Sqaishey's POV
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was worried about his safety for the next few days when the news gets out. I know his channel will be attacked as well as Lee's.

I held his hand in support and looked him in the eye, "you won't be hurt by this I swear, I will go through hell before you lose your fans."

He squeezed my band halfheartedly and a tear fell from his eye. "I don't get it... I don't get why your this nice, any other girl would use me for money, or for popularity."

"I don't get why a popular Youtuber would like me in the first place... I'm not that special..." I disagreed, shaking my head.

"You may not seem special to the person who walks past you, you may not seem special to half the people in the world. But you are every bit special to me, and I won't let you think that when I first stepped in that bus, I didn't have my eyes on you."

I was speechless at his words, and I just sat there, thinking of what he was saying. Then I heard a knock on the door, and Stampy got up to answer it.

Squid entered the room glaring at me, "what are you doing in here? Don't you see this is Stampy's hotel room, not yours."

"Squid-" Stampy spoke timidly.

"No, don't you Squid, me. She's in your hotel room at midnight. What do you think your doing?" Squid hissed his words with rage.

"Squid, why the hell are you drinking again, and we were talking! Like boyfriend-girlfriend-support talking. I thought Netty was the only mother-like-person in the way of us." Stampy snapped, matching Squid's attitude.

"Whatever mate, when you wake to find she's gone, you'll see." Squid stormed out of the room.

"What's his problem?" I asked, hesitating slightly.

"He had too much to drink and he's a angry drinker, he also has his suspicions of you deep in his mind." Stampy rubbed his head slightly embarrassed with Squid's outburst of us possibly staying the night together, although it wasn't gonna happen.

I giggled slightly at his rosy cheeks and poked them with a finger, "Whatcha thinking about, Kittycake?" Though I knew I wanted to hear his ideas about Squid's outburst.

"No-Nothing," he smiled and the blush lingered a little before going away. "He's really upset about Lee... He was his friend too, mainly why he was drinking to not think about it. I can't imagine what the other mates he plays his Crazy Craft series think," he paused and thought about it and his face went dead serious. "They don't know... We should call them tomorrow because they may be sleeping already."

A few moments of silence came back over us as we mourned him, even though I didn't know him so long, I watched his videos, and I knew his personality in his videos.

Soon a light came from the wall as Stampy turned on the TV and turned on Spongebob and grinned, looking at me.

"A little too old for Spongebob?" I asked Stampy, a smirk on my face.

"Never! How could you even imply that?" Stampy responded, smiling even wider then his grin.

Stampy's POV - Bus to London
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Crap! I looked at my watch and watched the bus nearly leave as I was super late due to editing the next month's Lovely World videos. I ran to the bus, suitcase in hand and my laptop in the other. The doors shut behind me and I gave a loud sigh of relief. Next was finding a seat otherwise it was the floor. I looked for a empty seat when a girl with brown hair caught my eye. There was a seat open beside her.

"Is anyone sitting there?" I asked in a small voice out of nervousness as I pointed to the seat beside her. I flash of guilt ran through me as I realized she was falling asleep.

"Uhhhh, sure." She moved over a bit more to give me room, as her body tensed with unease. I sat and opened my laptop to try to show I wasn't trying anything with her, and started to finish editing what I was nearly done with.

"Oh my God, your Stampy?" Her voice was echoed with surprise as she noticed me.

I nodded and I tried to find a way out of the fangirlling that was about to happen. "Yeah, are you on your way to Insomnia54?" I tried making small talk with her, despite the nervousness I got near women. She nodded her answer and I shut my laptop to look at the view outside, and the occasional glance at her, trying to check her out without drawing her attention.

"Do you have a channel?" I asked, trying to break the tension and the silence.

"Yeah, not very successful but its something." A mix of emotions came across her face, shame being one of them.

"I'll check it out now," she gave me the channel info and I watched a map she made for me, from a week ago. Her commentary was incredible already and she approves of my puns. I grinned to myself and clicked the subscribe button, started speaking again, despite my fact I wanted to die of shyness to someone so beautiful and funny. "I enjoyed that, your really good at commentating, I think you'll be successful in no time. Do you have a Skype that I could add you in?" I said, honestly.

"Yeah," her eyes sparkled in surprise as she told me her Skype information. I was careful not to tread on toes for the little time we sat on the bus about personal info, in case she was scared I was a creep. Then she took out her phone again and started watching Squid's videos.

I didn't bug until we were five minutes away from the station. I poked her hesitantly, and spoke up.
"Do you want to go behind the scenes of Insomnia like a intern of mine?" The reason behind it was partly because she was good at commentating, secondly, she reminded me slightly of Melanie when she was fine and talking to me.

She started bouncing in her seat and giggling excitedly while nodding her head. I couldn't wait to meet her, the real her.
