Well, Hey...Fancy Seeing You Here?

Chapter 7 - Piggy-Backs

I turned over and poked Dan in the cheek. He grinned a sleepy smile, still with his eyes shut. As I got up from the sofa, he opened his eyes wide.

"Morning!" He said sleepily, rubbing his eyes and stretching.

"Morning, do you want a coffee or anything whilst I'm getting breakfast?" I asked, I was starving. I always am in a morning, it's really weird.

"Erm, no I'm alright thanks, I think I'm going to head in the shower first."

"Alright then, you coming out with me, Leasha and Phil in a bit?" I started to pour the cereal into a bowl and boil the kettle for Leasha. She always wants a coffee in the morning, I personally hate coffee, but I make Leasha one because I'm nice to her like that.

"Obviously, I've not been outside properly for days, I need some fresh air. Plus a day out with you lot should be pretty funny!" He laughed like he'd known us forever, not just over a day. His smile lit up the room as he wandered into the kitchen to talk to me. I was sat at the breakfast bar, eating my cereal and waiting for the kettle to boil.

"Hey! That's my cereal!" Dan protested, pouting like a little girl and pinching a bit from my bowl.

"And it's very nice, Daniel, thank you!" I added bopping him on the nose whilst getting up to sort Leasha's coffee. I pulled a spotty mug out of the cupboard and sprinkled in the coffee and poured in the water, adding some milk. I took it through to Leasha who was getting ready in Phil's room with him. They were already fully dressed and curled up in the far corner of Phil's bed looking at an old photo album of him, Chris, Dan and PJ from 2011.

"Here's your coffee Leasha, it's still a bit hot though mind!" I said, setting it down on the cabinet next to her.

"Thanks. Are you two going to be much longer? We want to get going!" She asked with a little buzz of excitement to her voice, I had no clue where we were going, but the pair of them seemed pretty exited to go.

"Almost, I'm just going to get dressed after my breakfast then we can go!"

I padded back to the kitchen to find Dan had eaten my bowl of cereal and sat there smugly in my spot. I glared at him and grabbed some orange juice from the fridge, heading to my bag to get my clothes and quickly calling back, "Don't go in your room Dan, I'm getting changed. And I'm borrowing your straighteners!"

"Cheeky! Alright then." He replied as I dashed down the corridor, closing his bedroom door behind me. Leasha had packed my superman top and jeans and my long batman necklace thing. I flung my clothes on and headed over to Dan's mirror to sort out my face. I applied a thin layer of foundation, a tint of blusher, mascara and a flick of eyeliner to my top lids. I then heard a knock at the door as I was applying my mascara, I turned to find Dan in the doorway in  towel with curly hair looking a bit sheepish.

"I need to grab some clothes and the hair dryer for a sec, then I need to rob my straighteners back. I will not set foot out of this building with my hobbit hair going on!" He stated, waggling a finger at me.

"Alright Mr Drama Queen! I won't look, I'm doing my mascara anyways. Where are your straighteners? I can't see them?" I asked, I'd quickly scanned the room not noticing any wires anywhere.

"They're in the drawer in front of you. Just going to nip into the bathroom to get dressed, won't be a minute." He added, scooting off and locking the door behind him. He came out a few minutes later in a typical black t-shirt and skinny jeans. "I'm ready!" He sang, twirling around on the spot.

"Beautiful." I smiled, giggling at his immaturity. "I suppose I'm ready too." I added finishing off my fringe and turning the straighteners off and standing up. I spun round to look at Dan who was currently fixing his hair in the mirror. "Stop playing with you hair, you look stunning babe!" I said in a sarky chav style voice. He glowered at me but still win a grin on his face. "What's that face for then ey?" I giggled, chewing the cuff of the jacket I just put on. He ran in front of me and knelt down with his back facing me.

"What are you doing, Dan?" I asked, completely confused. Was he trying to play leapfrog in his bloody bedroom? I knew he was weird, but this is a new level.

"Piggyback, stupid! Get on! It's just for a laugh!" He yelled excitedly, turning his head over his shoulder to look at me.

I couldn't resist though. I pounced on his back and he ran off down the corridor making aeroplane noises. I just laughed my head off, clutching his shoulders. He slowed to a walk, obviously coming into hearing distance of Leasha and Phil, and I gently wrapped my arms around his neck and rested my head on his shoulder. He started humming as we walked into the lounge, with Leasha and Phil sat on the sofa together waiting for us.

"Oh my God, Piggyback time!" Phil yelled, signalling for Leasha to jump on his back. She stood on the sofa whilst he crouched in front of her, then she took his shoulders and hopped on. Phil grabbed his bag from the side and passed it to Leasha ha who slung it over her shoulder and onto her back, Dan did the same with me as he grabbed the keys from the side by the door.

We all headed out into the streets of London, looking extremely stupid, but I don't think any of us cared at all. I didn't think this moment could get any better. The boys had created a soft spot for themselves with me and I swear Leasha and Phil were like, the cutest couple ever. Even if they weren't dating. I also had a feeling I was falling for Dan, slowly but surely.

A/N: Sorry this chapter doesn't do much for the story line, but I have an idea and I needed something to link it, so this happened. Thanks for reading so far guys. <3 J x
