I'll try to fix you when past still haunts you

I need to know what's happening. It's almost seven o' clock and our flight is in six hours. Dan payed two round trip tickets, with his VIP advantage or something like that, and it costs us around 435 dollars each instead of almost 500. He said he doesn't want me to pay him right now, but I'm not comfortable with this kind of situation...

The only one I find in the editing room is Ashton. I don't know why he isn't with him.

"Has something happened?"

"Not quite, we published it already." I'm surprised.

"Why didn't you tell us, then? We were waiting for you." He looks upset. "Hey, it's okay. Maddy went to bed. She's feeling a little weird and wants to rest until dinner." He's still pretty upset. "Are you okay?" He shakes his head.

"Let's watch it first. Maybe it'll go away. If not, I'll tell you." Is he really saying that he trusts me already? Wow..

Today's 24/7 starts with the fireplace where I sat alone and got company. We can't hear much because the closest camera was filming from another room, but it was close enough to see us near the raging fire. Some parts have subtitles, which makes it more interesting. By falling asleep on Dan again, I called it a night and got carried in my room. It's Dan's day, so the next scene is when he films himself hiding the teddy bear with the note and explains why he's doing it. Then I get through the window and attack the camera. The trampoline scene is next followed by Maddy interrupting us. While I was sleeping, Dan bought the tickets, carried me to the car and waited with Ash until I woke up. They talk a bit in front of the camera and then we see my reaction followed by an overview of Maddy's speech and our small ride on fast motion. Poor camera... it almost died when we rolled down the hill. The end of the video says that it's Friday, which means that they'll upload a real video today too. Before watching their new video, Ash shows me the number of likes and comments. Nothing has changed. I still am the mystery girl, but now I am the luckiest "risk taker" guest they ever had. That's great if I can help with their channel.

"That's a great 24/7. Great job!"

He smiles at me, then shows me their new video. It's called: Do I know my bro Challenge part 1. Basically, they both say that they met two best friends, us, and are wondering if they know each other like they think they do since they never did a challenge like that. Separately filmed, they first answer what the other one would answer in a certain situation. It doesn't go perfectly well, but they are doing pretty fine. Secondly, they have to explain which place in the world represents the other the most on certain criterias. While they react to each other's video, they realize how the second round is a fail and laugh at their failure. What surprises me is that the challenge ends instead of having a final round. They both say that they are debating on my pictures and poses. Great...

"I personally like her when she doesn't try to be someone she's not." Dan says. "While he thinks she's just pretty the way she wants to be. So we've been thinking: Hey! Why not asking you, guys, what you think about it!" Ash continues on the same idea.

"My favorite pictures of Sleeping Beauty, our mystery girl, are these ones." At the bottom of the screen appear Maddy's best shots where, may I say, I really look good. "And these are his."

On Dan's side appear other pictures. One of them is when I'm on the trampoline with him. Laid on my back, no make up, morning look, but a contagious and kind smile. The one that makes your day even though you woke up on the wrong side of the bed or even if it's a boring and sad rainy day. The tree cameras must have caught us. Others are from the photo shoot, but aren't taken with the same angle as Maddy's. So he really was taking pictures of us. On one of them, it's possible to see my best friend's back when I'm laughing with the same energy as usual. The same smile as the first one appears on the last one where he took the picture on the moment.
