At 7a.m, Sam was woken up by a continuation of knocks at his apartment door.
'Fuck, who IS that?' he thought, as he slowly got up from bed. He walked to the door, grabbed the key and unlocked the door... and to his surprise...
"Hey, brother!" Colby said. He seemed very excited.
"Colby? Bro, it's just gone 7a.m. What're you doing here?"
"We need to film a video. Like right now" Colby walked into Sam's apartment and set his camera up in the collab room.
"Alright then?" Sam was too tired to resist, but why did Colby have to film a video so early?

In the collab room, Colby explained that because he hadn't post his video yesterday, he needed to film one as soon as possible to post it today.
"Could you not have waited until I was actually awake?" Sam asked.
"I could've. But I couldn't be bothered. You sleep in really late, till like afternoon!" Colby laughed.
"So what's this video we're filming?"
"A q&a from the fans" Colby pulls his phone out.
Sam and Colby sit down and start answering questions for the video. Until...
"Dear, Sam and Colby, please take a shot of mayonnaise each." Sam reads from Colby's phone.
"Colby, go and get the mayonnaise and shot glasses from the kitchen" Sam said, and Colby did so. As Colby isn't in the collab room, Sam looks through more tweets on Colby's phone. Just before Colby walks back into the room, Sam turns the camera off.
"Bro, what are you doing? We haven't finished."
"Oh, I think we are... Out of everyone, I didn't think I would be betrayed by you, the person I care about most."
"Um, what?" Colby puts the shots of mayonnaise on the table.
"I have no idea what you're on about, dude"
"You're so pathetic. How the FUCK could you do this? You're a sad excuse of a human being." Sam nudges past Colby and goes to walk out of the room.
"Sam! What the fuck? Where are you going?"
"Anywhere that you aren't. And do NOT try to follow me." Sam walks out and gets in his car, he drives away. Colby packs his camera up and goes back to his apartment and puts his camera back into his recording room. As he walks out of his room again, he sees Kat knocking on Sam's door in tears.
"Kat, what's wrong?" Colby hugs her.
"Sam, he.. he just called me and- he.." Kat falls to the floor crying. Colby sits next to her trying to comfort her.
"What happened? Did he tell you why?"
"No" Colby had never seen Kat so upset.
"He's acting really weird. He just walked out on me too. We were filming a video and then he just stopped and shouted and left"
"Wait.. like 5 minutes ago?" Kat suddenly sounded really worried. "What video were you filming?"
"A q&a... why?"
"Oh shit. I might have an idea why he did this" Kat stood up and walked back into her room. Colby, still very confused, walked back into his room also. Colby checks his phone and he has a text from Sam.
'Forget Sam and Colby. It's just Sam. And it's just Colby. This is done'
Colby's heart drops. What has happened that caused him to lose his best friend?
