Pewdie's Bromance

Birthday

After adopting Ivana, I have been working hard to make sure my YouTube "career" was doing well. I felt that it needed to be perfect because not only did I have to impress my fans, but I needed to earn enough money to support this family. Don't get me wrong, Felix earns enough to support us all, even if I wasn't working, but I wanted this life to be perfect from here on out. I wanted our kids to get anything they wanted and be able to go out and experience the world when they wanted to, similar to any other parent. Felix brings in about 7.5 million dollars a year, and I brought in about 7 million last year. Last month I hit 30 million subs! Felix always joked with me, saying I would never beat him in subscriber count, but I took it as a challenge. Motivation to make every video even more perfect and entertaining then the last. I had to be better. I had to beat him at his own game. I have done everything, from tags to games, challenges and even DIY's. I actually convinced Felix to do the ALS ice bucket challenge and post it on my channel. That video alone got me over 10 million subs. More people took notice of me. I was asked to be on TV shows like Once Upon A Time, Revenge, and Resurrection. Even though a large portion of my time is spent recording, editing, or memorizing lines, I always made room for my family. After all, singer Kellin Quinn got a tattoo that states, "before you, I serve nothing" and that's exactly how I feel about my family. They are my first priority; they are more important to me than any number of subscribers I have. And I'm not saying I don't love my subs, I do, it's just that family to me, like to many out there, is number one. Today is Ivana's birthday, December 26th. I awake early to take down all of the Christmas decorations only to replace them with birthday decorations. I cooked her favorite breakfast, bacon and eggs, and set up the plates on the table. Once everything was set up, the only thing I had to do was wake up Ivana. When I walked into her room, she was cuddling into the giant teddy bear we had gotten her for Christmas. She says she has outgrown them, but I see now she defiantly hasn't. I smirk and kneel beside her bed.

"Baby, wake up, it's your birthday." Her arms untangled from the teddy bear as she rolled over to face me.

"Ma, I'm 13, I'm not a baby." She said in a groggy morning voice.

"You're 14 now, but you will always be my baby." She smirked and rolled her eyes. She kissed my cheek and got out of bed. We walked into the living room and her eyes grew when she saw the décor and breakfast. She hugged me tightly.

"Thank you so much mom."

"Any time baby." I said and kissed her head.

I heard footsteps and Felix walked in with Stephano holding his hand walking by his side. He was two now and learned how to walk and speak rather well. We sat and began to eat.

"Happy birfday sissy." Stephano said smiling.

"Thanks little man." Ivana said picking him up and putting him on her knee.

"Happy birthday Ivana." Felix said smirking.

"Thanks dad."

We took the next few minutes to finish eating.

"Hey babe, you check your sub count recently?"

"No, why? Did something happen?" I asked, my voice lined with curiosity.

"I'm think you should see this." He handed me his iPad that was open to my channel.

"F-fourty billion subscribers?" I ask in shock.

"Yup, good job. Congrats to the new queen of youtube."

I smiled as the kids said congratulations, thanking them afterwards.

"Lets go out. Have some fun. Where do you wanna go Ivana?"

"I need to stop at the mall to shop for clothes, but after I think I wanna go to Dave and Busters."

"The mall? What clothes would you get there? You don't wear girly clothes." Felix said with a little laugh at the end.

"You know dad, there's this store I heard about called Hot Topic that has all the band merch a girl could ever want and more."

I giggle remembering when I had first shown her the store on our last trip to the mall.

"Sounds like a game plan. Lets head out."
