Chapter 17

Before even talking about what we were going to film, Jimmy took me to the editing department, where he introduced me to everyone properly. Everyone seemed so extremely lovely, and I couldn't wait to spend my time working alongside them all. I left my laptop and tablet with a guy called Bailey, who was positively adorable. He told me that he would have all of the software downloaded by the time we were done shooting the video, and then he would teach me to use it all tomorrow. I was so grateful for all of the help, and I found myself saying 'thank you' a little too much. When I left, they all gave me such nice genuine smiles, and it made me absolutely ecstatic. I couldn't imagine myself having a bad day if I spent my time around them, they've already made me laugh more in the last ten minutes than in the whole last year.

"Right!" Jimmy exclaimed, startling me the slightest bit. We were walking down the hallway, past the doors we had been sitting in this morning, and making our way towards the entrance of the building again. "You want to know what we're going to do today?" He asked, a smirk slapped on his face. "Of course." I nodded, no worry laced in my voice whatsoever, because at this point, I just wanted to spend as much time around these people as possible. "Today we're going to be giving money to random people on the street without saying anything to them." He told me, no hint of a joke at all. I was slightly taken aback. I knew Jimmy had a lot of money, but there was still the slightest bit of confusion as to whether or not these videos were staged when he did them. I didn't think he would be the type of person to stage anything, he seemed very genuine both online and in person, but having so much money was far from anything I'd ever been familiar with. "Sounds like fun." I giggled. I was serious, it would be really amazing to see people being made so happy. 

I was surprised Jimmy was able to stay concentrated during the ride into town. Chandler and Chris were practically shouting at the top of their lungs, singing along to music, and generally partaking in 'shits and giggles'. I sat in the back, alongside a guy called Garrett, who I hadn't fully met before, but he seemed very quiet. He would occasionally pipe up with a witty joke, but he seemed to enjoy spending time on his phone. Tareq was following us in his own car. As far as I could ascertain, we weren't just going to be giving people money, it was a challenge video. Chandler was coming up with all sorts of things that he was going to make us do, and I couldn't imagine Jimmy would allow half of them. 

It didn't take long before we pulled in at one of the car parks near the college I went to. I knew the area pretty well, seeing as I'd spent most of my time walking around, trying to avoid the people I went to classes with. We were right near the park that I used to sit and do my coursework in. It seemed so much bigger now, almost as if the world wasn't caving in around me anymore. Tareq and Chris were setting up on a table near where we parked the car. "So this is where we'll sit, whilst whoever's been challenged, will be out there-" Jimmy pointed towards the park, "doing the challenge." We all nodded our heads in unison. Garrett questioned what the challenges were going to be, at which point, Jimmy pulled out a couple of clipboards. "Mostly just getting people to sign stupid petitions." He told us. Myself, Chris and Chandler all took seats on the bench. We worked out a way of alternating so that we could have a camera on everyone at one time. Garrett was first to hold the camera pointing at the us on the bench, whilst Jimmy went out, followed by Tareq, to begin the challenges. 

"Just act natural." Chris told me, I think he could sense I was slightly nervous. I kept side glancing at the camera pointing at my face, and I was bouncing my legs up and down underneath the bench. I smiled at him, "I'll be okay. Just nervous I suppose". I was also rather excited, I couldn't wait to be a part of all of this, but I couldn't help but envision the comments that would inevitably be left about me. The more I thought about it, the more I pushed myself towards the side of fuck it, why should that stop me from having fun?  I could always just not look in the comments section. "Everyone will love you! You're great!" Chandler exclaimed, "You ready?" I nodded at him, my anxiety still running through me, but again, fuck it. Chris began to ring Jimmy, and he answered in no time. We all had a very clear view of him standing on his lonesome in the middle of the park, he looked a little like a lost puppy, and it was sort of cute. 

I watched as Jimmy ran about the park, embarrassing himself in front of people, and doing almost everything we told him to do. I got him to say "zoom" as he ran towards people, and it seemed to get quite a few giggles from the boys. I don't think I've laughed so hard in my life. Next up was Chandler, and we had a lot of fun with that one. Whilst he was very loud and outrageous around the people he knew, he was rather awkward when it came to other people. It was rather funny watching him 'run' towards people. Due to his height, his run was more of an awkward speed walk, and it was crazy the amount of distance he covered when we got him to run away with someone's hat. Jimmy was sat between myself and Chris whilst Chandler was on camera, and I found him bumping shoulders with me a lot as he laughed. It made me blush quite a few times, and I was so hoping that it wasn't caught on camera. 

The majority of the day carried on like that, Garrett began talking to me a little more by the end, and I was thankful as I didn't want there to be any awkwardness between any of us. I gathered that he wasn't around as much as the rest of them, as he wasn't in many of Jimmy's videos. I hoped he'd open up to me a little more in the future, Jimmy's friends all seemed so lovely.

The guys filmed a quick promotion for an add-on called honey, whilst Tareq and I got everything back into the cars. It was such a fun first day at work, and I couldn't wait to film another video with them. Tomorrow would be spent learning how to use the editing software, and I couldn't help but wonder if it would be this video that I would be editing. "So how did you find it?" Jimmy asked, appearing beside me as I closed the door to Tareq's car. "It was fun." I told him, giving him a smile. "I hope I did a good job, I feel like I was being a bit quiet." He shook his head at me, his dimples showing due to his smile, "Not at all, you were brilliant." He said, "You ready to go back now?". I nodded my head at him, waved goodbye to Tareq, and joined Jimmy in the walk back to his car. Chandler, Chris and Garrett were already in there, and had lined the backseat, leaving the passenger side to me. Chandler gave me a wink as I got in the car, almost as if he knew something I didn't, but I brushed it off as being another one of his quirks. 

"I'll drop you dickheads off at the warehouse, and then I'll take Y/N home." Jimmy said, and without hesitation, Chandler replied, "Hell yeah you will!". That proved it, Chandler definitely knew something I didn't, and if that wasn't enough, the 'shut up' look that Jimmy gave him in the rear view mirror reiterated it.
