Foxes In Wonderland

Chapter 1 (by christianscrew)

Alice’s POV:

There it was, the place I’d been waiting to be for the past 4 months. Vidcon. It was where everyone I loved was all the Youtubers I spent blogging about and reading fan fiction for they were all here. I walked into the building and was greeted to the sight of a gigantic group of people. I got my pass and went on my way to go venture through to find my favorite Youtubers. Dan and Phil were first on my list. I stood in that line for nearly 30 minutes until it was finally my turn. I got hugs from both of them and pictures. I spent a big part of my day trying to find everyone I loved.

Last on my list was Christian Novelli. I’ve been a huge fan of him for the past 8 months and could not wait to meet him. The line was shorter there because it was later in the day and it was almost over. I was the last person in line and glad because I wouldn’t have to rush to talk to him. I stood in front of him and looked down awkwardly. Man he was even more gorgeous in real life.

“Hi Christian.” I said awkwardly looking up at his beautiful blue eyes. “Oh hi, looks like you’re the last person in line. What’s your name?” he looked a bit flustered when he noticed I’d said hello but I didn’t think anything of it. “I’m Alice” I say finally giving the courage to talk to him normally.

“I like your name, it reminds me of Alice in Wonderland” he says smiling. “Well since you’re the last person you can sit and we could just talk if you want.” He says patting the chair next to him for me to sit. He was even nicer in person. I smiled and walked around the table sitting next to him. He glanced at me again the quickly looked away.

“So Alice, uh who are some of your favorite Youtubers?” he asked awkwardly fixing his hair. I start. “Erm I have a lot. You, Dan, Phil, PJ, Chris, Sam Pepper, Caspar Lee, Alfie Deyes.” I try to list all of them as there are so many. “Wow I’m really one of your favorite Youtubers?” he asked shyly. I giggle a bit. “Yeah, I’ve been watching your videos for almost 8 months, I think you’re amazing.” I say quietly not looking up at him.

“Thanks.” He says again glancing at me one more then fixing his hair. “Alice,” he starts looking me in the eyes. “I know this might seem kind of…sudden but,” he pauses again taking a deep breath. I thought to myself, ‘He couldn’t be asking me what I think he is, I am nowhere close to deserving him’. He starts again “I think you’re really beautiful and I was wondering if you would maybe want to go to Starbucks or something but its okay if you don’t.” It came out rushed then he looked away. I looked at him and smiled. “I would love to.” I say. He turns back to me after a second and gives me a small smile. “Really?” he asks enthusiastically. I nod. “We can go now if you want. It’s up to you.” He says standing up and gathering his things. I do the same. “I guess we’re going now” I say with a chuckle. We walk toward the entrance/exit and catch a cab into the city.
