vidcon [sequel to lights out tour]

four

knock knock knock

the sound of someone's hands hitting against my front door awakes me from my phone to reality

"i'll go get it," my mom says as she hurries out the kitchen to the foyer, "coming!" she yells at the door. she opens it, "she's right in the kitchen" my mom tells the person at the door

as i hear footsteps approaching i connect them to a familiar face

"hayley!" i yell as i jump into her arms

my mom laughs as she's recording the whole surprise, "i told her mom about the news, and since you don't want your family coming with you, i asked her if she wanted to come"

"wait, you came all the way from europe to come to vidcon? with me?" i release her from the hug

"um yeah? couldn't miss your first. also i need to meet all of your friends" she smirks

"so are you staying at my house until we leave?" i ask excitedly

"duh" we laugh

"mom, where did you put the cookies?" i ask her, realizing they were never actually boxed up

"oh, i just put them in the front room, i'll go get them"

"come on hay, lets go to my room" i gesture her to follow me upstairs

she picks up her bags, "hey can you get one for me please?" she asks as she struggles to move both at a time

i pick up the heavier luggage and lead her to my room

we flop on my bed and finish catching up on our phones
