Chapter Two- Not So Funny
I finally met up with Lisa who was covered with signed posters and other objects I didn't know of and quite honestly did not want to know. She hugged me when she saw me, almost dropping all of her new prized possesions. "This place is so awesome Manders!" She started showing me the objects that she was holding. She held up the poster of Shane Dawson's Friends 4-Ever and his signature. It was scribbled and I squinted to try and understand the words. No luck.
"What the heck does that say?"
"Well I asked him to say something he would normally say and he wrote 'Free Hand-jobs for anyone!' and he signed his name."
I shook my head. "This guy is special in the head. What about the other stuff?"
"Well, Jack from jackfilms gave me a shirt that said 'Bich' because I won some random competition he was holding. I had to sing all of Toby's lines from 'Take Off Yours Clothes(Like Scarlett Johansan)." She said proudly.
She started telling me more about her things and when she said the very upset look on my face she trailed off slowly. "Uh.. what's wrong?"
I crossed my arms over my chest and waited for the light to go off in her head.
"Oh! I'm really sorry I left you. I just got really excited and I mean, wouldn't you freak out if one of your biggest idols was right in front of your face?" She pouted and pulled her best puppy dog look. I rolled my eyes and waved her away. "Okay, you're forgiven. By the way, Toby isn't all that special in public. Plus he talks to himself."
She laughed. "Talk to himself? That's impossible..." The light clicked on in her head once again and she shrieked at the highest volume. "You saw... you met... I can't believe.."
"Sentences help other people understand what you're saying you know." I said as I poked her nose lightly. "But yes, I did see him and no I did not meet him. I was at Starbucks waiting for my coffee and he was there talking to his phone. But when I looked at his screen it was just his face. So he was literally talking to himself." I gracefully put my hair in one, the heat started to make my hair stuck to the back of my neck. "Why do you like him again?"
"Because he's amazing! I can't believe you met him!" She shouted again.
"Saw. Not met." I corrected. "Besides it's no big deal."
You know when people look like they are about to explode. Like the tiny blue vein on their neck is throbbing and all you want to do is back away slowly to the nearest exit. Sadly there weren't any exits I could escape from but my friend definitely looked like she was about to explode.
"I AM NOT LEAVING YOU ALONE EVER AGAIN!" She bellowed. I looked around in the lobby and saw the strange looks people were throwing our way. I looked back at her wide eyed. "What do you mean you aren't ever going to leave me alone again? I only saw him once!"
"That does not matter. You actually got to be in the same as him. Did he smile at you? Of course he smiled at you! And to think I actually left you alone."
I sighed and rubbed my temples trying to figure how the conversation had gotten so intense, so fast. The day was long gone and night had taken it's place. There was no one left in the lobby so I simply told Lisa it'd be best if we just went back to our hotel room which we did. I flopped on the bed head first and tried to relax on the comfy bed spread.
I heard Lisa dump her many items on the floor and a bing came from her phone. She squealed and sat on the bed with me.
"Toby just posted a vlog! Hey you might actually be in it."
I scoffed and lifted myself up. "Please. It. Was. One. Look." I started stripping off my clothes and into my night wear. I wonder what tomorrow will be like... will I see another Youtuber talk to theirselves?
I heard Toby's voice and the familar words I heard from earlier in the day.
I was back in bed and still hearing Toby's voice as I closed my eyes. "I think that, that girl over there thinks I'm insane. Can you see her? Hothothothothot."
My eyes shot open and I looked at Lisa who was looking at me in shock. She went back a few seconds in the video and paused it handing the phone over to me.
Figures. It was some blond girl with green eyes in the screen. I have brown hair and blue eyes. So he was clearly not talking about me. Why was I freaking out. "What's the big deal it isn't me?"
She blinked a few times and took the phone back. "I thought I saw you. My mind is probably playing tricks on me."
I snuggled into the covers and rested my head on the pillow. "Its fine. Maybe too much hugging these people went to your head. Doesn't that Ijustine girl wear a lot of perfume?" I teased trying to lighten up the tense mood. I had no clue why the room was so intense or why we were acting like I could've been in his video. It was clear that he only likes 'hot' girls and I am not one of those.
She laughed and climbed into the covers with me. "I didn't see but I did smell her. Or maybe that was exoticjess I hear she wears a lot of perfume. But I'm sure she smells good. Maybe I could hook you up with her." She said seductivily. I shook my head but smiled. "So not funny. I am not a lesbian. I'd rather hook up with... who's that guy who said that inapproiate thing?"
"Shane Dawson?"
"Yeah him." "Too bad. He's dating lisbug."
"What about Jackfilms is he dating anyone?"
"Yeah, Kirsten. But she lives in Maryland. Their relationship is like a fairy tale." She sighed dreamily. I snorted. "I'll just stay single then."
"Don't worry. When me and Toby get married I'll be sure to sign you up for a cute guy to have. He will have hot friends I'm sure." She yawned and I followered her actions.
"You're going to marry him now? Fantastic." I said sarcastically. "I'm the maid-of-honor though right?"
"Of course." She said her voice growing tired. "I will be Ms. Lisa Turner. I love that.." She whispered. I took this as an invitation and closed my eyes drifting off to dreamland. Lisa will be with me 24/7? No problem. I'll just have to remember to keep my happy face on while she tackles ground men and woman. Should be fun.
The Next Morning
"Come on! How long do you have to brush your hair?" I complained. I was dressed and ready to go and Lisa was sucking the life out of the handbrush she brought from home. Which has a bunch of stickers from other youtubers.
"I have to be perfect. Toby's panel is going to be today. Ah! It's going to be great. We are finally going to see each other. Our eyes will meet and he will know that he finally found his true love." She shouted from the bathroom. I pretended to gag although I was not that far off from doing so.
"I must say. You're innocence makes me feel young again!" I shouted back. "I'm heading down the lobby without you!" I grabbed my hand bag and reached for the doorknob. "Wait! What happened to sticking together?"
"Unlike you I will not leave you high and dry by yourself. I'm just going down in the lobby while you finish. I want my coffee fix anyway. Maybe a doughnut."
There was silence and I knew Lisa was debating whether to let me go or not. Finally she shouted back, "Fine but text me if you see anyone that you know I would want to see." "Gotcha. You don't want to see Toby Turner or anything right?" I snickered and a random comb flew out the door. I dodged it and quickly ran out the door. Before closing it I shouted a quick "Love you" and made my way down the elevator.
I made sure to call my mother and tell her I was alive and well and Lisa was extremely happy. As much as I may complain internally (Or externally depending on the situation) my favorite thing to do was make my best friend happy. She deserves nothing but the best and if me having to kidnap that Toby guy for her was the way to go then so be it. I just hoped it wouldn't get to that because I am not the jail kind of girl.
I tapped my foot to the rythme of the song playing the elevator and leaned on the back of wall. The elevator opened and a girl with jet black hair and bangs walked in. She looked... kind of familar.
She smiled at me and I smiled back. She looked like she was expecting me to say something but I remained their silent and she finally shrugged and walked in.
"Do you like Vidcon so far?" She said with a russian accent. I shrugged. "I'm not really here for myself. I'm here for a friend."
She nodded. "Oh that seems nice of you. This is your first time here?"
This time it was my turn to nod. "Yep. There are a lot of crazy fans here." I said. The girl was wearing the worlds cutest outfit and she looked absoutely adorable in it. I was about to compliment here before she said something else.
"Well fans were meant to be crazy. I don't think that they even know they are being crazy most of the time. I think it's cute though." She said with a tiny laugh. Her laugh made me smile and want to laugh to. I predicted this girl to have a lot of friends.
The elevator dinged and she stepped out. She looked back to give me a tiny wave and another smile. "Thanks for the chat. I hope to see you again!" She said and bounced off happily in the oppisite direction. "You too!" I said to her back as the door closed. Where had I seen that girl before? Did I know a Russian woman? I don't think so. Hm, maybe I saw her in the subway or something. I'll have to ask Lisa about it later.
But for right now, doughnuts were calling my name.
