Heyo! It's Lucy here! And I'm writing this story with TiredOfBeingNice, who you should totally check out because she's awesome.
Now, I know VidCon is in California, but just pretend it's in Canada for the story. I mean, what's a story without a little imagination, right?
Anyways, hope you enjoy the story. Love ya!
*Maya's P.O.V*
"Are we there yet?" I asked from the back of the car. Me, my older brother, Dan and his best friend, Phil are going to Canada for VidCon. They're YouTubers, you see. My idiot brother decided to wait until the last minute to book our hotel and the only one left was in a small town called Whitechapel, about an hour's drive from VidCon. But I was excited nonetheless. I'd always wanted to go to Canada.
"You've asked that about six billion times." Dan said with a chuckle.
"Well, it looks like six billion is your lucky number, because we actually are here." Phil said and I realised we were in front of a hotel. I gasped and jumped out of the car, but not without grabbing my video camera. I opened it and started recording.
"We're in Canada!" I said to the camera. I'm kind of a YouTuber as well, but I'm nowhere near as popular as Dan and Phil. I usually just do daily vlogs, but I do other stuff occasionally as well.
"I'm already loving it and I've only been here for, like, half an hour." I said, before going over to Dan and Phil "And here are the two idiots that I have to stay with for the next few months." I said, getting them in camera shot, as they got our suitcases from the boot of the car.
"You do know you live with us, right?" Phil asked.
"Yeah, but now I have to share a room with you two twonks." I said. They rolled their eyes.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Come and help us with the luggage." Dan said. I obeyed and turned the camera off for the time being, not wanting to drop it while I lug our bags into the hotel. I grabbed some of the luggage and walked into the hotel with the boys. We checked in, got our room key and went to our room.
"Great, there's only two beds." Dan said. There was a double bed and a single one.
"Well, it's your fault for waiting until the last minute to book a hotel room." I said. Dan rolled his eyes. "So, I think I should get a bed to myself and you two lovers can share the other one." I said.
"No way! You and Phil can share, I'm getting my own bed!" Dan said.
"Why can't you two share? You are family!" Phil pointed out.
"He has a point." Dan said.
"I suppose." I sighed. I guess it wouldn't be any different from when I was younger and slept in Dan's room whenever I had a nightmare. "Congratulations, Philip, you get a bed to yourself." I said, before dumping my suitcase on mine and Dan's bed and unzipping it. I grabbed my camera and decided to continue vlogging for a while.
"So, we're in our hotel room," I turned the camera around to face the room before turning it back to me, "Unfortunately it's only got two beds and Phil gets the one to himself." I pouted, "So I have to share with that dickhead." I pointed the camera at Dan, who was sat on the other side of the bed, on his phone. God, he hasn't even unpacked yet and he's already on the internet. I thought I was supposed to be the teenager here?
"Shut up." He laughed. I giggled and turned the camera back to me.
"Anyway, I'm just unpacking right now and thought I'd vlog while doing so, so it's not as boring." I explained.
"I'm really excited to be here in Canada. I've never really been anywhere outside of England, so this is really cool to be this far from it. I do feel a tad homesick, but the excitement is kind of overpowering that. I can't wait to explore and see more of this place. The town we're staying in seems really cool. Hey, can we go and explore later?" I looked at Dan and Phil.
"Yeah, alright. We could go for a little walk." Phil said.
"Yeah, okay." Dan said.
"Did you here that, guys? I just got Dan to go outside." I said in a shocked voice.
"And we're going for a walk, which is exercise." Phil included.
"What's happening to me?!" Dan exclaimed. I laughed.
"Alright guys, I'm gonna finish unpacking. I'll be back when we go for our walk." I said to the camera, before turning it off.
ooooo
After we all finished packing, we went for our walk.
"Wow, I love this little town." I said. I was walking in between Dan and Phil, while vlogging, "Can we move here?" I asked, half serious even though I knew the answer would be no.
"Sorry, M, don't think that's an option." Dan said. M's my nickname, since you can't really shorten 'Maya'. I pouted.
"Guess I'll have to make the most of our time here then, right?" I said, smiling. We walked a little further, until I saw a school across the street called 'Whitechapel High'.
"Oh, by the way, you'll be going to school here for the few months that we're staying." Dan told me.
"What?!" I almost yelled. Then I realised I was on camera and toned it down a bit.
"Well, I can't pull you out of school for that long. C'mon, I'm sure you'll be fine." He said.
"Dan, you do know that I'm your sister, right? That means I inherit your awkwardness, and trust me, there's a lot of it." I said.
"Well, it's too late now. I've already enrolled you." He said. I sighed.
"Looks like I'm starting a new school for a while." I said to the camera, clearly not looking forward to it.
ooooo
We came back from our walk and I decided to take a little break from vlogging to go on the computer.
Seeing as we were staying here for a few months, I thought it'd be appropriate to do some research on this little town.
"Hey, guys, did you know this town is supernatural?" I said, reading what I'd found online.
"Say what now?" Dan asked. I giggled slightly. This was the one thing Dan was afraid of. The supernatural.
"There's no real proof, but apparently weird, unexplainable stuff happens around here." I said, "I'm not sure if this is serious or if some freak has made it all up to scare people away." I added.
"I'm pretty sure it's just made up. I mean, there's no such thing as supernatural creatures." Dan said.
"Then why are you so scared of them?" Phil asked.
"He makes a good point." I said. Dan rolled his eyes.
"Whatever, let's just go to bed. It's getting late." He said. I looked at the clock to see it was already 2am. How long was I on the internet for?!
We all went to bed, but being the teenager I am, I went on my phone for a while, before I did finally get tired and decided to hit the hay. But, not before saying goodnight.
"Well, I'm off to sleep guys." I said to the camera, "Dan and Phil are already asleep." I pointed the camera at Dan's sleeping face, illuminating it with my phone screen, "Aww, look at his little face." I cooed in a baby voice, then laughing at my own voice. I'm such an idiot sometimes. "Anyway, I'll see you guys in the morning. Night!" I blew a kiss and turned off the camera, falling asleep almost as soon as my head hit the pillow.
