Favourite Athlete — Reupload

Summary:

"Break my heart, and I swear I'm movin' on—
With your favorite athlete"
-Good Graces by Sabrina Carpenter

Wemmbu didn’t think it would be him.
Not Lomedy.
Not the boy he was told not to worry about.

But in the end, that’s exactly who Flame Frags chose—leaving Wemmbu with the quiet kind of heartbreak that lingers in everything.

So he moves on.
With Flame's favourite athlete, Parrot.

Hesitantly, Wemmbu opens Instagram.

He stares at the search bar for a second too long.

Types it anyway.

ParrotX2.

Profile. Follow.

Done.

His thumb hovers over his screen—like something irreversible just happened.

Wemmbu stares at his screen.

Following.

The button already changed.

There’s no taking it back now.

For a moment, everything is quiet


[PRIVATE - EGGCHAN]

WEMMBU

WEMMBU

EGGCHAN

WEMMBU

His finger hovers over the button. His mind in a constant contemplation.

Unfollow?

Follow?

Unfollow—

He locks his phone instead.

Throws it onto his bed like it burned him.

Picks it back up immediately.


WEMMBU

what if he’s telling his friends rn

what if flame sees

EGGCHAN

GOOD.

let him see.

WEMMBU

I can’t do this

EGGCHAN

Wemmbu opens the app again.

Still no follow back.

Still nothing.

His chest feels tight—like he just did something irreversible over a single tap.


WEMMBU

EGGCHAN

because this one was my idea 😭

WEMMBU

I hate u

EGGCHAN

u love me

WEMMBU

EGGCHAN

DO NOT—


Wemmbu closes the chat. Opens Parrot’s profile again.

Shares.

Refresh.

Nothing.

Refresh.

Nothing.

He groans, dropping his face into his pillow.

“…this is so embarrassing.”

And yet—

He doesn’t unfollow.
