Luke and Sapnap watched as Karl took his shoes off and set them in front of the door. Karl looked up from his shoes to us.
"You know, you two can sit down and wait," Karl suggested. Luke nodded.
"Mhm.. Right, yeah," I said, but still stood there, watching. Karl finished taking his shoes off and just smiled. He then took my hat off and ruffled Sapnap's hair. Normally Sapnap would've complained, but he missed his touch so much that him taking his hat off didn't bother him. Karl put Sapnap's hat back on his head and walked to their room. Both Luke and Sapnap followed him.373Please respect copyright.PENANAGt8ginhbm0
"Let me help you carry some of your bags at least, Karl," Sapnap suggested. Karl looked at me weird.
"I know I've been gone a while, but you're acting so strange," Karl said as he handed me a bag to carry.
"I'm not acting fucking strange, Karl; it's been like 3 months since I last saw you!" Sapnap replied with irritation.373Please respect copyright.PENANAIO6sNQcSxg
"Luke hasn't seen me in the same amount of time, Nick, but he isn't acting like you are," Karl rebutted.
"Oh- don't compare me to Luke!" Sapnap whined with an irritated tone, "He's been complaining the whole time! He just doesn't show it the way I do!"
Luke came running into the room.373Please respect copyright.PENANATCwHU7NFWT
"I got- um- mountain dew and monster for you!" He said to Karl, sounding a bit out of breath.373Please respect copyright.PENANAhm5IJmDb2T
"See?!" Sapnap complained. Karl rolled his eyes.
"Quit whining," Karl said. Sapnap crossed his arms.
"I'm not whining," Karl grabbed the mountain dew and monster and kissed Luke on the cheek.
"Luke, is he whining?" Karl asked. Luke nodded.
"Sounds a lot like whining to me," Luke replied.
"What?!" Sapnap asked in disbelief.
"Thanks, hon," Karl thanked Luke as he set his luggage down and sat in his gaming chair. Sapnap sighed in irritation and sat on the bed. Luke sat next to Karl and watched him play Minecraft.
"You just got here and you're already working on the SMP?" Sapnap asked.
"I mean- yeah, I guess," Karl replied. Sapnap rolled his eyes and scoffed as he laid down. He opened Twitter and browsed his timeline, occasionally looking back at Karl and Luke; only admitting to himself that he was getting a bit jealous. Karl caught him looking and chuckled.
"Come here, crybaby," He said. Sapnap crossed his arms and walked over in a huff. Karl pulled another gaming chair over and patted on it, signaling for him to sit down. He refused and just stood there. Karl noticed this and took matters into his own hands, grabbing Sapnap's hand and pulling him downwards to sit in the chair. "Stop being so stubborn, hon,"
Sapnap made a bit of a pout and sat down. He watched as Karl played Minecraft and eventually gave in, leaning his head on Karl's shoulder. Even though he couldn't see Karl's face, he could just feel the shit-grin he had on it knowing he had just won their small argument due to me giving in. He then patted Sapnap's head and went back to playing Minecraft.

Later on..
Karl had been streaming for a while and Luke fell asleep in the chair next to him, though Karl made sure that nobody could see him in the frame to prevent suspicions from building up on their relationship. Karl planned on streaming for a few more hours. Sapnap could tell that much, so he decided to shower and relax. He stood up from the gaming chair and Karl looked up at Sapnap curiously, not caring too much about the game.
"Where are you going, hon- Nick-?" He asked. Sapnap looked at him wide-eyed, knowing he just slipped up and turned his attention towards the chat, hoping that nobody noticed. Thankfully nobody did from what Sapnap could see. Sapnap let out a sigh of relief and turned his attention back towards Karl. He raised an eyebrow.
"I'm gonna go shower," He replied. Karl nodded.
"Let me know when you're done," He then looked back at his game and started focusing.
"Will do," Sapnap said as he grabbed a towel and walked to the bathroom. He turned on music on his speaker and got in the shower. He could hear Karl screaming as he played Valorant over Sapnap's music and couldn't help but laugh. When he finished showering, he wrapped the towel around his waist and walked out, completely forgetting Karl was streaming at the moment.
"Hey, Karl- I'm done showering," He said. Karl turned his head.
"Oh okay-" he cut himself off when he realized Sapnap wasn't clothed. "NICK I'M STREAMING-"
"Oh shit- sorry," He walked off of frame and sat on the bed. Karl's face was obviously red as he was laughing from embarrassment.
"Sorry about that everybody- he's an idiot," Karl said. He then got a donation in reply to Karl's comment.
"It's okay- I'm sure none of us minded it anyways; it was a nice thing to see,"
"Wooaahhhhh there; calm down. i don't think Nick would appreciate what you just said," Karl said. Sapnap laughed.
"Or maybe just you wouldn't appreciate it," He mumbled so the stream couldn't hear.
"Shut the fuck up, Nick," He said, "Luke wouldn't either,"
The chat immediately started questioning Karl's comment
What about Luke?
Wait- Luke as in Punz?
What did Sapnap say??
Where the hell did Luke come into conversation?
Karl just ignored the chat.
"Nick- get fucking dressed!" He yelled.
"But I'm relaxing!" Sapnap whined.
"Well I'm streaming!" Karl replied.
"They can't see me!" Sapnap continued to argue.
"But I can!" Karl argued back.
"You've never minded before!" Sapnap yelled. His eyes widened when he realized he said too much. Karl's face got red.
"I- N-Nick!" Karl yelled.
"W-what?!"
Karl turned to his stream and turned the game off.
"Hey guys- sorry to end the steam so early but I've got some stuff to get done. I'll send you guys over to George since he's streaming right now, so let me do that... Slash raid.... George... Found... Okay, so I want everybody to head over there as soon as I end the stream; ready?? Alright, bye everybody!" Karl ended the stream and immediately walked over to Sapnap.
"Nicholas Armstrong, put some clothes on now," He demanded.
"Ooh- somebody's mad," Sapnap replied as he stood up and walked to the dresser.
"And somebody's obeying what I just told him to do," Karl shot back. Sapnap rolled my eyes.
"Whatever," Sapnap replied as he put one of Karl's sweatshirts on. "All of mine are in the wash, so I'm wearing yours,"
"You don't have to lie to me about why you're wearing my clothes, hon," Karl said with a laugh. Sapnap rolled his eyes once again and laid down.
"Shut up and come cuddle with me," Sapnap said.
"I don't hear a 'please' in that request," Karl stated, intentionally irritating me.
"PLEASE come cuddle with me," Sapnap said in irritation as he, modified his sentence.
"Well since you asked so nicely-," Karl said as he crawled onto the bed. Sapnap cuddled into his chest and yawned. Karl looked at me, "You tired, hon?" Sapnap nodded
"Just a bit," He replied.
"Go ahead and go to sleep; I'm right here with you, so don't worry. I've got you," Karl suggested. Sapnap nodded as he rested his eyes, almost immediately falling asleep.

I hope everybody enjoyed this chapter of "Touch starved"! I plan on adding more Luke moments in there in the following episodes, but it was a bit hard to get that in there since I don't know all that much about Punz and it's also only the first chapter. I still hope it was enjoyable regardless, and um- yeah! Stay tuned for the next chapter!
