Little Clifford

2.0

A couple weeks later Michael invited the boys over one night.

He'd told Danni to stay upstairs because they were writing and didn't need any distractions.

Danni rolled her eyes when he told her that.

"They're my friends to Michael."

"Your point is?"

She glared at him then walked away from his snarky comment.

When the boys arrived Danni made an excuse to see the them by getting water.

"Danni." The boys cheered as she headed down.

"Hey guys." She smiled and waved heading over to hug them.

"You gonna hang with us?" Calum asked.

"Big bro said no." She frowned.

"Aw little Clifford," ashton said messing up her newly dyed red hair. "You can hang with us, we don't mind at all. You're one of us."

Danni smiled.

She had always loved the boys and how they were older brothers to her.

"Yeah you're totally one of us, but like a pretty girl version." Luke said.

His eyes widened and cheeks reddened.

Danni giggled.

"I get it Luke." She said and kissed his cheek.

"Stop it Danni." Michael said sternly walking back into the room. "I told you to stay upstairs."

"I-"

"Dude it's fine, let her stay." Ashton said gripping her shoulders.

"She doesn't need to be down here and that's final."

Danni's eyes started to water and she headed up the stairs.

She turned back and saw Calum mouth 'I'm sorry'.

Around midnight, Danni was sitting at her desk, with her desk lamp the only source of light, staring at a blank piece of paper flipping a pencil.

She heard a light knock on her door but ignored it.

"Hello Clifford."

Luke poked his head in.

"Hey."

"Can I-"

"Yeah."

He closed the door behind him and handed Danni a can of beer.

"What-"

"Drink Danni, you need it."

She took a few sips as Luke stared at her.

She set the can down and stood up walking over to the lanky blonde.

"Are you drunk Lukey?" She asked him running her fingers threw his hair.

"No." He said a bit his lip like a child.

She rolled her eyes and sat back down.

An hour later Luke was sitting against the door staring at Danni and she was sitting at her desk staring back.

Luke stood up and leaned over her.

Danni started to breath heavily as Luke's mouth moved closer to hers until they met.

She wrapped her arms around his neck as he picked her up off her chair.

He laid her on her bed and she pulled away.

"James, you're so cute." Danni giggled.

They made love that night if you want to call it that, but drunken mistake love sounds way better.
