00:00Okay, ready? On the count of three, we'll jump from the wall.
00:03Kiana, are you sure this is safe?
00:06What if we miss the air mattress?
00:08Guys, chill. We're not even that high up.
00:10I've seen people on TV do this. It'll be fun.
00:13Good news, when my friends jumped, they landed on the air mattress and were totally fine.
00:18Bad news, I missed the air mattress and got injured.
00:20Wait, let me start from the beginning.
00:22I'm Kiana from North Dakota, and you probably think I'm a moron for doing something so dangerous.
00:28But what can I say? Teenagers do stupid things sometimes.
00:31Don't pretend like you haven't.
00:32Before I continue, please like and subscribe.
00:35Luckily, when I got to the hospital, the doctor said I was fine, since I didn't jump from that high up.
00:39But I still had to wear an arm and leg cast for three freaking months.
00:44When I returned to school, everyone had heard what had happened and showered me with love,
00:48saying how relieved they were that I was okay.
00:51But then in math class, something strange happened.
00:53So today, we'll be doing exercises 8 and 10 in our workbooks.
00:58What about exercise 9, my good ma'am?
01:01Are you mocking my accent?
01:03Why, of course not, my love.
01:05You've got your accent, and I've got my accent.
01:08To the principal's office, now!
01:10I hadn't realized I'd been even talking in a British accent,
01:13but I went to the principal and told him what happened.
01:16I don't know why she's so angry.
01:18Maybe it's her time of the month, if you know what I mean.
01:21Kiana, stop with that British accent right now.
01:24I'm not doing one!
01:26The principal and I fought back and forth for a while, before he called my parents.
01:30Except I was still doing a British accent when they arrived without knowing it,
01:34and continued talking British for several days.
01:37Eventually, Mom and Dad took me to a doctor, since I was acting so strangely.
01:41And to my shock, the doctor told me I'd developed a brain condition as a result of my injury.
01:46It was called foreign accent syndrome, which meant I would always talk like a foreigner now.
01:52So I started talking in a British accent all the time.
01:55It wasn't a huge deal, but kids at school were confused that I'd completely switched my way of speaking.
02:01Most of them thought I was messing around, and it was annoying.
02:04And some British kids at school always felt I was making fun of them.
02:08As time passed, everyone started avoiding me because I made them uncomfortable.
02:11So, I was stuck having no friends and wanting my normal accent back.
02:17One afternoon, I was doing homework in the schoolyard, when suddenly, someone held out a diamond ring in front of my face.
02:24Here, take my promise ring that I spent $10,000 on for my stupid girlfriend.
02:28In fact, why don't I date you now instead of her?
02:31How about you give it to my sister, who you're apparently in love with?
02:35Ugh, not those two.
02:37Dean and Brielle were the hottest, most popular kids in school, and had been dating on and off since 9th grade.
02:43Since they were known for always fighting, I didn't take Dean's offer seriously and walked away.
02:48But a week later, someone rang our doorbell one morning, and I was shocked to see Brielle standing there.
02:54Kiana, right? I need to talk to you about something important.
02:57Uh, come in.
02:58My ex-boyfriend Dean is a monster.
03:01He cheated on me and made out with my sister.
03:04And now, I want revenge, and I need your help.
03:07Why do you need my help? You and I have barely even spoken before.
03:11Look, I know a lot of kids at school think you're weird, but Dean's always found you very attractive.
03:16I always catch him staring at you during class, and if he hadn't been with me, he probably would have asked you out.
03:21So, I was thinking, maybe you could get him to date you for a month.
03:26Then, you can make a TikTok fake crying and telling everyone that he hurt you and took advantage of you.
03:30I don't think anyone would take it seriously if I did it, since we're always fighting about one thing or another.
03:37Can you please do this for me?
03:39My head was spinning.
03:41First of all, did she just say that the most popular guy at school thought I was pretty?
03:46Well, if he was a cheating jerk, then maybe it didn't matter.
03:49But still, wow.
03:51Brielle begged me to help her out and went on and on about how much fun we could have taking Dean down together.
03:57Was she implying that we could be friends?
04:00I hadn't had a friend in so long.
04:03And now, I could be BFFs with the school Queen Bee, who could maybe help me make other friends.
04:08I just had to ruin the life of her awful ex-boyfriend.
04:11I'm in.
04:12That week, Brielle and I found an empty classroom during lunch to go over our mission.
04:16Step 1.
04:17Flirt with Dean and let him know you're interested.
04:20Smile at him during class.
04:21Give him a compliment.
04:22Or do a classic dropping your school books to get his attention.
04:25I hadn't flirted with any boy since before my injury.
04:28But I was confident I still had game.
04:30So when I saw Dean, I walked close to him and threw my textbooks onto the floor.
04:34But unfortunately, one of them landed on his foot and he screamed.
04:38Ow!
04:38Ow!
04:39My foot is broken!
04:40I'm gonna lose a foot!
04:41I'm so sorry!
04:43Dang it, I was supposed to get you to ask me out, not murder you.
04:46Oh, it's you, Kiana.
04:49Hot girl from history class who talks with a British accent, even though she's American.
04:53Yes, that's me!
04:55You poor thing.
04:56Getting hit with a textbook and having your girlfriend dump you.
04:59Actually, our breakup was mutual, so...
05:02I can only imagine what it must be like getting dumped.
05:05Thinking you'll be alone, single and pathetic forever.
05:09Um.
05:09But lucky for you, I'm gonna let you take me out to dinner.
05:13On a date.
05:14Really?
05:15You can even pick me up in a car and bring me flowers.
05:18Especially white roses, please.
05:20They're my favourite.
05:21But it's my gift to you.
05:24Dean immediately said yes.
05:26And I was so proud of myself for being so smooth.
05:29But unfortunately, my actual date wasn't very enjoyable.
05:33Because Dean was the most obnoxious guy ever.
05:36He complained about everything.
05:37The chairs made his butt hurt.
05:39The music was too loud.
05:40And when he bit into some spicy buffalo wings, he started crying and saying he needed to go to the hospital.
05:46I'm gonna die.
05:47I'm gonna die.
05:48I'm gonna die.
05:49Of course, because so many people have died eating buffalo wings.
05:54Finally, when the date was over, Dean dropped me off in his car.
05:58I can't believe I didn't ask you out earlier.
06:00Two years wasted with Brielle when I could have been the boyfriend of this beautiful goddess right here.
06:06He was looking at me with stars in his eyes.
06:09Oh, boy.
06:10I told Brielle everything over video chat.
06:12This is perfect.
06:14You've already got him wrapped around your little finger.
06:17In a month, you're gonna tear his heart to shreds like he tore mine.
06:21I really did have him wrapped around my finger.
06:24Dean texted me as soon as he woke up the next day and sent me like eight different heart emojis.
06:28How was he already so into me?
06:31When Dean saw me at school on Monday, he came up to me right away holding a stuffed tiger?
06:36Okay, babe, hear me out.
06:37So for our next date, how about we go to the carnival and you can witness my amazing skee-ball skills.
06:43I'll win you a tiger just like this.
06:46I knew I'd made a deal with Brielle, but this guy was turning out to be super annoying.
06:51Still, I went on three more stupid dates with him.
06:55One of which consisted of us cosplaying as MSA characters.
06:58We literally went to a restaurant dressed as them, and Dean even suggested reenacting a romantic fight scene.
07:05It was so embarrassing.
07:06But there was one silver lining.
07:09Brielle and I were becoming really good friends when we weren't scheming or talking about Dean.
07:14We hung out at the mall, had sleepovers, and painted each other's nails.
07:17One night, Brielle invited me to an exclusive party.
07:20But we had to go in separate cars because it would look suspicious if Dean's ex was hanging out with his current girlfriend.
07:26At one point during the party, I was hanging out with some of the popular girls near the refreshment table.
07:31And they were just going on and on about how lucky I was to be with Dean.
07:35He is quite lovely and very easy on the eyes, but between us, he's also a bit of a dog.
07:43He's obsessed with stuffed animals, cartoon movies, and even owns fuzzy slippers.
07:49Trust me, ladies, beneath that gorgeous physique lies the cringiest guy ever.
07:54Sorry that you think I'm so cringy.
07:59I turned around to see Dean standing behind me with a hurt look.
08:02Oh man, what was he doing here?
08:05Of course, this was a popular kids party.
08:07He walked off and I felt a little guilty, so I followed him.
08:11Dean, I'm sorry.
08:13I didn't mean what I said.
08:14Well, alright, I did mean it, but...
08:16You don't have to date me if you don't like me, Kiana.
08:19It's not a big deal.
08:20Just don't lead me on, because I actually like you.
08:24Oh please.
08:25No you don't.
08:26You're just looking for a rebound girlfriend since you broke up with Brio.
08:30Why would a guy like you, like an unpopular weirdo, like me anyway?
08:34Maybe because I don't think you're a weirdo.
08:36Maybe because I think your fake accent's adorable, and even though we have different interests,
08:41I've had a lot of fun on our dates.
08:43That's very sweet.
08:45How about we start over?
08:47No more crazy, overly romantic dates.
08:49We'll just take it slow and get to know each other.
08:52Dean seemed to really like that idea, and after our talk, I sort of started enjoying
08:57spending time with him.
08:58We'd do homework together and video chat at night.
09:00He definitely seemed like a sweet guy, which made it all the more confusing why he'd
09:05do something like cheat on his girlfriend.
09:07One morning, Brio and I were walking home from the gym.
09:10When Dean texted me to tell me he was sick with the flu, poor thing, I should stop by
09:15and bring him some soup.
09:17But he just said he has the flu.
09:18You don't want to get sick?
09:20I know, but he's all alone in bed and not able to do anything.
09:24I'll wear a mask.
09:25Trust me, Kiana, he's a millionaire who has chefs and servants waiting on him hand and
09:30foot.
09:31What?
09:31Do you want to spend time with him?
09:33No, of course not.
09:35I just feel, since I'm his pretend girlfriend, it's weird if I don't check up on him.
09:40I quickly went home and made Dean's soup that I brought to him.
09:43But when Dean opened the door to his room, my heart did a giant thump.
09:47He was shirtless and had the abs of a freaking Roman god.
09:52You cooked me soup?
09:53You're the sweetest girlfriend ever.
09:55I sat with him while he ate the soup in bed.
09:57It tastes perfect.
09:59Brielle used to do stuff like this for me when we first started dating, but then we started
10:03fighting a lot and she stopped doing nice things for me.
10:06Well, I don't think you have a rot to complain about, Brielle.
10:09You're the one who cheated on her and kissed her sister.
10:12She told me about it.
10:14We ran into each other.
10:16Okay, fine.
10:17I cheated on her.
10:18But that's only because we got into a huge argument and in a fit of rage.
10:22Brielle started talking about how handsome my best friend was and that she was going to
10:26leave me and date him.
10:28I thought she was serious, which is why I hit on her sister.
10:31But she wasn't serious and that's why we broke up.
10:34Right after that, I bought her that diamond promise ring.
10:37I guess it was both our faults.
10:39We both cared about each other.
10:40We just weren't working as a couple anymore.
10:43I was speechless as Dean told me all of this and suddenly it didn't feel right following
10:48through on the plan anymore.
10:50And the whole day at school on Monday, I avoided Brielle.
10:53But finally, she caught me reading a book in the school garden and asked me what was going
10:57on.
10:58All right, fine.
10:59I needed a bit of space from you.
11:00Dean told me the truth about what happened.
11:03How you threatened to date his best friend and that there was a misunderstanding.
11:07I know that's no excuse for what he did, but your whole revenge plan is over the top
11:11and I'm not following through with it.
11:13Okay, whatever.
11:15It was over the top and immature.
11:16I get it.
11:17So just break up with Dean now and don't talk to him anymore.
11:20What?
11:21I'm not allowed to talk to him now.
11:22Why would you want to?
11:24He's my ex-boyfriend.
11:25You don't have feelings for him or anything, right?
11:28I mean, I have spent a lot of time with him, so it'd be weird for us not to talk.
11:33Why do you care?
11:34Do you still have feelings for him?
11:36Brielle got really quiet and that's when it hit me.
11:39Of course she still loved him.
11:41He'd been her freaking boyfriend for two years.
11:44And worst of all, I could feel myself developing feelings for Dean too.
11:48There was only one thing I could do.
11:50Break up over text and never talk to the guy again.
11:53But as soon as I sent the message, Dean started calling and blowing up my phone.
11:57And 20 minutes later, I heard a knock at my bedroom window.
12:00Three guesses who had climbed onto my balcony.
12:03Kiana, I don't understand this.
12:05Why are you breaking up with me suddenly?
12:07Because I was never supposed to date you.
12:10Before I could stop myself, I ended up telling Dean all about my plan with Brielle and he was stunned.
12:16Okay, that is officially the most messed up thing Brielle has ever done.
12:21And I can't believe you'd agree to something like this.
12:24What kind of sick person are you?
12:26I just... I...
12:27What?
12:28I... I wanted to make a friend.
12:31Wait, did I just talk in my regular voice?
12:35The doctors had said foreign accent syndrome could go away with time.
12:38But that was the first time I'd spoken in an American accent since the incident.
12:42I immediately ran downstairs to tell my parents what had happened, completely forgetting about
12:46the drama with Dean and Brielle.
12:48My parents and I jumped up and down and cheered while Dean just stood there staring at me.
12:54He was probably thinking what a freak I was, so that probably meant he was over me.
12:58It sure seems like it anyway.
13:00He avoided both me and Brielle at school.
13:02Brielle was happy for me about my recovery and we both kind of pretended like the Dean drama
13:07never happened.
13:08But one day, she came over and dropped a bombshell on me.
13:11She was leaving the city and moving hours away.
13:14I was heartbroken.
13:16No, this is a good thing.
13:17Now you can be the most popular girl at school and date Dean.
13:21I talked with him the other day.
13:22He wants to be with you, Kiana.
13:24He's moved on from me, so if you guys want a date, go for it.
13:29But how would that make you feel?
13:31Don't you still love him?
13:33Yeah, I do.
13:34And it will hurt knowing he chose you over me.
13:36But I want you to be happy, Kiana.
13:38I know our friendship started with just you doing me a favor, but I've grown to care about you.
13:44You were there for me at one of the hardest times in my life.
13:47Suddenly, I saw a car pull up in the driveway, and it was Dean.
13:51He was coming to see me, probably to profess his love for me.
13:54He got out of the car, and he looked so handsome in the sunlight.
13:58I was ready to run into his arms and kiss him.
14:00But I didn't.
14:01I couldn't hurt my best friend like that.
14:03That's why I sent Dean home and told him I wasn't interested.
14:07Kiana, you don't have to do this.
14:09I'll get over my pain.
14:10You have my blessing to be with him.
14:12I know.
14:13And maybe I will one day, when you are over him.
14:16But I care about you more than him.
14:18You were there for me during the hardest time of my life.
14:22I'm gonna miss you so much, girl.
14:24I'm gonna miss you too.
14:25Good luck, Brielle.
14:33Good luck, Brielle.
