It was less than an hour before Daniel texted me. We had been talking for awhile, & as I got to learn more about him, I started to love every single part of him more & more. Maybe not quite love yet, but infatuation. It was a fairytale ! A famous boy in a band liked me ? Or did he ? I don't know for sure, but he called me beautiful & the way he looked at me made me melt. His eyes were an INSANELY beautiful blue color. I couldn't stop thinking about him, especially since he texted me constantly. I forgot he added me on snapchat so I added him back. I also realized that I didn't follow him on any social media other than that so I decided it was time for me to do my research & find out just how famous he was.
I opened up my phone & pulled up instagram. I typed in his name (which I found out through text that his full name was Daniel Seavey) into the search bar & he was the first profile to pop up. "seaveydaniel". Wow, he was verified too .. I didn't expect him to be that famous. Although there are other people who are verified who aren't actually famous. Over 500k followers ?! Wow, okay, so he's kind of a big deal. I think I have at least 30 followers ... I started to get a little intimidated by the fact that he is so popular & i'm so ... not. Well I scrolled through his pictures & boy is he good looking. He could be a model ! I found the other boys through his profile & looked through all of their pictures too. They all had over 500k followers. They actually seem really popular.
I followed all of their accounts then moved on to twitter. Daniel had over 100k followers on there ! They all did ! Okay, so they're pretty popular, but they aren't too big yet which is cool ! I don't know if I could handle so many people liking Daniel as much as I do .. I read through some of his tweets & I could picture him saying every tweet he wrote ! He tweets exactly how he talks .. he's so adorable !
Okay now on to their music. I'm not crazy musically gifted, but I can sing a little. I wasn't sure what to expect as I opened their youtube page, but I saw that Logan Paul guy they were talking about. He has over 7 million subscribers ?! That's crazy ! At this point, I am completely flabbergasted with how successful they are. They must sing really well to have all these fans ... I clicked on the first music video I saw, the same song that was on his wallpaper. I clicked on it & the moment I saw Daniel my heart started beating faster. As soon as he started singing, I knew he was crazy talented ! He sounded SO amazing ! I couldn't believe that I'd talked to him & run into him & he called me beautiful. I was completely starstruck.
I spent the rest of the night going through all their music videos, watching a few of Logan's vlogs with them in it, & going through his profiles. Once I followed the boys, they all followed me back. I had been texting Daniel the whole day & we talked about how he got started with the boys & how they all became a band & their journey/success so far. I told him about my boring life & school/family. I felt like he was just this super cool adventurous guy & I was a nobody trying to fit his standards. I felt so intimidated by him. I started to get a little sad, realizing that I had done so little with my life & he had already achieved so much. There had to be someone out there better for him than me.
Daniel could tell something was off when I didn't respond right away & texted me saying "Hey, I know we've been talking all day & i'm sorry if we overwhelmed you with our band & stuff, but I understand if you don't want to talk to me anymore."
I responded "Are you kidding me, I wish I could talk to you forever. But yeah your band stuff kind of hit me all at once & while i'm super grateful that we ran into each other today, I just don't want to hold you back from anyone better or prettier than me. Like you can have anyone you want Daniel, & i'm just a nobody .."
"You're more than a nobody Kira, I like YOU. No one else. Don't doubt how amazing you are."
"I really like you Daniel. & I don't usually like anyone. But I dunno it's just crazy that you like me out of everyone else .."
"You are so beautiful, & I feel like I've known you forever & we've only been talking for a day. I don't want to get too ahead of ourselves, but i'd really like to see you again. Soon."
"Me too."
