Dan imagine where he breaks up with you because he really wants to focus on his YouTube career and not fight anymore. He sees you two years later with someone else Phils birthday party with a new guy who is super nice and is upset that he wasn't with you.
UH, this ended up different to what I was trying to do but I hope its okay? xxoo
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You loved him, so much more than you could ever admit. He was a sweet and caring man but the relationship was heading down hill. Fights were becoming a daily routine, you hadn't spent proper time together in weeks and his moods had been getting worse and worse.
"Dan, i'm going into town, You want to come?" You questioned as you entered the study where Dan sat, eyes glued to the bright screen of the PC.
"Not right now" Dan replies in a monotone.
"Please? We've not spent time together in ages."
"I'm busy y/n!" Dans voice became harsh as he spoke to you, eyes still on the screen.
"You're always busy. Always at the radio station or on the Pc or playing video games with Phil" you mumble in reply, mostly to yourself.
"Oh my god. JUST GO" His volume gave you a little fright, but you would hold it against him.
You weren't angry at Dan, you were fully aware of how hard he works for his followers, meaning he doesn't get much sleep so he's always tired and over worked. The best thing to do would be leaving him alone.
You went into town, going to your favourite stores. You remembered a video game Dan desperately wanted, so you walked into his favourite gaming and collectors store and purchased it as a surprise for him. After wondering around for a couple of hours, you did some grocery shopping and headed home. Of course the house was silent once you got home, Dan obviously still working hard in the study.
You carried the shopping bags into the kitchen and stated to unpack.
"Y/n?" You almost jumped out of your skin, surprised by the voice coming from behind you.
"Hey Dan. How's editing going? or are you working on the book?" You questioned with a smile on your face as you looked up into his tired, brown eyes.
"Yeah, it's fine... uh, can we talk y/n?" as Dan spoke, his left hand rubbed at the back of his neck.
"Of course, what's wrong?"
"look, you know i care about you and stuff.. Like, a Lot but... Fuck... I just don't think being in a relationship is good for us right now. I've just got so much work that I need to focus on and all we do is argue now and... well, I'm sorry but i just can't do this"
~~ Dan's POV ~~
My whole stomach dropped and my heart stopped as I saw the way Y/n's face fell. She didn't say a word, tears filled her eyes and she simply nodded. I wanted her to yell and scream, I wanted her to call me names and tell me that I'm messing up, but she didn't. It hurt so much more knowing she wasn't angry, but only sad.
She headed up stairs to collect the things she kept in my apartment before simply walking out the door, no last words, no last look, no last kiss. The door closed softly before i completely sunk to the floor, tears streaming down my face in the most unattractive way.
Days into weeks, weeks into months. I had called her almost every day. I needed to know she was okay, I needed to hear her voice but not once did she pick up. After 5 months of desperation, it was time to leave her alone, it was obvious she wouldn't talk to me but I had held onto the thought that one day she might accidentally answer the phone and I would be able to hear that beautiful voice instead of the god damn answering machine.
As the next year passed, I went on many dates but all I could ever do was compare them to y/n and well... No one could compare to her.
Phil and y/n had remained friends, but no matter how much I begged he wouldn't tell me anything about her. He would say that if i was to find out about how she was, it would have to come from her.
~~~~~
It was January 30th, also known as Phil's birthday. Our good friends Jack, Dean, Louise and Zoe had organised a big party as he was turning 30. I had to admit, I was excited to see everything going down.
I was on cake duty, therefore i would be arriving at the party later than everyone else, but that was fine. I wore my studded converse, black skinny jeans, a black shirt and black leather jacket. Enough black? pshh never.
As I walked to the entrance of the hired out hall while trying not to drop the massive cake, I couldn't help the smile that took over my features, the loud music, the cheerful voices and drunken singing.
"CAKE!" Louise screamed excitedly as I entered, causing my to giggle.. i mean.. laugh in a manly matter.. .
I placed the cake onto a table as everyone began to gather around in a large circle, Phil jumping over to the cake as Zoe lit the candles.
My smile slowly faded as a familiar face joined the circle. A body that happened to possess the most beautiful of smiles, the brightest of eyes and the heart that could only love.
Everyone sang the 'Happy birthday' song, but to me it only sounded like a low mumble in the back of my mind as all of my focus was on her. She was as beautiful as ever, wearing the outfit i always used to tell her she was so beautiful in, her makeup done lightly, allowing her natural beauty to shine through.
My breathing completely stopped, I had to talk to her. I need to hear her beautiful voice and watch as her eyes move with her thoughts. The had always been one of my favourite things to do when we were together, just watch as she told her stories. Fuck, I need her. I need to embrace her, feel her arms held tightly to me as i do with her.
A shadow appears over part of her as a man stands beside her, and I feel the need to vomit as his arm moves to wrap around her waist. He holds her close, not in a friend- like manner, but in a lovers manner. He smiles down at her as she smiles brightly to were Phil is not blowing out the candles. He leans down, placing a chaste kiss to her temple, y/n then leaning her head on his chest.
She looks so happy. He wraps his other arm around her and holds her tight... It should be me doing that.
I should be the one making her feel so loved, I should be the one holding her tight, kissing her skin and telling her how beautiful she truly is. But I ruined it.
I hadn't realised how long i had been focusing on y/n and her new man, until she finally noticed me. She looked directly into my eyes. everyone was taking pieces of cake or separating from the circle.
She started walking over to me, my knees started to wobble and my mouth went dry.
"uh, hi Dan" OH god, there it is. The one voice I've been dreaming to hear over the last 2 years.
"h-hey" I stuttered
"um, this is Chris, my partner" she introduce me to her new man, who held his hand out for me to shake while a smile was glued to his face.
"pleasure to meet you" He says. I want to hate him. I want him to be wrong for y/n so I can find a way to make her mine again, but I can't. I can't hate him because he looks at her the way I used to, pure love and adoration. He shows how beautiful she is not only through words but body language and best of all, he makes her smile.
I couldn't bare this anymore. The love of my lie with another man. I could feel the shattering of my heart as tears tried to fight their way into my eyes. I can't do this anymore.
"Take care of her" I instruct him before walking straight out the door, tears fallen from my eyes as i walk into the cold night air, never to see her again.

P.s. Thanks 5sos, it's weird using the word 'cake' in terms of the actual food now...
