We drove at speed, following the ambulance that was taking my maddy from me. Dan was driving again and phil was trying to calm and comfort me but it wasnt working. I was frantic. What if she was so badly hurt she died!? What would i do then? It would be my fault, no james's fault and i seeked revenge. I breathed in and out, furious. Phil had hold of my hand and was calmly muttering something to me. I closed my eyes and counted to ten. My breaths were more even and my heart wasnt racing anymore. As i opened my eyes the hospital came into view. I undid my belt before we had stopped and dan quickly parked. I ran towards the ambulance and two people in uniform started taking maddy into the hospital. I could hear dan and phils footsteps getting louder. I ran through the doors, following maddy. They took her into a ward and into a room. Someone suddenly stopped me and i gasped. Tears were streaming down my face. They asked me something but i wasnt listening. I looked down, my eyes closed. I heard phil call my name and dan put his arm around me. I cried into his chest. Phil answered the nurse. I looked up and saw her nod. Phil whispered to me that we had to wait while maddy had an operation. I nodded, knowing i had no other choice. We walked towards the chairs and i slumped into phils chest. we waited about 45 minutes until someone came out and asked us some questions. I then had to fill out a form about maddy and if she was allergic to anything. I ticked the no box and finally signed at the bottom. They thanked me and said we could visit her in 5 minutes.
'Finally.' I said and stood up. We followed a nurse into her room. She looked broken and fragile. I gasped at a massive bandage around her head and a cast around her arm and one on her leg. She had a piece of fabric wrapped around her and her clothes in a pile on the chair next to her. Her eyes were both closed and she was almost as pale as phil. Her lips seemed a bright red. They slowly moved. I saw them say 'mark'. She repeated his name a couple of times before she finally slowly tried to open her eyes. They sleepily opened and she tried to sit up but someone lay her back down again.
'Maddy. Dont move, maddy, everythings ok. Im so sorry.' I whisper to her and her only response was mark. I nodded and her head fell back onto the pillow and her eyes snapped shut. I took a deep breath in, trying to stop the tears from falling.

A couple of days later and she had almost recovered, luckily. It was a Thursday when phil brought a lottery ticket. We were back at their flat and he was channel flicking and left it on the national lottery. We watched as the numbers 02, 12, 25, 27, 30 and 46 rolled out of the machine. I jumped up, the lottery ticket in my hand. The exact same numbers were on our lottery ticket. Dan excitedly phone the lottery people and 15 minutes later they had driven round to our house and delivered £8,525,000 to us, on a cheque. I gasped and thought that it wasn't real but dans screaming sounded so real.
We rang a couple of people and a day later had bought a mansion for us all to live in. Phil brought me a really cute and expensive red car and i drove home to see our parents and collect mine and maddys belongings. It took a whole day to pack and i had to face both mine and maddys parents shouting at me, telling me we shouldn't have ran off, before i drove back down to London to meet dan and phil. I called the person we had rented the flat from and told them i had left the keys in the flat. Phil made a couple of calls and their flat was up for rent within a day. We packed most of our stuff in dan and phils car and some in my car. They went straight to the mansion but i stopped at the hospital to pick up maddy and then drove for 5 hours across the country, to wales. I had grown up in wales and so was familiar with the hills and rain. We had our house on the edge of wales, quite near the beach. I drove up our path and through the gates. Dan and phil were already inside. I helped maddy out the car but luckily she only had her arm in plaster still. I knocked on the massive door and was greeted by dans cheerful grin. We walked through and most of the furniture was already there. I ran up the stairs and found phil lying a massive king sized bed, in a massive room with an en suite.
'Our room?' He asked and i eagerly nodded. Maddy decided to have the room opposite ours and dans was across the corridor from ours. We ran back and forth from the cars bringing luggage into our home. It took a couple of hours but we had completely unpacked and were all comfortable.
Within a week, we had ran erin and she had moved in with us as the mansion was so empty and big we needed a couple more people in it. She had found a new boyfriend and was dating red from yogcast. He seemed quite nice. They moved in straight away. We also were close friends with freya and her and dan quickly bonded. Maddy seemed quite sad and mopey. I knew she missed mark. Vidcon was coming up in a couple of months and she was clearly hoping he might be there. We were going with dan and phil and erin was going with her boyfriend. Freya was planning to go down to her family while we were away as it was her sisters 21st birthday. We called our friends libbie and aimee and hoped they would cheer maddy up but they didn't really help. They stayed with us for two weeks. Erin decided to then have a holiday and so went to france for a month and took red with her. Freya kept herself to herself but helped with the cooking and cleaning. Phil seemed quite happy. A month later and we had exciting news. I had visited the hospital as i had started being sick every morning and felt really ill. Turns out i was pregnant! We were all really excited and it was due two months after Vidcon. Nothing much happened after that.
8 months later...
It was the morning our flight left for vidcon. We were rushing around, quickly packing and dan drove maddy, phil and me down to the airport. We met erin there. We had two hours to spare. We ran through security and jetted off in our private plane. We had luxury service. I sat next to phil and maddy and dan sat on the isle next to us, erin and red behind us. We were served dinner and offered blankets. It took 7 hours altogether. We quickly got off the plane and felt the sudden heat bathe us. We were finally in America, marks country and i knew maddy wouod be looking for him. Within an hour, we had gotten off the minibus and were finding our rooms in the hotel. I shared one with phil and maddy shared with dan next door. Erin and red were across the corridor.
The bed was really comfy and we had our own telly and fridge. I opened it to find two bars of chocolate, champagne and a bowl of fruit. On top of the desk was a welcome note. It read: 'Phil! Thank you for coming and we hoped you arrived safely!'
We had a sudden knock at the door and maddy was standing there. She came into the room and helped me start unpacking. She picked out a dress and shoes for me to wear to dinner and then ran back along the corridor to get ready herself. I jumped in the shower and quickly dried my hair. Phil was washing his hair by the time i was ready. I had a sleeveless, tight, red, shiny dress on and gold high heels. I had a small purse over my shoulder and had tied my hair in a messy bun and added a bow at the front. I walked into the bathroom and phil gasped.
'You look absolutely stunning. And your mine.' He gasped and then pulled me into a soggy hug. I quickly pulled away and handed him a towel. He rolled his eyes. He chucked on a black suit and white shirt. He gave me a quick kiss on the head and grabbed my hand. I opened the door and knocked on maddys. She opened it and had her hair down, with elegant curls towards the bottom and a little black dress laced at the arms and ending mid above her knees. She also had pretty flat, sliver pumps on. She handed me her phone to put in my bag. I gently laughed at her. Dan was wearing similar to phil.
We walked down the long stairs. They had white railing all the way down and were carpeted. We slowly got to the bottom and I jumped from the second to last stair, forgetting I had high heels on. Phil quickly caught me and I gave him a quick kiss. We strode down a corridor towards the restaurant. We sat around a round table with a lilac table cloth. Lavender had been scattered across it. A waitress came over and I ordered spaghetti bolognese. Phil had a burger, Maddy had spaghetti also and dan had steak and chips. It was delicious. They had their first meet and greet the next day. We wondered back up to the room after dessert (chocolate fudge cake and ice cream) very tired. As soon as my head had hit the pillow, I was asleep.
The next day and Phil was awake before me. I sleepily yawned at him. He gently smiled back. He was dressed and ready for the day ahead. He had also got out clothes for me; my favourite jeans and white top. I zombie-like walked over to them and was dressed in 5 minutes. He held my hand as we again walked down the stairs. We quickly ate an all inclusive breakfast and left Maddy with Dan on a separate table. We wondered to the front desk and the lady behind it pointed us towards the crowds of fans. Just visible behind them was another building in which we had to sit and talk to our fans. Although maddy and i were not big on YouTube, we were allowed to sit with dan and phil as we were technically classed as youtubers. We fought our way through the crowds of people, body guards infront of us. Phils name was screamed amongst the crowd and i heard a couple of people call mine. I smiled a little to myself. I also caught snippets of people saying we were a cute couple and that you could see my bump. Only then i realised, phil was holding my hand. I also heard lots of people crying nasty remarks about us being a thing. It took a lot of pushing but we eventually managed to fight our way to the other side. We clambered through the door, exhausted already. It was a long room, with lots of desks and several chairs either side. I followed phil to his desk and sat behind it with him. I suddenly noticed one of the desks reflections of a window. It read markiplier. I stood abruptly up and rushed over to it. Mark was sat behind it. I gasped and he stood to give me a hug.
'I cant belive it! Maddy will be so happy! Shes been so worried about you. She really wants you two to stay in contact. ' I whispered and a lot of the other youtubers there, thought i was having a fangirl moment.
'Here, heres my number, incase i dont see maddy.' He whispered and scribbled some numbers down on a scrap bit of paper. I ripped a sheet of paper out of my notepad and wrote mine and maddys numbers down. I gave him a last quick hug and rushed back to phil as they were starting to open the doors. Maddy and dan rushed in seconds before it opened and i passed maddy marks number. She squeled and instead of talking to fans, tried to look for him. Dan whisper something to her and she quickly stopped looking. I gently pulled her away and took her over to him. Her smile was priceless. I left them alone and went back to dan and phil.
It was mad. People swarmed around us, people asking questions, people wanting selfies. I don't think ive talked so much in my life, let alone seen that many people. I dont know how dan and phil coped with the amount they got asked. I signed many books and clothing and phil handed out many signatures of his own. After about two hours someone brought round drinks and biscuits and we gladly had them. We didn't stop for lunch, but someone brought around a Sandwhich. After six hours we were exhausted. My hand killed and my throat was coarse.

It was almost dinner time by the time we got back to our rooms. We had had to fight our way through the thousands of people to get back. We quickly ate tea and fell asleep as soon as we stepped into our room. I wasnt going to enjoy waking up at 6 every morning for the next couple of weeks.

A couple of days after answering questions and talking to people and it was dan and phils big performance. They had to go on stage and they could do what ever. In the end they had planned to do a 'whos more likely to..'. Cat was going to go on stage and say the statements but she called in sick that morning. So lucky me and maddy had to go out in front of everyone and talk. Seconds before we were going on stage and people were checking the microphones and adding a quick last minute touch of blusher before dan and phil strolled onto the stage and gave a brief introduction.
I could tell maddy was nervous. Initially it had meant to be only me going on but i refused to do it without maddy, like the wuss i am. She wanted to do it even less than i did but we eventually talked her round it. I squeezed her hand and she gave an unsure smile back. Someone wispered to us 3,2,1 and the two boys on stage were pointing in our direction. We took a deep breath in and stepped out. We awkwardly smiled to the audience and climbed into the two stools on stage. We were sat between them, me nearest phil, maddy nearest dan. We both has ipads with a script-like structure on. I started.
'Whos more likely to die first in a zombie apocalypse?' I read.
They both held up each other. Maddy and i giggled to ourselves and rolled our eyes slightly as they had a slight argument about who it would be, eventually deciding phil would die.
'Whos more likely to fan girl over famous people?' Maddy asked. They both held up dan. They took a moment to explain a couple of fangirl moments they had both had and then i read the next one.
'Who is most likely to drop their phone down the toilet?' I giggled a little as they both held up dan.
Their sketch lasted for about 10 minutes and contained these whos more likely to's:
'Eat the other ones cereal?' Phil.
'Get arrested?' Dan.
'Fall asleep at 5 am?' Dan.
'Never reply to friends texts?' Dan.
'Win Britain's got talent?' Phil.
'Be scared at a horror film?' Dan.
'Buy an animal without the other one knowing?' Phil.
'Offend someone without meaning to?' Dan.
'Get lost and be without a GPS or sat nav?' Phil.
'Cry at a film?' Dan.
'Have their flyers undone without meaning to?' Phil.
We laughed all the way through and maddy lightened up a bit too. We waved to the audience and then exited through the side of the stage. We breathed a sigh of relief when we were off the stage. I was hugging maddy when she suddenly let go and ran past me. I turned to see mark. He had her in a tight grasp. I gently smiled and turned towards phil. He held both my hands and then spun me around so my arms were crossed but he was still holding me. I suddenly gave a yelp of pain and grabbed my stomach. I felt something wet down my legs. Maddy had rushed over to me, mark right behind her. My waters had broken. Great...
