I walk into the coffee shop and scan the room. I was a few minutes late since I was super hungover.

I looked over and saw both Sam and Colby sitting there. I smiled a little bit and walked towards the table.

"Hey, sorry I'm a little late." I apologize as I sit down. They both shrugged it off. I was wondering why they invited me here.

"It's fine. I got you an Iced Coffee." I'm surprised Colby remembered. I put the straw in so I could drink it.

"So, is there any reason why you two invited me here?" I question. I know there was a catch to why they invited me out.

I looked in between the two, waiting for them to say something. "Yeah, the two of us have been talking recently." Colby spoke up.

"We're flying to Hawaii next week to film a video for our series." Sam started out, I was curious to see where this was going.

I stayed quiet and listened. "We like to bring our friends and special guests on them, and we were wondering if you would come along."

I choked on my coffee, not expecting him to say that. I just made up with Colby a week ago.

And now they're inviting me out to film with them in Hawaii? "You wouldn't have to pay for a plane ticket or a hotel room." Sam explained.

I would love to go and film with them. But then I start to get nervous. Fans started sending me death threats whenever they caught Colby and I kissing.

What are they gonna say whenever they see me filming and friends with them again after they think I cheated on Colby and used him for subscribers?

"Guys, I love the offer. I don't think I'll be able to do it though." I sadly declined.

I would love to visit Hawaii and go on a ghost hunting trip with them. I just don't think I'll be able to handle the threats.

I became weaker once my mom passed away. Sam looked sadden when I said that but Colby looked like he didn't want to give up.

"Why not?" He pushed. Sam nudged him, telling him it was too personal but I didn't mind.

"I don't wanna be that person but your fans don't like me. If they see me on the trip, there's gonna be rumors and death threats." I answer.

They both huffed out a breath, like they weren't expecting that answer. "I totally understand." Sam frowned.

"I don't. You didn't let it stop you before." I wonder why Colby is so upset. I guess it might be because he thought I was going to say yes.

"Colby, it's different. Your fans think I cheated on you and that I used you both." Now Colby looked confused.

He didn't bring it up though. They just sighed and looked in between each other.

"We understand if you don't wanna do it. Let's do this, we'll give you a day or two to think of an answer. Once you have it, let us know."

I nodded my head happily. I do wanna go and see Hawaii since I've never been.

I just know I'll never hear the end of it. We hung out at the coffee shop for a while.

They told me there's a house slash theater in Maui they want to visit. They said Kat was going, but their friend Stas wasn't.

When we left, I made sure to give them both a hug. I went back to the house to see Xepher had left.

Hayden left early this morning so he could talk to the manager. He should be gone for most of the day.
