Izzy's PoV:

"Are you ready?" Squid asked me. He had his mouse hovering over the upload button for our vlog. I nodded. I was so nervous I could barely speak. He clicked the button and a loading symbol came up. After about a minute it said, "Your video has been uploaded."

We looked at each other and I quickly opened YouTube on my phone as Squid found the video on his laptop. When I opened the video there were already five comments:

Awesome Miner:

OMG that's soooo cute!

AshDubh

You guys are so brave to do this! Good luck on no hate!

The Diamond Pickaxe

Wow! I wasn't expecting that!

Libby's gaming

I wish that was me!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now that one made me angry. As she's basically saying that she wishes she had gone into care and had a rubbish life! But then I saw the last one.

BallisticDubh

Izzy, she looks really ugly and she's come from a rank care home, did anyone else see that she had a cut lip? Clearly she had been in a fight! We must persuade Squid to get rid of her! He deserves better! Or, we could say, she doesn't deserve him!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Squid pulled me into a hug and picked me up. I kept my arms wrapped around his neck. As he placed me down on the sofa and sat next to me. He hugged me again and I felt happier. I didn't care that I was getting all this hate, all I cared about was that iBallisticSquid had adopted me. I heard someone else come in the room so I turned my head to see who it was. It was Nicole and she came and sat down next to me. I let go of Squid and turned around to hug Nicole. She wrapped her arms around me and I started to fall asleep even though it was only 7pm.

When I woke up I could feel that Nicole still had here arm around me. I smiled to myself but then realised that Nicole was sniffing, it sounded like she was crying. I sat up and looked at her, her eyes were bloodshot and she was staring at her phone. "What's wrong?" I asked her, really worried that something had happened to Squid as he wasn't here. She just handed me her phone. It was on her latest post on Instagram. I scrolled through the comments and I realised why she was crying, people were hating on her. There were arguments about her happening in the comments and, although there were lots of nice comments, there was almost the same amount of hate. I put her phone down and hugged her. "Just ignore them, they don't know how nice you are." I said trying to comfort her. "Izzy I'm sorry." She said through her tears. "For what?" I questioned. "I only wanted to adopt you after you stood up to that girl who said horrible things about me. I'm so self-centred!" She said bursting into tears again. "Look, not everyone wants to adopt, it's a big thing! I not surprised that you didn't want to adopt me. You decided to though and that's the main thing. But, back to the hate, you should talk to Squid about it, he told me I should talk to him if I get loads of hate, so you should too." I told her. "No. I don't want to give Squid something else to think about. I hate it when people feel sorry for me!" She said shaking her head. I nodded in agreement, "I hate it too." Although I knew she should tell Squid I decided to leave it for now.

Squid had set up my computer and we had got back my Minecraft account and my YouTube channel. When I checked it I had got loads of old comments asking me where the content had gone and so many new ones from the vlog that me and Squid had done. He had put the link to my channel in the description.

"Izzy do you want to do some hunger games with me for your channel?" Squid asked me. "That would be amazing! But I don't have a mic or anything." I reminded him. "That is where you are wrong! While you were asleep me and Stamps went out to get you all the hardware you need while Tom and Ash sorted out the software!" He explained. "Thank you!" I said.

We sat down and went on the Emerald Isle sever and played the Hollywood map. Me and Squid went and did the tree troll and, amazingly, got to the death match! We killed the other guy and then fought each other. Squid won, annoyingly. We then played another round, in which pretty much the same thing happened again, for Squid's channel. Squid then taught me how to edit and we both uploaded our videos.

One hour after I had uploaded the video I read through the comments there was some hate but not nearly as much I thought there would be which was great!

I looked at my watch, 9pm. I was shattered so I got into my pyjamas then climbed into bed. Squid came in a few minutes later and climbed into my bed. "You don't have to do this you know, you should sleep with Nicole not me." I said to Squid. "Shhh. You just go to sleep don't worry about me." I was too tired to disagree so, once again I fell asleep in Squid's arms.

About 4 hours later I woke up, not because I had had a nightmare, but because I knew that Squid needed to be with Nicole. I turned over to face Squid. "Nightmare?" Squid said smiling at me. I shook my head, "No, Squid you need to be with Nicole. She's getting loads of hate and she's really upset." I explained. "How do you know?" He asked me. "When I woke up yesterday she was crying and she showed me." Squid nodded, "Are you sure you will be okay?" He asked me. I nodded but I wasn't sure and Squid could tell that. "I've got an idea." He said. He stood up, walked to the my side of the bed and picked me up, like he had done the very first day that I met him. I was so tired that I started to fall asleep as we walked out of my bedroom. Sqaishey came out of the bathroom as we walked past and she said goodnight to us. I heard her "awwww" as well which made me smile. Squid walked in to his and Nicole's bedroom and I saw her sit up. But by then I was pretty much already asleep. I heard Squid and Nicole talk a little but apart from that I didn't really know what was happening.
