Chapter 1: THE BOYS 🧑🏻‍❤️‍💋‍🧑🏼

Chapter Text

THE BOYS 🧑🏻‍❤️‍💋‍🧑🏼

 

Aby (admin) has created a group: Elliott, Kiwi, Ieuan, Mikey, Persi, and Tom (J's tour manager)

 

Aby: I've made this chat because he's getting all mopey again.

 

The sighs are becoming A LOT.

 

Mikey: You're not having to cut them out.

 

Or the longing looks off camera.

 

Ieuan: I have to hear it in person.

 

Kiwi: James is being as bad.

 

He keeps talking about James and it's driving us to the point of madness.

 

Tom: Please tell me Will is coming out for a show?

 

Aby: The only date he could feasibly make is Edinburgh in a couple weeks.

 

Even then he's only got a day off before and two days off after.

 

Tom: James has a day off after the gig, then the Brighton gig Friday evening.

 

Elliott: Their drive-through video is popping up again on TikTok and we've noticed an increase in new watches for the video, maybe we could do a driving video again?

 

Persi: Maybe hire a car, deck it out with Go-Pros, and have a race down to Brighton?

 

Aby: Who's going to race them though?

 

Tom: Well (sorry guys) Kiwi and Ieuan are going to be shooting media at both the Edinburgh and Brighton gigs.

 

Ieuan: We. Are. Cameramen.

 

Persi: Evidently you haven't seen the fancams on TikTok.

 

Aby: Oh I have 👀.

 

Ieuan: WHY ARE THERE FANCAMS OF US ON TIKTOK!!!

 

WHY ARE THEY ON YOUR FYP’S!!

 

MIKEY HAS MORE FANCAMS ON TIKTOK!!

 

Kiwi: Cause we're hot bro.

 

Elliott: No one knows I exist.

 

Kiwi: Also not to add a problem, but you can't have both the cameramen in the same car.

 

Mikey: Can they not just race the tour bus?

 

Also fancams?

 

Of me???

 

Tom: Nah, the band are all staying in a hotel that evening.

 

Only James and I were going to head down to Brighton. James for Otto, and me because I have to organise the get in.

 

Persi: @Mikey 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

 

Aby: Okay so who do we have available?

 

Me, Mikey, Ieuan, Kiwi, Tom?

 

Obviously WnJ.

 

Persi: If you need another girl on the other team I'm free?

 

Aby: Okay, and Persi.

 

If team one is WnJ, Kiwi, and me. And team two is Mikey, Ieuan, Tom, and Persi; then we'd have a good mix of the music crew and the London crew, also a good mix of people who are comfortable being the talent…We’ll stick Mikey in a tight shirt just incase.

 

Mikey: Why are we whoring me out??

 

I'm more than muscles.

 

Persi: Don't lie, we all know that as soon as you found out about the fancams you went looking on TikTok.

 

Aby: and liked them all.

 

Mikey: ...no I didn't.

 

Ieuan: We might need to ask Chris and Stephen if they're okay with this as they have both done similar race type videos before.

 

Aby: I know Will has been annoying Chris, I'll just add them to the chat and they can leave if they want.

 

Might as well add Harry too, don't want to leave him out of the fruity four chat.

 

Aby (admin) has added Chris, Stephen, and Harry to THE BOYS 🧑🏻‍❤️‍💋‍🧑🏼

 

Aby: Welcome to the chat where we discuss our personal hell that is Will and James being separated for longer than two months.

 

Chris: We aren't fruity!

 

Stephen: Oh come on Chris, it's not gay if it was a four-way.

 

Chris: You're not helping Stephen.

 

Persi: I think the multiple videos of you feeling up/biting/licking Arthur and George don't help.

 

Harry: She's got you there Chris.

 

Also hello new people 👋🏻

 

Persi: Hello Harry 🤗 

 

Harry: That might be the friendliest greeting I’ve had all week.

 

Persi: That’s tragic, I’ll have to keep doing it then.

 

Harry: Please do, I respond well to encouragement.

 

Aby: So Chris, Harry, Stephen. The people you might not have met are:

 

  • Persi - James' friend and cat-sitter. (She's also an amazing chef and has cooked on a couple of our food videos before.)
  • Kiwi - James' camera man.
  • Tom - James' tour manager.

 

Harry: She cooks?

 

Chris: Oh she cooks!

 

I've had some of the leftovers after the food videos and it was amazing.

 

Persi: Aww, thanks Chris 💜 

 

Harry: So…hypothetically, if I appeared in a food video, would I also get leftovers?

 

Persi: Hypothetically, yes. 

 

Practically, only if you're a good boy.

 

Harry: I can be a good boy.

 

I can also wash up.

 

Chris: He’s lying.

 

Stephen: To get this back on track, I'm fine with you using this race idea.

 

Chris: Same.

 

Harry: You know it'd be funny for us to join the race too as there have been allegations of Will and each of us.

 

It could be team WnJ Vs. The Crew Vs. Will's “ex’s”

 

Elliott: I feel like this is going to get expensive.

 

Aby: Same, but it's not a bad idea. More talent on the video would always be a positive in terms of views.

 

It'd be a long shoot for you guys.

 

It's a shame there's only three of you.

 

Ieuan: GEORGE!

 

CHRIS, GO GET GEORGE!!

 

Elliott: We are going to need a BIG sponsorship 😭

 

Chris: @Elliott I'll see if my people can help you find something/someone.

 

You can use some of my company’s Go-Pros.

 

I just need Will to stop being so sad at the office, it's bringing us all down.

 

George is up for the video too if it means reuniting the lovebirds.

 

Aby (admin) has added George C. to THE BOYS 🧑🏻‍❤️‍💋‍🧑🏼

 

Aby: You know it would be funny if you all set off later, like you all found out that WnJ are running off together.

 

Stephen: I've been meaning to make another drinking video with the guys, we could start in Manchester?

 

Chris: I'm not driving all the way again during the race!

 

@Stephen I'm down.

 

George: I can drive some of the way.

 

@Stephen me too, it's been ages since I've seen you.

 

Stephen: If it's an automatic I can drive too, it's a long journey and I'm feeling charitable in my old age.

 

Harry: I don't drive 😊

 

Chris: That's nothing to be proud of Harry.

 

Aby: Okay, provided we get the budget together we have Team WnJ Vs. The Crew Vs. The Ex’s.

 

Tom and Kiwi, You'll need to get James on board.

Me and Elliott will get Will on board.

Chris, you're in charge of The Exs.

 

Stephen: Why is Chris in charge! I'm the oldest!

 

Chris: @Stephen 🤨

 

Harry: Okay, Chris is in charge of our team.


Aby: Now the hard work begins.
