"you got a fast car

Is it fast enough so we can fly away

We gotta make a decision

Leave tonight or live and die this way

So remember we were driving, driving in your car

Speed so fast I felt like I was drunk

City lights lay out before us

And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder

I had a feeling that I belonged

I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone"




I sat on my bed with wolf curled up behind me and I sat in front of my camera with a borrowed tripod. 

I took a deep breath.

"Hello! My name is Emma. I'm eighteen years old, and I just got back to America. I have been studying linguistics, the study of language, over in Ireland and I have learned to speak fluent Welsh." Wolf started to stir behind me like the attention dog he was.

"Hi there wolfy!" I rubbed his head and he settled back down. I then looked back at the camera and made a 'duh' face. "Oh yeah, Sorry about that. I bet you're wondering why I'm with Joey Graceffa's dog. Well, Daniel is my brother. older brother. They, as in Joey and my brother, decided that they should get me camera and help me set up an account to keep in contact with them when I'm in the middle of traveling and stuff. I figured to give it a try."

I smiled lightly at the camera. "And this way you guys know me ahead of time and there are no rumors going around as to who I am to them."

I had run out of things to say, so I just started babbling.

"Linguistics is a pretty weird choice for study, considering you can't really do much with it, but I wanted to help people learn multiple different languages. In high school I thought it would be something cool to study, something different, It could lead to a bunch of different adventures and experiences that not many people get to have. Which it has proven that, most definitely." I giggled to myself. "But that is for another video."

" I guess that is all I have to say for now! Bye!"

And with that I stopped recording and took a deep breath. I crawled off my bed, wolf keeping an eye on me, walked to my door and called for Joey.

"Hey Joey!" I called down.

I heard some talking and then heard Joey's voice yelling up," Yeah Emma?"

"Can you come help me with editing the video, I'm not sure how to do that." I said as I saw him coming up the stairs talking to someone.

"Emma is Daniel's sister, she just came back from Ireland." He said to the person behind him. "How about we help you!" 

He moved over and there was as boy behind him. The boy was very tall and had light brown hair that was in a nice quiff, he was very pale and had a very nice pleasant smile. He was wearing a white V-neck t-shirt with some khaki pants, looked very Tumblr-esqe. He introduced himself as Connor Franta. 

"Hi Connor, I'm Emma. Nice to meet you." I stuck out my hand.

"Psh." And I was pulled into a hug.
