David took a deep breath as he walked out of his local USCIS office.
He felt like a weight had been lifted off his shoulders. One that he did not even realize was there.

His manager Jack, and David and Nickelodeon's lawyers followed him out the door.
The leading one stuck his hand out for a handshake.
"Well Mr. Dobrik, congratulations."
David pretended to shake the man's hand, but pulled him into big a hug instead.
"Thank you so much," David told him.

"Oh ah..." the lawyer laughed awkwardly. "You are welcome."
"I'm sorry, I'm just a little emotional." David confessed, letting the man go.
"It's no problem, we're happy to help."

After giving his own lawyers the same treatment, they went their separate ways.

David and Jack got into his Tesla.
"What do you say we go surprise some people?"

________________

All of David's friends were gathered at his house. He had told them that he had a major announcement regarding the TV show deal with Nickelodeon.
Other than Jack and Nickelodeon themselves, only his family already knew what it was.

David pulled the Tesla into the driveway and he and Jack entered the house.
He found all his friends gathered on the couch.

"There he is!" Heath yelled. "Mr. Nickelodeon host himself!"
Everyone laughed.

David placed his camera on the table in front of the TV, making sure it would capture their reactions.
Jack stood off to the side, holding a manila folder.

"Okay," David started. "I'm just going to get right to the point. You all know that I accepted Nickelodeon's offer to be the host of my own show..."
The group nodded.

"Well, I thought about it... and I realized I couldn't do it."
"WHAT?!" The group yelled.
David laughed.
"Hang on. I couldn't do it,because there was something missing..."

The group leaned forward in anticipation.

"I just needed to get this first..."

Jack handed David the folder.
David walked towards the group, stopping right in front of Natalie, who looked up at him expectantly. He handed it to her.

She stared at it for a few seconds.
"Open it," David encouraged her.

Although a bit confused, Natalie obeyed.
The group leaned forward as she opened the folder, curious to see what it contained.
Natalie pulled out a stack of papers.
Because her best friend was part of the DACA program, she immediately recognized the official seal at the top of the first document.

"David, what is this? Why are you showing me papers from the USCIS, WHAT DID YOU DO?!"
"Oh my God, Natalie, just read it!" David was already smiling widely.

Natalie slowly looked down and began to read the first document.
David watched as her eyes scanned over every word.
She suddenly stopped reading and looked up at him.
"What...?"
Natalie looked back at the paper, then to David again.
Her eyes were starting to water.

"David... is this what I think it is?"
"Yeah... it is."
Natalie stood up.
"David Julian Dobrik, if this is a prank, I will kill you."
David shook his head. "It's not a prank—"
"David, DO NOT fuck with me right now! IS. THIS. REAL."
David nodded, there were tears in his eyes now too.
"It's real," he whispered.
