Someone | Trevor Moran

Chapter 4

The Tweet

I feel a push on my arm and my eyes flutter open!
"Good morning sleepy head!" Its Melanie, I guess we're back. I quickly shake myself awake and thank them both for the trip.
My room is the first thing on my mind as I enter the house. Slowly I walk up the stairs and turn on my laptop.
Of course I check my YouTube stats first, and I get a pleasant surprise.
"Oh my god!" I say to myself. The video I posted has 20,000 views and counting -which is a lot more then I usually get- this is so weird you don't go up from 1000 views that quickly.
Everything starts to make sense when I log into Twitter and notice Trevor Moran himself has mentioned my account in a tweet.
My heart is pounding so hard I think it might burst!
Apparently I made a lot more noise then I thought because my father walks in the room.
"Are you okay hon-" he starts but I cut him off.
"Trevor Moran tweeted about my YouTube account and I just got 20,000 views and more subscribers!" I yell without taking time to breathe. So my dad doesn't try to make conversation instead he hugs me with a warm embrace. We stand in silence for a while, so I can take in everything that has happened.
Later I show him the tweets, my account, and he proudly walks away to tell my mother, who also comes to congratulate me. Everything goes by so quickly I'm still having a hard time believing it all!
After I calm my nerves I realize that I have to thank Trevor for the compliments and praise he gave me.
It takes me a moment but I finally find the words to say.
I open up the tab to direct message him and start to right.

"Hi Trevor, I'd like to thank you for your tweet about my YouTube account, it really helped and made me feel great! You are my favourite Youtuber"

I reread the message multiple times, edited and made sure it was perfect.
Send!
I only have to wait a few minutes for a response.

"Hey Raelynn, really it was no big deal! You have a beautiful voice and I thought you needed some recognition!"

My cheeks warm up as I read and the butterflies in my stomach dance. I begin to type again.

"You have no idea how happy this makes me you are literally my idol!"

I hope I didn't come off as to much of a Fangirl!

"Wow! Thanks, it feels nice to get looked up to. Sorry I have to go its getting late maybe we can talk again some time! Goodnight :)"

I'm Fangirling so much right now!

"Sounds great! Bye!"

Send!
I look over at my clock and realize its 10:30 already. Its still rather early for me but I'm exhausted.
Half asleep I grab a pair of yoga shorts and a tank top. I put them on and crawl into bed thinking about how great the day was.
Ah! :)

The next morning I wake up earlier then I intended, but I'm still shaking from last nights news.
My phone is lit up by all the notifications I receive. Congratulatory texts, YouTube likes, comments, Tweets, everything.
As I check the comments in the video, my phone begins to vibrate.
It's Melanie.
"Oh my god! I can't believe you didn't tell me!" She screams into her phone.
"Well good morning to you too!" Sarcasm overflowing from my lips.
"Don't try to dance aound the subject! I can't believe you didn't tell me about Trevor's tweet!"
"I know! I was so happy!" I boast.
"Have you thanked him?" She sounds very concerned.
"Of course I have!" I get quieter "We texted!"
"YOU HAVE HIS NUMBER?"
"Well... No but we direct messaged on Twitter" I'm a little embarrassed. But I basically texted him, right?
"That's a good start!" You can hear the disappointment in her voice. "What did he say?"
"He said I have a beautiful voice, and then he had the go!" I say sadly. "But he said we should talk again!"
We both share an excited screech.
"That's amazing! You're so lucky!"
"I can't believe he took the time to look at my video!"
There's a pause in the conversation, but not an awkward one. It's like we're both playing the moment over in our head, even if she wasn't there.
"You should come over" Finally a break in the silence.
"That sound like a great idea. What time works for you?" So polite! :)
"Give me an hour and a half"
"Okay I'll see you then!"
The phone hangs up!
