Luci woke up the next morning tired. She had finished making the bed at around 2AM and had gone to sleep at around four in the morning. The girl grunted and rubbed the Sleep out of her eyes. She had work that day and at her pace she would've actually awake in an hour. She didn't have a morning routine, but the first thing she always did in the morning was check her phone for messages.

Luci picked her phone up and began to scroll through her notifications. A text from her friend which was just a link to Tumblr, about three notifications from Best Fiends and Subway Surfers, and about six notifications about YouTubers tweeting. Nothing too interesting. Or so she thought.

Down at the bottom. The oldest notification from the night before. A DM on Twitter, but this was the last person she thought could have imagined could message her. It was Dan Howell. Dan had messaged her? How could that be? Out of millions of fans, why would he pick her? Unless... he had seen her message. Luci's eyes widened as her whole face heated up. He had seen her idiotic  messages on Twitter. Did she even want to see the message? It would most likely be him telling her that her life was depressing and for her to stop.

She rubbed her eyes and felt a familiar pain in her chest. Anxiety. Even though she was clearly nervous about opening the message she wanted to open it. It was from her favourite YouTuber.

Luci took a breath and picked her phone again, placing her thumb over the home button to unlock it. She immediately went to that notification and began to read.

"hey. i read everything. i relate to you a lot believe it or not. we should talk?"

She couldn't believe her eyes. Her heart was beating harder than it ever had and  she felt like she was in a fantasy. Was this really happening? She took a deep breath and looked down at her phone again just to make sure she hadn't hallucinated the whole thing. It was real. He actually didn't think she was pathetic. He related to her. He awful pain in in her chest completely fade away. The girl suddenly realized that she hadn't answered so she quickly began to think of what she could answer him. She didn't want to be like 'OMG UR DANISNOTONFIRE OMG !!!11!', but she didn't want to seem careless. She finally typed her answer and sent it before she could think twice.

'Hi...yeah I'd love that. Should we meet up or through FaceTime or something?'

She gulped, crossed her fingers, and looked up at the ceiling as she thought to herself 'please reply.' She wasn't a religious person, but it it was a habit of her's to look at the ceiling when she wanted something to happen. Before she knew it she saw the three dots coming which meant that he was answering. She gulped again, her heart racing as fast a race winning horse. Then there it was. He answered.

'rather in person cause it's hard to answer with all these messages coming in. just promise not to assault me lolzor'

She laughed at this and bit on her lip, quickly going to the keyboard to answer something.

'Hahaha promise I won't. Idk if you've heard of the Rosewood cafe? You pick the date & time cause you're the one with busy schedule'

An irresistible smile was painted across her face. She let a small chuckle escape her lips. There was a feeling in her stomach she hadn't felt in a while. The known symptom for 'butterflies in the stomach.' Before she could really process it there was a ding in her phone. Her smile widened and the butterflies seemed to multiply.
