"Bree, calm down. What happened?" Sean said trying to calm me down. How can I be calm because in this exact moment my phone could be anywhere.

"Yesterday I accidentally bumped into this guy and our stuff fell everywhere and we picked it up but when I got home I realized I grabbed his phone instead, meaning that he has mine." I pace back in fourth in my room.

"Well have you tried calling your phone?" No Sean, I haven't called my phone because I want it to be lost.

"YES! I've tried everything and he hasn't answered. I'm not sure what to do, my whole life is on that phone."

"Well, just wait and see if he ca-" he gets cut off by my, well, Hunter's phone going off.

I frantically grab the phone from my desk and accept the call, not bothering to check the ID number.

"Hey, Hunter?" I ask hopefully. You can tell I'm freaking out because of my voice.

"Now why would I call Hunters phone if I was Hunter?" A deep voice, that is certainly not Hunter, asks.

I sigh. "This isn't Hunter and I'm not sure where he is."

"Well, might I ask, who are you?" His voice goes soft. "My name is Aubree Bennett, and you are?"

"Blake Gray, Hunters bestfriend. Now why do you have his phone?" He questions. Well if they were bestfriends wouldn't he know where Hunter was?

"It's a long story. Do you know where I can get in contact with Hunter? I've called my phone a thousand times but he hasn't answered. Do you know where he could be?"

"Actually, yes-" before he could say anymore I cut him off, "Great! Where is he?" That probably sounded extremely weird but I don't care at this point.

"Well I don't know where he is at the moment but I know what he is doing and you might be able to contact him from there."

A wave of relief goes over me. I might actually be able to get my phone back. Praise the Gods.

I stay silent so Blake can talk.

"Do you know what YouNow is?" He asks. "You- what?" Confusion is plastered on my face and Sean only laughs at me, I throw a pillow at him and he stops laughing causing me to snicker.

"It's an app where you can do these live broadcast things. Anyway, google it on your computer, create and account and search Hunter Rowland. You should see what to do from there." He tells me.

"Okay well thanks for the information." I sit back in my chair, my heart beat slows down a bit and I can feel my headache go away.

"No problem, oh and Aubree?" He asks. "Yeah?"

"Your phone is safe, trust me, Hunter isn't the type to snoop, so don't worry. If anything he is trying to get in contact with you as much as you are with him." He assures me.

I sigh in relief, that's good to know. "Thanks, I better go now though, goodbye Blake." "Goodbye Aubree."

Then the phone call is disconnected and everything goes silent.

"Well?" Sean asks. "I know how to get my phone back." After those words escape my mouth I frantically open my laptop and type in the words YouNow.

I do what Blake said and I create an account.

*And at this moment, Aubree did not know, her life was about to flip over*

"What is that?" Sean asks while looking over my shoulder. "I don't know exactly. Blake said it was some type of live broadcasting thing and he said I will be able to find Hunter here."

I look on the website for a search bar, when I find it I type the words 'Hunter Rowland' and wait for his name to pop up.

Once the website refreshes a whole bunch of names pop up on my screen.

At the very top there is one with Hunter Rowland. Below is more accounts that have his name in the user.

I click on the first one. It takes me to a profile. I examine everything I can see, his picture is the profile picture and the description fits him perfectly.

"Now what?" He asks. I shrug my shoulders and continue to look at his account.

When I see the follower count he has, I almost jump out of my chair.

"Sean look at this" I point to the screen. It says that Hunter has over 700k followers.

"Woah. That's insane." He takes the words right out of my mouth. How come I've never heard of this app before?

I look over to the left of the screen where it says that he's live.

I click on the button and it takes me to a video. Except it's, live.

All of a sudden Hunters face pops up on the screen, you can tell it's him because who wouldn't remember those eyes.

"That's him?" Sean asks. "Yep." I reply. I look below and see comments flowing in. I try to read one but the go by to fast.

"He's famous." I blurt. "Yeah no kidding."

Hunter just stares blankly at the screen. I decide to comment.

aubreebennett: Hunter, this is Aubree from yesterday, by now you probably realize that you have my phone and I have yours. Is there any way we can meet up and exchange phones haha I've been kind of stressing out :)

It's cheesy but it will work. I press send, hopefully he sees.

By the time I do his face pops up. "Aubree? Oh my gosh I've been trying to get in touch with you but I haven't found a way. Wait, how'd you know about this?" Hunters voice echoes on my computer screen.

I'm guessing by "this" he means how did I find out about younow and how he was borderline famous.

aubreebennett: Someone named Blake called the phone and I answered and he told me I could get in touch with you here. So, here I am.

I press send and wait for Hunter to read my comment.

"Oh my God okay well that's good, um, do you have a Twitter? If so DM me on there and we can talk about where to meet up, I'm sorry for this mess" he smile hesitantly.

aubreebennett: It's cool, I'll DM you right now.

With that I add a tab and log into my twitter account. "So you're just gonna DM him and hope he answers?" Sean asks, I completely forgot he was here.

"Yup, you heard him." I say. "Alright well I have to go to work, see you later." He says and kisses my cheek.

"I love you" he says before leaving my room.

When he leaves I search Hunter Rowland on Twitter and his name pops up.

He has over 400k followers here. Woah. Talk about the best of both worlds.

I follow him because why not. Then I click new message on my DM board and click on his name.

aubreebennett: Hey Hunter, its Aubree. Is there any chance we can meet up and exchange phones and maybe get to your story while we're at it?

Almost instantly he replies back.

HunterRowland: Hey Aubree, and yeah sure I was planning on asking you anyway haha but do you know that place we were at yesterday? Well there is a cafe across the street I'm sure you've been considering you live in Arizona. We could meet there today around 1? If that's cool with you.

aubreebennett: yes! That's totally cool! I'll see you then :)

HunterRowland: See you then 😉

After recouping from what just happened I get a notification on my twitter.

Hunter Rowland has followed you.
