Xavier held the phone steady for a moment longer, the grin still carved into his face. "Actually… don't go anywhere just yet. I'll be back in a second." He set the phone down on the table, the camera aimed toward the living room. His footsteps faded as he disappeared into his room.
The stream didn't stop. The chat kept rolling, buzzing with hype.
[Wait he just left??]
[Bro what if we get to see his house]
[LMAO imagine if Lyra shows up]
Almost on cue, Lyra leaned into frame, confused at first before realizing the chat was still running. Her sharp eyes flicked to the phone, then widened as the comments started exploding.
[HOLYYYY IS THAT LYRAAAA??]
[SHE'S SO PRETTY WTF]
[Xavier doesn't deserve her]
[Lyra marry me pls]
[Notice me queen]
Lyra blinked, then let out a soft laugh through her nose. She crossed her arms and tilted her head, her tone dry. "You people really have no shame, do you?"
That only made the chat spam harder.
[QUEEN IS TALKING TO US]
