LONG ASS CHAPTER - YO WELCOME 😁
^Watch the video before reading the chapter^
As I was dreaming about becoming a YouTube star, I was woken up by the familiar sound of my phone ringing. I groaned before crawling towards my small nightstand and disconnecting the phone from the charger. With one look at the screen in front of me, my eyes widened and my heart began to beat faster.
It was Grayson.
I accepted the call and brought it up to my right ear as I lay back onto the bed.
"Hey y/n, are you by any chance free today?"
"If you don't count getting up in the morning."
"I'm so sorry, did I wake you?"
"Nah you're cool, I needed to get up anyway."
"So anyway Ethan and I are filming a video soon and nobody is around to help us, would you mind coming round and giving us a hand?"
"Yeah sure, I'll be round your place in an hour."
"Thank you so much y/n, you are a lifesaver! I'll text you the address."
"Coolio, see you later."
"See ya."
*An hour later* (Cause ya girl is lazyyyyy)
I eventually parked my car in front of the twins' house, admiring how amazing it looked before getting out and walking towards the front door.
Before I could ring the doorbell, it was opened by a very tired and stressed out Grayson. He wore a black shirt and black sports shorts with his hair messy yet absolutely perfect.
"Thank you so much for doing this." Grayson said as we both entered the house. I followed him across the living room and into his room.
"It's absolutely fine. Where is Ethan?" I asked whilst Gray sat in front of his computer, typing away.
"He went to get some props for the video. Don't know when he'll be back."
I nodded and sat on the edge of his bed, pulling out my phone to answer messages that my parents sent.
As Gray and I were minding our own business, a man walked into the room which caused both of us to look up at him.
"I'm just editing a few more photos, then I'll be out." He said to Grayson.
"Cool man, have you heard from Ethan?"
"Last time we talked was last night, don't know what he is doing."
Grayson's eyes shifted to mine and then back to the man's. "Bryant, this is y/n. Y/n this is our friend Bryant."
"Nice to finally meet you, heard things about you." Bryant stated as we shook hands.
"Good things I hope." I replied, putting my phone down onto the bed.
"Definitely."
That's when Grayson's phone started to ring. Our heads shot to his direction as he scanned the screen, his eyes widened with relief. "Yo." Grayson spoke into the phone.
"Yo bro, are you going shopping?" Ethan's voice echoed through the speaker.
"Oh shit! I forgot about that, I will head out now."
"Alright, make sure you get everything on the list. I also sent you a few things because I need to pick the stuff up from another store, but trust me bro it's gonna be worth it."
"Alright, give me about an hour and a half."
"Cool, see you soon. Bye."
Grayson hung up and placed his phone in the pocket of his shorts. "Sorry y/n, but I will be out for a bit. I will be back as soon as I can."
Grayson grabbed his keys off of his desk and rushed out of the room, the front door closing a few seconds after. It was just me and Bryant, who was now giggling.
"What's up with you?" I asked him, standing up from the bed and walking out of the room as he followed me.
"We're pranking Gray." He giggled, causing me to stop and turn around with wide eyes. Bryant's phone began to ring as a smile grew on his face. He threw himself onto the couch before raising his phone to his face. "What's up, E?"
"Yo Bryant, is Gray gone?"
"Yep. Holy shit Ethan you look so weird dude!" I peered behind Bryant's back to see Ethan with makeup on his face as well as fake facial hair around his mouth.
"Y/n is with you!?" Ethan yelled which caused Bryant to turn around and smile at me.
"Yeah, she was supposed to help you guys film."
"Ah that's perfect! How do I look y/n?" Ethan asked.
"Absolutely horrible." I responded, making the others laugh. "I wanna get in on this."
"All you need to do is distract him, I'll text or call you when I need you to do something."
"So should we set up the cameras?" Bryant asked, followed by a nod from Ethan.
I helped Bryant set up the cameras which took longer than I thought it would. Grayson came back half way through setting stuff up since he forgot something, but didn't suspect anything.
After we set up all the cameras, Bryant filled me in on what was going to happen. I couldn't help but get excited until Grayson came into the house with a bunch of props.
"I'll be in my room if you guys need me." He stated before disappearing down the corridor.
"Yo Gray! Do you want Starbucks?" Bryant yelled.
"Nah I'm good bro, thanks anyway." Grayson yelled back, causing Bryant to sigh.
"Do you want anything, y/n?"
"I'll have a mocha frappuccino please."
"Cool, I'm just gonna text Ethan the order." Bryant looked down at his phone for a while, turning it off once he received a message from Ethan. "He's going to text you when he is outside the house. When he does, go to the bathroom so that Gray can get your order. I'm going to have a shower." He said before walking towards the bathroom.
I made my way into Gray's room to see him typing away once again, looking more stressed than before.
"He'll be here soon, Grayson. We will get the video done by the end of the day." I reassured him, coming closer to him so that I was right behind him.
"I know, I just can't help but worry. It's an anxiety thing." Grayson mumbled, his eyes still glued to the computer screen. I grabbed a spare chair and placed it next to him before sitting on it, watching him in focused mode. His jaw clenched as his arms flexed whilst his fingers danced across the keys. I couldn't help but appreciate him and take in what was in front of me, he was gorgeous to say the least.
After a while, my phone buzzed which caused me to look at it, seeing Ethan's name pop up. "Hey Gray, do you have another bathroom? Bryant is taking a shower in the one next door." I asked as his eyes left the computer and landed on me.
"Down the hall and your second right." He stated, looking back at his work.
"If my order comes, can you get it please?" I asked, Grayson responding with a nod. I quickly got up and left the room, trying to find where the second bathroom was. Once I found it, I entered and closed the door behind me before letting out a huge sigh. I heard the doorbell sound followed by Grayson's footsteps, I was so nervous that I didn't notice myself holding my breath. As my heart began to beat faster, the front door closed which cued me to get my drink and call Ethan.
I opened the door to see Grayson walking towards me with my drink in his hand. Once I thanked him and took it from him, I noticed that some of the drink was already gone. "Grayson!" I yelled as I heard him giggle like a little child. He returned to his room as I rushed into the living room with a massive smile plastered on my face.
My phone buzzed right on cue as I answered the FaceTime request.
"He's in his room right now, how are we doing?" I asked after seeing Ethan displayed on my phone with Emma inside a car.
"I'm about to sneak into the backyard. I'm still shaking, he didn't even notice me y/n!" Ethan panted as he placed his hand on his chest. "Now, this is what we are gonna do."
Ethan began telling me the instructions of the plan as I listened carefully, trying to remember the information.
"Got it?" Ethan asked as Emma stopped the car.
"Got it."
"Emma, you ready to start the call?"
Emma nodded in response, causing Ethan to take in a deep breath.
"Good luck, Ethan." I said before hanging up, waiting for my cue.
I was sitting on the couch whilst facing the backyard, my knee bouncing up and down with excitement. As on cue, Ethan appeared in his "stalker" form which creeped me out. He stood behind the pool with a slouched posture and hands playing with his wig. It was time to put my acting skills to good use.
"Grayson." I said with a worried tone in my voice. "Grayson!" I yelled again, this time seeming more scared.
"What's wrong, y/n?" I heard Grayson shout as his footsteps gradually became louder.
"You're gonna want to see this." He ran into the living room and rushed towards me. Once he stood beside me, I pointed to the garden. He followed my gaze to see Ethan walking around the backyard, his eyes wide open with shock.
"What the fuck!?" Grayson muttered as he slowly creeped closer to the window. I followed behind him, until he stopped me. "Stay here." He demanded in a low husky voice with a serious expression. I would be lying if I didn't say that it was hot.
I watched as Grayson opened the window and made his way towards Ethan. Within seconds he was running after the fifty year old stalker, but once he reached him, Ethan put his hands in front of him to prevent Grayson from doing anything rough. Grayson placed his hand in front of his mouth, slowly stepping away from Ethan in shock.
"I can't believe it's you!" Grayson yelled in disbelief as I strolled out of the house and into the backyard with a grin on my face. Both of the twins swivelled towards me once I walked around the pool to Gray.
"She was in on it!?" Grayson asked.
I nodded my head, making him grab me by the arm and rub his fist against my head. "GRAY, YOU MESSED UP MY HAIR!" I yelled.
"You messed up my hair!" Ethan and Grayson mocked me as I raised my eyebrow.
The three of us went back inside the house to show Gray what cameras we used to film the reactions, he was so impressed with them.
Later, Emma came in and welcomed me into a hug. "Did it work?" She asked as her eyes shifted from me to Ethan.
"It worked so well." He responded as both of them high-fived each other.
"Come on, let's go film the outro." Grayson stated whilst wrapping his arm around Ethan's shoulder.
"We'll leave you guys to it then." I said.
"Sorry that I brought you here for nothing, y/n."
"Don't be, this was fun. If there are anymore upcoming pranks, let me know."
"Same here." Emma cheered with a massive smile on her face.
"We'll see you guys later." The twins waved goodbye to Emma and I before we headed out of the house and into our cars.
I couldn't help but have a huge grin on my face as I gripped the steering wheel. I finally found an amazing group of friends.
