                                  -5 years later-

"Y/N! Y/N! I love you so much!!" A teenage girl screamed after me as PJ dragged me along to the panel that I was meant to be on in 5 minutes "I love you too!!" I called back, not able to stop for a second other wise I'd have PJ nagging me again.

"Come on Y/N! You're meant to be up there in 3 minutes!!" He yelled in my ear, I could hear the screams of a crowd get louder and louder the closer we got to a massive metal frame that I could only guess is the stage. "Y/N! There you are! We're meant to go on in literally 2 minutes!" Phil yelled at me nervously, PJ pushed me towards the steps and I giggled "well I'm here now aren't I?" Phil rolled his eyes and grinned "you're bonkers" I chuckled and looked up the unstable metal staircase, my heart rate had began to speed up rapidly.

"Now ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the stage Amazingphil and Y/C/N!" The crowd let out a deafening scream and before I knew it I was at the top of the stairs in front of an audience of over 5,000 people. Phil followed me onto the stage and we both sat down at a small table with only 2 seats with a man sitting in an arm chair holding a microphone opposite us. "So guys, welcome to LA! How have you been finding it?" I looked over to Phil to see if he wanted to go first but he just shook his head and giggled "well it's been awesome meeting all of you guys!" I looked over at the crowd and they screamed in response.

"And I've loved seeing LA, it's so different from London and every where else basically" I laughed, it really is a special place, London is fun but it doesn't have as many attractions as LA. "Well that's nice to know, how about you Phil?" I glanced behind me to look at phil "it's been great! It's nice to taste ihop again"everyone in the room released a collective laugh at Phil's fondness of ihop. "Now let's just get this over with, are you two dating anyone?" Since I know Phil doesn't like answering personal questions like this I thought I'd do it for him "well phil is in a polyamorous relationship with Chris Kendal and my cousin KickThePJ" I informed him "and I am a single Pringle at the minute" I've actually really enjoyed being single, it's a lot less emotionally draining.

"Ooh nice nice, good stuff" I couldn't help but laugh at his very British response "now Y/N, forgive me if I'm incorrect but didn't you and Dan howell date a few years back?" I nodded in response, I'm not as embarrassed about it now as I was back then "can you tell us a bit about that?" I tried to think about how I could fit all of the information I have into just a 5 minute long space. "Well, it started off as a little thing that neither of us really took very seriously but as time went on we started to get so emotional that our relationship just sort of burnt out I guess" that's a lie, he cheated on me with Mia but I wasn't quite ready to talk about that informer of a massive audience just yet.

"Well that's a shame, do you see yourself ever seeing each other in the future?" I shrugged, I hadn't really been thinking about dating or anything like that for years "I think I'd prefer to focus on my channel, art and all of you lovely people!" I gestured to the crowd and smiled at their enthusiastic response, I know it's silly but I genuinely do love my fans "that's understandable but surely you miss having someone you can always talk to" I think this guy was missing the point completely, I already have 7 million people I can talk to "I always have someone to talk to, I don't need a girlfriend or a boyfriend for anything, I am a complete person on my own".

I started to feel very empowered and happy, happier than I ever felt before "now that's advice I think we can all live by, right folks?" The crowd seemed to agree and I felt very proud like I had just won an award or something. "So Phil, I've heard that you've gotten a bit sick lately" I'm glad he wasn't asking me anymore questions, I had a late night last night and I was so tired. "Yeah, I have a bit of a sore throat" he croaked, I smirked at his response, he didn't have a sore throats he was just super hungover from last night.
