Chapter 8
The sun beams tore through my living room windows and I turned my head away from them, desperate for some more sleep. I must have forgot that I fell asleep on Ashton's shoulder because the "pillow" that I was pushing my nose into wasn't exactly "squishy" like my pillows are.
"Good morning," Ashton whispered, bringing his arm up to run through my hair.
"Hi," I whispered, snuggling further into his neck.
"Do you want to go get some breakfast?" Ashton asked, his voice cracking slightly.
"Sure," I sat up. I stretched my arms up and leaned down to touch my toes. I ran my fingers through my hair and they got caught in the mass of tangles littering my hair. I wouldn't dare look in the mirror and I decided not to put a second thought into my appearance because it was absolutely pointless by now. I walked to my room and put on a sweatshirt. A wimpy side braid would have to do for my hair. I took Ashton's vlogging camera off my coffee table. That boy took that thing everywhere. Since he was no where to be seen I decided to have some fun with it. Pressing the button to start recording I turned the camera around and began to talk.
"Hi...Ashton. You are somewhere in my apartment right now and I have no idea where you are, but you left your camera on my coffee table. Do you only have one camera? Or do you have like one in each pair of pants. Bc you know you always need to make sure you have one. What would you do if you broke one? Would you have like a mental breakdown? Oh! And I would like to say that I don't believe you one bit when you say that the only reason you have all of the Disney movies is because of your little sister, especially sense they live about 3 hours away." I heard Ashton's footsteps coming down the hallway so I set the camera back on the table and acted as if I was scrolling through my twitter feed on my phone. As he picked it up I let my mind drift of for a minute. Holding the camera was kind of fun, maybe I should try to make a youtube channel. I'll have to talk to Ashton about it and see what he thinks.
"C'mon, Arden, let's go." Ashton put the black Nikon in his front pocket. He looked at me skeptically as he walked towards to door.
"What did you do?" he asked. Crap, he must have noticed my "don't look guilty" face which mainly consisted of a sadistic looking smile.
"Nothing, am I not allowed to be happy that I'm about to go eat breakfast with my boyfriend." I defended myself.
"Okay, but since you seem to feel great, you owe me a back massage later," he tells me, "your couch doesn't really provide good support." He wraps he stretches his arms over his head which reveals a thin sliver of his lower abdomen.
"I slept quite well," I smile at him.
"I'm sure you did, since I was your pillow," he chuckles.
"You were quite squishy," I tease poking his bicep as if to prove my point.
"Hey!" he protested," how could you hurt my feelings like that. You know I have awesome muscles."
"Sure whatever you say," I laugh at him before running down the stairs. Once we were out in the open, he dropped it knowing that we were keeping our relationship a secret. We took a taxi instead of an uber to this little diner Ashton would not stop talking about. (Apparently they had the best strawberry pancakes ever.) When we get out of the yellow car, the diner looks like something from a movie (in nyc it probably was from). Walking in I expected to see the waitresses in full on poodle skirts.
"So I was thinking..." I say once we have sat down.
"Oh, no," Ashton Jokes," that can't be good"
"Whatever, But I want to know how hard you think it would be for me to start a youtube channel." I ask, hesitantly. Youtube was his thing butit seemed like so much fun and it made good money too.
"Ofcourse I would still help you film and all!" I rush out.
"I think you'd be good at it. What content were you thinking about producing?" he questions.
'I don't know. Sing. Vlogs. I'm not that good at a lot of stuff." I say, honestly.
"Well I can atleast say that you are a natural in front of the camera," he smirks. I stare at him for a few minutes before I realized that he had seen me with his computer earlier. I blush. I knew hed see it eventually but I didn't think id be there when he did.
"Can I put that clip at the end of my video?"
"I guess."
"...and can I introduce you as my girlfriend?" He ask hesitantly.
"Sure." I say before I even think about it. I couldn't stand to let the hopeful gleem in his eyes turn to disappointment.
"Yes!" he says. I cannot help but smile as he shows off his dimples. I jknow he understands whu I amd so nervous about letting everyone know, but I can't expect him to keep such a big thing in his life a secret.
"We are going to film a collab for your first video." He says. I just nod. It'd probably be best to just let him take charge of the beginning of our adventure.
"But wait! What about my channel's name?"
"Well for that you are on your own." He smiled.
"Leave" I motioned to the door. Ashton laughed and shook his head. Our idea of a collab failed when I realized he'd be with me and watching me as we filmed my first video. And that was not going to happen. Ly
"The camera need to be focused!" He reminded me of the entire reason he had come into the room.
"Then will you leave me alone?" I question," just until I finish filming!"
Ashton had added the clip I had filmed to the end of his video and now everyone was asking about me. So, it made sense for me to steel his twitter account and ask for them to send me questions for me to answer. He left me with his phone (the favorited tweets pulled up), before leaving to sit in the living room.
"Hey, guys!" I waave awkwardly at the camera," soo... this is only slightly awkward." I ran my fingers through my hair before jumping into the questions both ash and I had liked. I spent close to 30 minutes rambling on before finally ending the clip and shutting down the camera. It would probably take me a couple days to edit it. I am familiar with the software but I don't want my videos to be like everyone else's. So it'll take some time to get used to this whole making my own videos up thing.

A/N okay so yeah. I suck at uploading. Sorry. But I'm only a couple weeks from summer break and will try to upload more, but the bad part is. I won't have a computer anymore. So updating will be a bit more difficult. As soon as I get the opportunity to get a keyboard for my ipad we wont have as many problems. But until the vote, comment, follow. Enjoy. Thx : *
