We decided instead of flagging down a taxi we would just walk. It wasn't that far to walk and it was a beautiful day and luckily I had my sunglasses in my bag because the sun was so bright I needed them. We finally got there and Ericka was basically bursting with excitement. After a few hours of Q&A's and a lot of laughing it was finally time to meet all the YouTubers. Ericka dragged me into a line of people and she was on her tiptoes trying to look ahead of all the people. "I may have just ran into a line Katie, I don't who line this is but I just want to meet someone. I'm sorry" she rambled and replied with "I don't care as long as we can meet someone!" The line we were in was longer than any of the others, Ericka and I grew closer to the front and I searched the room to see where we should go next then I felt someone shaking me frantically. "Ahh what? What happened?" I exclaimed, " We're in the Jasper line! OMG! I... Will... Meet... The... Caspar... Lee!" Ericka kept taking breathes between each word. "Calm down! Yes, you will meet the love of your life." I teased, Ericka responded with a friendly punch. Ericka took out her camera and started fangirling over Caspar.

After half an hour of waiting in the line Erika and I were now at the front. "Are you ready? We're next!" Ericka whispered in my ear. I had fangirled over Joe since I was 15! And now I was going to finally meet the Joseph Sugg. I watched as the girls that were meeting Joe and Caspar wave them goodbye, one of the girls was crying which made me giggle a little. Then Ericka grabbed my hand and she flung me at Joe while she ran and engulfed Caspar in a hug. I stumbled and fell to my knees right in front of Joe Sugg, I could feel my face start to burn up and I could tell I was bright red.

"Need a hand?" A deep husky voice asked and a hand touched mine. I instantly relaxed and Joe helped me to my feet "Umm... I'm so sorry..." I muffled "Hey it's all good I fall over all the time! What's your name?" He asked, "I'm... Umm..." Ericka interjected "She's Katie!" Then she returned to Caspar. "You have a beautiful name, it suits you." I started twirling a strand of hair that had fallen out of my bun around my finger, in my other hand was my phone with my ThatcherJoe phone case. "Here let's take a few pictures," Joe reached his hand towards my phone. I handed him my phone and I opened the camera up and he put his arm around my waist, pulling me close to him. He took a lot of selfies of us and then took a few cheeky ones of himself. He paused for a few minutes and I could see he was typing something but what was it? He then continued to sign my phone case. He kept making jokes which made me laugh. Once he was finished he handed me my phone and opened his arms wide and he hugged me tight and it felt right but just before I said goodbye I asked if I could take his photograph, he made a small joke which made me giggle and then he agreed.

I always loved taking photos of people and I wouldn't mind having a pictures of his perfectly chiseled face. I took my camera out of my bag and tried to find the perfect position with the best lighting. "Don't move!" I exclaimed I took a couple snaps and smiled at how good they turned out. Joe embraced me in his arms again but this time was different, Joe whispered in my ear "I'm gonna have to see the photos later," it made the corners of my lips curl into a small smile. I practically had to drag Ericka away from Caspar, we only got to meet Zoe because we had spent so much time with Joe and Caspar.

We met Zoe and she was so lively and vibrant. I couldn't stop smiling because she was so happy. Ericka and I took selfies with her and she signed a photo Ericka had taken. Zoe was so lovely and she was just like her videos. We began to leave as the place emptied but we managed to get a couple of quick pictures with Jack & Finn and Alfie. This made our day perfect.

On the walk back to the hotel I couldn't stop the words Joe had said to me running through my head, what did he mean? Did he want to see me again? Of course he didn't! He probably meant he'd see them if I posted them on Twitter or something. All Ericka talked about on the walk was Caspar. But I couldn't listen to her because I couldn't stop thinking about Joe.

We got back to our hotel and ordered room service as soon as we got to our room. I ordered a burger and chips with vanilla cheesecake and Ericka ordered a whole 12 inch pizza for herself and she got chocolate fudge cake. Once I had eaten we both changed into some pj's and I looked through my phone at the photo from today, Joe was so perfect in the photos. I grabbed my camera out of my bag so I could look at the photos of Joe again. I was taken away at how perfect he looked in just one photo. "Kate, Kate!" I heard Erika groan, "Whatcha need? I asked, she replied with "Firstly you are way to perky, secondly I've eaten far too much and thirdly your phone is buzzing." I grabbed my phone and checked the screen, it was a reminder. I unlocked my phone and looked at the reminder in detail, it read 'Call Joe;)' then an eleven digit number followed. I dialed the number and the husky voice that I first heard today answered.

"Finally! Hello Katie."
