Chapter 1 - VidCon Arrival
POPPY'S P.O.V.
"Whoa!" I yelled, unsteadily pulling myself back onto my chair.
My name is Poppy Willow and along with my friends Sianne and Lexi, I've been an Australian YouTuber for the past two years. This year we have been invited to be a part of Vid Con, the biggest video convention in the world. All the most popular YouTubers attend Vidcon to meet and greet their fans and soon we'll be a part of it!
"Hey are you ok?" Sianne said, jumping up from behind me.
"Yeah, I'm just not that friendly with aeroplanes." I said, falling over again.
"Just you wait! Soon we'll be at the biggest YouTube Convention in the world!" Lexi yelled in my ear and started doing a little happy dance beside me.
It took us 22 hours to get to California. There were quite a few times during the trip where I was hyperventilating in my seat. It's not every day you get invited to be part of a convention. Once we landed we were so jet lagged that it felt impossible to find our luggage. We finally dragged ourselves out the door, feeling the nice hot temperature on our skin. We found our way to a taxi that drove us to the hotel. Once we got there, the reception was packed!
"Wow, this place is amazing!" yelled Lexi.
Suddenly Grace jumps in front of us.
"Why hello my Australian sisters!" She yelled extending her arms to hug us all at once.
"Hey Grace, thanks for meeting us here." I said, moving back from her friendly hug.
"Well it is my job to show the Australian newbies around."
She dragged us to a group near the main fountain.
"Guys, I want you to welcome the Vidcon newbies Poppy, Lexi and Sianne." Grace interrupted the group as we hid behind her.
She hopped aside to show the group our faces.
"Now, socialise!" Grace began to glide away with her hands just above her ears.
"Hey, aren't you the girls with the YouTube channel called The Dreamy Creamy Cows? I'm Zoe by the way. I love your channel!" She hugged us unexpectedly.
"This is Alfie, Casper, Tyler, Marcus an-"
"Sprinkle of Glitter!" I turned around to see a fan that had interrupted our greetings.
"Nice meeting you all but we should really be checking in to our rooms, we're so jet lagged." Sianne had said and left us, walking towards the reception.
"Talk to you later!" I squealed in a girly voice and caught up with Sianne with Lexi tagging along.
"What was that all about?" Lexi pulled Sianne's arm so that she turned around to face us.
"I'm just really tired, plus apparently there's a party on tonight, YouTubers only. I need my beauty sleep before I go."
Of course she does, Sianne always needs her beauty sleep. She's such a drama queen. As we headed towards the reception to grab our bags and our key cards, I bumped into someone causing me to fall flat on my stomach.
