Chapter 165  [Bonus Chapter] 165 - I think I've become a fan

Seeing that this conversation could lead to something bigger, the girls paid more attention to it and realized that even though Jack was a minor character in the show, the producers had also taken care to give him a backstory and depth that characters like him didn't usually get.

It was great because it made him seem more like a real person than just a pretty face who would appear in one episode and never come back.

"Then let's go fishing together! I'll teach you how to fish! We'll stay in the boat and watch the bobbers in the pond go up, down, up, down, up, down..." Steve said laughing as he put his hand on Jack's shoulder and looked at him excitedly. U//ppTodat𝒆d fr/𝒐/m nô/v/e/lb(i)n.c(o)\/m

As soon as Steve said this, the camera showed the reaction of the other characters and the girls couldn't control themselves and started to laugh.

Both at seeing Harley happy but embarrassed by her father, and at Martha's facepalm at Steve becoming Jack's friend instead of a tough dad, even Ariel's surprise and excitement, which made the girls perk up and realize that maybe there was more to it than they'd realized.

But the strangest thing was Jack's reaction.

Instead of just getting excited, he started to get very excited, but excited to an extent that wasn't normal.

"Doesn't he know how to react?" Sarah wondered in confusion.

But before another girl could say anything, Steve asked exactly what they were thinking.

"Are you that excited about going fishing?" Steve asked, surprised at Jack's reaction.

"No... it's just that hearing you talk about fishing bobbers going up down, up down gave me inspiration for a song!" Jack replied excitedly.

The girls were shocked to hear Jack's answer.

"Wait, was he acting like that because he was thinking about how to make a song?!" One girl asked.

"Harley said he had a band, so he's a musician!" Another girl understood.

As Jack explained his process of how he came up with the song, the girls were surprised and interested to hear it.

Especially since they knew that Jack's actor was a musician in real life.

So when Jack picked up his guitar and started playing the song "Up Down" on the show, the girls were surprised that the song was actually related to what Steve had said!

Surprisingly, he was playing a rock song about a boy fishing, drinking and having fun with his friends!

With such a relatable theme, the girls even started swaying from side to side and dancing to the music with happiness.

"I wonder if the song was made by the production of the show?" Sarah asked excitedly.

"I don't think so, BlackVelvet is known for making up songs out of thin air in his shows, I wouldn't doubt that he really made up this song out of thin air during his performance." Zoey explained, smiling at hearing a new BlackVelvet song she didn't know.

"You're joking, right?" Another girl asked in surprise. "Does he suddenly make up songs at gigs?"

"Yeah, I saw a video of a wedding he sang at, and the bride's parents were Latino. One of them asked him if he knew a song in Spanish, and he actually sang a song in Spanish that he made up on the spot!" Zoey explained proudly, as if this was her accomplishment.

Hearing this, the girls were even more amazed by Jack, or rather BlackVelvet.

When the song finally ended, Steve shouted that he was going to take Jack fishing, which got the girls excited for the next episodes, wanting to see how this family would interact with Jack in the middle.

While the male audience saw his song as just something cool but nothing major, the girls were so excited about Jack's involvement that as soon as the episode ended, they grabbed their cell phones to post about it.

Within minutes, the topic "Duncan Family" was trending on Twipper with thousands of posts from people commenting on tonight's episode.

Considering that the show only had two episodes, it was surprising that so many people were talking about it, which showed that the show was doing very well.

The comments from the men watching were more varied, talking about the theme, about Jack's music, about how funny Steve was, but the comments from the girls were almost all focused on Jack and how he acted on the show!

Seeing so many girls talking about this character and some videos and photos of this character posted on Twipper made more and more girls interested in watching this show.

To the point that Angelina was shocked that the secondary character she had only made to appear in 3 episodes was getting so much attention!

And to the girls' surprise, Zoey's cell phone received a surprising message.

[BlackVelvet had just posted a new video! "Up Down - Jack Storm (BlackVelvet)"]

Seeing that BlackVelvet had just posted a new song and even used Jack's name as the singer of the song, Zoey's curiosity was piqued and she quickly put the video on the TV for her and the other girls to react to.

"Look, BlackVelvet just posted the song on his channel, let's see if there's any difference from the show version!" Zoey said excitedly, catching the attention of the other girls who were now using Twipper.

Hearing this, the girls were surprised and quickly turned their attention to the TV.

When they saw that the video was in premiere mode with 50 seconds to go, they were surprised to find that there were more than 15,000 people waiting to see the song, just like them.

What they didn't know was that Twipper had posted the link to the song on MeTube, and out of curiosity, thousands of people who were watching the show, and even those who weren't, clicked through to see what it was like.

So a normal song like "Up Down", which Noah thought would get a maximum of 1 million views and a few thousand people watching the live premiere, got a very big release because of the hype of the show, which he took advantage of.

And this was as good for him as it was for the show, since he had posted as "Jack Storm", the character from the show, this was already an indirect promotion for the show, not to mention that the hype he was getting for this was gigantic, which would attract even more people to watch the show!

When the countdown finally reached zero, the girls held their breath and saw that the music video was the scene from the show, but with time they saw some differences.

Even though it was filmed on the same set, the characters' reactions were different...even the music was complete now, unlike the shortened version that appeared in the episode.

The focus of the song was more on Jack, but there were still some reaction scenes from the other characters, which made it even more fun!

"I think I've become a fan of his from now on..." Sarah commented.

She also got nods from several other girls in the room who, after watching the video, seeing him perform, and even seeing how he acted in the vlogs, couldn't resist becoming fans of his just like Zoey...
