"your phone is going off" my best friend Jade says picking up my phone off the table and handing it to me

"who is it?" she asks

"trent" i say sighing and accepting the call, as well as placing it on speaker so that Jade can hear

"Trent" i sigh 

"Lottie" he sighs imitating me but i just laugh as soon as i hear him do it in his thick scouse accent

"what is it now bro, you just called me an hour ago, this better not be about your fallout with Andy because i honestly have had enough"

"no its not about that, basically the london boys want to set up a mate of ours and who better than you, you'll genuinely like him, like he's exactly your type"

"if he plays football then its over"

"give him a chance"

"trent, your basically my brother i love you, but you know well ive got enough fame on me and i don't need anymore, this much is enough"

"lottie please, no one said you had to tell people"

"fine as long as its an indoor thing because its freezing outside, its still february you know"

"THANK YOU SO MUCH CHAR I LOVE YOU, ILL SEND YOU THE DETAILS"

"love you too trent" i roll my eyes

i look up at Jade

"are you serious? you agreed to go on a date, this is a day i never saw coming lottie"

"its trent, he's essentialy my brother i honestly can't say no to that idiot anymore, besides its just one date, like no one said i had to like him, its probably not going to work out and im just going to go back to my usual single self

"well, you know what this means lottie"

"WERE GOING SHOPPING WOO HOO"

i am a little chaotic child

i am immature, that is what i am

shopping is one of the best thing to ever exist in this life, its like a therapist, actually its more like drugs, it gives me that dopamine, you know?

.

i work as a media presenter for many studios, from Ladbible, to BR to ESPN and even BBC sometimes

i love my Job, i do the coolest stuff and not all of its is just serious ass talking, in fact most of my work is informal, like i do a lot of comedy interviews, like do you expect me to be able to do a serious interview with Jack Whitehall? of course not

along with this stuff i have a youtube channel where i do a lot of comedy stuff with celebrities, which i also enjoy, i have quite a large following over my social medias, and things like that give me some influence and fame

my private life i like to keep private, but every now and again the papparazi catch the odd thing or two. in fact my biggest enemy is the papparazi, they always show up at the worst times and can never bother to respect my or anybody's privacy, ive had to take legal action on one group of papparazi who went so far as to follow me all day for a couple days, basically stalking me

i hate fame sometimes, like im so grateful for it but then when you have moments when you can't control it, it gets in your head and it never ends well

im mostly renouned for doing football interviews a bunch, which i got into very young, due to the fact my cousin is Trent Alexander-Arnold, that itself is a bunch of drama he brings me into, and every time he tries to introduce me to his friends rumors are made and things go shit

luckily for the past year or so, ive been able to do what i want, my fame is still there and growing, but people can seem to respect my privacy a bit more nowadays, in fact i know a couple of Trents friends who i hang out with whenever im in Liverpool. i haven't been able to date anybody, as the PR would have a whole field day if they found out, but even as things have calmed, the few dates i went on didn't really work out

.

after me and Jade go shopping, i go home and she heads back to her flat.  i check my phone, to see that Trent had sent me the guy's details, and since i had no idea who it was, i was shocked to see it was a saved contact

'money mase'

we had briefly spoken once when Trent had come down to London and i bumped into him and his friends while they were at a pub, i joined them for a single drink and i got to know a couple of them including Mason

i text him

.

money mase 

hello mase

hello lottie

didn't expect you to be the one taking me out

yeah i didn't expect you either ngl

no one actually told me who i was taking out

so when are we going out?

.

"JADE" i say as soon as she accepts the call

"yeah?"

"you won't believe who it is"

"who, i need to know"

"bloody mason mount"

"you know him don't you?"

"ive spoken to him before"

"well at least it won't be awkward"

"yeah i think it still might be"

"you have to be confident luv"

"ill try my best"

"anyways i don't know how to give date advice so you better call dimz"

"yes yes yes" i say ending the call

.

i ring amelia

"Amelia?"

"LOTTIE, damn we haven't spoken in a while"

"yeah! i know right, we really need to meet up"

"agreeed, me, you and Jade, y'know, the golden trio"

"yessss, anyways how are you doing?"

"yeah im great, just doing a bit of editing"

"don't remind me of the amount of editing i have, im literaly thinking about hiring an editor or just upload less"

"girl you should totally upload less, im uploading every couple months and im as good as ever" she jokes

i just start dying of laughter

"anyways, any specific reason your calling?"

"yeah actually i need some date advice from the chicken shop date queen"

"of course lovely, just put on a good character is what you need to do"

"no i don't think your getting me dimz, im going on a proper date, like a real one?"

"oh my gosh i never thought id see the day"

"its for trent really, i keep telling him no with a bunch of stuff, he's like my brother, and then today he was like can i set you up with a friend, and so like i had to agree"

"well, uhh, the only date experience i really have is from Aitch, but basically be yourself, and if your going to fuck, be safe about it"

"i don't know about that second part, but thank you"

"do you mind me asking who it is"

"mason mount"

"ooh, don't you like know him?"

"well ive spoken to him once and thats about it"

"so are you going to try and make it work?"

"well, i mean if it works out it works out you know?"

"yeah but ive met mason once you know, he literaly seems like the perfect person for you, like he has the same sense of humor as you, like im pretty sure he also loves game of thrones, Trent is the perfect matchmaker"

"well, i guess ill update you when im back tommorow"

"or the morning after"

we both die of laughter a bit, and after ending the call, i just watch netflix on my laptop until im so tired i fall asleep on the couch
