Back to school now … for 6th Form … why cruel world, why must you do this to me? Updates are going to be very slow and for that I apologise. It is so much work just to keep up and I have about an hour free every day to write and do other things … I have no social life at the moment.
Chapter 2 – Combeferre and Jehan
Combeferre's Youtube studio was a lot less spectacular than Grantaire's. It was just his bedroom; his incredibly organised and spotlessly tidy bedroom. Combeferre was one of the founding members of their little Youtubeing group, Les Amis de L'ABC. He started it with three of his off-internet friends, Enjolras, Courfeyrac and Jehan. Jehan came up with the name; he was part French and had an addiction to French puns. It was first made as a way for them to spread their social justice messages but they branched out to gain followers. Combeferre's vlog was used for taking the mick out of dodgy films and novels. Today Jehan, AKA FlowerPower, had come over to help him use crappy lines from young adult romance novels for flirting. Combeferre's Youtube name was TheBespecticledOne, courtesy of Courfeyrac who had decided one day that Combeferre's only noticeable feature was his thin glasses. Combeferre clicked on the camera as Jehan settled into a spinning chair next to him, giving it a ceremonious twirl for luck. "Good day to you all," Combeferre began with a smile and a little wave. "Today I am with my good, good friend, FlowerPower to show you that what it says in books is not the way to flirt," he smiled and Jehan waved at the camera.
"And obviously we are going to start with Twilight…because who doesn't like the mock Twilight," Jehan laughed as they both spectacularly produced copies of the book. Jehan was the first to start. "'You are my life now,'" he hissed seductively and it took all of Combeferre's infamous will power not to burst out laughing at Jehan's acting. Combeferre flicked a few pages and smiled.
"'Do I dazzle you?'" Combeferre asked, jokily moving his eyebrows up and down with a daft smile. Jehan could not stop laughing.
They worked through Twilight and then moved onto The Host; the boys didn't like Stephenie Meyer; that much was obvious. But the end Jehan was crying in laughter and Combeferre was sat on the floor after Jehan had pushed him out of his chair. All in all…a successful video.
So, post what you would like to see! If you did it on the last chapter then it will appear but if anyone has any more ideas or any general comments then pretty pretty please review for me!
