Sqampy : The True Story

Beth

Stacy was so easy to talk to! We were sat in a fancy restaurant with a bunch of other YouTubers. I was sat in between Stampy and Stacy. Squid was on Stampy's other side, Ash next to him. Opposite were Netty, Amy, Salem, Tom and Mini Muka. I was getting along well with everyone but I was still quite nervous.

She was the best friend I never had.

Stampy was talking to Squid about a new thing he was starting called Wonder Quest. It was an educational children's Minecraft series. I personally thought that it would go really well. Stampy had told me about it on the train. Ever since he started playing Minecraft, he saw the potential for it to be educational. Now, several years on, his idea was becoming a reality. I was so glad to be able to be with him on this amazing journey.

"Friendship is magic!" Amy laughed at Salem. Netty collapsed on giggles and I couldn't help but hold back a smile at Stacy's blank face.

"It's My Little Pony..." I said, still laughing.

"I never played with them." She said.

"Really?" I loved My Little Ponies when I was little. I still did now. She shrugged. I didn't question her anymore.

Eventually, the food arrived. I had ordered a fancy pasta thing and Stacy had the vegetarian version of mine. Stampy and Squid got a pizza.

We all talked and I felt like I fitted in, much more than I had in a long time. Everyone was really nice and Stacy was so easy to talk to.

Once we'd eaten our meals, we all headed back to our separate hotels so that we could get a good nights sleep before Minecon in the morning. Stampy and I said goodbye to everyone and walked ten minutes back to the hotel. We took the elevator to our floor and found our room again.

We chatted randomly as Stampy made us a cup of tea each.

"Was everything okay?" He asked worriedly.

"Yeah. Everyone was so nice." I admitted truthfully. We laughed a bit and talked about them. They were Stampy's friends but they were already starting to feel like mine too. It amazed me on how quickly they were beginning to accept me.
