The Video - Johnny NCT

Chapter One

So this may be confusing to everyone, but I'm rewriting the whole story because I realize its trash. So this is chapter one rewritten. I want to hear all of your feedback to let me know how you like it and if you want me to continue in this style. Love you guys!

"So, let me know what you guys think down in the comments below. Thank you so much for watching and I'll talk to you guys later!" I clicked the red dot on my iPhone to stop the video recording and set it down on my nightstand. My YouTube channel has been growing a lot recently and I think it is due to the fact that I started posting videos about K-pop. This new one that I just finished filming was about Johnny, my favorite star and past rookie from NCT, and how my best friend ships him and I. I knew he was my ultimate bias about two and a half years ago when I just turned 15. It all started when I was new to the whole K-pop vibe and my best friend kept showing me new bands every single day.

"Okay, so this is NCT U, they just debuted and even though there are only a few members in this unit, there will be more units to come," my best friend Warveen said to me.

"Okay, that seems interesting. Can I see all the members from all the units?" I asked

"Yeah hold on let me pull them up," she said closing the first tab which was The 7th Sense music video and opening another one to look up the members. "So look at this page and tell me which one you think is the cutest."

I scrolled through all of them and noticed Johnny right away and I showed his picture to Warveen. "He's pretty cute."

She examined his photo closely and didn't respond to me right away.

"Warveen?" I asked

"Wait," she said. "I can actually see you guys together. You look perfect for each other and he is really funny and quirky just like you Ari! Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, oh my gosh!"

And that's how it all started. My YouTube channel "LifeofArianna" has 500,000 subscribers and is ever growing. My videos basically are vlogs as my channel name suggests. I don't know why anyone would find a 17 year olds life entertaining, but I guess people like it and I won't complain.

I sat down after filming and edited the new video. I wanted it to be up as soon as possible in order to get feedback from my fans. They really are my biggest support that get me through the day. Their support means everything to me, but the occasional hater can ruin that great feeling. I try to look past the haters though and move on from their negative vibes.

I created a thumbnail for the video which was a photoshopped picture of Johnny and I that Warveen made. She will forever and always be our number one shipper. She even made "Arjon" the official ship name.

After uploading the video, I went downstairs to find my mom making dinner.

"It smells like my favorite in here," I said as I entered the kitchen.

"Mhm, I'm the greatest mom ever for making my daughter's favorite meal,"  my mom responded.

"Yes, because pasta is so hard to make," I said jokingly.

"Ari, I'd like to see you try to make pasta," she said. And she was right. I barely know how to make scrambled eggs, let alone pasta sauce.

"Yeah yeah," I responded sarcasticly.

    I grabbed a plate after the meal was completed and sat down at the kitchen table to eat the heaven in front of me. In the midst of my enjoying, my phone rang with my 'The Office" theme song ringtone.

    "Let me guess who that is," my mom said.

    I laughed. "You know exactly who it is."

    I answered the incoming FaceTime call and Warveen's face popped up.

    "HAY GIRL!" I said a little too loudly.

    "HI!" Warveen responded dragging out the "i" sound.

    "What's up?" I asked while slurping my pasta so my question came out in a jumbled mess.

    "Oh nevermind Ari. Let me call you back. I don't want to interrupt your dinner," Warveen said.

    "No it's fine."

    "Ok well, I was thinking, your new video could blow up and become really big. NCT is starting to really grow and that could bring publicity to your channel." Warveen has basically become the manager of "LifeofArianna" after I started making K-pop videos. She is the only person I know who knows everything about the industry and the idols.

    "Really?" I asked.

    "Most definitely. Also because Johnny is attracting more fans, some of your fans might try and get him to notice you."

    "I don't think that will happen Warveen."

    "You never know," she said while shrugging.

    "But, if I ever meet Johnny, I'll make sure you meet Kai from EXO. I know he's your ultimate bias."

    "I would cry Ari and you know it."

    "It's the least I could do for my best friend," I smiled.

    "Don't make me cry," Warveen responded while fake crying.

    We talked for about an hour while I ate my dinner about the channel, K-pop, and life in general. We ended up talking for a long time about how we were going to be seniors next year and life was going to start getting hectic. I never thought about that until now. I have my future to look forward to. What will happen to my channel and my K-pop fantasies? Will I even have time for those?

And that's the end of rewritten chapter one. I'm super excited about this and how its turning out and I hope you guys are too. On my last authors note, thank you guys so much for the endless support. It means the world to me that people are actually enjoying the story and want more of it. Overall, I'm trying to stretch the story out because I saw how some people were confused when Arianna and Johnny kissed so fast. I also hopefully have another work in the making that was supposed to be an Arjon fic, but since I'm still continuing with this one, it ultimetly won't include Johnny. Bummer, I know, but I really want to get back into writing because I think it would be really cool to publish a book (even though I would need to REALLY improve my writing skills). Again, thank you so much for the endless support on this book and thank you SOOOO much for 9,000 reads. I never dreamed it would get that big.
