__________11:00am- Monday___________
2 years later

The alarm went off and boy was I tired. i scrambled to reach my phone and layed back on my back. Noah spam texting me as always
                                                   

Noah- y/n
           y/n
           y/n
           y/n
          wake up dammit

you- jesus christ what?

N- what do you want from dunkin

you- are you serious? you spam my phone for this... i want an iced coffee and a donut

N- listen this would much easier if you were still living with me

you- whatever ill see you at 12

I slowly got up and hopped in my shower. damn this water feel nice on the skin
as i maneuver my way out and into my kitchen shayne called.
since i started my job i have been getting very close with shayne. for some reason me and him just clicked as friends and since then we have been non-stop together.
even though im just an editor, i get to see him a lot considering im on set a lot helping with lighting as well.

Shayne- sup y/n. are you on your way soon?

you- yeah ill be there at 12. why?

S- oh youll see.

you- what are you doing?

s- its not what im doing.

you- whatever, im heading out now.

I hung up the phone, grabbed my keys, and headed out the door.
car ride was never exciting, just scrambling around the parts of LA.
I parked in the parking garage down the street and walked my way over.
i got up the 5th floor, where everything was at and headed straight to my office shared with 2 other editors.
i walked in and everyone was in there. there was balloons tied and cake.
"happy 2 years working with us y/n!" Ian said giving me a huge hug. "without you, our videos and merch wouldnt look so good" as all of the other 6 editors got jealous.
i stood there in shock and took my coffe and donut from noahs hands.
"thanks guys" i said sitting at my chair.
"there is one more thing." ian said. "if youre up for it, im promoting you to be a cast member on squad" i stood there and freeze.
"what? why? dont you need me to edit and design merch and all of that. whos going to do that?" i panicked.
"well you see here. its not that we dont want you to do that stuff. over the years we have grown to see you work and put out these amazing ideas and as a group we discussed and we want you to be part of the smosh casting list. youre funny and talented in every single way. and dont worry about editing. we have so many other editors. and who says you have to stop designing merch?" he explained.

i sat there and thoight if this would be a good decision for me to make.
"youre going to have to give me a little bit to collect myself and decide" i said eating my donut.
i an nodded and everyone left except for shayne.
"im sorry if i stressed you out. i just thought you would be a great fit." he said.
"no. its all good shayne. " i said throwing my napkin away. "i just need to think about it. i havent been in front if a camera before."
"okay cool.." he said scratching his neck.
"are you good?" i asked him as he awkwardly turned around.
"yeah. do you want to hang out tonight after work?" he asked. he sounded a bit nervous.
"yeah of course!"
"okay cool.." he said walking out.
i dont know what that was about but oh well.
noah walked in right after.
"hey dude" i said as he walked in.
"y/n, i need to tell you something" he said.
i worried.
"yea?"
"shayne is interested in you" he bursted out.
"hm? why would he be? hes my best friend"
"well yeah but i was talking to him the other day and he said ever since his girlfriend left him, that he cant stop thinking about you and how much he like.. loves you. its weird" he said
"well. idk. i guess we will see what happens tonight lol" i said pulling up one of the videos i needed to edit.
"well just. becareful please. dating someone that works with you can be dangerous."
"yeah yeah okay noah."
he left the room and i started to edit the video.
god if this is true i wouldnt know what to do. i havent really seen him like that before.

__________4:00pm monday_____________

it was tome for food. usually on mondays the office does a giant pizza party to cheer everyone from monday blues.
i threw my chip in at ian and gave him the good news.
"i think im going to take the promotion ian. i think it will be fun"
"awesome y/n cause we need you next week for every Gordon Ramsey cooking show ever."
"thats so random"
"thats the point" he said taking the money "ill be back in a bit. "

i made my way into the room with noah and the other smosh cast in it.
"hey guys" i said sitting next to shayne.
he instantly jumped up and left. noah gave me that look.
"well okay then" courtney rolled her eyes.
"well what yall doing?" i asked.
"trying to figure out names for future smosh summer games" keith said.

we all sat quietly for a moment
"how about Smosh Summer Games: At the Beach!" i spitted out.
they all looked at me.
courtney instantly wrote that down. "i like that one."
"how bout survival island" Olivia suggested.
everyone ooed at that.

everyone continued to talk and shayne came back in and sat far away.
i texted him.

you- what is going on with you shayne?

S- i dont want to talk about it.

you- no please do because you wont sit next to me or talk to me. did i do something wrong?

s- no

you- then what?

S- i will talk to you about it later.. i cant right now. im sorry.

i rolled my eyes and continued to listen to everyones ideas for the games.
