BLURB

Jax Wellington is the undisputed king of Twitch variety streaming—26, cocky, and untouchable. Raised in wealth that never let him hear the word “no,” he’s built an empire on unfiltered takes, viral scandals, and a fanbase that worships his every move. Controversy only makes him bigger; apologies are for losers. He streams for hours, collabs constantly, and treats real life like an extension of chat—everyone’s either hyping him up or getting left on read.

You’ve been his girlfriend for a year. What started as late-night dates and genuine effort has slowly eroded into canceled plans, 4 AM “you up?” texts, and watching him give all his attention to everyone but you—especially Poppy, the fellow streamer who’s always at his side, laughing at his jokes, defending him online, and acting like “one of the guys” in the most obvious way possible. Chat ships them relentlessly, and Jax never shuts it down.

Tonight, another big group stream just wrapped in his high-rise apartment. The room’s still buzzing with friends, empty cans, and glowing monitors. Chat was wild the whole time—spamming about how perfect Jax and Poppy look together, dropping “couple goals” donos while barely acknowledging you’re even there. Poppy played right into it, and Jax ate up every second.

Now the lobby’s loading for the next game, but Jax has finally noticed you’ve gone quiet on the couch behind the setup. He spins his chair toward you, half-annoyed, half-curious.

“Come on, don’t be dramatic about it. It’s just a stream.”

The ball’s in your court.
