Lilly's POV

Year: 2015
Date: 15th November
Location: Outside Ebott University

It has been 4 days after me, Jack, Jessica and Josh have uploaded the evidence to youtube. To be honest we didn't even expect much to happen because hardly anyone is on my channel anymore but when we checked it earlier, a crap ton of support was on the video. 8K likes were on it and 2K dislikes were there aswell. The video got over 100K views and we are still blown away by it.

When we read all of the comments, most of them were disgusted by the state the University was in and was glad the video was published. Some comments were wanting to support me and Jessica and while the others were just pissed off in general. My subscriber count shot up from 1K to 50k and I am still confused by how that happened. How did so many people start subscribing? I hardly done much in that video!

When I showed Jack the video he was utterly shocked and had no explanation for it. Earlier he said he was scrolling through twitter and said that #BanEbottUniversity was number 5 on trending with 40k tweets on it. I had asked Jack to check who was tweeting about it and to our surprise 5 well known youtubers were talking about it.

One youtuber who commented on it was Jacksepticeye. His tweet read:
Jacksepticeye @ jack_septic_eye [20 minutes ago]
"Oh my goodness, my heart goes out to the students who are at that university. The state these guys are in is disgusting, how could the University Officials allow this? I hope you guys are okay!"

Jack and Jessica were freaking out at the tweet. I had a huge smile on my face.

"Hey guys, Markiplier,GameGrumps and pewdiepie said the same!" Josh stated as we saw their tweets aswell. We were all pratically over the moon at this rate. But then it hit us. How are we going to continue our courses? Will we have to go to another university? We all are shit with finance and stuff. What are we going to do? A look of worry was on my face now.

After Jack finished his mini freakout he turned to me and his smile dropped when he saw my down expression "Lilly, everything is going to be okay! Trust me. We'll get through this together. We have so many people on our sides" he says wrapping an arm around me and pokes my nose, making me smile a little.

My main concern was if my old friend Thomas had seen the video. If he did, what will he say? will he say "I told you so!" and snap? I really do not want to know what he has to say about it. What if he hates me again? What if he refuses to talk to me or even try to help? What if- LILLY SHUT UP! There is no need to worry at the moment! I sigh as I opened twitter again and looked through the tweets.

And I had to freaking jinx it. At the top was a tweet from the one and only Thomas Sanders. He had a thread going on which only means he either said more than one tweet or he replied to someone. My hand started to shake and Anxiety started to kick in. What the hell am I supposed to do?

I take a deep breath and click on the tweet to see what he said.

"I can't believe it.. I am disappointed in Ebott University in treated their students like this. This is heartbreaking to hear about. It's sickening to actually know that they've been keeping this from us for this long. How has nobody found out about this?"

Thomas Sanders @ ThomasSanders [8 minutes ago]
"Oh god, I just realised that one of my old friends had went there two years ago.... I remember telling her not to go there but she insisted. I really hope she is okay, I really hope that wasn't her in the video"

Thomas Sanders @ ThomasSanders [7 minutes ago]
"... It was her in the video. Is this why she has been silent for so long? Why has she only just became active now? This can't be happening"

Thomas Sanders @ ThomasSanders [5 minutes ago]
"Lilly... If you are reading this or if you ever see this. I am so sorry that I forgot about you, I am so sorry that I ignored you and never realised sooner. You still mean the world to me, I really hope you are okay"

I sigh as I looked at Jack and Jessica who gave me the 'go on, reply to him' gesture and I sigh and start typing.

"Hey Thomas, I'm alright now. I'm finally out of this hell hole. That video was recorded by me and my friend Jack Riley. Everyone just got out of Uni and we kind of have nowhere else to go due to Finantial issues and such. If you watch part 2, you'll understand why"

I pressed sent and instantly get a reply a few seconds later

Thomas Sanders @ ThomasSanders [Just now]
"OH MY GOD YOU ARE OKAY! You remember where I live right? You should really come over and we need to talk about this. You have no idea how much I am freaking out right now. I was so worried..."

I sighed as I looked at jack and he smiled. A reassuring look was on Jessica and Josh who were texting away at the people who they haven't talked to for a while. The white snow stopped falling and the cold started to get to us.

"Well I should really head to Flordia now... Cus that's where I use to live" I state as Jack and Jessica's face dropped into sadness. I hug them both.

"Don't worry, I'll stay in contact. Besides, I'll try and get you guys to visit" I finish before walking off to the bank to check the money I have left.

(A/N I know this part has moved really quickly but It is kinda nessicary for the next part :D)

I eventually managed to move over the $20k from my cousin's account to my account. My cousin had told me if I ever need to fly anywhere, I can borrow some money and pay it back at a later date. With a sigh of releif I check my phone and look around. 4:30 pm. I should really check what time the flight is if I want to get to Florida soon.
