Chasing Summer [Chasing Series Book 1]

Going Viral...Sorta

Maisie's P.O.V

The next morning, I'm laying with Sam in her bed- she has a queen size and it's easier for us to share- while Christine sleeps in Nicola's room.

I'm scrolling through my computer, looking at emails, texts, and social media. I log onto to YouTube, when suddenly my notifications go crazy, the subscriber number climbing and the video being shared more than I have ever seen. As I grab Sam by the arm, and look over to her to see her expression the same as mine, our phones light up, Twitter notifications blowing up our screens. We hear footsteps running down the hall, the door opens and Chris and Nic burst into the room.

"Are you guys seeing what's happening?" Christine asks, slightly out of breath.

"You should see our YouTube!" I reply.

"Why? What's happened?" Samantha asks.

"We have almost 12,000 subscribers! Guys that's over double of what we had before the video!" I say, now we're all getting excited.

"How many followers do we have on Twitter?" I ask, curious after seeing tee jump in subscribers, "20.3k...this is nuts. How did this one video get us so many people?" I wonder aloud.

"Who knows...maybe we should look at the comments, to see what everyone thinks," Samantha suggests. We all agree, and I scroll down to the comments section and begin reading them out.

"@/5SOSbb- Omg I LOVE this song!!"

"@/Riley247- They did such a good job omg"

"@/OneDieection5eva- Brb crying "

"@SavvySav- I want to be their friends"

"@/PhantomsLover- Can I join the band plz???"

All of our jaws drop open, the more and more we read, all we saw were good and positive comments. It didn't look like anyone was hating on us or the video.

This is crazy.

"You know, I've been seeing a lot of comments asking us to do a Q and A video," Nicola observed.

"Maybe we should! It could be fun, and that could answer a lot of questions, maybe even bring more people," Chris said, she had a good point, with this many people we have to do something.

"We can do it next weekend, since we will be on Thanksgiving break," I stated.

"Yeah, that's probably the best idea," Nicola agrees.

"I'm going to tweet out a thank you and say we will make a video to be put out next week," Samantha says, as she pulls up Twitter on her phone.

"@/ThreeFourths : Thank you to all of our new friends! We are so proud of the video we put out and are so happy with the response...will be posting a new vid next week! -Sam :))"
