A Second Chance at Love (Miniminter Fanfic)

Sharani pov 

I was sitting at my setup as i was recording a video for my channel with Niki and Jack. I've been alive at best after my boyfriend died things haven't been the same but there is one guy who has been making me smile recently Simon aka Miniminter aka a member of the Sidemen we started talking about a year ago we are pretty good friends. I'm kinda excited low-key cause we and by we i mean me and the rest of the dream team. 

After an hour or so we're done recording i ask Niki and Jack to send me their footage and we say bye and end the call.  Anyways back to interesting part. We're doing an IRL aka a real life collaboration between the Sidemen and the Dream team. I haven't been in any of their videos since the 100K tag video in which me George and Tommy teamed up in but we lost. We also have a minecraft video in mind which we will probably end up filming. 

I realised that it's 5 pm and i haven't even showered yet. Was i that busy filming and editing. Eh better late then never i quickly took a shower and got dressed in some comfy clothes.

the outfit in question ^^^^^

I went downstairs and see George on his phone sitting at the counter and he doesn't seem to notice me I decided to sneak up from behind. I put my hands on his shoulders and say BOO 

George screams and just stand there laughing. God I'm lucky to have him and the Dream team. He turns around and glares at me saying "Come on that wasn't funny" I laughed one more time and said , "It was though" 

George said "This collab will be chaotic and epic" I reply and say It'll be chaotic, that's for sure. Especially with Dream and Sapnap involved."

I chuckled, knowing exactly what he meant. The Dream Team plus the Sidemen in one video was bound to be an entertaining mess. But that was part of the fun, right?

As the evening wore on, I found myself drifting back to thoughts of Simon. I wondered what he was doing right now, if he was thinking about the collab too, or if he was just going about his day like normal. It was strange how someone I'd never even met in person could have such an impact on me. But that was the power of the internet, I suppose—it brought people together in unexpected ways.

Eventually after about an hour Dream and Sapnap came back as they we went out to get stuff. Dream and George and Sap were too lazy to cook so I did instead and we ate occasionally cracking jokes talking about the most random ass shit possible but it was normal for us it took us 4 years before we even started living together.

After dinner, I retreated back to my room, intending to edit some footage from earlier, but my mind kept wandering. I couldn't focus, no matter how hard I tried. Eventually, I gave up and flopped onto my bed, staring up at the ceiling.

It was weird to think about how much had changed in such a short time. A year ago, I was in a different place—mentally, emotionally, everything. Losing Theo had shattered me in ways I didn't think were possible, and for a while, I didn't know if I'd ever feel whole again. But then, slowly, things started to get better. I had my friends, my music, my channel—and Simon.

He had a way of making everything seem a little brighter, a little less heavy. His silly jokes, his goofy smile, the way he always seemed to know what to say to cheer me up—it was like he could sense when I needed a pick-me-up, even from miles away. And maybe that was part of why I was so drawn to him. He made me feel safe, cared for, in a way I hadn't felt in a long time.

I sighed, rolling over onto my side, feeling a mix of emotions swirling inside me. I knew I couldn't keep these feelings bottled up forever. Sooner or later, I'd have to confront them, figure out what they meant, and decide what to do about them. But for now, I was content to just let things be. The collab was coming up soon, and that was enough to keep me occupied.

Suddenly i heard scratches on the door. I opened and saw Patches who just walked into my room. Gosh this cat always sleeps in my room see started rubbing leg as if she was comforting me and it helped i sat on my bed with Patches who was next to me.

I glanced at my phone, half-expecting a message from Simon, but there was nothing. Part of me wanted to reach out to him, just to see how he was doing, but I didn't want to seem too eager. Instead, I grabbed my laptop and started mindlessly scrolling through my social media feed, trying to distract myself.

As I scrolled, I came across a post from the Sidemen's official account, teasing the upcoming collab. My heart skipped a beat as I read through the comments, fans speculating about what kind of chaos would ensue when our two groups finally came together. It was a little overwhelming, seeing so much excitement from the fans, but it was also kind of thrilling. This was going to be big, and I was going to be a part of it.

I smiled to myself, feeling a surge of anticipation. Whatever happened, I knew it would be worth it. Whether or not Simon felt the same way about me, at least I'd get to spend some time with him, have some fun, and make some memories. And maybe, just maybe, I'd find the courage to tell him how I really felt.

But for now, I'd take things one step at a time. The collab was coming, and I had a feeling it was going to be something special.
