Natalie's life completely changes when her videos get noticed by a famous youtuber. Will she find fame? Or will she be lucky enough to find something else?
The night of the party had come and I was super nervous. I have a thing about going to parties where I don't really know anyone. I know it's weird but I'm such an awkward person I always end up standing in the corner by myself, too scared to talk to anyone. I had already begged Jess to come with me but she had a date with Dave so I just had to suck it up and go by myself. I started getting ready by straightening my long brown hair before applying some makeup. I then threw on my burgundy crop top with my high waisted white skirt which I paired with a gold belt. I glanced at my phone, it was nearly 8 o'clock. Shit I needed to leave soon. I quickly put on my black heels and stood back to look at myself in the mirror. I gotta admit I looked pretty good. I looked at myself up and down and smiled. I stood there and told myself that there were going to be so many cool people at this party tonight I was going to come out of my shell and not be awkward Natalie.

I booked an Uber and paced nervously through my apartment until it arrived. I hopped into the car and began the drive over to the twins apartment. When we arrived I thanked the Uber driver and hopped out of the car and walked up to the twins' front door, knocking three times. I could already hear the music pumping from outside. I took a few deep breaths as the front door started to open.
"NATALIEEE!" I was greeted by an overly excited Grayson. I laughed as he pulled me in for a tight hug. Man he smelt like alcohol, damn they were drinking already? I laughed to myself, this was going to an interesting night. I followed Grayson into the twins apartment and looked around, taking in all of my surroundings. Wow there were so many people here already, all talking, drinking and laughing. I loved this chill vibe. I spotted Alex standing in the kitchen and walked over to him as Grayson ran off chasing after some tall guy.
I stayed with Alex talking about our video for a while before Ethan approached us, three drinks in his hands. Oh my god he looked so good tonight. He was wearing black ripped skinny jeans and a white t-shirt. His shirt was so tight I could see the outline of all the muscles in his torso as he approached. I gulped as I looked at him up and down, he had even made an effort and styled his hair. Damn this guy was super hot without even trying.
"Nat! You made it! Holy shit you look hot!" Ethan said excitedly before putting the drinks down on a nearby table and kissing me on the cheek and grabbing me in a long hug. I hesitantly hugged him back, startled at how forward he was being. He also smelt a little like alcohol but it wasn't as bad as Grayson. I pulled away.
"I've been waiting for you for ages." He said to me, handing one drink to Alex and offering one for me.
"Thanks" I said flashing an innocent smile and grabbing the drink out of Ethan's hands.
"Drink up!" Ethan said, slurring a few words and clinking his cup onto mine.
"Ethan, your'e just tryna get me drunk." I joked, looking at him suspiciously.
"I might be" Ethan replied, laughing and biting his lip and running his free hand through his long brown hair.
I shoved him in the chest playfully, "You're a goof." I teased before skulling my whole drink.
Ethan looked at me, his mouth slightly open, he was impressed. "Damn-"
"You guys are so cute, you need to get together already." He was interrupted by Alex who was still standing next to us and had witnessed that whole thing. Oh my god, is it bad that I completely forgot Alex was there. I don't know theres just something about Ethan looks at me that makes me feel like we are the only two people left in the world. We both looked down at the floor laughing nervously.
"GUYYYYYS!" Luckily we were interrupted by a drunk Grayson running over to us, "WE NEED TO PLAY BEER PONG!" Grayson cheered grabbing Alex and I by the arm and dragging us over to the table where the game was set up. Ethan followed behind us laughing at his brother. I walked over to Ethan, "Eth, make sure you keep an eye on Grayson."
Ethan chuckled, "He's fine, but its cute that you care so much." He said taking a step closer to me.
"OKAY GUYZ ITS ME AND E VERSUS NATALIE AND ALEX" We were interrupted by Grayson, who had already started setting up the cups in formation.
Ethan stepped closer to me again, this time we were only inches apart. He was so close I could smell him. He smelt so manly, the smell of his sweet cologne mixed with alcohol. I looked down towards the floor to keep my knees from crumbling beneath me. Ethan reached up and placed his hand underneath my chin gently pushing it upwards, making me look directly into his eyes. I took a deep breath before looking at Ethan directly in the eyes, they had a glint of mischief in them.
"Want to make this game interesting?" Ethan asked seductively, biting his lip. Fuck me! How was I supposed to say no to that?
"What did you have in mind?" I flirted back, trying my best to match his level of seductiveness. It must have worked because for a split second Ethan's face turned a bright red before he regained his composure and returned to his calm cool self. I smiled to myself.
"A bet," Ethan stated simply. I looked at him with an eyebrow raised, "If I win then you have to go on a date with me. A proper date." Ethan said confidently. I couldn't help but smile a little.
"And if I win? What do I get?" I flirted back. I didn't really care what his answer was, either way was a win win for me. Even if I 'lost' I would get a date with Ethan Dolan! Ethan smiled at me, the sexiest smile I had ever seen. His hand moved from under my chin, around to cup my cheek. I liked this Ethan, he was confident and in charge. I tilted my head back with pleasure as he began to stroke my cheek with his thumb before looking directly into my eyes and replying, "You can do anything you want to me." In that very moment it was like the floodgates to heaven were opened in my pants as I tried with every piece of my existence to remain composed. How was this even possible for another person to have this kind of effect on me. I could see in Ethan's face that he knew what he was doing to me, and he secretly loved it. I honestly had to concentrate so hard so my legs didn't give way.
"Okay. You're on Dolan." Was all I managed to spit out before Grayson ran over to us.
"Come on lovebirds!" He teased as he pulled Ethan towards their end of the table.
I walked over to Alex who was waiting for me at our end of the table, straightening our cups. "What was that?" He asked raising an eyebrow at me.
"Dont you worry buddy." I replied back, flashing a big innocent smile. "But we need to win this game."
