Chapter One: Meet the Future SmoshGames Recruits
'Fucking hate high school...' Ian Hecox sighed as he stared angrily at the clock. Time could not move fast enough. "Hey, dude," his friend Julia Ovenshire said to him, eyeing her brother's friend, David Moss. "What would you say if I told you I like Josh's friend Dave?" Ian personally didn't care, but he didn't want to seem like an ass, so he replied, looking at Dave, then back to Jules repeatedly, "What. The. Actual. Fuck?"
Jules bit her lip as she stared at David, who was sitting next to her lame-o brother, Joshua. David paid no mind to her or any of the emos, really, but she wished that he would. All Ian could stare at was the back of a certain jock named Anthony Padilla. Ian had never told anyone, not even Jules, but he secretly was gay for Anthony. And seeing Anthony's face and wanting to kiss him made Ian sick at his stomach.
Jules paid no mind to David once she turned to try and say something to Ian and she caught him staring at the back of Anthony's head. "Dude, you criticize me over someone I can actually obtain socially, while you're fucking staring at Anthony Padilla, the football captain! What the hell is wrong with you?" The teacher, who was reading a random book, most likely an encyclopedia, shushed them as the bell tolled.
Ian rushed to grab his things, not wanting to stick around the school any longer than what was required. Jules had to run towards Ian. "Hey! What the hell, man? Why are you acting like a giant douche? I thought I was supposed to be the sad emo one." Ian turned to face Jules abruptly and said, "I'm not sad, I'm pissed off, okay?! Goddamn it, why can't somebody at least act like they give a fuck?"
Jules raced to catch up with Ian again after he stormed off. "Stop acting like an ass and let me talk here. Okay, I've invited this girl named Mari Takahashi to my house. She doesn't have a lot of friends, so I was wondering if maybe you'd come over to try and help her get used to people...?" Ian shook his head and for once, actually didn't walk away from Jules. But then he saw Anthony walking closer and he turned and blushed.
Jules once again had to sprint to catch Ian, and she said, "Well, if it makes you feel any better, Anthony is friends with this guy Matt, and Matt is friends with Josh, so... if you come to my house, there's a good chance Anthony might be there... then you can talk to him!" Ian shook his head again and said, "No. I am not talking to Anthony fucking Padilla. You're insane." Jules grabbed Ian's arm to keep him from walking off.
"Stay. The Fuck. Here," she said, forcefully. She put on a smile and turned to Anthony, who had been talking to Matt Sohinki, his friend. "Hey, Anthony!" Jules said, in a peppy tone. Ian rolled his eyes at the gesture. Kindness made Ian want to hurl. Anthony eyed Jules as if she were a poisonous mutant, but said, hesitantly, "Hi... you're Josh's sister, aren't you?" Jules nodded.
Ian wanted to choke Jules out for initiating conversation with Anthony against his will, but instead, he decided to walk away. Jules grabbed his arm again, digging her black painted fingernails into his shoulder. Ian said, "Ow! Fuck!" in pain, but Jules kept her smile and said, hissing through her teeth, "You aren't going anywhere, jackass." Ian sighed in defeat.
"So, Matt was just going to head to Josh's house tonight. Josh probably wouldn't mind if you tagged along. What do you say? We," Jules made finger-quotes as she said the word, "emos, won't bother you much. I'm hanging with Mari and my friend Ian here." She jabbed an elbow into Ian's torso and he jumped a little, then waved weakly in Anthony's direction, wishing so badly that he could just disappear.
Anthony looked like he was disgusted, but when he looked at Ian a second time, he said, slowly, "Ooookay... I guess. I don't mind you," Anthony mimicked Jules's finger-quotes, "emos. I'll be there." And then Anthony took one last stare at Ian, and he could slowly feel his guts turning in knots. Anthony flashed that trademark smile, and Ian felt faint. Then he walked away, leaving Ian to suffer from the memory of his chocolate eyes.
Ian said, to Jules, as soon as he knew Anthony was out of sight, "What the fuck did you just do?" Jules smirked slyly at Ian and said, "I just set you up, Ian. Good luck. Be at my house, ASAP." And with that, Jules walked away and left Ian to stand in utter silence, reflecting over the glimmer he had noticed in Anthony Padilla's eyes as he had looked at him.
"Good," said Jules, as she stood in front of Ian, Anthony, David, Josh, Mari, and Matt, who were sitting on the couch, wondering what the hell they were doing there. She had strategically placed Ian and Anthony together in the center, hoping they would at least try to strike up conversation. But instead, they just shared a few awkward looks followed by blushing and then talking to everyone else but the other.
"You're all here. Now," she said, pacing the room back and forth. "I've noticed you all have ties to one another, in some way. Josh, you're my brother. You're friends with Dave," she flashed a wink in David's direction, which made him feel a little uneasy, "and Matt. Ian and Mari are my friends, therefore being tied to Josh, Matt and Dave by me. And Anthony is Matt's friend, therefore tying him to Josh, me, Ian, Mari, and Dave through Matt.
"I have summoned you all here to talk about something very important to all of you..." She paused, leaving them all in anticipation for what she was about to say. "Gaming. I know you all love gaming. Especially Matt, Josh, and Dave." She flashed another wink at Dave, which made him shift in his seat a little. Dave didn't want Jules's affections. He just wanted to know how she knew so much about him.
"So, gaming in L.A. is pretty popular. So is YouTube. You can make money from gaming on YouTube. You all can at least tolerate each other, right?" Anthony awkwardly glanced in Ian's direction and said, quietly, "I guess." Dave, Matt, Josh, and Mari shook their heads yes. Ian just said, "Sure, why the fuck not? Now, what the hell is your point with this, Jules?" Everyone backed Ian on this issue.
Jules said, "Well, I have decided... you're going to make YouTube gaming videos!" She clapped in giddy excitement. Everyone sitting on the couch just looked at her as if she had just revealed the plan to a terrorist act. "What?" Jules said, acting as if she didn't understand why they were all so surprised by her proposition. Josh looked at his sister and said, "Jules... you can't just gather random people and expect them to form a gaming channel..."
Josh secretly liked the idea of spending lots of time with Dave... yes, he knew that his sister had a freakish crush on the guy, but he just didn't care. Secretly, Josh wanted David for himself. And he didn't care if he hurt his own sister in the process... he liked David. Matt had been eyeing Mari the whole time, but Mari didn't look at anyone. She just sat, biting her fingernails. She didn't speak. But then again, that was just one of Mari's "things."
Jules said, looking at Anthony, "You already have a YouTube account, don't you? It's called Smosh, you're friggin' hilarious. We could name the gaming channel after Smosh. SmoshGames. Bingo! I am a genius!" Jules began doing an awkward dance. The six on the couch looked at her awkwardly and Ian said, "Why the fuck do you think we would make a gaming channel right after we had first met?"
Josh and Dave nodded in approval with Ian's question. Mari didn't look up. Matt just kept looking at her, taking in her features. He wished she would speak. He wanted to hear what her voice sounded like. He never would admit, but he had imagined what her voice might sound like. Anthony looked towards Matt, who was still looking longingly at Mari. Anthony looked away quickly and in his head, he promised never to tell a single soul.
Anthony stood next to Jules and said, "You know, I actually think Jules isn't totally insane. If we all start a gaming channel, we could show everyone how fucking awesome we are, and maybe even stop the social groups from picking on each other. I'm in. What about you guys?" Ian looked all around the room, trying desperately to avoid Anthony's eyes meeting his, but then, Ian said, nervously, "I...I'm in, too... I guess..."
He stood next to Anthony and waited for the others to say something. Anthony smiled at Ian. He felt like he immediately was going to faint. But instead of fainting, Ian actually smiled back. It was the first smile he could remember giving someone. Josh rolled his eyes and said, "You're all bat-shit crazy. I like crazy. I'm in." Josh jumped to stand with Jules, Ian, and Anthony.
Dave hesitantly said, "Hmm... I don't know about this, Josh..." Josh looked into David's eyes and said, "Trust me when I tell you that this is going to work out fine." Dave sighed and began to stand. "Fine, but if this doesn't work out, I'll personally kick your ass, Josh. All of your asses." Jules squealed in delight and ran to give Dave a bear hug. "Yay! My Davy is going to be part of the crew!" Dave tried to wiggle out of it, but there was no use.
Eventually, Jules let go and Dave ran to Josh's side before she could grab him again. Dave looked at Josh and whispered, "Your sister's fucking creepy." Josh nodded and whispered back, "You get used to her... after a while." Dave rolled his eyes. Josh chuckled a little at Dave. Dave chuckled back and turned to look away from Josh, secretly wishing that time would freeze just so he'd have an excuse to look a little longer.
Matt sighed and said, "Son of a bitch... Just so you know, I'm only in this for the possibility of a YouTube partnership. I don't want a real job. Hell, I don't want to be in school sometimes." Matt walked over and stood next to Ian. Now, they were all looking at Mari. Mari felt herself shaking nervously. All of their eyes were on her, and she hated being the center of attention.
Then, she looked straight at Matt. His was the only pair of eyes that wasn't demanding at all. His eyes were calm and quiet, not pressuring her at all. Mari could tell a lot from someone's eyes, and that meant that Matt was a good person. Of course, she knew Jules was a good person, too, but at the time, Jules was acting all bitchy for her to join the team.
Mari's gaze at Matt didn't break as she began to stand. She smiled at him and said, softly, "O...Okay..." Everyone rejoiced. Dave and Josh high-fived, Mari and Matt smiled at each other then both looked away, blushing. Anthony was so overjoyed that he even picked Ian up and hugged him. Ian was so shocked by the gesture that his jaw dropped as wide as his mouth could go. So did everyone else's.
Jules ran to Dave and hugged him even more tightly than before, saying, in a possessive way, "He's mine! Yay!" Josh had to literally peel her off of him. When Jules had finally calmed down, Dave said, "What the hell is wrong with your sister? Why does she like me so much?" Josh shrugged his shoulders. He actually really didn't know. But the question Josh was asking in his mind was, "Why do I like him so much?"
Meanwhile, Anthony had finally put Ian down, and in an attempt to defend his sexuality, he said, "Um, yeah... that was a bro hug... man... hug... don't hate." Ian was still surprised when Anthony put him down. "S-Sorry, man," Anthony said, awkwardly. Ian cleared his throat and said, shyly, "You must be strong to have lifted me off of the ground..." They both immediately looked down, blushing, then they smiled quietly to each other.
Mari had actually spoken! Matt was so happy that he knew how he voice sounded that he initiated conversation with her, just so he could hear it again. "So... what made you decide to join the SmoshGames crew?" he asked her. She blushed a little and looked away before answering, "Uhm... I don't know, I guess... Maybe it was just a feeling..."
