The Good Old Days- A Colleen Evans Fanfiction

1

"Hey guys!" I speak to my camera. "If you've already seen the new Miranda video, you know what this is all about."
I pause and wipe my eyes.
"I can not express how much I love you guys. Thank you for your support. Thank you for riding this crazy roller coaster with me for the past- Oh my God, I don't even know hoe many years. You guys mean so much to me, you don't even know." I put my hands over my eyes. Lily crawls to my feet.
"And now I'm a mom, a wife, and a responsible adult," I pause for a second, pulling Lily on my lap. "I can't even imagine my life if I had never started YouTube. I'd probably be single and alone. I wouldn't have half the friends I have today."
Lily laughs and drools on my shoulder.
"So, now, the time has come. No more Miranda Sings. No more PsychoSoprano. No more Colleen's Corner. Just me, Colleen Mae Evans."
"Remember when Josh stopped vlogging? Oh my God, you guys went crazy. It was bittersweet." I choke on my words. "I can't believe this is actually happening. Oh wow. Oh wow.
"I really don't know what to say. I can't talk without sobbing. Why am I making such a big deal out of this?" I laughed and looked up, avoiding the camera. "So, I guess this is it. The end of our time together, and the beginning of a new life for me. Bye guys. Be nice to people!" Josh runs in to the shot.
"Lily, say 'bye-bye.'"
"Byebye!!"
"Say 'spread happiness!'"
"Spwed heppiness!" I smile at my daughter and kiss her head.
"Bye." I say, and Lily waves at the camera as I end the last video. I cry in Josh's arms, not believing that it's actually over.
I post the video right away, without editing it. I would be a mess.
