Hooked / C.B

"Hey, Colbs." I say walking into his apartment. He was waiting for me on the couch. "Hey beautiful. You ready?" He asked standing up.

I smile while I go up to him and give him a quick hug. He grabbed his keys so I guess he'll be driving.

"I figured we could eat at Tender Greens, if that's okay." He told me as we walked to the elevator. "Yeah, that's fine." I take my hand and lace our fingers together as we walk. I wonder when he's gonna ask me out.

I don't know if I should wait, or just grow some balls and ask him myself. I really like him, love him even, and there's no denying that I wanna be with him. I just shrug it off and try to not think about it.

He drives us to Tender Greens, which wasn't too busy. "I guess the earthquake freaked everyone out." Colby told me as he looked around. "You should've seen Luke when it happened, he looked like he could shit himself." I'm happy he's not jealous of Luke, he understands how he's like an older brother.

I actually had a good time eating with Colby, we talked and made jokes the whole time. We were now walking down the walk of fame, looking at everything. "Did I tell you how I was in a David Dobrik vlog?" David is the only youtuber I knew before Sam and Colby and I like his stuff.

"Were you really?" I ask smiling as we walk side by side. "It was a prank on Jason, I wish you could've seen it." I wish I could've seen it too. I bet it was hilarious. As we were walking, some pop rocks started going off.

"Pop rocks remind me of my dad." I say making him look down at me. "Why?" He chuckled. As we walk, our hands would graze, feeling warm when they did. "Cause my pop rocks." I joke making him laugh. "You're such a dork, Vee." He took my hand and laced our fingers together.

I couldn't help but smile knowing he's holding my hand in public. "You're holding my hand." I softly tell him as he swings our arms. "I know. I wanna show you off. I can't hide you forever." He flirted as I got an idea in my head.

"Why don't we do a video for your channel then." I suggest as he stops in his tracks. "Let's do it." We walked to his car and drive to our apartment complex. When we get to his apartment, he started setting up, which honestly made me nervous.

I know how protective his fans were of him and I didn't want them hating me. We've posted pictures of each other on Instagram so they're already speculating it. But I don't want us hidden anymore. Even though we aren't technically dating.

"Vee, you ready?" He asked as I nodded my head. I push the record button for him as he sits on the couch. "Hey guys. Today, I have a little sit down video for you guys. And I have a special guest for you. Come here Vee." He slapped the spot next to him as I came over, smiling.

"Hey." I do a small wave to camera as he watches. "And today, we're gonna be doing a sit down video and talking to you guys. You ready?" He asked as I nodded my head yes. "Okay, first question. How'd we first meet?" He read out loud as I remember the moment.

"He was unpacking the uhaul as I was coming home from work and ended up bringing up a pair of clothes." I explain while picturing it like it was yesterday. "And that's when I figured out that we were neighbors." He told the audience, well the camera.

"That was easy, do a better one." I joke, forgetting the camera was on us. "Okay, do you remember the first thing I said to you?" He asked while smirking. I sat there for a minute while thinking about it. I jumped up when I remebered.

"I asked if you needed any help unpacking and told you how I lived in the building and you asked if I was sure." I say as he lookes shocked. I just shrug as I lean back on the couch. "I have a good memory." I position myself to make myself more comfortable.

"Here's a good question. Can you read me by looking into my eyes?" I ask, curious of what the answer is. I honestly wanted to know if he could or couldn't because I could read him by looking at him. "Of course. Right now you're happy but nervous." I didn't expect that honestly.

I couldn't help but smile when he had told me that. "What do you think of my family?" I ask knowing he's met my family. Or at least most of my family.

"I love your family. My top three favorite members of your family is probably your dad, brother, and grandma." He laughed as I remembered my grandma having a crush on him.

"Guys, my grandma has the biggest crush on him. When they first met, she literally pulled him away." I laugh as he does the same. "I didn't know how to get away." He laughed along with me. We ask each other questions and talked about our trip to Hawaii.

"I have one last question for you." He locked his phone and placed it under his lap. "Oh really? What is it?" I smugly say as he smirks over at me. I can tell he's nervous about something so it made me nervous about it.

"Would you like to be my girlfriend?" My heart stopped as I turned my head over to him. I can't believe he actually asked me. "Only if you wanna be my boyfriend." I sarcastically say as he rolls his eyes jokingly. "Of course I wanna be your boyfriend." He said all cutely as we stare at each other.

"Then I would love to be your girlfriend." I'm so happy right now. I'm finally dating the person who makes me so happy. We started to lean in to kiss until Colby glanced over at the camera. He shook his head no as he covered the lens with his hand.

He then looked back at me and crashed his lips onto mine. Nothing could make me happier than right now.
