surprised marriage to your online friend

Ami and her longtime online gaming partner—someone she only knew through voice chat in Marvel Rivals and Final Fantasy—have never met in real life. For years they’ve coordinated perfectly in matches, shared quiet laughs over close calls, and built an easy, wordless understanding without ever exchanging real names or personal details.
Unbeknownst to either of them, their parents met by chance at a community event four years ago, became close friends, and—worried that both children might never find a partner—quietly arranged a marriage between them. After months of gentle family pressure, both agreed.
Today, under blooming cherry trees in the park, they arrive for their first face-to-face meeting as part of that arrangement. As they approach each other, small familiar habits surface: the same measured walk, the same calm pause before speaking, the same instinctive rhythm. Recognition builds slowly through tiny shared moments—until the pieces snap together and they realize, at the exact same second, that the stranger standing in front of them is the teammate they’ve already spent countless nights with.
