My Wonderful Life

Chapter 7.

"Destiny? sweetie? you need to get up. you've got company." grandma said, i rolled over and looked at the clock, 8 am. uuuugh, i groaned. this was supposed to be the day i sleep in and be lazy, but no, i've got company.  Walking down the stairs i expected to see Connor standing at the door wanting to go running or something, but where he'd usually be, no one was there. i turned the corner and went into the living room, "ABBEY?!" "DESTINY! hey!" it was Abbey, a friend from home, i was extremely surprised to see her sitting in the living room of my grandmothers house. "what are you doing here?" i asked, "im here to see you, silly. Its been too long and we haven't talked all break! i missed you!" she said hugging me, "we have  a lot to talk about." i said to her, "oh trust me, i know."

"So tell me, whats been going on in your life since school ended?" i asked, "well, iv'e reached 2,000 followers on tumblr, i managed to stay up for 26 hours, voluntarily, and... well thats pretty much it. Pretty eventful, i know." she said. "What about you?" "actually, i met someone.. well, re-met someone.." "what? i'm confused" "theres this guy, Connor, i knew him when i was little, we were like bestfriends. He stopped by and we've been hanging out a little bit, went on a movie date, i found out hes a youtu-" "WAIT. youtuber? Connor? oh my god. are you taking about Connor Franta?" she interrupted, "Yeah, you know who he is? how come i didnt know this?" "because you're not all into the internet as i am, but anyways, CONNOR FRANTA? Connor freaking Franta? you've been hanging out with a guy i've pictured myself marrying for about a year now. I've got dibs." she said, i felt myself growing jealous, i dont know why, i guess because in my head, i had dibs, obviously. "No you can't have dibs, besides, i've already kissed him.." i said, hesitantly. "YOU WHAT?! Destiny, you could be famous if you date him.. do it!" she replied. "1. im not going to use him for his fame, 2. The hate i would get is unimaginable, i dont want to go through that." i said "You're right, but seriously, how often does an opportunity like this come up? to date a famous youtuber, hang out with his famous friends, go to cool parties, live the life. Girl, go for it!" she told me.

After i thought about it, dating Connor wouldn't be such a bad thing, i would just have to ignore what people thought of me and look at the positive, it won't be that hard.. right? I mean, I'm sure Connor has come across his fair share of haters, and he's pushed through it, he's probably the happiest person i know from what i can tell. If his fans really loved him then they would love the people he loves too, the ones he cares about, the people who mean a lot to him, hmmm, maybe i'm one of those people?

"Alright, i'll give him a chance.. a real chance.. a serious relationship like chance." i said, "YES! i want this to happen so bad, i ship it!" she exclaimed. "Well.. what are you waiting for? call him!" so i did. "hey Connor? i uh.. i was wondering if maybe you'd like to hangout later, possibly. if you're not busy or anything." i said nervously. "Really? alright, i'll see you then. bye" I said smiling. "You need to get ready" Abbey said, "I'm not going to see him for like another.. 10 hours." "Yeah we need to get started.." she laughed. But we just chilled, caught up with eachother, and talked a lot until about 4:15pm, i decided i should start to get ready because knowing me i'll take forever and procrastinate. We were going to dinner then on to a little event at a park, some cultural thing, it won't be too awkward and it ought to be interesting, which is good because it'll spark up a conversation. The outfit i decided on was a simple mid-thigh length black dress with lace 3/4 sleeves. After long deliberation i chose to curl my hair (which rarely happens because it takes way too long to do and is very frustrating with hair like mine).

It was getting closer to 6 o' clock and Abbey was freaking out more than me, which wasn't too shocking, she was a pretty big fangirl and i know how bad she wated to meet him. "wow calm down," i said "I'm the one who is supposed to be having the nervous break-down, not you." i laughed. "Sorry, i've never met a youtuber before, let alone one i fangirl over on a daily basis." she replied. *ding dong* the doorbell rang, our eyes got big and i got up, getting a nod of approval from Abbey on how i looked, and i walked over to the door and we both took a deep breath in.
