The Cycle of Friends to Strangers

Chapter 10 - Vlogging and Comments

After rougly half an hour after Anthony left, Ian realised that their subscribers would be expecting a video, so he decided to make a short video apologising for the fact there will be no video. He got out his phone and began recording.

"Sorry guys! A lot of you are probably wondering 'where's the new video?', well sadly Anthony has gone to New York with his girlfriend Kalel, who plannned the trip, and I'm here with my girlfriend Melanie, well she's not in the house but I can still call her, oh well. So anyway, there won't be a video this week. Once again, me and Anthony are so sorry about this - don't leave us, we need you!" Ian started to fake cry. He stopped and continued, "But don't worry, videos will be back to normal from next week - also Logan is vlogging, all videos will be on his channel, so maybe you'll get to see his girlfriend. Anyway, bye guys!" Ian smiled to the camera then stopped recording. He couldn't be bothered to edit anything so he just uploaded it straight to youtube. "Anthony should be here" he said.

Ian put his phone down and decided to have a nap on the sofa.

*******************

"Hey guys!" Anthony began vlogging in the car, "sorry about not uploading a new video, but I saw Ian uploaded a video explaining why, so I hope you understand".

"What are you doing?" asked Kalel.

"Vlogging our time away," Anthony moved his phone to get Kalel in the shot, "this is my girlfriend Kalel!"

Kalel saw the camera so decided to change her attitude "Yay!" she laughed

"So Kalel, where are we going?"

"To the airport"

"Why?"

"To go to New York!"

"This going to be great," grinned Kalel.

"Imagine if Ian was here, he'd probably make a New York joke!" laughed Anthony.

"He'll be fine, don't worry"

"Do you support Ianthony?"

"What's that"

"The ship name for me and Ian" smiled Anthony.

"Why would I like the idea of someone else with my boyfriend?" Kalel laughed.

"I don't know, but it's starting to snow!" Anthony turned his phone around so he could record the snow.

"That's December for you"

"December? That means it's christmas soon! What are you getting me?" Anthony turned his phone again so he was in shot.

"A cardboard cut out of me!"

"Just what I always wanted. Well we gotta go now, as we are at the airport trying to park, I'll vlog again tomorrow. BYE!" said Anthony as he finished the vlog and clicked upload.

Kalel noticed Anthony fiddling round nervously.

"Ian will be fine, he has Melanie - and you'll be okay too, because you have me!" she laughed at herself.

"Thanks" Anthony put his phone away.

******************

 Ian woke up with a jolt, his phone was vibrating, he picked up his phone to see who was calling, it was Anthony. Ian couldn't help but smile.

"Hello?" Ian said as he picked up the phone.

"Hello!" replied Anthony.

"Shouldn't you be on a plane?"

"Yeah but the flight was delayed, so I decided to call you"

"Shouldn't you have called your mother first?"

"Oh right... whoops! So, how are you?"

"Tired, but fine. What about you?"

"Oh I'm goo-" Anthony was interrupted by Kalel.

"Who's that?" Ian heard Kalel through the phone.

"Ian" said Anthony.

"Well our flight is boarding," Kalel took to phone off Anthony and started talking into it, "so Anthony will have to talk later, BYE!" Kalel hung up.

"I didn't even get to say goodbye" Anthony said quietly.

"Bitch" Ian said.

Ian got bored so he decided to look through the comments of his video.

'Kalel sounds like a slag!'

"Trust me she is" Ian chuckled.

'Maybe we should give Kalel a chance, stop being so mean!'

"Well giving her a chance got me nowhere, so I wouldn't hold your breath" Ian whispered.

He went onto Anthonys channel to see the comments on that video.

'Kalel is so sweet!' 

"She's as sweet as the devil" Ian kept thinking of the reality of these comments.

Ian had enough of having to see people who can't see through lies, so he went back to sleep.
