to wake herself up from a dream.
"What do you mean by that?"
"I mean that Brendon, my boyfriend, is really good at asking me out and stuff," she said, putting the ephasis on the word 'boyfriend'. Addilyn's eyes got really wide once she realized.
"Ok, what the shit happened while I was gone?!?"

Arduous New World
Alright, so I'm using this as a whetstone to practice my fiction writing. I have dyslexia, so bear with me if I have any mistakes, if you point them out I'll try and correct them. The story is LitRPG, I'll try and avoid some of the tropes, see FAQ. What happens is that the world turns out to be a simulation coming to an end, and beginning on its new simulation, in this process the system of the universe declares that the new simulation will be rpg-based. The protagonist however is thrust into an empty space before the simulation comes to an end, he escapes and finds that the world as he knew it is gone.Chapters will come sporadically as I'm quite busy IRL. FAQ1: There will be no Harem. 2: If any sexual content, it will be be below the screen, example sentence [they made love - or - they had sex]3: I'll try to keep character motivations steady instead of having characters who says and does one thing in one chapter, only to change their mind in the next one. 3: Villains or "bad guys" won't be charicatures. Of course, as in real life, you can meet these people, but as far as big bads or antagonists goes, they will have some modicum of intelligence. 4: The MC does not have an encyclopedia of random knowledge. 5: OP'ness won't happen overnight, and it is something that I'm wary of in terms of adding it, of course eventually the MC will grow more powerful, but there won't be any cheats, except hard work; and the luck factor will be more or less similar to the rest of the population. 6: He won't be opposing the universe, no matter how powerful he grows, he is too insignificant7: he won't become friends with god/the ghost in the shell etc, no matter how powerful he grows, he is too insignificant, and an ancient simulation ai has no interest anyway, why would it ? Okay that's that for now.
