Tori's Pov

"I can't believe I'm doing this.." I said looking into the video camera, "shut the fuck up.. you lost the bet so say goodbye to your blonde hair" Teddy said putting the hair dye on my head. Teddy and I are always placing bets and I usually win, but this time we were betting about Ally. I told him that I'd have Ally as a date to the dance before Teddy could even land a date, "this is rigged! You legit asked the easiest hoe in school!!" I whined. I'm sorry! I'm not one to call a girl a hoe but this one is different, she KNOW she's a hoe, she takes pride in being called one... So it's ok I guess. "It doesn't matter Victoria, I. Still. Won." hopefully he does this correctly...

It's been a good 30 minutes of him washing my hair, "done" Teddy said wrapping my hair in a towel. "Now go dry that masterpiece and bring that ass back down here" the ginger ordered giving a smack to my ass, which only made me glare at him "smack my ass again and I'll gladly make sure you'd never be able to reproduce" I threatened the blue-eyed boy.

After drying my hair I put on a peach-colored shirt and went downstairs, "ugh took you long enough" Teddy said behind the video camera. I rolled my eyes, "I don't have time for another one of your imitations of the girl's you had sex with" I teased going to grab my guitar. "Shut up and sing the damn song" I looked at Teddy with squinted eyes and giggled, "that's a contradiction Theo but whatever."

"Take 1" I messed up the lyrics
"Take 2" I missed a chord on the guitar
"Take 3" I skipped a verse. After so many takes, mess-ups, and calls from Camila which we ignored because we were busy at the moment... Teddy had shut off the camera, "what's up Tori? I've recorded all of your YouTube videos, and you never messed up like this before." I felt my cheeks get hot from embarrassment, "I don't know Theo! it's Ally man, she's making me lose my shit" I said pacing back and forth.

I groaned as I rested my arms on top of my guitar,  "she's practically living inside of my mind! When I think of her beautiful nature and her beautiful smile I just-" Teddy cut my sentence short by throwing a pillow at my face. "Focus Tori, just act like the camera lens is Ally and do what you do best.."

I tilted my head in confusion, "be a sarcastic smart ass?" that is honestly one of my favorite things to do, "no... Sing your heart out" I can't  believe I'm about to say this but he's right. Instead of freaking out over minor things I could just use the girl who's been roaming my mind frequently as my muse. "Now.." Teddy smiled before turning the camera back on, "..say hi to Ally."

"Perfect!" my ginger friend shouted, he closed the video camera and took a sigh of relief "after I'm done editing and posting this on YouTube, you could send this to the girl of your dreams and finally ask her out." The smile that I had on my face faltered, "wait a minute isn't PYT lowkey about wanting to have sex?" I asked wanting to abort the mission immediately. Teddy shrugged his shoulders, "does it matter? You sounded phenomenal and Ally's pure Christian act isn't fooling me" he said with air quotes around the words "pure Christian"

I would've laughed at my freckled friend, but I'm preoccupied with my own nervous thoughts roaming my brain. But the next question he had brought me out of my thoughts, "Is she even gay?" my eyes widened as I faced Teddy "I- I don't know" I stuttered while mentally smacking my forehead. There's a HUGE possibility that she might be gay, but there's also a slim chance she isn't. Oh God please don't let me fall for a straight girl again, because I'd definitely land on my ass. Teddy grabbed my hands and stared into my eyes, "if she turns out to be straight just know.."
