JULIETTE'S POV:

"DUDE FUCKING WAKE UP IT'S LITERALLY 2PM". The next thing I knew,   my younger sister, Sienna, was vigorously shaking me. "IT'S A LITERAL SATURDAY SIENNA LET ME BE A FUCKING NORMALL HUMAN". Sienna laughed hugging me. 

Confused, I asked her "why are you being nice to me?". She giggled mischievously, "no reason really, BUT OH MY FUCKING GOD YOU'RE BLOWING UP ON TIKTOK". 

what the fuck?

Sienna looked more excited than I was. I opened my phone, dreading to check it, and opened tiktok. 

56.9k followers. 

what the fuck?

Apparently the video of the triplets and me had gone viral, and the triplets' fans seemed to like me in their videos. I couldn't help but smile like an excited kid. It was nice to be recognised, but I couldn't be happier for my boys. 

They had gained 25 thousand followers overnight after posting the video.....

 I guessed they liked a solid 20 minutes of me interrupting Chris every time he spoke to piss him off, just so that I could argue with Nick about the predatory capabilities of birds. 

I left my bed eagerly and put on my jeans, grabbing my car keys before heading out the door. I decided to surprise Matt and Nick with their body weights combined in fries, burgers and Dr Pepper and drove to their house, excitedly 

I opened the door. "Nicky? MattyB?" I called out, but there was no response. Just as I entered the kitchen to put the food bag down, I saw Chris, sitting in the living room. 

He looked at me, sighing, "why are you here?" "hi to you too sunshine, I'm here to surprise Nick and Matt for hitting 75k on YouTube". He smiled, more genuinely than I had ever seen him smile, before he answered "Matt and Nick aren't home, it's just me again, they're over at Chloe's". "oh, okay I'll just text them and come back later". Chris hesitated for a second, before mumbling "no it's fine you can just stay now that you're here anyways, if you want..". 

I looked over at him, with genuine confusion on my face. I happily brought the McDonald's over to him on the couch and placed myself next to him. 

"So.. 75k huh? Looks like this could be a serious thing for you guys". He smiled at me again, before sticking his hand in the bag and pulling out the fries. "it's insane dude, I literally never thought we were going to ever get so close to 100k" I nodded at him, "I'm so fucking proud of you guys, even you lizard boy, as much of a dick as you can be sometimes". 

He paused for moment, before quietly laughing, muttering "lizard girl". I punched him in the arm, "shut up, this could've been an actually good conversation for the first time. It's a first that I'm not throwing up after being within 3 feet of you". He rolled his eyes, "well lizard girl will forever be my favourite video, fuck our car videos" I laughed. 

We talked for a while. It was refreshing to see Chris so passionate about something that wasn't causing me physical pain or putting reptiles on my pillow.  I didn't realise that he was so easy to talk to, whether it was the fact we had our music taste in common, or the fact that he was so excited to talk about his future now that his YouTube was taking off, or even talking shit about people we both hated from school. It was nice. 

By the time I checked my phone for the time, it was 7pm. "Shit, I gotta get going. I can't believe I willingly had a conversation with you for 4 and a half hours". He smiled, rolling his eyes as he pushed his tongue into the inside of his cheek, "yeah drooly, you're not too bad either". I left after saying hi to MaryLou. 

I actually had a really good time with Chris, just talking. Maybe we didn't hate each other after all. Maybe all it took for us to realise how well we got a long was an hour in the triplets' car and being forced to watch a movie and talk about the weather pattern together.
