Suprising (thatcherjoe)

Chapter 14

"Good morning." You say as you stretch. It seems like Zoe is awake, but you're not positive. What seems like a long time, but in reality was really a couple awkward seconds, you hear a cute girly voice edged with sleep say "Top of the morning to ya." In a faked thick British accent. You give a little chuckle even though you didn't find it too funny. You get up and walk to the bathroom. You left your toiletry bag in there from the night before. You wash your face and brush through your hair. You apply minimal makeup since there is always a good chance rain will fall, and your face has a horrible habit of letting your makeup smear. You hear Zoe get up and it sounds like she's walking into the kitchen. You hope she's making coffee. You could go for some dark coffee right now. You hear the hot water boiling and silently curse. Tea.
"So I figured since you are in England, you need to have tea."
"Aw thank you Zoe." You say politely.
"Would you like a cup of tea?" Zoe asks in an exaggerated British accent. You laugh because it's still that awkward stage of friendship where you have to laugh at each other's jokes. Zoe poufs the hot water into the simple white mugs. She takes milk and sugar out of her adorable matching jars. You sip it carefully since the steam is almost reaching the ceiling. You're surprised by how well the tea actually wakes you up. Zoe looks at you expectantly. "It's really good!" You say to make her feel better. "Oh good! Hey, would you mind if I filmed you? I have to get a vlog in since I haven't yet, and you're here!" You chuckle. "Of course you can!" "Oh good! Okay well it's kind of awkward at first but by the end of the day you won't even notice the camera is here. But if you hear me talking to what seems like nobody, I'm not crazy I swear! I'm talking to the camera." You smile. "You mean your talking to the millions of viewers you have?" She looks at you oddly. "I thought it was your friend that watched my videos?" You smile again. Gosh, being with new people is so exhausting. You have to be extremely polite and smiley until you get past the awkward stage. No wonder you keep the same friends for so long. Getting new ones is more trouble than it's cracked up to be. "Who do you think she makes watch them?" You ask Zoe. "Oh!!!" She starts laughing then. You didn't mean it to be funny but it's better than the alternative; offended. "Well," she pulls herself together. "The boys wanted to have breakfast with us."

Lunch with the boys was uneventful. Nothing out of the ordinary was conversed, there was many phones taken out to Instagram the meal and many vlogs were started. "Mealswithordinary" started trending after Caspar tweeted a picture of you and your breakfast. You now have a couple thousand followers on both twitter and Instagram, and Marcus is setting you up a tumblr. It still hasn't sunk in you're in England with famous people. That actually want to be around you. Your best friend is coming in a couple weeks, and you will be touring Europe. Who would have thought you were that average girl in a boring state of New England. Since it was a hot day out (supposedly, to you it didn't feel all the hot) Zoe invited you to the beach. Luckily you were bright enough to pack a swim suit. You coincidentally bought the push up bra type. You didn't mean to, it was just the one that caught your eye in the store and you didn't realize. And now, with Zoe- a fashionista cute girl, Marcus- a handsome but taken guy, Caspar- a newly broken up hot man, and Joe- your new best friends hot younger brother, you will be in a slightly slutty outfit. But as they say

"When in Rome..."
