Book 2 of the "As Long As You Can Reach Me!" Book series!
I was in the middle of putting my leave in conditioner in when Maddie knocked on my room door.
"Come in!" I yelled.
"Hey, Lizzie?" Maddie asked.
"Yeah?" I replied shaking out my hair.
"I'm going to the town carnival. You in?" She said sending a snapchat to someone.
"Can't." I said grabbing and plugging in my blow dryer. "I'm going to Oli's with Joel."
Maddie sighed. "Right. You two are like glue! Maybe later!" She nodded and walked out. I felt bad, but I already had plans.
My phone started to buzz while I was blow drying my hair. I used my right hand to grab it. It was Oli.
"Hello?" I said.
"Hey, Lizzie!" Oli's familiar voice.
"Hi Oli!" I laughed.
"Well, Lizzie, I'm going to do a collab with Joel, but I heard your coming too. Want to join in?" Oli asked me. Of course I would!
"Yeah, definitely!" I replied.
"SeaPeeKay wants to join in. He's gonna do it too. Are you still good?" He asked again.
"Nah, I don't like him." I joked.
"Aww, but Lizzie!" Oli pouted. I loved his sense of humor.
"If I'm wanted, I suppose I can come. I'll be over soon!" I said and hung up giggling. Now, to finish my hair.

"Sup my Olipops! Oli here, and I'm here with a few friends of mine. Say hi, everyone!" Oli exclaimed, starting his into.
"Hi everybody!" We all yelled at the same time. I started to jump up an down.
"Today's theme is... Dinosaur Cake! Which is an interesting decision made by the-"
"Yayyyyyy." I said out loud into my mic.
"So let's hop right in to the Jurassic era!" Oli yelled and we all started to run to the starting teleported.
"Are you ready Oli, to enter the Jurassic era?" Joel asked.
"Joel! You can't let the dinosaurs eat me!" I laughed as I jumped on his head.
"Don't worry Oli! I mean, Lizzie!" Joel said laughing.
"Am I not important any more! Do I mean nothing, as your girlfriend!" I huffed.
"No! It's just that I was talking to Oli before." Joel explained.
"Oh. Okay!" I smiled.
"Mine looks absolutely terrifying. If you saw mine, you would be scared." I admitted laughing as I added on the eyes.
"I've missed! Oh boy, mine looks...um...yeah." Oli said. I stared to wonder what had happened.
"Jump around. Whoop whoop!" Me Joel and Callum sang as we jumped at the end of Oli's video. He started to laugh.
"Well, that was fun." Callum said sarcastically since he lost badly.
"Don't be a bad sport!" Oli said sarcastically, and ran in circles around SeaPeeKay. Me and Joel secretly set the theme to "SeaPeeSound" for the next round. They didn't notice until we actually started the game.
"Did you do that!?" Oli yelled.
"Yes!" Me and Joel both said and laughed.

"Thanks Oli!" Joel said waves goodbye.
"Bye Oli. Thanks!" I yelled and closed the door. I nudged my head into his warm chest. He smiled, and kissed the top of my head. We had been dating for at least 3 months now. I was so happy being with him. It made me happier then I ever was, and everything around me was showing it! I had more fans than ever, Maddie was sweeter, Oli was funnier, and everything just seemed better!
"I bet that the video will be posted by tomorrow night." Joel agreed. I nodded. Oli was very fast about editing and posting. You know what, he was probably editing right now!
I walked down Oli's path and into Joel's black car. I sat in the passenger seat. I pulled down the mirror so I could fix my hair that was all static-y now.
"Ready?" He asked, putting his keys into the little slot.
"Yup!" I said and put the mirror away. We backed out off Oli's driveway, and started to head back to my house.
Bing!
It was the alert sound I have for snapchat. It was from Maddie. I opened it up.

She wrote in the private chat,
"Wishing you were here! Having a blast with London!" London was her best friend, and they looked identical! It was funny, really.
"Oh! Are you up for going to the town carnival?" Joel asked me, turning.
I smiled.
"That makes two people happy to hear that!" I laughed as we started to head towards the carnival.
