My Hero[Discontinued]

Chapter 7

  (Your{Maggie} POV)

"Maggie, I was thinking. would you like to work with the offices?"  

"Duh. I've been waiting for you to ask me since you started it." Everyone cheered, quietly so they didn't disturb other people.

"Come on, guys. Let's go to my place." Adam says. We all leave the restaurant and get in our cars. 

In the car I just randomly say, "Shit."

"What?" Adam and Max ask.

"I forgot I need to upload a video to my channel, since I've been in the hospital."

"Just make a vlog telling everyone where you've been." Alesa suggested. As soon as she said that, I pull out my phone and start recording.

"Hey guys, it's GamerGirl223, aka Maggie, and today I just want to say I'm sorry I haven't uploaded in a week, or two. I don't remember. Anyway, I'm making this vlog because I have nothing to post, yet."

"Where were you?" Max shouted, looking through his phone.

I point the camera at Max."God Max, I was getting there."

"Get the camera out of my face,"he says, not looking up. I make a weird, kind of sassy look at him and turn the camera back on me. 

"Now, before everyone feels bad for me, I just want to say I'm fine, now. I was in the hospital, for personal reasons, and I haven't been able to work on videos. That will start to change, slowly, but surely. Other than being in the hospital, I have some more news."

"Don't tell them yet!" Adam says.

"Why?" I turn the camera on him.

"Won't you like to surprise your fans?"

"Yeah, sure. When's the surprise, Adam?"

"Next week?" Alesa asks.

"No. The eighteenth." Adam says. (2 days)

"Okay guys. Be sure to stay tuned on the eighteenth for another vlog. If you like these vlogs, 'and you're new to the channel, please click that like and subscribe button'."

"Hey!" Adam yells. I giggle.

"Leave any comments of your opinions on vlogs, like what I should do, or whatever, 'and until the next video, I appreciate your existence'."

"Ey!" Max yells.

"Guys, it's not a permanent thing. Anyway, I love you guys and you make my life just by watching my videos. It means the whole world to me that you guys appreciate my work. I love your faces and stay awesome." I stop the recording and pull up YouTube.

"Don't bother, Maggie. We're here." Max says. I get out of the car, then get Mason out and hand him to Alesa. Adam goes and unlocks the door and I run in.

"Computer?"

"I'll show you, follow me." Adam picks up my suit case and carries it up to my room as I follow. He sets the case down by the bed and I hug him.

"Thank you, Adam. You're the best brother I could have."

"I'm sure there's better-"

"No, Adam. You're the best." I hug him tighter until I feel a pop in my ribs.

"You alright, Mag?" I shake my head and sit on the bed. 

"Alesa! Get an ice pack and bring it upstairs, please!" After a minute, Max comes up with the ice pack in hand.

"Alesa was busy with Mason." Max looks at me. "What happened?" He hands me the pack.

"I-" I couldn't breathe. I lay down and Adam explains.

"She popped her ribs." He sits next to me and Max stays standing in the doorway. I look at Adam quickly glare at Max, then the doorbell rang. "I'll get it.. Max, stay here." Adam stops by Max and whispers something, then heads out of the room. Max sits on the bed next to me, where Adam was sitting.

A few seconds later, I hear John, Michael, and Ross say hi to Adam and ask where I was. I barely hear him say, "She's getting comfortable in her room." Then they ask where Max was. "Bathroom."

"God, he couldn't be worse at lying." Max whispers. We laugh, as quiet as we could, and, somehow, my ribs stopped hurting. I get up and grab my USB cord from my suit case pocket and turn on the computer. I plug the USB in and plug my phone to it.

"You should probably head down to help Adam's lie." I whisper. He grabs my shoulder for a second and walks out. I smile and get up to grab my journal, that not even Adam knows about.

 I write: I start to like Max more and more every day, now. I can't stop smiling when he's around. I can't believe I feel like this, though. I've never felt like this about any guy, ever!

I close the journal and put it back. I get back on the computer and sign into YouTube. I start to upload when someone covers my mouth from behind. I start screaming through the hand. After a couple of minutes screaming, ignoring the pain of my ribs, the mysterious person lets go and I hear a thump. I turn around, slowly, and see Max and John holding down the  hooded guy and Adam standing in the doorway, shocked, with Alesa behind him, on the phone with the cops. I get up and walk to the man, stopping at his side. "Hey there, princess."
