Dan POV

"What do you want to name your channel?" I grinned.

"I have no idea...Aaron Scott?" Aaron laughed uneasily.

"Come on, something more creative." I say, leaning back in my desk chair as he lays down fully on the sofa bed, holding his phone above his face.

"Aaron's channel?" He sighed.

"Fine, but you're stuck with that from now on!" I warn him.

"Sweet, can I film my first video?" He grins excitedly.

"Yeah, if you film it in your bedroom and Phil and I can explain you're my cousin or something."

"Are you guys ever going to come out?" He sighs.

"Aaron, as soon as we tweet this link to your channel and you gain publicity, you will learn why it sucks to be internet famous. Us being together is the last piece of information that is still a secret. We're planning on coming out soon anyway, you're coming to Vidcon with us, we can't really hide it."

"Vidcon? Are you being serious?" His voice squeaks.

"Yes, I'm being serious." I reply, purposely heightening the tone of my voice to mimic him.

"Shut it, I'm beginning to think my voice will never break."

"It will soon, give it some time. I bet your singing voice will be amazing when it does."

"Maybe, come on. I was thinking of doing an acoustic cover of 'Feeling Good'? Like, singing in the style of Muse except just my guitar." He explained.

"Sounds good, can I watch you film?" I asked, eager to hear him sing. He hesitated but eventually agreed, seeing as Phil was out visiting Carrie.

"How do I start?" He asked, suddenly confused.

"Just think of an intro, and then let me know when you're going to sing so I can get a better microphone!"

"Okay, could you like, sit in the lounge while I film the first bit? I just feel a bit awkward." He said sheepishly.

"Yes, if I must. Text me when you're ready to sing." I grin, leaving him alone.

Aaron POV

'Oh god...what do I say?' I think to myself.

"What's up, YouTube? My names Aaron, and this is my channel." I say slowly, but repeating it a few times to get the right take.

"On my channel, I guess it going to be the occasional 'video blog'," I say, using quotation marks, "to guitar and singing covers. To kick it all off, I'm going to cover 'Feeling Good' in the style of Muse, but acoustically." I smile. I pull out my phone and text Dan letting him know I'm done.

"You ready to sing now?" He laughs.

"Yep, let me know when I can start!"

He nods his head and I begin to pick the intro before strumming a few bars softly.

"Birds flying high, you know how I feel,

Sun in the sky, you know how I feel.

Rivers drifting on by, you know how I feel.

It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life,

For me.

And I'm feeling good." I sing, my voice exploring new pitches and filling the room with an echo. I finish the song and say an outro to my video, before stopping the camera and laying onto my bed.
