I sat on the sofa, laptop on my knees, watching one of Charlie's new videos. Already a thousand comments, the lucky sod. The above mentioned walked into the room, bedhair still in tact, as it was only seven in the morning. I heard him shuffle to the kitchen, before shouting, "TEA, ALEX?"

"Yeah, thanks mate." I replied, and there was the sound of the kettle being switched on.

Whilst the water boiled he came and sat next to me on the sofa and glanced at my laptop screen through his glasses. "Oh, great." He sighed. "I uploaded that last night, and now I probably have about five comments worth reading in that glob."

"Thats what happens when you're a super-famous YouTuber!" I grinned.

He said something that sounded like, "Meh", before looking at the internet tabs on my screen. Oh, shit, Charlie, don't say anyth-

"Why are you looking at Carrie's Tumblr blog at seven in the morning?"

"Er-"

"Ahh, liddle Alex godda cwush on ItsWayPastMyBedtime?"

"No!" I replied, too quickly for the lie to be any good.

He chuckled, just as the kettle finished boiling. He stood up and walked into the kitchen, less sleepy. "So, thats why you always sing This Kiss in the shower! And around the house. By the way, I hope that your audition went well for that rather inapproriate TV program that you both took" I had taken a call-back for a show about a sex-addict, as had Carrie.

"Charlie, I don't know what you're implying-"

"Oh, Alex Richard George, you know exactly what I'm implying."

"Well, then, Charles Joseph, you are wrong. I don't have any sort of crush on Carrie."

"Ahh, is it love then?" He laughed as he poured water on to teabags in my favourite mug. He set it down on the kitchen table after pouring milk in it. "She's definitely something." He took his tea and went to walk out of the room, but paused in the doorway. "Oh, and by the way? Nice fanfiction username... Neribedtime4Evr."

I looked up at his retreating back. "What!?" Oh, god. Oh, no. No, no, no.

He reads my fanfiction?

CARRIE'S POV

...

I woke up and glanced at the clock. Seven thirty. I groaned and hauled myself out of bed. Alex was coming at quarter to nine (Ohh! Bit suggestive!). I had to get dressed and ready and I really didn't want to get up. If only Alex could have been going to my house for a reason other than making videos, I would have been alright.

He arrived exactly on time, totally Alex-like. The filming itself went actually well, but his phone kept going off, which he kept rolling his eyes at. "Charlie." He told her when she looked at him.

"He keeps texting you. What's it all about?"

"Erm, n-nothing."

"Mm... Oh, his latest video was brilliant!"

"Oh my god, I know!"

"Yeah, I'm so glad he's back for good now. I was worried after he posted 'I'm scared', y'kn-"

Alex's phone buzzed. But this time I managed to grab his phone from him and read the message.

Alex Day, TELL HER!- Charlie

"Tell who what?"

Alex ran his hand through his mousy brown hair. "Well..."

I went to his recieved messages.

Then I read what they said in disbelief. "Alex?" I asked him. He had his head in his hands.

"Alex? I-Is this true?" I asked him, holding a message in front of him.

He looked up at me, and swallowed. "Yes. Carrie, I love you."

ALEX

I walked out the house as she stared at me, shocked. I had never been more embarassed in my life, quite truthfully. Never. As I unlocked the door of mine and Charlie's house, I picked up the post. Charlie, like me, had been out when the postie guy had delivered the mail.

As I sat down and opened up my browser to check my emails, something caught my eye.

SUBJECT: LOVADDICTION audition

...

Dear Mr Alex Day

I am glad to inform you that you have chance to take the part of the leading man of the three episode series, LOVADDICTION. You will, if you accept this part, be acting with a woman named Carrie H. Fletcher who recently accepted the part of Melissa Browlyn.

The character on offer is Kyle Smithers, the sex partner of Melissa. If you take the part you will be taking part in several heated scenes, so you may have too take a few days to think it over. We thought that your audition was outstanding.

If you wish to take the part, reply to this email address for more information within the next week.

Many thanks,

Caroline McSwaffield

Head of LOVADDICTION casting team

I bit my lip. Carrie had accepted the part? I couldn't do it. No. She must've not known she'd be acting with me. But then I saw the email at the top of the list.

SUBJECT: Please read this, Alex

...

My dearest Alex,

I accepted the audition to play your sex partner. My way of saying these things:

1. You're my real life Disney Hero

2. You're hot

3. Alex Day, I love you too

Love,

Carrie, your biggest fan and admirer

...

Oh. My. God. I sort of totally happy-danced, until Charlie came in and saw me. I grinned manically at him.

"What's made you so happy?" He asked, smirking at the camp way I was dancing.

"I got the part! I got the part! And Carrie got her part! And she accepted it! Which means I may have a chance to get even closer to her!"

"Well done, mate!"

"Thanks, Charlie! Hey, d'you want to go out to celebrate tonight with Liam, Ed, Michael (A/N Is Michael living with them yet? If not, he is in this story :D), Phil, Dan and Carrie and Ciaren tonight? It'll be a laugh."

"Sure! I'll call 'em."

So there I was. I accepted the part and got ready to go celebrate.
