Daniela’s POV 

I woke up sweaty and out of breath. A scream escaped my trembling lips. Tears were streaming down my face, and my heart was pounding. I sat curled up on my bed, waiting for my breathing to return to a normal speed. The dream that had awoken me came flooding back into my memory.  That horrible nightmare that was actually a reality, the car crash that had crushed my heart. 

It took me a while to drift back to sleep.  Finally after an hour and a half of Dan, Phil, and friends I fell back into my peaceful slumber. 

I was awoken for the second time by the ringing of my phone.  I hadn’t checked my phone since the accident about a month ago.  I tried to turn over and ignore it but something urged me to look at it.  I slowly unlocked my phone to find 37 voicemails, and 411 text messages.  It took me about an hour to clear out all of the messages and voicemails.  Most of them consisted of sympatric bullshit, telling me to feel better.  Yeah like that’s gunna help.  I responded to very few messages until one caught my eye. It was from my best friend Jessica.

Dani,

Pls answer me. I have sent u so many voicemails and messages, and I don’t want to loose u.  U have been cooped up in ur house for days, just sitting and being depressed.  U need to get out, so I have an idea.  Dan, Phil, and some of their friends are having a meet and greet at the Harrods downtown on February 25.  Ik these two always make you feel better. Pls call me if u get this.

Love u 4ever,

Jessie 

I checked the date, and sure enough it was the 25th.  Even though I didn’t want to leave the house, as much as I wanted to stay cooped up in this hellhole, I forced myself to call my best friend.  I knew what it felt like to loose someone, and Jessie shouldn’t have to go through it.

Jessie picked up the phone before it even had a chance to ring.

“Dani!” she exclaimed as soon as she picked up the phone.

“Hi Jessie” I mumbled. 

“Oh Dani! I miss you so much.  I’m so glad to hear from you!” I couldn’t help but smile at the familiar voice of my best friend. 

We talked for a while, it was mostly small talk because neither Jessie nor me wanted to talk about a heavy depressing matter.  Finally, Jessica started in on the subject of the meet and greet.

“Please Dani, please come with me.  You need to get out of the house,” Jessica begged.

“Jessie,” I wined “I don’t want to leave the house.”

After several minutes of negotiating, Jessica finally convinced me to meet her at Harrods in an hour.  I was never able to say no to my bff, plus she might have been right. Getting out to see the two people that inspire me might cheer me up a bit.  Although at that point, I didn’t think I could ever be cheered up. 

Unwillingly, I readied myself. I showered and put on some sweat pants and a t-shirt.  I combed through my hair; I didn’t even bother putting makeup on. My appearance didn’t matter because I was too torn apart on the inside. I threw on a jacket and some shoes, and caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror as I rushed out the door. I couldn’t even recognize myself; all I saw was a plain and boring girl, brown eyes, brown hair, starring back at me. She had a blank expression on her face and looked completely broken…she was.

After a half a mile walk to Harrods, I found myself in the warm and tight embrace of Jessica.  After about a minute I started wondering if it would ever end.  It didn’t.  It just got tighter and tighter until I thought she was going to strangle me. 

“Uhm…Jessie…I…can’t…breathe,” I coughed as I pushed her away.

She loosened her grip and stood back to look at me while holding on to my shoulders.  There were tears gliding down her rosy cheeks and a wide grin spread across her face. 

“I missed you so much,” she beamed “Now lets go have some fun!”

She dragged me through the shopping center, until we arrived at an area where there was a huge crowd. We had to wait in a long line, but pretty soon we were inches away from Dan and Phil.  I could almost touch them.  I could see Phil’s vibrant blue eyes looking around, searching the crowd.  I could see Dan’s gorgeous smile that lit up the whole room.  Before I knew it, it was our turn to go and meet them. 

As Jessica and I walked up, I heard one of the other YouTubers say “Hello Love,” from behind me. I spun around on my heels in order to face the voice; I wondered which smiling face would be greet me.  The person that I was presented with was someone I was never expecting too see.  When he saw me the expression on his face rapidly changed from blissfulness to utter disbelief.  His mouth dropped open as did mine.  It was like all of the color drained from his face, I swear, his astonishing green eyes almost turned grey. 

I remembered his face.  I remembered it very well, even though I tried to forget it. I remembered that shocked and desperate look he gave me as he was hovering over my dead sister.  I remember the moment he stepped out of that black Porsche that had broken my bones and my heart.  I felt sick, and fell to my knees.  My mind was spinning in circles and I couldn’t understand anything.  The last thing I remember was Dan asking the boy with the green eyes, “Who is she, Pj?”
