Behind The Scenes of the vlogs

15. Ilya likes Natalie and David does too

"Too?" David thought to himself. "Do you have a crush on Natalie too?" but he wouldn't say that! He didn't have a crush on Natalie. Probably.

"Fuck yea" Ilya answered. It seemed like this was the only answer he could give.

"Fuck" David thought to himself. He really hopes Ilya was kind of kidding. He was hoping he would only be doing this for the bit.

David continued recording Ilya doing dumb stuff until they finally relaxed to a place. That's when David thought he could bring up the whole 'crush' thing to Natalie.

"Do you have anything to say to Natalie?" He tried being smooth but his friend didn't get that when he said immediately.

"That I have a crush on Natalie?"

Natalie smiled. She didn't know what to do or what to say. She never thought her friend was attractive. She always knew that he liked her, but she didn't think it was anything serious. She tried understanding if this was just for the vlogs so she could react.

When she saw that he might meant it, she couldn't help but show that she got flattered. And she was, it was always nice when someone said that she's pretty or that they like her.

It was fine until that someone wanted something from her. Anything.

She couldn't stop looking at David, even if Ilya was the one confessing his love for her, she felt like she didn't want to hurt David. She didn't want to say anything that would hurt David. Not that she had a crush on David, but with him, it was different.

David was looking at Natalie the whole time, trying to get her reaction and understand what she was thinking. As the conversation kept going, he felt that Natalie would not be interesting in him either.

Jason was watching all of this, laughing by himself at the childish things they were saying.

Natalie looked at David once more. He wasn't smiling. Even though Ilya was talking, and David was filming, her best friend seemed to not be satisfied with what was going on.

She remembered the three of them, in Chicago, before David or her left for L.A.

Natalie was having some problems with her boyfriend. When she told her two boy friends that she and her boyfriend were fighting the past few days, both David and Ilya reacted differently.

David touched her knee. He never wanted her to be sad. He wanted her to be happy, and near him. That's all he wanted.

Ilya on the other hand smiled. "He was always a jerk. I don't know what you find attractive on him"

David gave Ilya a strict look. That was not what Natalie needed at that time. Because she loved her boyfriend.
————
Nathalie smiled at the thought of the three of them together a couple of years. She looked at Ilya confessing that he was happy when she was around. She couldn't lie, that made her weak. She still couldn't believe that he meant what he was saying.

David looked at Natalie hugging Ilya. He couldn't stand that. Of course he should be happy for his best friends, but he couldn't. All he could think of right now was one night.

Ilya And David were chilling in David's room. Ilya had flew to California to hang out with his best friends. But at the time, Natalie was going through stuff.

David walked to the kitchen to grab a bottle of water. He knew that Natalie was facing some things with her boyfriend but he didn't know exactly.

As he was walking, he heard her door open. She followed him to the kitchen. She really wanted some ice cream. When he turned to look at her, he saw her red and puffy eyes. She had been crying. All he could do was call her name. Softly.

When their eyes met, she burst into crying. She walked to his arms letting him hug her tightly. He rubbed her back, and said nothing. He wanted her to explain to him but he couldn't ask.

Natalie didn't want to leave his arms. She felt safe. His arms was the only place that she felt loved. His look, made her feel better.

"I think I just broke up" she said while still crying in his arms. David's jaw felt like it was in pain. He couldn't understand how he had been gritting his teeth. He was angry.

"Why?" He only asked.
"I swear to God if this bitch hurt my Natalie, he's dead" he thought to himself but tried not to show it.

Natalie cried even more. She couldn't explain the reason. He just did. She didn't know if he was jealous, or if he was cheating on her or if he just didn't love her anymore.

She raised her shoulders and David took a step back from their hug. His arms still on her arms. "You don't know?" He said even more angry. But also confused.

She shook her head and continued crying. She hadn't cried this much for a long time. And he didn't like seeing her like that.

"Do you want to come over at me room?" David showed her the door. "Ilya is there"

"No, I'll be in my room" she showed him her ice cream"
———-

David didn't like Natalie getting hurt. And this might be the reason he only wanted to be with her. Because he knew he would never hurt her.

Jason suggested going back to their rooms. Jason drove Ilya back to his apartment and then the three of them drove to their hotel.

When they entered the hotel David remembered he didn't have a room. Jason wanted to invite him at his room, but he figured he would sleep at Natalie's.

No one talked about it but David went with Natalie. It was casual for them to sleep in the same room. When she opened the door she let her things and sat in the bed. She smiled at herself, looking at the floor. She liked what had happened today.

David watched her smile and sat right next to her. He was jealous of Ilya. But he was super happy that Natalie was smiling. "You make me happy too" he confessed and smiled at her.

"I know" she said. "Thank you"

"Am I not making you happy at all?" He asked acting like he was mad.

She laughed and hugged him. "You make me the happiest girl in the world" and that caused him to smile. "I'm the luckiest girl"

He pat her knee. He liked what he was hearing. This was all he ever wanted, ever since he was ten. "I'm the lucky one"
