*Dan's POV*
I'm pacing back and forth in the lounge, thoughts running through my head. How could they possibly find out about her? I knew bringing her to the dapgoose live event was a bad idea. Phil sits on the couch looking at his laptop. He must sense that I'm worried because he shuts the screen, gets up and grabs my wrist stopping me in my tracks. "Hey calm down, everything's fine. Martyn's trying to figure out how the fans found out about all of this and once he gets to the bottom of it he'll let me know" We don't break eye contact the whole time he says this. I pull away and sit on the sofa. "What am I supposed to do while your gone? I don't know how to keep her safe from everyone now that your leaving" He sighs and sits down next to me, "Everything will be fine Dan okay just trust me, don't tell her what's going on. Maybe you can take her out for a bit to do something. Just keep her away from any social media. I don't want her to find out about this unless we have to tell her alright?" I nod and lean my head on his shoulder. "You won't be gone for long right?" He shakes his head just as his phone goes off, indicating that his cab to the airport has arrived. We both stand up and I grab his bags. We reach the front door and just stand there for a minute. "You have fun okay, don't worry about us, we'll be fine" I say, "I'll make sure to skype call you guys later tonight" he says and I laugh. We embrace and stay like that for as long as we can till we hear the car blare its horn. As I pull back we're still so close, I'm about to lean in when I hear a voice come from behind us, "Wait Phil's leaving already! you didn't, oh sorry am I interrupting something?" We quickly break apart and I turn to see Amelia standing on the steps looking at both of us. "No I was just about to leave, but not with out saying bye to you first" Phil says. Amelia runs towards him and they embrace. When they pull back he looks at her, "Stay with Dan okay, he tends to get very lonely when I'm not here" I immediately blush and Amelia starts to laugh. I push Phil out the door and with a last wave he gets into the car and then he's gone. I close the door and turn to look at Amelia, she's smiling from ear to ear "So, what shall we do now?" I laugh, she looks so adorable just standing there. "Well, I'm in the mood for some serious gaming competition" She nods as to agree to this and then yells "Race you back to the apartment!". She bolts back up the stairs as I chase after her. Once we're back in the apartment I'm out of breath and she's already won. She starts jumping around cheering in the lounge and just for fun I tackle her onto the couch. She continues to laugh to the point where she almost loses her breath. We end up lying on the couch, panting. Once we've gained back some air we sit up, grab a wii remote and turn on Mario Kart 8. She ends up winning five out of the eight rounds which means I lose. "Wow Dan I was expecting you to beat me but it was the other way around, I guess someone needs some more practice" she says nudging my shoulder. I roll my eyes "Okay missy whatever you say. Now what should we do?" She thinks for a moment before running off. "Amelia?" I call out. She comes back in the lounge with my camera and tripod. "Let's film a video together!", "Wait here, right now?", "Yes!" she says. I take the stuff from her hands and begin to set it up in front of us. She sits back down on the couch. Once I'm done setting up I click record and look at her. "So what shall we start off with?", "I'll hide behind one of the pillows to start. You introduce yourself and then introduce me" she says as she ducks behind one of the pillows. "Okay" I look at the camera "Hello Internet! Today I have a different kind of video for you, involving a special friend of mine" I hear a small giggle come from behind the pillow "Why don't you introduce yourself" at this moment Amelia pops out from behind the pillow with a huge smile on her face. "Hello the hole of the internet!" she says. Silence fills the room until we both burst into laughter. "I don't know what made me say that I'm sorry" she says. I wave my hand, indicating its fine. "Anyway, Hi I'm Amelia and I'm here with Dan today to make a video. I'm not sure what we're going to do yet...uhh" she looks at me and suddenly an idea pops in my head. "Let's do some baking! I'm sure there's some ingredients left over from past baking experiences" She nods in excitement. I stop the recording and we head over to the kitchen. Once I click record again we begin to look in all the cabinets for some things to bake with when I find the pumpkin cookie cutter. "Hey Amelia, did you ever watch the video of when Phil and I made Pumpkin Spice Pumpkin Cookies?" She turns around and nods. When she sees the cookie cutter in my hand she gets all excited, "Oh my gosh can we please bake them! I've always wanted to make them but never had the ingredients". I nod and we continue looking for the specific ingredients. Luckily we find everything we need and begin the baking process. It takes us about an hour to put everything together and soon the 12 cookies are on a baking tray and in the oven. We rest with our backs against the counter top and look around, the whole kitchen has been turned upside down as baking materials and flour are spread out everywhere. We both sigh, "Guess we should clean this mess up" I say as Amelia slowly nods. Once we're done cleaning the cookies are ready to eat. I make us both a hot chocolate while she takes the cookies and some left over icing from the Monster Pops we made last week into the lounge to decorate. She also comes back into the kitchen to grab the camera to set up. When I walk into the lounge with two mugs of our hot drinks in my hands she's hard at work putting the final touches on the last cookie. I put the hello kitty mug on the table next to her and have a seat. I take a sip of my drink as she drops the tube of icing on the table. "Done!" she exclaims and holds up the tray to show me. All the cookies have different designs, either spooky or christmas themed. Some have sprinkles or candy on top while others are just decorated with white icing. I grab one that has a white christmas tree on it and take a bite, it instantly melts in my mouth. I roll my eyes back, showing how good the cookie is and she laughs. She grabs one with a smiley face on it and dips it into her mug. Once she takes a bite a big grin appears on her face and she begins to laugh. "What's so funny?" I ask her. She continues to laugh until she says, "I'm surprised by how good they are that's all" which causes me to laugh as well. We end up eating three each, putting six aside in a container for Phil. We end the video and as I'm detaching the camera from the tripod Amelia tells me that she's a little tired and is going to take a nap. Once she leaves its just me left in the lounge. I grab my laptop from the coffee table and sit on the sofa. I check tumblr and reblog a few things, send some quick emails, and check twitter. I get a text from Phil on my phone asking how everything is going and that he's safely landed. I tell him all about the little baking video we filmed. He texts back with 'sounds like you two had lots of fun,' which I respond back with 'yes we did, I'll send you the video later'. After we talk through the for an hour since he couldn't skype I decide to play some video games to pass the time. About an hour later after playing a little bit of Halo 3 Amelia comes back into the lounge rubbing her eyes. "Dan its 7:30pm why didn't you wake me up?" I pause the game and look at my phone, "Sorry, guess I lost track of time" she sits next to me and rests her head on my shoulder, "I'm not going to be able to fall asleep for a while now. I need to do something that will keep me busy until I get tired again, do you have any more ideas?" I am about to search up things to do when I remember what day it is. "I have a great idea! Have you ever heard of Guy Fawkes night?" She nods, "Yeah I learned about it once in my history class, its where us british people celebrate a night with fireworks over a man who almost blew up the parliament or something right?", I nod "What if we go out tonight and see if we can watch some? We can also go out for dinner since I'm getting kind of hungry", "Yeah me too" she says "That sounds like a lot of fun though! Let me go change into some warm clothes cause I'm sure its cold outside" and with that she heads off up to her room. I decide to do that as well so I head to my room and throw on a gray shirt, black jacket, a pair of black jeans and my black zip up shoes. We meet each other by the front door all ready to go. She's wearing a white jumper with two blue birds on the front with a heart in the middle, black jeans and white converse. "Nice outfit" I say. She smiles, "Same to you". As we head out the door a cold breeze brush pasts us. She huddles closer to me so I grab her hand. As we walk she takes pictures of the different buildings all lit up by street lights. We arrive at a nice restaurant and sit in a booth across from each other. We talk the whole time, getting to know each other a little better. She tells me funny stories from her life about her parents and what happened to her after the car crash. I don't say too much about my past as she probably knows most of it from my old videos so instead I quietly listen to her every word. After we each enjoy a meal of steak, mashed potatoes and some grilled vegetables we head out back into the city and find a good spot for fireworks. Luckily we find a park that have layed out blankets for people to sit on. It's busy but we're able to find a good spot. As the fireworks begin shooting off into the sky she moves closer to me. I put my arm around her which she then rests her head on my shoulder, we stay like that for a while. As the show comes to a close she looks up at me, "Hey Dan, thanks for everything" she then puts her head back on my shoulder. I smile, "your welcome" I whisper as the last firework explodes in the night sky.
