~1~ "I'm in love with Babe Carano."
~After the End of the Game Shakers~
Dear friends, family, and colleagues of Gale J. Griffon,
Gale's life was definitely well-lived. He became a super successful rapper, a billionaire, and the main investor in the company the "Game Shakers." His death was very sudden and unexpected. His funeral will take place within the next week. Anyone's attendance will be appreciated.
~Jackie, previous lover of Double G.
"How is this even possible?!" Babe says, running into the main lobby. She was half in tears herself. She runs over to Kenzie whom was sitting on the couch, staring coldly into the distance. On the inside, Kenzie is just as shocked as Babe. But even if she's usually the one who overreacts first, today though...something is different. It's been happening ever since she found out who she really was. It's been happening ever since she figured out her purpose in life.
"Are you going to say anything?!" Babe yells. Tears streamed down her cheeks as she watches her friend sit in silence.
Kenzie simply shakes her head as her eyes moistened. She's had enough. Kenzie knows that this day is going to somehow make things worse for the rest of her life. Not only that, though, but this life-changing event, is only the beginning to the start of a shattered friendship.
~Before Episode 20-21, Revenge Tech Fest~
"Hey Kenzie! Hurry up and get ready! Tech Fest is going to start in three hours!" Babe jumps about. It's their first ever time going to Tech Fest as a company. She tugs at her best friend's arm, squealing with joy.
"Yes, I know, Babe. I'm busy fixing up the slight bugs in our game before we present it to everyone." Kenzie says as she scrolls through the many pages of code. She is honestly excited herself for the event. As Kenzie continues to fix up the bugs and graphics of the their new featured game, OctoPie, Babe grabs a stool nearby and sat beside Kenzie. Babe begins to lean her head onto her friend's shoulder, wrapping her arms around Kenzie's torso. "Are you done yet?"
Kenzie's face colours as she slightly twitches at the connection. Yes, are amazing friends, and yes, Kenzie is definitely used to this kind of behavior from Babe, but as time progresses, Kenzie feels herself getting closer to Babe, and not in the normal "friend" way. She always likes how Babe would balance out Kenzie's nerdy attitude with her cool, chill attitude. But ever since the two became closer, all Kenzie would think about is how Babe's hair would always fall gently in front of her face, and that bright, cheerful, signature smile Babe possesses. "Stop it, Kenzie!" She'd say to herself from time to time, "Why are you acting this way? This is nothing like yourself!" No matter how much she tried to get Babe out of her mind, the thoughts always came running back.
"Are you done yet?" Babe repeats when she finds Kenzie staring blankly at the computer screen. Kenzie's suddenly snapped back to reality.
"Hm? Oh, yeah. Soon. You can go get ready first." Kenzie replies quickly, wanting to take a quick break from this new sensation. Babe frowns at her friend's slightly-off behavior, but decides to shrug it off and not ask further questions.
"Okay then. Trip and Hudson will be coming soon, so you better get ready." Babe said as she walks away to prepare for Tech Fest.
"I...I will." Kenzie's voice trails off, and her eyes follows Babe as she walks away. For a moment, Kenzie was happy. But of course, happiness doesn't last very long as she begins to realize that she's been staring at Babe the entire time. "Shoot." She mutters silently. Kenzie feels waves of mixed up emotions in her, as the obvious truth hits her:
"I'm in love with Babe Carano."
A/N: Hi guys! Hopefully you like the first chapter to my first fic! This story will somewhat follow the storyline to the actual show, so if you're confused with anything, just check the timeline of the story, and refer back to it's original episode. The story would mainly be told in flashbacks, which would give a clear history of Kenzie and the Game Shakers. I know I've put a lot of mystery into the first chapter, but as time goes on, I'll reveal the lore to the story. Other than that, I'll try to update as soon I can, so feel free to leave me some feedback in the comments, and stay tuned for the second part!
