So this idea came to me a couple days ago and I decided to write it down
PLEASE NOTE: most of the messaging between Matt and Gil is on Instagram direct messaging. For those of you who have IG you know about the new update but for those of you who don't I shall explain: On Instagram you can now send pictures to specific people you're following and only they can see it. You can also message each other.
Enjoy~
G_Beilschmidt: I did not expect u to look like that
I received the direct message when I posted my first 'selfie'. I had never posted one before because I made that account to post pictures of views and to show off my photography skills. I called myself 'KumaKamera', a pun on my dog's name. I never planned to post any pictures of myself but one day I gave in and did it. That's when he massaged me.
I stared at the message from 'G_Beilschmidt'. I was used to getting messages from my followers, I mean, I was famous on Instagram so I was always getting messages from my followers telling me how nice my pictures were. I never replied, though. But, this message caught my eye. Not because of the words, because of the picture above it.
The man in the picture had red eyes. Something about those eyes made me want to reply to him so badly. I was about to but then I stopped myself. I never, ever reply to people. Oh, but I wanted to. I contemplated whether to hit the send button or not. I finally decided that I should do a little stalking first.
I tapped my finger on 'G_Beilschmidt' and his profile popped up:
Germany/24/Single/Awesome
I hmphed as I read it. It really bugged me when people had things like that on their profiles. I didn't even have anything on mine. I didn't care. I just wanted to post scenic pictures.
I scrolled down his account more. He had many photos of him out partying with his friends. He seemed harmless. I came to the conclusion that I would message him back:
G_Beilscmidt: I did not expect u to look like that
KumaKamera: What did u thing i would look like
G_Beilscmidt: a girl
G_Beilscmidt: well u look like a girl but i though you would actually be a chick. not a guy
KumaKamera: excuse me?
G_Beilscmidt: hahaha sorry man. its just cuz posting scenic shit is kinda a girly thing to do
KumaKamera: your rude. you dont even know me and you tell me i look like a girl
G_Beilscmidt: welcome to the internet kid
KumaKamera: do i actually look like a girl?
G_Beilscmidt: ya but your cute so its k
I was a bit taken aback by his answer. I didn't know what to say so I ended up changing the subject
KumaKamera: ur eyes are cool
G_Beilscmidt: thanks. im an albino so i have red eyes. yours are cool too. they look purple
KumaKamera: thanks that's just because of the light though. they're blue in normal lighting
G_Beilscmidt: do you believe in love at first sight?
KumaKamera: um, what?
G_Beilscmidt: answer me
KumaKamera: not really. plus Romeo and Juliet fell in love at first sight and look how they ended up
G_Beilscmidt: lol dude
KumaKamera: why would you ask something absurd like that
G_Beilscmidt: hahaha no reason. youre pretty fun
KumaKamera: thanks
G_Beilscmidt: can i message you again some time?
iKumaKamera: guess. i don't normally reply to these things
G_Beilscmidt: why'd you reply to me?
KumaKamera: cuz of your eyes
G_Beilscmidt: love at first siiiiiight~
I ended the conversation there. The next day he sent me another picture. This time it was just of his eyes.
G_Beilscmidt: what's your name?
KumaKamera: i dont reveal my name online
G_Beilscmidt: thats annoying
KumaKamera: you're annoying

Messaging Gilbert soon became a daily occurence. I found myself becoming excited to message him and talk to him. He told me lot's of things about himself. I learned about his brother, his home town and 'The Bad Touch Trio' (that was... interesting). Still, he didn't know anything about me. Until, one day, this happened:
KumaKamera: My name is Matthew Williams. I'm 22 years old. I live in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada. I work in the Vancouver Art Gallery. I'm gay and single. My cell number is: ***-***-****
G_Beilscmidt: holy shit i fucking love you
iMessage: hey it's Gil
hi
iMessage: i knew you'd finally tell me stuff
consider yourself lucky
iMessage: guess what
i dunno. tell me
iMessage: I was gonna tell u this a while ago but i wanted to surprise you
ok
iMessage: guess who's coming to Vancouver, Canada...!
holy shit
iMessage: yup, and guess who's gonna pick me up from the air port...
i swear to god if don't have red eyes in real life ill leave u in the airport to die
iMessage: SO YOULL DO IT!?
whatever...
iMessage: yay birdie ur da best!
ya i know
Matthew Williams was standing in the Vancouver airport. His heart was beating and his hands were sweating. He fixed his hair one more time. Wait... why was he doing this? Gilbert probably isn't really... Gilbert! For all Matthew knows, this could have been a prank. He might have wasted two hours driving from his home in Whistler to Vancouver. People started to file out of the airplane. Matthew tried to look for a man with white hair but he couldn't see over the tall man in front of him.
"Birdie!"
Matthew turned around to see red eyes staring at him. Then suddenly, he was pulled into a long-awaited kiss.
"Do you believe in love at first sight, birdie?"
"Well, Gilbert, I guess we're gonna end up dead" Matthew said before Gilbert pulled him into a deeper kiss.
ok wtf did i just write!?
remember, guys! things like this dont happen in real life. Matt was just lucky... reeeaaaallllyyyyy lucky
please review~
