The Return [WIP]

Chapter 2

Keith's POV

Olivia and I got to work early. A few staff were here in the office, but other than that it was pretty quiet. We headed to our section and set our stuff down. I sat, going on my phone. Ian walked in, "Hey guys, what're you doing here so early?" 

"Olivia said something about decorating? I don't know but I had to come since she's my ride." I replied, giving a glare at Olivia. She laughed, grabbing bags from under her desk. "Ignore what he said. I wanted to welcome the new member. I felt like being actually nice, plus I just feel bad for whoever they are." 

"Not a bad idea Olivia. He's going to be in the office over there" He pointed and grabbed two of the bags. "I'll help. What about you Keith?" I sighed and got up, grabbing a party hat, putting it on. "There happy?" I sat back in my chair as Olivia gave me a glare. I shot finger guns at her and went back to my phone, smiling.

Noah's POV

I walked into the upstairs office with Shayne and Courtney to see decorations all over the walls, ceilings, and tables of food. Okay, THIS is heaven. I put out my hand to grab a handful of chips and felt a slap on my wrist. "No, no noo. This is for the new member! I came an hour early for this you know."

"Yeah Noah, she put a LOT of hard work into this," Shayne replied, with a serious face. Not even 5 seconds later we burst out laughing. Olivia gave us a glare, putting party hats on us. "There we go. Just please try to be polite for once, we don't want to scare the new member off." Shayne crossed his arms, giving a mischievous look. "Actually we're missing one more thing." He said, grabbing a party hat while pulling the string. "Hopefully this won't hurt.." Olivia ran screaming as Shayne chased her. Courtney just followed slowly in the back, rolling her eyes. Okay, now THAT was weird. I shrugged and walked into our section, ignoring it.

2 Hours Later

Shayne's POV

I was sitting at Olivia's desk with Keith playing heads up. I watched as Olivia tried to hint at what Keith was. She couldn't stop laughing, and god was is adorable. No, it wasn't Shayne. Shes your friend. Courtney is seriously right next to you. I tried to clear my head and focus myself on Courtney but just then Ian rushed in. "Come into the main workspace, fast!" 

He grabbed one of the kazoos and motioned for us to come. We followed and met with the Smosh Games staff and others, getting in some type of welcoming formation line. "Wait here," Ian told us, as he got in the elevator. Everyone was talking with each other, and I found myself next to Olivia. "So you excited?" I asked. She nodded, smiling. "Totally." We both looked at each other for a few seconds until someone quieted us down. The elevator made a ding sound and the doors opened.

Ian came out with the one and only, Anthony Padilla. Everyone cheered, glad to see him back. Once things calmed down, Ian got our attention. "Alright, alright. Yes,  Anthony is back. I'm just as excited as you guys, but let's get this party started first! Everyone, you get the day free of work. Vlog if you want, work if you want, but you are welcome to stay here all day." People clapped again and spreaded out to the tables. It seemed like everyone was happy, but it wasn't the same case for me.

Before Anthony left, we had a little beef. Actually no, a lot. It was ever since Smosh Winter games. But I won't bring that up. I just can't believe he's back. I tried to clear my mind by going to our group. Keith was the first to say something. "Man, this was definitely unexpected. I can't believe he's back!" 

"Me either dude, I'm so stoked!" Noah replied, joyful. Just then Anthony walked up to us. "Hey guys, this is pretty awesome." he played with one of the ceiling decorations hanging down. "Yeah, Olivia dragged me here an hour early just to set it up." Keith glared at Olivia.

 "Really? Damn Olivia, thanks." He smiled at her as Olivia giggled.

 "Hah, uh yeah totally. It's nothing." We stood there for a second then Anthony spoke up, once more. "Well, you guys are welcome to come to the after party tonight at my place." Seriously? He already has one here. How much worse can this guys ego get? Then he caught my eye. "Oh and Courtney your boyfriend can come too I guess." Okay, that pissed me off. "Ohh, so 'Courtney's boyfriend'. I see. I'm sure you remember me as more." I replied. He laughed, "Hm, I don't recall. Sorry, bud." He shrugged and walked away. This is going to be fun.
