"O...O...Oh my god, this isn't happening, am I alive, is this for real?" I say gently.
"She's definitely delusional Zoë." Alfie said in a serious yet joking tone.
"Alfie shut up, she's just woken up from being passed out, not being delusional!" Zoe says.
"Sweetie, I'm Zoe and this is Alfie are you alone?" Zoe continues to say.
"I'm not alone, well I am, well I'm not technically, well I gue...." I say in a nervous stutter.
"Ok, your alone right now, but you live here with someone, like a sibling, let's say your younger sister?" Alfie says.
"Oh lord you got it in one, nice!" I say, I was surprised does he know me or something?
"Your Eva Benson right, me and Zoe love your videos!"
"You have got to be kidding me, and yes I am, and what the hell, people like you, watching people like me?!"
"Sweetie, Eva, you have 100k, that's quite big, me and Alfie seem bigger, but we aren't really!"
"Well to me, 11 million is like space, so far away, and so big, Zoe, Alfie, I love you both!"
"Aw thanks Eva!" Zoe and Alfie say at the same time.
"Hey wanna go to Starbucks, Eva, Zoe you in?"
"Sure!" Me and Zoe say at the same time.
***In Starbucks***
We walk through the door, and surprisingly it was empty, apart from full time workers trying to do their work, and the baristas.

Me and Zoe go to sit down whilst Alfie orders the drinks, I'm fangirling hard right now!

"Geee, so this is what it's like to be famous, empty coffee houses, haha!" I say, that was so stupid, she is gonna hate me!
"Haha, I wish Eva! I love being famous don't get me wrong, but with my anxiety, sometimes, with everyone crowded around me, I loose it!"
"Aw, if you ever need me or need me to get you out of a situation, I'm only own phone call away!" I say, trying to reassure Zoe.

As I give her my phone number she starts sobbing, she seems really upset, she tries to make her tears unnoticeable but I know that she's crying.

"Omg Zoe! I didn't do anything did it? Omg I should go! I'm ruining things already!" I say upset, I must've said something!
"No! Eva, it's not you! You haven't don't anything sweetie!"
"Zoe what is it? Tell me I can keep anything a secret!"
"It's me and Alfie!"
"Omg what about you two, are you ok?"
"That's the thing, our relationship is rough, we have been fighting so much lately!"
"What's a relationship without those little fights Zoe!"
"Not just little Eva! Waking out the house, slamming doors, breaking things!"
"Do you think you and Alfie will be ok?"
"No, but I'm scared that if I say something, and we break up, then the social media platforms headlines will be full of "ZALFIE BROKE UP, what did Zoe do? Read to find out!"!!"
"So what you telling me is, 11 million subscribers Zoella, versus PointlessBlogs subscribers?!"
"Not just his, everyone's, my life would be over!"
Just at that moment Marcus walked in!
"Marcus!"
"Zoe!"
"Marcus, meet Eva Benson!" Zoe introduced me to Marcus Butler!
"Hellooooo Eva!"
"Hey Marcus!"
Marcus went to sit next to Zoe when Alfie came over...
"Oi Marky shift it, she's my girlfriend mate!"
"Alright man back off, Alfie calm down we are friends!"
"Alfie stop!" Zoe said.
"Zoe keep out of this!" Alfie screamed.
"KEEP IT DOWN OR WE WILL CHUCK YOU OUT OF HERE!" The Starbucks manager screamed at us!
Zoe ran out crying, Marcus ran after her.
"Um excuse me Alfie!" I said.
"What Eva?!"
"What is with you?"
"Me? Nothing!"
"Phhh..."
Alfie moved closer to me, this was a problem.
"I'm sorry Eva, is just me and Zoe have been fighting a lot!"
"I'm so sorry to hear!" I feel so two-faced saying this!
"I need someone else, Zoe is getting boring for me, there is no fun in our relationship anymore!"
"I know how you feel, my boyfriend was like this! But Zoe loves you!"
"I love her, but I feel secret feelings for someone else!"
"Yeah like who Alfie?"
"It wouldn't be a secret if I shared it now would it!"
"Hehe."
"Say Eva, wanna have drinks tonight, I mean you are 19 right, you can drink?"
"Sure, meet me at my place at 6pm, my sister will be there but I'm sure she won't mind having you here!"
