YouTube University (#Wattys2015)

Why Shy Cutiepie?

It was lunchtime. I walked to get my lunch and I swiped my card. I sat at a table and started eating. There were people chatting and laughing like usual. By the time I was almost finished, Justine or Cupquake were still not there. Maybe they are doing an errand or something. Either that or... No! They are nice people, surely they aren't like that?! I looked down and thought about the people that I have met. I heard two pairs of quick feet and my head perked up. There was Felix and a brunette girl. Felix was holding the brunette by the arms.

"Hello" Felix introduced in a girl voice "I saw that you were lonely so I decided that I am going to sit down and I am going to make sure that the idiot holding my arms goes away so he won't bother us anymore with his girly voice"

Felix sat the girl down and quickly ran off. I tried not to giggle. The girl stared at the table and fiddled with her fingers. I should probably introduce myself.

"Hi. My name is Ana, what's yours?"
"...My name is Marzia"
"That's a sweet name, Marzia"
"Thanks, Ana"
"Quick question, are you Italian?"
"Yeah..."
"What's Italy like?"
"It's nice over there. Do you want to go there?"
"I have ALWAYS wanted to go to Italy. That is part of my bucket list"
"Hehe, you sound nice"
"Aww, thank you Marzia. What's your YouTube channel?"
"Cutiepie, what about you?"
"An Anamoly"
"Oh, I heard you were in my boyfriends class for vlogging today"
"Oh, your Felix's Girlfriend?"
"Yeah, I was in your class too apparently"
"I was"
"I heard you were the one that had mistaken his youtube name for an animal"

She started to giggle after she said that. I started to giggle too. I told how he greeted me and she found that amusing too.

"You know what Ana?"
"What Marzia?"
"I don't feel so shy around you"
"Are you a shy person?"
"Yeah"
"Why shy Cutiepie?"
"I find it hard to talk to people and your happiness I guess made things easier"
"You know, That is the nicest thing I have heard in a long time"
"Really? When was the last time you heard a nice compliment like that?"
"... I-I don't really remember"

Marzia looked at me with wide eyes. I could feel tears swelling my eyes as the past came to haunt me again. Marzia immediately pulled me into a hug as I started to cry softly. Marzia tried to calm me down and I tried to stop crying but in the end, we left the cafeteria and headed to the outside of the dorms. We sat on the white bench that can be seen from mine and Minx's room. There I laid my head on Marzia's lap as she sung a soft melody. I felt my eyes feel sleepy and I fell asleep on Marzia's lap.
