Lucy's POV

.

I ran into my room and screamed as soon as I shut the door. I just met one of my FAVORITE YouTubers... Did that actually happen?

I pinch myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming...

I'm not.

I start to do a weird dance around my room while squealing. Then I realize why I came back- my shirt is still soaked.

I feel so sticky, so I strip down and get into the shower. I end up singing the whole time. I start to dance, but I almost slip, so I stop.

Once I finished, I get out and dry off. I change into a simple crop top with high waisted shorts and some converse. I redo my makeup and go back out.

By this time, it's past noon, and I'm hungry again. I find a quick restaurant and decide to eat there. I order a sandwich and wait for my food.

The door opens and I look over to see who came in. My eyes widen at the sight of who it is.

It's Dan.

He catches my eyes and smiles at me, walking over. I internally fangirl, but try to keep it cool on the outside.

"Hey, Lucy, right?"

On the outside I say, "Yeah, that's me."

but on the inside, I'm screaming, "OH MY GOD HE REMEMBERS ME! HE REMEMBERS MY NAME!"

"You look better without Starbucks in your shirt." he chuckles.

I nervously laugh.

"Would you like to sit down?" I say, but realize after how desperate and stupid I sound. "I mean, you don't have to if you don't want to. I want you to, but I'm not forcing you..." I babble on. God, Lucy, you're just making yourself look even stupider!

Luckily, he just smiles. "Sure, I'd love to."

I release a breath, relieved that he doesn't think I'm creepy. The waitress comes over with my food, and I thank her.

"Do you want anything?" I ask politely.

He nods and orders his food. The waitress walks away and leaves Dan and I alone.

"So, Lucy, where are you visiting from?" He starts the conversation.

"California," I reply.

"How long are you staying?" He asks.

"2 weeks," I answer. "I've wanted to come here for so long, and I just finished school, so I figured I would travel while I have the opportunity."

"Do you have any plans of what you want to do?"

I shake my head. "Honestly, I kind of just bought the ticket and booked the hotel. I was so excited I didn't really plan anything... Which I realize was kind if stupid as I have no idea where anything is."

He chuckles.

"Well maybe I could show you around a bit."

I almost choke on my food. "W-what?"

"Yeah, why not? I mean, it would be easier for you to find everything if you had someone who knew where to go, don't you think?"

"Yeah, sure! That would be amazing." I can't believe this is happening. THE Dan Howell is going to show me around London. Could this day get any better?

I finish my food and I'm about to pay when Dan stops me.

"Let me," he smiles. "It's only fair after I spilled your Starbucks earlier."
