"Okay," Dan began. "Until we arrange something more permanent, your bedroom is the nerd room. There's the sofa bed for you to sleep on, obviously, and we cleared some space in the storage unit for your clothes and stuff." I grinned.
"Thanks," I replied. "Oh! Before I forget," I said, just as he was suit to leave the room. "What are you and Phil's usernames on youtube?" Dan blushed slightly and coughed.
"Mine's danisnotonfire andPhil's is amazingphil," he informed me.
"Cool," I grinned. "Am I allowed to use the computer?" I asked, pointing at the mac behind me as if it wasn't obvious which one I was talking about.
"Of course," Dan smiled. "You live here too now, what's ours is your I guess. Just don't break it, obviously." I nodded, smiling when he said that I lived here.
I turned to the computer and opened youtube after he had left the room and first searched for Dan's channel, curious as to whether the video we filmed yesterday was up. Seeing that it was, I clicked on it. All the way through the video, I was smiling. Partially at Dan and Phil's jokes, and partially at the fact that he edited out my worst moments and actually made me look seem like a human being capable of socialising.
Looking underneath the video, I saw that the likes heavily outweighed the dislikes and decided to look at some of the comments too.
'SophieIsPerfect: Does this Carmen person even know who Dan and Phil are? She honestly looked confused all the way through the video.'
'Geewhiz167: Carmen seems okay, but she better not get in the way of phan.' I frowned at that, what was Phan? I decided to ask Dan later.
'Punkr0ck3r: Who does this Carmen bitch think she is?' I frowned, what had I done?
I decided to check twitter and see if Dan and Phil had the same usernames. They did. I followed them and decided to quickly look through their most recent tweets.
' danisnotonefire: I've been looking through the comments on my most recent video and I'm honestly really disappointed in some of you. Carmen is our friend and she doesn't deserve the hate some of you are throwing at her.'
' amazingphil: As much as we love you guys, Carmen is our friend and we can't sit by and say nothing when you send hate to her. Most of you are amazing, but those of you that have been saying bad things about her need to stop.'
I smiled at their tweets and returned to watching some videos. About an hour later, I decided to head downstairs and try to socialise. Dan and Phil both looked up from where they were sitting on the sofa and smiled at me. I smiled back and sat down in the space in between them.
"Carmen," Dan started. "I don't know if you've seen the comments on the video I posted-"
"I have," I informed them.
"You just need to ignore them, okay?" Phil told me. "You're an amazing person, and there was absolutely nothing wrong with you the video. They're just jealous." I giggled and nodded.
"It's okay, they didn't really upset me anyway," I smiled. Dan smiled.
"That's the spirit!" He laughed whilst ruffling my hair.
"Fuck off," I laughed, pushing his hand away and attempting to control my hair.
"I was going to make pasta for dinner," Phil said. "Is that okay?"
I turned to Phil and said seriously, "You could make me pasta every day for the rest of my life and it would never not be okay."
He was silent for a moment. "I'll take that as a yes then." I grinned.
"While slave is making dinner," Dan joked, smiling at Phil over his shoulder. "What would you like to do?"
"We could listen to music?" I suggested, shrugging. Dan nodded and reached for his phone.
"Any preferences?" He asked. I thought for a moment.
"Danger Days?" I asked. He nodded again, flicking through things in his phone.
"Good choice," he said.
"Do you have any paper and pencils?" I asked, out of the blue.
"Um, yeah," Dan said. "Do you want me to get some?"
"If it's not too much trouble," I said, nodding. He got up and returned with a small stack of paper, a few pencils and a rubber. "Thanks," I grinned. I passed the time by doing a quick sketch. It was a comic book style drawing of me, Dan and Phil as superheros.
I suddenly became aware of someone snapping their fingers in front of my face. I looked up from my drawing, startled. Dan smiled at me.
"Dinner's ready," he informed me, before looking down at the drawing sitting in my lap. "Is that us?" He asked, smiling. I nodded, hoping that I wasn't blushing, but knowing that I was.
"Sorry, I just-" I began but was cut off by Dan.
"Don't be sorry, Carmen. This is amazing!" He said, causing my cheeks to get even hotter.
"Thanks," I said, smiling at my lap, before setting the drawing aside carefully and standing up, following Dan to the kitchen. The meal was simple but looked delicious. "Thanks Phil," I smiled. "This looks great!" Phil smiled back at me.
"Thanks Carmen," he replied. "I'm glad someone appreciates my cooking skills." He said, looking pointedly at Dan. I giggled.
"Oh, I forgot to ask you guys earlier," I said, remembering something. "What's 'phan'?"
