And We're Live

Summary:

Jared is a gaming Youtuber who does livestreams to hang out with his subscribers. When they're accidentally introduced to Evan, the livestream chat won't shut up about how they think Jared's in love with him. Which he's not. Totally, definitely not.

Chapter Text

“Guys. Guys!” Jared yelled into his camera. “I’m not shaving my head on a livestream.” He shook his head as his eyes skimmed over the chat. “I’m not doing it. No, I’m not bleaching it either.”

He heard a door open and close meaning his roommate was awake. Probably due to the yelling. He refocused. “When are you playing more animal crossing? Um, I’ll probably film it tomorrow. Play slender? Dude are you watching this from 2013 what the hell? No.” He read more comments as they came in.

Pussy

Omg PLEASE play slenderrrrrr

Play the spongebob version

Dye ur hair purple!!!

HE SHOULD PLAY THE SHREK VERSION!

Jared was sitting at the kitchen table, his camera, mic, and computer were spread out around him. He usually did streams from his room but since the two bedrooms in his apartment shared one very thin wall and his roommate was sleeping, he decided to be a gentleman and move to the kitchen. It was weird filming out there. He was usually in the comfort of his room. In his desk chair or on his bed. Although, he was quickly realizing the kitchen had better lighting and honestly, a stronger wifi connection.

“When’s the next episode of Minecraft adventures coming out?” He read from the chat. “I don’t fuckin know honestly. I haven’t been motivated to play. Y’all tweet me some games to play later. I need new shit.” He read a few more comments that he chose to ignore.

Slender!!!

Wait r u actually gay or is ur handle a joke

I don’t like the Minecraft ones they’re boring

“Who’s the hot shirtless guy behind you?” He read. Said shirtless guy jumped and quickly stepped out of frame. Jared laughed. “That would be my roommate Evan. He just got up. Evan come say hi to the stream.”

“No.” Evan moved to the other side of the table with his bowl of cereal.

“So you’re just gonna sit there out of frame and watch me while you eat?”

Evan shrugged. “You’re the one streaming in the kitchen.”

“Touche.” Jared returned his attention to the chat which was now going wild with comments about Evan’s level of hotness and a few comments about what “roommates” meant that made Jared blush.

IS EVAN SINGLE????

Yooooooo hot ass roommate alert

Damn jared how do u function living with him

Jared’s a disaster gay we already know he’s probably drooling over evan constantly

WHAT’S HE SO HOT FOR THO

Wait so Jared is actually gay???

Yeah they’re ‘roommates’ suuuuuure jared

I’m a lesbian but damn

I’m straight so jared please tell evn my number is 123….

“Alright you weirdos! Stop discussing the hotness of my roommate. He didn’t know you could see him so that’s pervy on your part. Leave him alone.”

Evan’s face turned bright red and Jared grinned.

“And to answer the other question, yes I’m actually gay. What straight man would have a youtube channel called gamergay?”

Evan laughed quietly.

“Bring Evan on the stream consensually.” Jared read. He looked up. Evan shook his head rapidly. “Sorry folks. That’s a hard no.”

 

“Can you at least give me a heads up next time?” Evan said as soon as Jared ended the stream.

“Dude, I was staring at a camera and talking at full volume. What other clues did you need?”

Evan just glared at him.

“Everyone loves you. They want you to be on the next one. Though they probably want you to be shirtless also. Which I wouldn’t recommend or I might get banned. But I’m sure even if you were fully clothed they’d be happy to see you.”

“Too bad for them.” Evan turned the faucet on and started washing his bowl.

“Come on, I’d get so many views.” Jared leaned against the counter and did a puppy dog face that Evan didn’t see.

“Not happening.” He set the bowl on the counter and moved on to the spoon. “You know I can’t like… talk in front of people.” He was now washing one of Jared’s cups.

“Yeah but it’s not really in front of people. It’s a camera. You can’t see any of them.”

“Still.”

Jared groaned. “Fine. Tank my career.”

“That’s a bit dramatic.”

Jared stuck his tongue out instead of responding.
