when sw tweeted cs part 2

*refresh* *refresh*
Alas still no reply from Cody. Shane could feel the tension growing inside him, he could not have a no reply from Cody, Shane refused to be the next Lindsay Lohan of twitter being ignored by fellow celebs. Who does this little punk think he is anyway, doesn't he know who warney is? He should feel privileged that warney would even bother to tweet him. Then again he didn't want anyone to know if CS didn't tweet back. Should he delete the tweet? No, people would have seen it already to delete it would be to admit to the shame, and he was no Shame Warne. Perhaps he could make a new fake CS twitter account and reply to himself? SW lowered his head in his hands trying to keep his cool. Why did I have to send that damn tweet? he though to himself. The whole world would know he'd been ignored by a 13 year old.He also had doubts about the tweet itself, did I come across too strong? was a winky face too much? Maybe he hadn't been as chill as he thought.  A sense of dread came over him, he would give it another 5 minutes then he would have to take some kind of action.

He looked up at his screen, his hope rapidly declining when he suddenly noticed something. A huge grin sat upon shanes face, YES! he thought. For right when SW was about to give up all hope CS had retweeted his tweet. Sure is wasn't quite a reply like he had hoped but dammit a retweet was better than nothing! SW breathed a sigh of relief and grabbed a well earned beer from the fridge. He sat back in his chair feeling happy in that he had kind of succesfully tweetmunicated with CS.
He leaned back and planned his next tweet.
@warne888 just enjoying the sun with a brew in hand
he patted himself on the back, it was a good tweet, casual but informative. It had been an emotional day in the twittersphere for shane but it all paid off.

when sw tweeted cs

Shane sat tentatively at his computer screen, he scrolled through many tweets, still no reply from Delta, still no wine recommendation from Jamie Oliver to go with his fish n chips (in the end he chose red wine vinegar as it was already in the house, a decision he later regretted).  A little discouraged but not completely down and out Shane thought to himself , who can I tweet? who really gets me? how can I be relevant again?  The answer sat in front of his eyes like a message from above, could it be?  Yes, this is the one, the one he would tweet. @thecodysimpson . It was so obvious how had he missed it before? Not only was Cody young and relevant he was also a fellow australian , not to mention tipped to be the next J Biebs. But what to tweet? 'YO CODY S ITS WARNEY HOW U DUIN?'. No that wouldn't do, the desperation would be made too obvious by the caps lock, musn't come on too strong. He wracked his brains, looked to the ceiling and prayed for guidance. Then like a christmas miracle Shane glanced at his screen and his heart swelled with joy when he saw @thecodysimpson : Im sweating so much in rehearsal right now. Is it ok for me to take my shirt off? Will someone please come wipe me down ;)
This was it! The moment he had been waiting for, the perfect opportunity to tweet CS, the winky face at the end settled it, Cody was a chill guy and would obviously wanna tweet Shane back. Shane being a retired athlete could relate to Cody's predicament, as sweating was a common problem for him also. He would offer Cody advice about sweating, now what to say in only 140 characters? He knew what he must do, it was now or never. His hands hovered above the keyboard for a moment, fingertips tingling with anticipation then like the stork delivering a baby, a beautiful tweet was born unto the twittersphere. 
@warne888 RT @thecodysimpson Hey man I read you, used to sweat up a storm on the ol'pitch would offer to help n wipe u down if i could us aussies gotta stick 2getha ;]
Beaming he looked at his perfect tweet, he had done it, and his use of the winky face would show CS and the others on twitter that he was a laid back guy with a silly side, he also added in that he was Australian feeling CS would be more comfortable tweeting back if they had some common ground. Now all he could do was wait and hit refresh...

TO BE CONTINUED!

notes: this is all fiction although cody simpson did actually tweet that wipe me down line the other day, he's 13 man! but on the other hand his song with flo rida is amazing.  Check it out
