A/N: Hello there, this is my first fanfiction and I wanted to do something a little different. I am quite new to this and am still learning, so please bear with me. I hope you enjoy the upcoming crazy ride with the guys.
A tinge of insanity, a handful of vulgarity and obscenity, a pinch of insults, and of course, a mother lode of explosions. A perfect amalgamation to produce a night of recorded laughter and fun among friends on a Saturday night.
"FUCK YOU, FUCK YOU GUYS!" H2ODelirious yelled out through his infamous laughter with zero hint of any resentment, despite his chosen words. They, the rest of the Banana Bus Squad, had caught sight of him setting up a trap of C4s at an entryway to another Gmod Deathrun. He was wondering what was taking them long to run through so he could detonate, but they had been all aiming at him with rockets. Just as he turned around, shots were fired and his laughter filled the air, or rather just their headphones. Just like always, their laughs followed Delirious' soon after.
"Damn, I think I'm good for the night boys. How about you guys?" MiniLadd inquired after they had crashed the game for the 3rd time with their antics. A tired chorus all agreed and exited the game. Just before they were going to bid farewell and goodnights, Delirious sounded rather quieter, a contrast of his YouTube personality. "Hey guys, can you wait up a second?"
"Yeah, what's up Delirious?" asked Evan, more worried than curious at their friend's change of tone. Vanoss knew he was of a shy nature naturally and when he got that way after playing, it usually forebode a more serious topic that he felt nervous to address.
"Just shoot man," BasicallyIDoWrk, Marcel, piped as Nogla said sincerely, "We're listenin'."
Delirious looked down at his desk in the dark room, his clenched fingers slightly shaking on his lap. "You guys..wanna hang out sometime?" A pause filled the chat room. Every single one of them awaited this very moment. ..The moment Delirious would reveal to them who he really was, bestowing them more trust than the normal online friends. They would be friends in real life.. and more importantly, they would be whole. However, everyone silently agreed that they would never push him to, knowing how he felt on the matter. The guys may be dicks to each other in-game, but outside that world, it was different.
Tyler had recovered first and attempted a normal, Wildcat-like response, "Yeah..? Like off camera gaming, I'm down." Terroriser nodded, eyeing the rest of the guys on how they were feeling about the offer. "Yeah, we're always here for some fun, recorded or not.."
Delirious could tell they were all thinking how to approach the subject, skirting around in case he hadn't meant what they were hoping for. "Fuck, I.. I wouldn't do that to you guys. I'm..serious this time.." He sighed and dared to glance at his screen where all of his friends, except for Cartoonz, had their video chat on. His eyes went straight to Evan's, almost feeling like he was looking straight at him. The hope and excitement was growing on everyone's face as the reality was hitting them, but he could only watch Vanoss.
He was a closer friend, seeing his true personality through his online persona quicker than the rest had. It wasn't a surprise that he worried most about his reaction. Luke quietly squeezed Delirious' shoulder. He smiled a little at the support.
"..For real?" Evan finally spoke his mind. Delirious nodded, quietly laughing at himself that after a few minutes of offering to see him, it was already getting to his head that they could already. He grinned full then, knowing that if he could feel this comfortable and make a small mistake after playing with them for years, this wasn't going to be as hard as he thought. ..With the meeting part at least. He shook off the gradually growing anxiety to at least be able to grant his friends something they have been dying to hear for forever.
"For real."
