Wait... Adopted By YouTubers? (A Syndicate/Tom Cassell Fanfic)

Chapter 3

*This has been republished because of an error in viewing it, sorry guys*

I'm so freaking tired. I stayed up wayyy to late. Damn Syndicate and his cuteness. Wait. Don't Tucker and Sonja know him? Yes. They do! Oh my god! Is that one of the friends that's supposed to be coming over? I hope so.

I get up and walk into the living room, my ugly morning bed-head and all. Not paying attention to anything, I plop down onto the couch and yawn loudly. What I didn't know was that there was already someone in this seat. "Ow!" I heard a male voice with a weird accent exclaim.

"Sorry! Sorry!" I say and turn around to see who I sat on. No. I must be hallucinating. I did not just sit on Tom Cassell. Holy crap. I did.
"S'okay. You must be Lee, then?" he asked.
"Uh. Yeah. That's me. Pardon my ugly bed-head." I state.
"No worries, love. You look perfect to me," he says. I'm blushing. I know it. Damn you, Syndicate.

Tom's POV (yes, I will be switching POV's)

Here I am, sitting on the couch, just minding my business, when this girl just walks in and sits on me! She gets up off of me and turns around to apologize. Once I get a good look at her face, I realize that she's the girl in the picture that Tucker showed me earlier, when he was telling me who they adopted. I say, "S'okay. You must be Lee, then?"
"Uh. Yeah. That's me. Pardon my ugly bed-head," she says.
"No worries, love. You look perfect to me," I reply. She started to blush profusely; her face was as red as a tomato. "Let me introduce myself. I'm Tom Cassell, aka TheSyndicateProject."
"Yeah. I know who you are," she says. "How could I not?"
"Point well made, considering who you live with," I reply with a laugh.
"They had nothing to do with it, actually. I started watching your channel when I was 14," she states.
"Really? Wow. That's what I call dedication."

I heard a cough from across the room. Shit. I forgot that Tucker, Sonja, and Jordan were in the room. "Hey, Tom," Tucker says laughing, "while you were busy flirting with my daughter, you seem to have forgotten we were here." I saw Sonja and Jordan snickering off to the side. Well, she should probably introduce herself to Jordan.

Lee's POV

I just noticed the other guy in the room. It took me a minute, since my 'dad' just said Tom was flirting with me. I walk over and introduce myself. "Hi, my name's Lee, but I'm sure you figured that out by now."
"Yeah. I'm Jordan Maron, aka CaptainSparklez, nice to meet you, Lee." Jordan says.
"Likewise, friend," I reply. I turn to everyone else. "What do you guys want to do now that we know each other?"

Tom just shouts, "ROCKBAND!" He earns a chorus of "Yeah"s and "Sounds good"s.

*Time skip to after it's set up*

Tom ended up on guitar, Tucker on drums, Jordan on bass, and Sonja and I singing, taking turns. They choose the first song, and Sonja goes first. I sit and listen to her sing. Dang. How can I compete with her? She's an amazing singer. Meh. It's whatever. The song ends, and Sonja passes the mic to me. Welp. Here goes nothing. The song starts to play and I begin to sing. As the song ends, I look around. I see Tom staring at me, open-mouthed. I wonder what his problem is. Tucker, Sonja, and Jordan start to tell me how great of a singer I was, but I just shrug their compliments off. Whatever.

Tom's POV

The song ends, and I notice Lee looking around. I thought Sonja was a good singer, but Lee has her beat by tons. I just stand and gape at her. Wow. She's gorgeous, and she can sing. Can she get any better? I don't think so. But we'll see. We continue playing Rockband for about another hour or so. I sit down on the couch next to her, and we just sit and talk. I check the time and see that I need to leave so I can get home and record. "Hey Lee, I've gotta go so I can record some videos. How about you give me your number so I can text you sometime?"

"Um sure," she says nonchalantly. "Give me your phone so I can put it in your contacts." I hand her my phone and watch her put it in. "Here ya go," she says as she hands it back to me. I look at her name in my contacts. I see that she put it as 'Lee ;)'. I smile as I put my phone in my pocket.
"Alright then. See you guys later," I say to everyone in the room.

Lee's POV

I watch as Tom leaves the room and exits the house. I'm kinda sad to see him go. I look over to see Tucker and Sonja staring at me. "Why are you looking at me?" I ask.
"You have a crush on Tom!" Sonja squeals. I start blushing as Tucker and Jordan start laughing.
"Shut up guys, it's nothing," I retort. Jordan chuckles.
"I think it's cute," he says.
"Whatever, Jordy," I say, sticking my tongue out at him.
"Ugh. Please no, don't. I hope that nickname doesn't stick. It's awful," he says, grimacing.
"Nice. That's what I'm gonna call you from now on," I say, laughing. He groans and covers his face.
"Anyways guys, I better get going too. Nice meeting you, Lee. See ya later," he says, and walks out the door, waving.
"See ya, Jordy!" I call after him with a grin on my face. This was an eventful day. I go to my room, post a video that I recorded to my channel, and pass out on my bed, dreaming of Tom.
