That evening, I come to the table wearing my green tracksuit and a white t-shirt. Albert sits the table from me, waiting for my arrival. He looks up from his food as i take a seat. "We got pizza tonight to celebrate your arrival," He states. I take a bite of the pizza, it's delicious. I see him looking at me but i take no notice, I still can't believe my luck. After a while he clears his throat and says, "Do you uh- wanna film a video with me sometime?" I pause for a moment 'IS THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENING RIGHT NOW?' i say in my head (of course) "Yes!" I say, a bit too enthusiastically. I look down at the pizza box, only one slice left. I want it SO bad and so does he. I look at him in the eyes and we both attempt to grab the pizza slice at the same time but we end up touching hands. We laugh for ages. "Take it!" i say.
"No, No, I insist, you have it! it's your first time here in America! try some real pizza" He says in his filming voice.
I giggle and take the slice. We converse about his channel and how much i was a fan of him and how i brought some of his merch in my suitcase.

yet i keep a secret about my crush...

"So, When should we film?" I ask.
"Hm- I have nothing planned for tonight so... tonight!" he exclaims and laughs.
I smile, "see you then..." and head to my room to change into something better. I wear some flared, black jeans and a red mesh top. I apply some red lipstick and a black jacket. Too much? No.. Never too much! After all, i'm going on youtube for millions of his subscribers to see. I open the door to his filming room, it's much bigger in real life, messier than i expected.
"Y-you look nice.." he stutters.
"Thanks.." I smile whilst sitting down in the chair next to him. He turns on the ceiling fan and I get hit in the head by one of his styrofoam heads. We fall about laughing.
