I waved to the camera, adding the words; 'And don't forget to vote for me to win the meet and greet with one direction. You can just vote on the link below.' I pointed to the bottom. 'Byeeee'. And then Veronique turned the camera off. Veronique is like my best friend for almost 5 years now. She goes to school with me. And we kind of have the same interests. One direction of course. 'Pffff, that was hard,I wanted to laugh the whole time' I said, and then i bursted into laughing. 'Lisanne, you're hilarious' Fleur said. Veronique and Fleur then joined me and started laughing too. Fleur was also my best friend. I guess you could say that the three of us were inseparable. It was only like two days left to vote. I was very scared and tensed. All I wanted was win. That was actually why I started making the videos the first place. Only hoping that I would get lots and lots of subscribers and become a famous youtuber and meet Harry Styles. I laughed at the thought of that. I was so stupid. It was like 4 months ago we uploaded the first video. Before this whole competition started three weeks ago I actually forgot about that. It was just fun to make the videos and have a laugh with my friends. Filming wherever we went and always writing down the jokes we made or heard. It was now a part of our lives. 

After Veronique and Fleur left I edited the video and posted it. After posting a tweet that i uploaded a new video, I went checking the number of subscribers I had. 'AAAA-..' I could held the scream in a little bit. But not good enough. 'What's wrong?' my dad called from downstairs. Always so protective. He could never let me alone or grow up. But he meant it in a good way i guess. 'I GOT OVER 3K SUBSCRIBERS DAD!' I yelled at him. He just mumbled something. It didn't surprise me. He was never very interested in all the youtube things I talked about. But I was getting a little bit famous now.Which made me happy. 'What does 3K mean?' my 5-year old cute little brother Ryan asked when he came walking in my room. 'It means I have 3000 people who want to see our videos, and that's also because of you. You have a lot of fans you know.' I picked him up and put him on my lap. We watched my last uploaded video together. He didn't understand it. Because he couldn't understand or speak English. I explained to him that this was the last attempt to get people to vote for me to win. 'And then you are going to get married?' he asked. I laughed. Throwing him on the ground. Which he found funny so he started to wrestle with me. 'Of course not. Then I will just meet them.' I said to him. 'Let's just hope' I whispered. 'What?' 'No, nothing. Go to sleep now Ryan, it is way past your bedtime!' He listened to me. I smiled as he left the room but turned around to get a hug. I also went to sleep, after I voted like maybe 20 times for myself to win. Wouldn't mind if I helped myself a little would it?

A/N: The story takes place in the Netherlands so when they talk to each other they speak Dutch but I type it in English so everyone understands. Also Lisanne, Fleur and Veronique are all 17 years old.
