Chapter Eleven - Dan Please

Chloe and I actually managed to make it to KoKo by 10pm.

You would understand how amazing it is for this to happen if you knew how long Chloe spends doing her make up before a night out.

It's almost midnight now, and this place is starting to feel a little dull.

I'm not really dressed for it either, considering I'm sitting here in white converse, black skinny jeans, a white Arctic Monkeys t shirt and a black leather jacket.

My make up is quite natural and I've gone for a beachy wave look with my hair, but all the other girls look like they've applied their make up with a trowel and they're all dressed up to the nines in tiny dresses and massive heels.

The two of us have been talking about what is potentially going to happen between me and Dan for the last two hours.

The conclusion we've reached is that I should most definitely pursue something, because according to Chloe...

"You're perfect for each other, I swear" she says, nudging me in the side.

"Well we do have a lot in common I suppose"

"Yeah you do! And you've been friends forever and you live together so you know each other and you know when to leave each other alone and everything!"

I smile and look around the bar "I think we should go to Underworld for a bit, I feel so out of place here tonight"

"Yes let's go!" she exclaims.

We get up and leave the club and head for the tube station. There's one in 3 minutes, thank god, because I hate the tube. It's so creepy.

Underworld is a little club underneath this awesome bar called The Worlds End, it's in Camden, and Camden is my favourite place in London.

The tube journey is quick and not long after getting on, we're off again at our stop.

I wave to Brian the doorman and smile as we enter the bar first before we head downstairs.

We walk in and the first person I see is Kyle, from Bastille.

"Oh my god Kyle hi!" I run and hug him "I haven't seen you since the gig!"

"Hey Ems" he says, glancing over at the other people he's with, Woody and Will. Bit weird that he didn't seem more excited to see me, but I just shrug it off.

"I didn't even see you guys!" we all exchange hellos, hugs and kisses on the cheek and Chloe goes to the bar to get drinks.

"I didn't know you'd all be here! Where's Dan? I thought he said he was meeting you guys?" I ask Kyle, feeling upbeat.

"Umm... well listen, he told us what happened with you guys, but um... he's over there..." Kyle nods to the corner and I turn to look.

I wish I hadn't. There's Dan, my Dan, my best friend, the guy I like, the guy I kissed in my bed last night...

He's sitting in a corner booth laughing with some blonde girl, he has one arm round her shoulders and his other hand is resting on her upper thigh.

I instantly spin back round on the spot. Chloe comes back from the bar with our drinks and hands me one. She sees the look on my face.

"What?!" she asks

I point over my shoulder to the corner.

"Oh. My. God. That ASSHOLE!" she shouts the last bit and I can't help but sneak a glance.

He's kissing her. Like, really kissing her. I feel sick. I down my drink in one. "Can we leave please?" I plead with her.

"Not just yet" Chloe slams her drink on the table and struts over to Dan and this girl.

"AHEM!" she clears her throat loudly to get his attention.

Dan looks startled. "Oh, um hi I wasn't expecting to see you here" he looks past Chloe and spots me. He stands up "Emily!"

I take a step back as he gets closer to me.

"Dan I really don't want to talk to you right now, if you don't mind" I back further away, but he closes the gap in no time and tries to take my hand.

I pull it away from him, "Dan please..."

"No listen to me!" he slurs his words slightly, he's definitely drunk.

"I don't think it's a good idea" I turn away from him, wave goodbye to the rest of the guys and walk out of the bar with Chloe following me.
