"It is really nice to be able to sit down, you know? I mean, I love Phil, don't get me wrong. It's just that I can look like a slob and let my food baby settle." Micah was sprawled out on the couch.

"Speak for yourself." My tea was just the right temperature, sliding down my throat and making me sleepy so I didn't have to face the rest of this damn day. Dan was in wherever he was in the states and I was here. It just doesn't seem right. I got that gross feeling in the pit of my stomach when he left and I didn't get to say goodbye. The quite was nice in my apartment and Spyro the Dragon was my next assignment, something I easily excelled at.

"Come on, it has to be nice to get some down time."

"I have had too much downtime and too much drama. I want something in between. I just want to be stupid with someone."

"Well then let's be stupid today. I have some rum left over that would go great with some grenadine and diet coke." Micah smiled from her spot on the sofa. I grinned back and agreed. Usually when she's drunk and I'm drunk and even Soup is drunk, Micah will rub my feet and paint my nails. That sounds like heaven to me.

Dan's POV

I love all of my fans, I just didn't know there were so many of them. A young teenage girl came up to me with a My Chemical Romance t-shirt and black pants. Each of these people were unique in some way, and the t-shirt made me think back to my younger years when they got me jump started into good music. The heart guts were pulled at their break up.

She was short and a bit stout but adorable none the less. "Hello, love, how are you?"

"Eh, you know. Staying strong." She shrugged and gave a sad smile.

"I see their breakup effected you too, huh?"

"Yeah. But your videos help ease the pain."

"It's always nice to have someone to laugh at in times of need. Now do you want me to sign anything? Cause we can certainly do that." Phil was over talking to the last person that just came up to me, engaged in conversation.

"Yeah, could you sign this? It's not much, just a drawing. I have a copy of it for you and Phil. I can't let go of any of my originals, I'm sorry." She handed me over a large piece of paper with a still shot of Phil and myself. I almost mistook it for a photograph and I immediately thought of Micah.

"This is amazing. I'm impressed. Here, I'll draw you." I drew her short pixie cut hair and her face with a big smile on it. She had stick arms and legs and a MCR shirt on. It sucked.

The girl laughed. "I love it! Here, I also wrote you guys a letter. A lot of crappy things have been happening in my life and I just wanted to thank you for all that you've done. I enjoy being able to laugh at least once a week, even if it's at someone else on the internet." All while she was speaking, I could just barely make out a multitude of scars on the very top of her arm, old, yet very thick. And then I thought of Atari. So I wrote "Stay strong," on her card.

"I enjoy other people laughing at me. No, that didn't come out right. Stay strong, love. And please stop, for me." I am not a sentimental guy at all, yet it seemed necessary that I told her this. She blushed. "What's your name?"

"Mary."

"Did you write that on the letter?"

"Yes, and my tumblr url, just in case."

I grinned. "Thank you, I will read it and respond." She nodded and took the paper I wrote on, ready to move on to Phil. "Wait! We didn't even take a picture together!" And so we did, on both of our phones.

When I sat down, I was satisfied, and felt good that a simple (though long to make) video could brighten someone's day.

Phil, Cat, and I all went back to the hotel room, ready to scarf down all the American foods! We got some fucking Taco Bell and Toaster Strudels No, we did not plan on eating them together. Ah, the American way to eat.

"I've never heard so many American accents in one place," Phil commented.

"That's because it's America, Phil."

"I know! But they were all talking to me!" Cat laughed at him and stuck part of the "Doritos Locos Tacos" in her mouth. They were strangely the best things in the world, though I'm pretty sure that's not Spanish...

"I don't want anyone else to tell me that I'm tall."

"Good luck, mate. When Atari gets back, she's going to forget that you are a good foot taller than her and tell you that."

"Shut up."

"Who's Atari?"

"He hasn't told you about her? Wow."

"Who hasn't he told me about?"

"His girfri-"

"She's not my girlfriend."

"His almost girlfriend."

"It's about time. I was wondering when you'd snatch one of your fans. They are very cute, you know."

"You only say that because they are your subscribers as well."

"It's true. But no, seriously. Where is she from? Argentina? India? Do you go on Skype dates? Did she move to London for you?"

"She didn't know him from the internet."

"So you went outside?"

"Well, yeah. I was bringing home groceries and I was on the subway, so I saw her and she went with me and we walked home to the apartment building and we became friends. Nothing that big."

"It was so much more interesting than that! She was crying because her boyfriend broke up with her so he went and talked to her on the underground."

"How do you know?"

"My girlfriend told me. She's best friends with Atari."

"The game system?"

"No. That's her name; Atari."

"Atari and Dan. Cute. Do I get to see a picture of her?"

"No," I responded immediately.

"Why?"

"I don't have any pictures of her."

"It's called Facebook, stink brain!"

"Stink brain? Really, Cat?"

"You haven't seen Wreck it Ralf? You are missing out." She smiled. These other YouTubers were my family and friends, people that I could trust, but I needed some time away from them. "Wait, it just came out on DVD, let me show you it. I think that you'll like it."

"We can do that while we look up Atari. Here, I have my laptop," Phil offered. "And you should see Micah, Atari's best friend. She is so beautiful." And on they went about the traits of the two girls. Up until then, I hadn't realized how many different pictures she had. Facebook annoys the hell out of me, all these stupid, arrogant people congregating on one social site to share their unimportant feelings about unimportant drama. All they post is "he said, she said" bullshit and it pisses me off. I don't want to have to deal with stupid old "friends" that I never talked to.

And I missed her. I couldn't wait the two more days of meeting endless fans and my throat feeling even more sore. The photos of her on her Facebook wall were heartbreakingly gorgeous. Cat thought that she was pretty and outgoing, from the amount of weird faces and people that she's with.

"She must play a lot of video games," Cat commented, seeing one with Atari sitting on her couch, her hair in a mess, a giant t-shirt on, with a Play Station controller in her hands. She was next to some guy with long, dark brown hair and a Pierce the Veil shirt. It was tagged with someone named Josh, only a year ago. She doesn't know how great she is.

"She does."

"That is so cute. Look at her! I am so jealous of the people that can look like that, all scrubby and messy, yet so adorable. I can't stand it. And it's cool because in a bunch of these pictures, she's not even trying! See, look at that one. She doesn't even stress about looking gross. Who took that?"

"Probably Micah, but it doesn't look like their apartment."

"It says some guy named Ben."

"That's her ex," Phil said.

"He's cute."

"He's a dick and I hate him. I can't believe that someone would treat a girl like that, especially a girl that amazing."

"What did he do?"

"He made her cry."

"Doesn't look like he made her cry in this picture." She had clicked on a photo of the two of them locking lips. Her eyes were closed, covered in eye shadow and mascara, her hair pin straight with Ben's fingers in it. He had douchey hair, the top flipping up. I hated him even more. Why is it that such terrible guys get such amazing girls?

"I bet there are going to be pictures of her with you pretty soon," Phil suggested.

"No."

"Wait- have the danosaurs been alerted of this girl?"

"Well I hinted during a live stream that her name was Atari, but I didn't say that we were dating or anything."

"And the world hasn't blown up? I know that there's that video of yours that's up with a girl that looks like her on it. Wait! That's her?!"

"Yeah."

"Wow. She's amazing. I can tell why you like her, Dan." She smiled at me. "Don't worry, I know that she likes you too. I mean, who wouldn't? Set aside your ego and your subscribers, then you're a great guy." We chuckled and went back to the movie, reminding me of Atari constantly. I vaguely remember her saying something about her brother, Felix. I get how they got that name for him. Better than naming him Game Boy.
