You exited the set, turning you saw Damien down the hallway. You frowned and started after him, curious at his sudden departure when a hand was grabbing your bicep.
"Hey (y/n!)" You heard Shaynes voice say, looking back you were right.  He let go of your arm and leaned against the wall.
Your eyes darted back down the hall where Damien disappeared to, and decided you could spare a few minutes to talk to Shayne.
"Hey Man, what's up?" You said, turning back around to face him.
"Nothing much, who are you looking for?" He asked, peering around you and down the hall to where you just tried to follow Damien.
"Damien, he left suddenly after the game bang." You answered, Shayne's attention turned onto you again.
"Oh." He said abruptly, "Well you might as well get on your way then." He said curtly, and with a small almost forced smile.
"What's wrong?" You asked, worried.
"What's going on between you and Damien?" He asked, an eyebrow raised.
"W-what do you mean?" You asked, confused.
"I mean..." He said rubbing his face with his hand "Are you two... a thing?" He asked.
"What? No. We're just friends, I swear." You answered, confused.
"Sorry," He said then pushed himself off the wall and continued "It's just that he stayed over... and now you two were going the same place at different times... like a romantic rendevouz." He laughed.
Your eyes widened "Shayne!" You hit him on the arm lightly, "you always take your jokes to far." You whinned, now keenly aware he was just fooling around.
"I know I know, Damien's car broke down, I'll go find and talk to him, he might be in the bathroom or something." Shayne said, placing a hand on your shoulder and walking off down the hall where Damien scurried off to.
"Oh, alright. Thanks Shayne." You murmed in a daze, how had shayne known?
You shook your head.
"They're best friends, of course he told Shayne his car broke down and he was staying with me." You thought running your hand through your hair.
Mari and Boze exited the set next, talking about going on a girl's night out.
"Heyyyyy, " Mari said interrupting Boze and pointing at you.
Boze's eyes lit up "yes." She laughed.
"What?" You asked, worridly. You didn't know if you wanted to get involved with Mari and Boze's antics.
"Were going to do movies, pizza, and beer at my place tonight. Girls night since Peter is out of town for a bit, " Mari said, wiggling her eyebrows "You want in?"
You grinned "Of course!" then the realization hit you.
"But... Damien's car broke down and he's staying at my house until tomorrow." You concluded glumly.
Mari and Boze exchanged a glance and seemed to weigh their options.
"He can come to I suppose." Mari concluded.
"Yeah Damien's pretty cool." Boze agreed.
You smiled "Thanks guys, I'll ask him."

Shaynes pov

Shayne walked off down the hallway, letting (y/n) stand there in confusion.
He knew he wasn't being particularly fair to her, she could like who she liked, and though she said her and Damien weren't a thing... he was suspicious to say the least.
It was normal to feel jealousy, and he knew that. Especially if you liked somebody as long as he had liked her, but he couldn't help but think that it was just a little unfair.
Damien was incredibly attractive, but Shayne thought that he himself was also good looking. Damien and (y/n) hadn't even known each other that long, and had only been in one video, yet there were already shippers.
(For the sake of the ship name, I'm just going to assign you a last name and the fans will decide your last names work better, sorry y'all.)
They even had a ship name "Haanters", the combination of Damien and (y/n) 's last names. Haas and Winters. They called themselves "Ghosts" since it sounded like "Haunters".
He couldn't help but be a little jealous, after all he and (y/n) had been on the set of iCarly together, and he had even appeared in multiple videos on her own YouTube channel. Instead he was shipped with Courtney, not that he minded Courtney, she was pretty and all... but she wasn't (y/n), he thought somewhat solemnly.
He pushed open the bathroom doors and found Damien washing his hands.
"Hey man, (y/n) is looking for you. She said she was worried that you were upset or something, that you had rushed off after the video?" He asked, shoving aside his feelings. If she liked him, she liked him, and as long as she was happy so was shayne. So he might as well support her, and his best friend.
"Yeah, yeah no I'm fine... I just had to pee really bad." Damien said quickly , worrying his bottom lip.
"C'mon man tell the truth." Shayne said leaning against the bathroom wall.
"Seriosuly shayne I'm okay." He said, patting Shayne's shoulder as he exited the bathroom.
Shayne shook his head, and shot a text (y/n)'s way.
____________________________________
S: He said he's OK
(you) : Are you sure, he left really quickly after Tanner and I   celebrated our victory... does Damien care if he loses?
___________________________________
Shayne considered telling her that Damien was a sore loser, but he decided to be an adult and tell the truth. But he was curious at the victory Celebration thing. Considering he knew that (y/n) and Tanner had known each other since high school they had probably hugged. Damien probably got a little jealous which suprised him and he had to step out of the room, and also really had to pee. Shayne concluded, after all, he knew his best friend really well.
____________________________________
S: No he had to pee really bad.
(you) : Oh, okay good, I was just worried.
S: Yep!

Shayne put his phone in his pocket and walked out of the bathroom, deciding to go see if Noah, Keith, Courtney, and Olivia were free.

(Your pov)
You saw Damien round the corner where you, Boze, and Mari were making plans.
You'd buy the face masks, and being over your nail polish, and spare headbands.
Boze would bring the makeup, and  beer, and Mari would order the pizza.
"You were looking for me?" Damien asked when there was a break in your conversation standing over your chair. You, Mari, and Boze  had taken up in the lounge.
"Damien yes!" You said quickly, looking up "Mari, Boze, and myself   were going to do a girl's night, but your obviously staying with me until your car is repaired. So, Dami, would you care to be our temporary guest of girls night?" You asked.
"Pizza, movies, facemasks, and if you want we could do your makeup  and paint your nails." You asked, you hadn't bothered to mention beer, Damien didn't drink.
"Oh," you reminded yourself "what's Damien going to drink?" You asked, turning to mari. "If he goes" you added quickly, everybody looked back at Damien.
"Okay okay, I'll go." He said, smirking.
"I'll probably just have water." Damien said, you assumed he figured from your comment that you guys were going to be drinking a bit.
"older movies?" He asked, bending down and resting his arms on the back of your chair, chin just barely above your head.
"Yes." You and Mari answered at the same time, and Boze just rolled her eyes.

Woah two chapters in a few  days? It's a miracle, I know.
Last chapter didn't have the comments "section" because I had arrived at my Uncles house and knew I wouldn't have another chance to write until  today, so I decided to just publish it and be on my way.

How was this chapter?

Anything you maybe want in the future really badly?

Should I start screenshotting a  fake text messenger app after writing what the characters are saying to make it more realistic and less confusing when characters are texting?

How was your day?
