"I'm Brancliff, goodbye everyone." The video ends. I throw my phone onto my bed, squealing. His voice just makes me feel so fluffy inside. Even though he lives in the same city as I do, I've never seen him. Although, I hope that he lives in my city, as he's said it before in one of his videos... But I've never commented on one of his videos. But maybe I should, he reacts to pretty much every comment. Picking up my phone, I write a comment.

DaSaltyLoli [11:36 PM] : "Hi Bran-San!~ I've been watching your videos for a while, and I enjoy your content a lot 3 please keep it up :3"

I suddenly jerk awake because of my phone. The screen flashes, a YouTube notification. Brancliff replied! I stifle a scream of joy. It's 1AM. Luckily I graduated five months ago, and just moved out. I'd been doing side jobs, and began collected money when I realised how much I wanted to leave.

Brancliff [01:03 AM] : "Hehe, thank you! /
/head pat"
DaSaltyLoli [01:05 AM] : "Wait... You're older than me, and I look up to you, does that make you my senpai?!"
Brancliff [01:08 AM] : "It might ;)"
DaSaltyLoli [01:08 AM] : "It's settled then! Senpai it is!"

No reply. Ignoring a sting of disappointment, I sigh. But thanks to that, my phone falls on my face with a small "bam!" I rub my nose. Gosh that hurts. I then fall asleep after a few minutes. A few days go by with us talking a bit through the comments. Brancliff ended up giving me his Discord.

After showering first, I hop on Discord, and message Brancliff. I get a reply after waiting for a minute or two. We chit chat for a while. We start to talk. When our topic moves onto more personal subjects, I suggest we can meet up.

[SaltehLoli]: yoooo~ I just got an idea; wanna meet some time? we do live in the same city :3
[Brancliffo]: Sounds good. When?
[SaltehLoli]: what about now? hehe
[SaltehLoli]: lets go to the café? you know... the small, fancy one?
[Brancliffo]: NOW? ^^; I do know that café, but I have a life you know-
[SaltehLoli]: oh, shit sorry ;3; I forgot that you had a life, unlike me ~
[Brancliffo]: I'm kidding. I can play some PoGo while walking to that place. I live close to it anyway
[SaltehLoli]: im on my way~
[SaltehLoli]: thou shall be there in approximately 5 minutes!
[Brancliffo]: Make that 10, please. ;;

I close my laptop and look in the mirror. A happy face stares back. The glasses I wear make my eyes look a little bigger than they already are. But people have told me that it makes me cuter... so, I decided to abandon contacts and just wear glasses. Glasses are easier anyway. I squirm out of my PJ's, and grab some reasonable clothing. A skirt, thigh highs, a T-Shirt and sneakers. After doing so, my messy, black hair gets quickly brushed. I dash out of my house, but then realise that Bran would take a longer time to arrive. So I slow down and grab my ear buds. The music plays as I happily walk to the place where I've got to be.

Arriving at the café, I see Bran sitting. I stop dead in my tracks. I panic. Crap. Bran didn't notice me. Yet. Suddenly, beginning to feel nervous, I stray to his table. "Hi Senpai" I greet him. Bran looks up from his phone. Surprise flashes through his eyes. "You look.. More different than I thought."
"In a bad way?" I ask, and Bran grins. "Yes. a very bad way." And pats me on the head. "I'm kidding. You look cute." Beginning to blush, I get a chair, and sit next to Bran. As he sits down, I call a waiter. We both order a cup of tea, and a muffin. "So..." I start, not knowing what to say. Bran looks awkward too. Looking at his face, I begin to laugh. He looks at me. "Hey, Senpai. What's the difference between a joke, and three dicks?" He's cute. "The difference is that those three dicks are so small, that they put that joke to shame?" Bran begins to grin. "No, the difference is that I can't take a joke." We both begin to laugh. Now that the mood has been lifted, we both feel more comfortable. An hour flies by. Bran checks his phone. "Hey, Kay, do you want to visit my house? My family are going to go somewhere. They'll come back next month." He smiles again.

"Sure. Let's go." I mean, what can go wrong?

"Hooray!" After paying, Bran grabs my hand and pulls me with him to his home. A flush creeps up my cheeks. I've never really been interested in getting a boyfriend. Mainly because all the boys around me were morons.

After ten minutes of walking, and comfortable chatting, we reach his house. As he grabs his keys to unlock the door, I become nervous. Never have I ever been to a boy's home. What do I do? What happens when I become awkward? Or rather, when everything becomes awkward? Suddenly, I feel a finger flicking against my forehead. I yelp, and rub my forehead. "Wake up, sweet cheeks. Come in." I hear Bran chuckle. Flushing, I nod, and enter the house.

As Bran closes the door, I calm down a little. I follow Bran to the living room. "Want to play Elsword?" Bran's sudden voice scares me. "Sure! Tho, I haven't been able to really play lately, so I might be rusty."
"That's fine, I can teach you." He wiggles his eyebrows. Bran pulls a chair next to his chair for me, and gets a laptop. As I raise my eyebrow, questioning why he'd need that, while he already has two monitors. He shrugs. "Just in case. It's handy for in bed." I giggle. "For research?" Bran blinks a few times in surprise. And begins to blush, getting my reference. "Yeah. A lot of research."

We end up playing through the whole night. From 2V2 matches to spamming Henir dungeons. And before we know it, it's 5AM. Stifling a yawn, I look at Bran. He notices me, and chuckles. "Sleepy?" I nod. Stretching myself, I look at the time. I'm not looking forward to be alone again. Bran keeps looking at me, but looks away whenever I glance at him. Giggling, I grab one of his Kirby stuffed animals, and throw it at him. But to my sadness, he catches it. "It's pretty late-" Bran cuts himself off, and clears his throat. "It's pretty early now, what about you stay here and sleep?"
"You mean.. now?"
"Yes, now." That chuckle again. It's kind of cute...? I can feel my cheeks heat up. "I guess it wouldn't hurt to stay here until I am all rested up!" I smile. Bran smiles back. "Yeah. It wouldn't hurt to stay with a guy you don't even know for a month."
"I mean, I can sue you if you do anything indecent to me."
"Can you when you're tied up in my basement, though?" We both begin to laugh. "Let's get the stuff ready then." With a wink, Bran turns off his PC and walks to his bedroom. After I've turned off the laptop and put it away on the desk, I follow him.

We take a while to set everything up. But in the end, we somehow got two mattresses on the ground, next to each other. We try to high five, but I end up slapping Bran in the face. I giggle when I see him stifle a yawn while rubbing his cheek. Both Bran and I crawl into the mattresses. "Goodnight Bran."
"Sleep well." I smile, and close my eyes.

Yet, minutes pass, as I can't seem to fall asleep. Suddenly, about fifteen minutes later, I hear Bran. "Hey, you awake?" He whispers. "Yes. Why?" I answer. A long silence follows. "Nothing, goodnight, Monaka."
