*Drama filled😩*

Everyone was gathered around the table, stuffing the breakfast, Niki gladly made, down their throats.

Wilbur wasn't hungry and decided to just stare at Cora the whole time. He felt a surge of guilt flow through him. He didn't mean to ditch her last night, he didn't mean to with the girl she's always doubting about.

And she was right, of course she was right. Niki tried to kiss Wilbur last night, but he awkwardly dodged it, apologized for the misunderstanding and didn't speak to her for the rest of the night.

Wilbur was very oblivious to girl's feelings and that obviously applied to Niki. He had no idea she liked him, they hadn't talked about ever getting together or having feelings each other. It was quite a big surprise to him. Even though he didn't kiss her, he felt awful.

When going to sleep last night, Cora and Wilbur barely spoke, which he hated more than anything. He basically death gripped Cora all night, scared she was going to disappear and simply slip out of his arms.

So here they are, everyone awkwardly sitting at the wooden table, complete silence except Tommy's small comments about the food, his dream or his vlog guns.

"So, what's the plan for today?" Niki asked, avoiding everyone's eye contact. Cora looked around at the dysfunctional group and sighed, finishing up her eggs.

"The people want a group stream. Let's do that. We'll do stupid stuff like truth or dare, jackbox, just something." Tommy suggested, Tubbo immediately agreeing with him. Niki nodded with the familiar smile on her face while Wilbur studied Cora's reaction, making everyone await for it aswell.

Cora noticed and ignored it, picking up her plate and setting it in the sink. "I don't care what we do. I don't even think I should be in it. I don't stream." Wilbur shook his head, picking his plate up as well. "You're going to be in it. You don't have a choice." He said while putting his plate on top of hers.

"If she doesn't wanna be in it, she doesn't have to be in it. Let's not force her." Niki suggested her opinion which only made Cora not want to be in it more. "No, she should be in it. She's here for a reason, and I'd like her to join us." Tubbo said, completely flipping Cora's mood. She had a huge soft spot for the brunette, but who doesn't?

"I honestly don't care. I'm in it and that's all that matters. Besides everyone knows you're with us. You tweeted on Wilbur's twitter." Tommy joked to bring a little light into the conversation.

"Alright fine, but only because Tubbo said he wanted me too." Tubbo smiled big and emptied his plate, going upstairs to shower. Tommy decided to go outside to 'explore nature' which made Cora severely concerned, but he went out before she could say anything.

"About the twitter thing." She finally made eye contact with Wilbur, he didn't care for the reason, he was just glad she was acknowledging her. "Dream texted, but it was actually Caoimhe. So I tweeted that I'm in love with her." Wilbur smiled at the girl. He wasn't in the slightest but mad. He wanted her to speak more, that's all he wanted, but she quieted

The awkward tension slowly started to break the surface with the three standing, silently.

Cora avoiding everyones eyes, Wilbur staring at Cora, and Niki gawking at Wilbur. It was a vicious cycle. Niki hated that Wilbur didn't notice her how she wanted.

"Hey Cora, could we chat for a minute?! I've been dying to talk to a girl about something." Wilbur's face paled while Cora plastered a fake smile on her face. "Sure." Niki grinned, shooing Wilbur away. He looked to Cora who wasn't looking at him back and waited to be acknowledged, but ended up sauntering up the stairs.

Niki grabbed Cora's clammy hand and brought her over to the sofa. "Alright so, you and Wilbur aren't dating, right? I know you mentioned you liked him, but you never said he liked you back, right?"

Cora felt like whatever she said, Niki would still express what she was about to say. So, Cora shook her head, eager but scared to know what she was bound to say.

"Okay good, because I would just feel absolutely awful, but since you aren't and he doesn't ." She looked around, smiling ear to ear, and leaned in. "He kissed me!! Last night, on the ferris wheel!" Niki, lied through her teeth.

Cora's blood ran cold and she could already feel prickling in her eyes. "Oh, did he?" She stuttered out, trying to show support for the guy she had deep feelings for and the girl she honestly really hated.

"Yes! It was so romantic. Right out of a movie."

Cora couldn't wrap her mind around this. Not even two days ago, Wilbur expressed he didn't like Niki in any way and now suddenly they kissed.

"Tubbo's smart. I'm going to take a shower." Cora said out of the blue, getting up from the couch, wanting to avoid this at all cost.

"Oh, alright. I didn't mess anything up rig-"

"No." Is all she said, walking up the stairs.

So much was going through her mind, and she just didn't want to be here anymore. Near Niki or Wilbur.

She quietly entered the bedroom, hearing the light water flow coming from the bathroom, informing her Wilbur got in the shower. She went to her suitcase and started to throw random shit in the box. She hated that she only had known Wilbur for a couple months and yet felt so strongly toward him. She felt like Kat Stratford in 10 Things I Hate About You, but without a hot Heat Ledger.

"What are you doing?"

Cora flipped around to see Wilbur, obviously not in the shower yet. Wilbur saw her reddened eyes and flustered face, immediately going closer to her and cupping her jaw. "What's wrong?" She had to come up with an excuse, fast.

She pushed him away from, she couldn't keep up with this dumb ass act. "Jared's sick. I have to go home."

Wilbur's face faultered. He knew this was a lie. He could tell by the way she never made eye contact with him. "Jared? No, bullshit. What's wrong?"

"Oh I'm lying? That's pretty bold of you."

"Why is it bold of me? What did Niki say?"

"Nothing I didn't already know. Now please, get out of my way." Cora pushed past him, but only to end up behind Wilbur again.

"What did she say?"

"Are you dumb? Nothing. I. Didn't. Already. Know. You need me to say it again?"

"Can you not be you for one fucking minute and tell me what she said."

"You know who's not me? Niki, and she's downstairs. Don't let me stop you." She let out a bitter laugh, finally pushing passed him.

"No, fuck. That's not what I meant. You can't just leave. You don't have a plane ticket. S-so you can't leave."

"Then I'll get one or I'll fucking swim."

He grabbed her wrist one more time, in a begging attempt. "Cora, just wait okay? Wait, please." His face was flustered and he was breathing quickly, looking as if he was having a panic attack.

Cora now felt bad, even though he was the one to fuck up. "I can't okay? Y-you." She stuttered, weakly pointing to him. "I'm leaving, okay? You have fun with Niki." She walked passed him, rushing down the stairs with her suitcase in hand.
