My glasses slowly fog up as I take the first sip of my cup of tea. There's not quite enough milk in this lot, but there isn't a lot I can do about it, because we're out of milk, and it's also 3am. Twitter isn't very interesting at this time of night, but I woke up from a nightmare, and Hazel is out like a log in her room, leaving me with not a lot to do. Thankfully, however, most of my American friends are online right now. Tessa's tweet advertising her latest video pops up, which I click on, and it's beautiful as per always. It's amazing to think about the fact that I've spent a good portion of my life looking up to various people on youtube, and now I'm actually good friends with some of them. It's amazing - oh, speaking of, here's a mention from Jon, which was unexpected. Oh. It's about the video that went up last night. I popped up in the end of the video for the song he did with Grace, and a fair few comments were saying things like 'I wasn't expecting Dodie at the end but I'm not mad about it tbh' and 'Dodie!!!!' basically praising a ten second outro i briefly appeared in, which puzzles me. Jon's tweet reads:

@doddleoddle you're literally in the end of the vid for ten secs and the comments are FLOODED with 'why aren't dodie and jon dating'

I smile to myself quietly, and type out a quick five letter reply:

'@JonCozart yikes'

Immediately, replies to this tweet pop up from several people, all along the same lines:

'@doddleoddle @joncozart valid question'

'@doddleoddle @joncozart yeah dodie, why not'

And for some reason, it prompts me to think about it. Normally, I'd dismiss this stuff, as is being the life of an internet personality youtuber social media influencer whatever. The most obvious factor being the long distance of course - him being in LA, me being in London. It's impossible. And long distance is super hard. Second off, he's a friend. Third, I'm not romantically attracted to him, fourth, I don't think he is attracted to me like that either. Which honestly, makes life convenient, because I happen to be headed off tomorrow to LA to be in Youtubers React, and I'm staying at Jon's apartment. Things would be on the awkward side if there was that amount of sexual tension between us.

*Jon's P.o.v.*

Is it just me, or are there ridiculous amounts of sexual tension between Dodie and I? I mean, come on. Look at her. Every time she comes to L.A. she stays with me, she chooses me of all her american friends, and now i'm in a situation where it's hard to not kiss her in the middle of a sentence. We filmed this song of hers called 'Human' last time she was here, and I barely looked at her the entire time, because that song is incredible and when I think about how incredible she is, I want to kiss her. I want to kiss her all the time, goddamnit. The comment section on my videos is very interesting to say the least, particularly this one. Between the Harambe comments, self-promo and the republicans going bat shit over basically nothing, there are those who ship us. I must say, the most relatable comment I've seen so far on the subject is:

'I will go down with this ship!' So will I, barretmclemore17. So will i.

I like Dodie. I really do. And it's probably a very one sided thing, but I can't help it. She's coming back over to LA tomorrow for about a week, and I don't know how I'm going to survive without accidentally fucking everything up. I've bought ridiculous amounts of candy to eat my feelings and I have a lot of pizza vouchers so I can fill the void in my soul with carbs. Oh, jesus.

I'm so not ready for this week.

Bring it on.

Surprise! I had writers' block for Amateur so here's the first chapter of Intertwined, ready to go! I'm going to try to write both books at the same time, but Amateur will likely get updated more often due to the fact that if I don't persist on it now, I'll completely abandon it and won't finish it. And we don't want that. 

So, I hope you guys liked the first chapter of Intertwined, and let me know what you think so far down in the comments!

Thank you for reading!!!! See you on an upcoming Amateur chapter!
