"Just more one video left and I'll go to sleep..." Timmy quietly mumbles to himself as he clicked yet another video, with bags visible under his tired-looking eyes, it is fairly obvious that he was watching videos in the middle of the night (It was now 2:34 am). He yawned and rubs his eyes, wondering why would he even watch someone's videos this late at night? It wasn't really his routine to watch someone else's videos all night, he'd rather edit his videos and respond to comments actually. But why is he watching TECNAlogyGeek, or rather, Tecna's videos? He wasn't really the type to watch 'Let's Plays' or Video Game reviews, he also does these kinds of videos, and he doesn't need to watch other people do it when he can easily do it himself. So why?
Is it because she has clever yet sarcastic humor to the point where it's entertaining? Is it because that not only does she do gaming videos, but she also does vlogs and internet challenges with her friends? Is it because even though she's in university and has barely any free time, she still puts up 3 videos weekly, when Timmy only posts once every week? Well, it just shows that she cares for her subscribers more than he does. But this is no competition, since Timmy himself admits that she's a better MagixTuber than he is. She also has more amount of subscribers, having 36+ million subs while he only has 34+ million, not that he's complaining or anything.
Or...is it because he's already attracted to her all of a sudden? He shook his head at that thought. No, girls like her isn't really his type, he doesn't even know why their fans 'ship them so hard'. Even if he is attracted at her, he knows she will never give him a chance. Mostly because, like Riven said, she's way out of his league. Plus, Riven had told him that she had major trust issues with men but the spiky-haired man refused to tell why.
He was currently watching her 'Draw my life' video, it was interesting. He did it once but since he sucked at drawing, he asked Helia to draw for him, and it was pretty good. Apparently, Tecna wasn't good at drawing either so she asked her friend Bloom to draw for her. Timmy had learned a lot about her, even if they didn't even talk to each other.
Timmy yawned and stretched his arms, it was now 2:46 am and he still has classes tomorrow, he closed his laptop and placed it on the side, along with his red-rimmed glasses, before laying down on his bed again and closing his eyes, trying to sleep. He might need it.
Meanwhile
"Ugh, Flora, what did I tell you about these stupid chain messages?" Layla asks the nature lover in annoyance as she deletes the chain message her friend recently sent her.
The Winx were currently hanging out in the common room in their dorm, since they have nothing else to do and they were too lazy for Stella's shopping sessions. Flora was reading an article about plants in her iPad that Stella gave her for Christmas, Musa was listening to her music in her headphones, with faint music coming out, she did this pretty often to the point where her friends are pretty much used to it by now, Stella was taking selfies from different poses, posting it on social websites, and saying the hashtags out loud, Bloom was looking at her phone with a horrified expression, since Stella pretty much flooded her notifications, Tecna was on her laptop, responding and reading comments from fans in her social media accounts, and lastly, Layla was watching viral videos in MagixTube but was interrupted when Flora had messaged her.
Flora had sheepishly hid behind her iPad and shook her head. "But Layla, it says that I will receive good luck if I sent it to my friends, and maybe you will, too."
Layla groaned and slapped her forehead at her friend's naive nature about the internet. "Flora, everyone knows it's FAKE. This is getting damn annoying, I swear if you send me this one more fuckin' time, I'll block you like Stella here with her selfies."
"You blocked me?!" Stella shrieked, gasping and stopping her selfie routine. "How dare you! No wonder I lost a friend on Facebook!"
Bloom curiously peered over her phone and to her friends, Layla blocked Stella? If she can do that, why not Bloom? She was so tempted to go to Stella's profile and blocking her, maybe reporting her account for spam. Stella may be her best friend since the third grade, but all these flooding is just driving her crazy. Should she do it? She thinks she should do it, Stella won't notice, would she? What if she does? Would she feel betrayed that her best friend had blocked her on Facebook and unfollowed her on Twitter and Tumblr? Hmm, maybe unsubscribe her on MagixTube too, since Bloom doesn't give a damn about Stella's beauty tutorials. It was so tempting for some reason, Bloom shook her head at this, no, she wasn't going to betray her best friend like this. Wait, yes. She's going to do it...ugh, this is too much pressure for her. But then again, YOLO. She sighs and tapped on the 'Block' button without any second thought, she so tired that she doesn't even care anymore.
The redhead exhales, wiping imaginary sweat from her forehead and leaned back at her seat, it took real courage to do that. Apparently, Musa had noticed her actions and took off her headphones, leaning into Bloom's ear to whisper something. "Hey, you blocked Stella, didn't you?"
Bloom was unsure if she should say yes, is Musa going to tell Stella about it? Well, she isn't really the type to do such thing, hell, she might have already blocked Stella. "Err, yes?"
"Oh, cool." Musa nodded at the redhead, before putting back her headphones and leaning back. "Me too, B. Me too."
Bloom sighed in relief, well, it was kind of expected. After all, Musa was the first one to complain about her blonde friend's selfie flooding.
"Um, Girls," Tecna called out, looking up from her laptop for the first time. "Do you think I should really play a game with this Timmy guy?"
"Ooh! Is he a hottie?" Stella asks, excitedly sitting next to her technology-loving friend and squealing. "By that name, I can already picture him as one of those dorky, yet adorable guys!"
"Don't you mean 'Adorkable'?" Musa raises a brow, Stella was always like this when a guy's name is mentioned.
"Hmm, yes!" Stella excitedly exclaimed, before turning to Tecna. "So, so, so? I want to know what the guy looks like! I want to know if you guys are compatible for each other! Ooh, what are your signs, wait! I know yours! But-"
"Stella!" Tecna exclaimed, her left eye twitching in annoyance. "I'm asking if I should play a video game with him! Not dating him!"
"Hmm, Timmy...you mean the famous MagixTuber?" Bloom joins in, seeing Tecna nod, she continued. "I've met him a couple of times, he's actually a distant relative of mine." She holds up her phone, revealing a picture of her and the ginger-haired boy.
Stella took her best friend's phone and examined the boy. "Hmm...he's kinda nerdy...but without those nerdy glasses and with more muscle, I can actually call him hot!"
"Stella," Tecna takes a deep breath and exhales, pinching the bridge of her nose in exasperation. Her friend was always this nosy, for some odd reason. "For the last time, I am NOT dating nor interested in this man! I'm just questioning if I should play a game with him in order to silence our so-called 'Shippers'!"
"You guys have shippers?" Musa questions, her eyes wide. Who knew a lot of people actually pair her best friend and her boyfriend's roommate? Well, they do look like a match. "What's your ship name?"
Tecna slapped her forehead. "Does that even matter?!"
"Yes. Yes it does." Musa rolled her eyes and brought out her phone, typing 'TECNAlogyGeek & TheTimister' into the search engine. And to her surprise there were a lot of results, A LOT. Fanarts, fanfictions, news, etc. And some of them were smutty and not to mention explicit. Musa shuddered at this and looked away from her phone in disgust. God, artists and their realistic drawings these days. No wonder why Tecna wants to end this. After avoiding all those 18+ content, she managed to see their ship name. "TxT, just that?" She raises a brow at her best friend, who shrugged. "I swear to god all these people know how to draw and write smutty shit but they don't even know how to come up with a clever ship name? A pathetic fanbase, that's for sure." Musa muttered to herself bitterly, before grinning at Tecna, who looked uncomfortable at her musical friend's creepy grin. "Hey Tec, you should have a different ship name, something like Timna? No? Err...ugh, this is hard."
"Musa, I don't think I need a ship name." Tecna muttered, trying to stop her best friend's attempt of thinking some silly ship name. "I need people to STOP shipping me with Timmy. Not coming up with some silly ship name that will likely make more people pair us together!"
"But I do see some...compatibility between you two." Flora spoke softly, looking at Timmy's MagixTube channel. "You both do practically the same thing, loves technology, and, umm...when's this Timmy guy's birthday?"
"After Valentine's." Musa answered, "February 15th to be exact."
"Hmm, so that makes him an Aquarius...and Tecna is a Sagittarius...so that means..."
"Flora, I am not attracted to him in any way so please stop that zodiac compatibility thing." Tecna tried as much as she can to politely decline. "Last time I checked; A Sagittarius like me isn't compatible with an Aquarius."
Flora frowned, "You don't know that. Who knows?"
"For the last time, I am NOT dating him." She was getting extremely annoyed. "And never will!"
"Never say never!" Stella teased, "Who knows? Maybe one day you'll say 'I do' to him and I'll be the maid of honor!" She squeals, already loving the idea of her friend getting married. "And then I'll say 'I told you so!' and then you will be like-"
Tecna groaned, this is why she rarely asks for her friends' opinions, especially Stella. "Stella, that will never happen."
"Fine!" Stella exclaims, pointing at Tecna with a smirk. "Let's have a bet; if you somehow ends up with this Timmy guy and you two will eventually get married and have adorable kids, I'll be the maid-of-honor, and I'll be the godmother of your kids!"
Tecna rolled her eyes and scoffed, like that's ever going to happen. "And if I don't?"
"Well..." Stella trailed off, thinking of something that might interest her friend. "Hmm, how about...I'm going to buy every video game and whatever that you want!" She held her hand out for her friend to shake. "Deal?"
She thought about it for a moment. Stella being her maid-of-honor and being the godmother of her kids if she's going to eventually get together with someone she barely knows? Pfft, like something like that will happen. So it's going to be an easy choice. She smirked, loving the idea of her friend buying her video games. She gladly shook her hand. "Deal." Once they shook their hands long enough, Tecna turned to her friends with a questionable expression. "So, should I do it?"
They looked confused for a moment. Do what? "Err, do what?" Musa questioned confusingly.
"Playing some sort of video game with Timmy, obviously." Tecna answered.
Before any of her other friends could answer, Stella nodded and starts jumping up and down for some reason. "Yes! That way, you two could get to know each other...and once you will, maybe you could change your mind on that 'Never dating him' thing?"
"Stella, I'm absolutely positive that I will never be attracted to him, nor he will be attracted to me." Tecna said firmly, crossing her arms.
"But you two are meant to be!" Stella protested, shaking Tecna by the shoulders violently. "I know a future couple when I see one! You two have a connected red string of fate!"
Musa scoffed, rolling her eyes. "Oh yeah? Just like how I got a blind date with someone I don't even know?"
"You never gave Jared a chance, that's why!"
"Ugh, not this again!" Layla groaned. "You two better stop this or I swear-"
"I'm going to email Timmy right now, now would you excuse me." Tecna excuses herself out of their common room and into her room. Shutting the door behind her, she sighs and sits on her bed. She opens her laptop and begins typing on it. But stops as she thinks about what Stella said. "Someone like me? Getting married? Having a relationship...? It's highly unlikely, who would love something like me?"
A/N: I honestly don't know what to say right now...? But I think I should say something since it's my routine to do so.
Any ship names for Tecna and Timmy? Being a huge shipper to a lot of ships, I honestly can't think of a clever one. Any ideas? No? Eh, I'll just stick to 'TxT' then.
Hmm, the red string of fate part...huh, it sounds like a good plot to be honest. Don't know the red string of fate? It basically goes like this:
The two people connected by the red thread are destined lovers, regardless of place, time, or circumstances. This magical cord may stretch or tangle, but never break. This myth is similar to the Western concept of soulmate or a destined flame.
So yeah, I'm basically giving you an idea here. I think I can write a story about this but does anyone else want to? You can take the idea and mold it into a story, I'm cool with it. Just tell me or something so that I can support your story if you want..? No? Well, okay.
Thanks for reading by the way and I hope you enjoyed it!
