Reality Hurts, Chapter 1: The Arrival

Felix watched out of the window as his car drove up to the outside of mapper camp. He shivered slightly the camp came into view. Felix knew that he would have to make a good first impression to the mappers that he had known for so long online. Even though these people were his friends, he had never met any mappers face to face before. It would still be nerve-wracking as ever.

The most nerve-wracking part of arriving, however, was seeing Aen. Aen and Felix had married each other online, but Felix was unsure if it was all just a joke, or something more serious. Secretly, Felix had a real crush, and didn't know if Aen felt the same way about him. Being gay was not something that Felix liked to mention, but he definitely showed his support for gay rights on the wiki. Knowing that there were some homophobes that would be at the camp made Felix feel even worse.

"Are you ready to go?" asked Felix's mom, awaking him from his deep thought.

Felix knew that it was too late to chicken out.

"Yes" he stammered as he opened his car door and stepped out to the entrance.

Reality Hurts, Chapter 2: Camp

Felix was met by a man in a suit.

"Hello, what is your name?" asked the man in the suit. "You know me as Pezminer12. Here at mapping summer camp, we don't go by our real names, to ensure privacy. So go by your screen name."

"Oh... Um... Fe-KKAP" stammered Felix, in his slight French accent.

"Oh, KKAP. Nice of you to come!" exclaimed Pez enthusiastically. "You're in Bunk Three, with 4 other campers. Your councler is TOLF, and the other campers are Olimario948, Flaming Spaghetti Monster, EvergreenMapping,... and Aendreaus Mapping."

Felix couldn't help but smile. Aen was in his bunk! Maybe he had a chance after all. He ran straight to his bunk, giddy with excitement. When he opened the door, he was welcomed by TOLF.

"Hey, you must be KKAP. Nice to meet you. I'll be your councler at this camp. You're the last one to arrive. Dinner is in a few hours, why don't you go outside with your bunkmates to socialize?"

Felix nodded and went out to meet them. It soon appeared that "socializing" was most of the male campers trying-and failing- to court the only girl at the camp, Sparkly Venice. Sparkly Venice was beautiful alright, but Felix wasn't interested in girls anyway. He wanted to find Aen.

Felix found Aen hanging back from the crowd, on his own. Felix had seen pictures of Aen on Skype before, but Aen was even more handsome in person. When Felix and Aen made eye contact, Felix could swear there was electricity flowing between them. Aen smiled at Felix, and walked over. Felix blushed so hard he felt as if his entire face was redder than a tomato.

"Hey, you must be KKAP." said Aen as he smiled again. Felix almost had a heart attack. Aen might actually like him! "Yeah, that's me."

They started talking, and laughing together. The more they talked, the more Felix liked Aen. Felix hoped it was the other way round, too. Soon, it was time for dinner. Aen raced on ahead, and Felix would have followed, but he heard a small sob from behind the dining hall.

It was Flaming.

Reality Hurts, Chapter 3: Confession

"D-Don't come any closer!" stammered Flaming as Felix approached him slowly.

"Hey, what's wrong?" asked Felix. He wondered what it could be. Flaming was just laughing with Sparkly a few moments earlier.

"Promise you won't tell anybody, KKAP?" Flaming said quietly.

"Yeah, of course. I'm trustworthy."

Flaming sighed and begun to confess.

"I've always made jokes on Wikia about liking Sparkly. But the truth is, I really do. Sparkly's the most beautiful girl I've ever seen." Flaming sighed again. "Bu-But... She's run off with Olimario. Sparkly wants Olimario more than me. I thought I had a chance, so I asked her out, but it was too late. She said I wasn't manly enough."

Felix couldn't help but smirk. Flaming definitely wasn't the manliest guy he knew, but Olimario wasn't better either. That was a trend among mappers, it seemed.

Then Felix remembered a conversation he had with Olimario a week before he arrived at the camp.

"Wait. I remember Oli telling me a while back that he liked you. Why would he be going out with Sparkly?"

"I don't know, is he bisexual?" questioned Flaming. Felix just shrugged and said "It's his choice. I respect him whatever his decision is."

Flaming sighed yet again. "This is turning into one crazy love triangle..."

Suddenly Felix smiled. "I know what to do. I can help you out."

"Really?" exclaimed Flaming. His happiness was very visible.

"Yeah." grinned Felix. "And if it doesn't work, I'll think of something else. We're mappers after all. We're like the smartest guys around! Now let's go to dinner, we're late."

They both got up and walked into the dining hall. Felix couldn't keep a smile off his face. The plan would not only be great for Flaming, it would also work well for him! It all depended on Aen...
