Daniel's POV

The drive home was silent. Just like how I loved it. All had been said inside that hospital. I had yelled and screamed until I cried.

When we reached the gate to the Manor I received a text from Mikayla telling me that she was out of detention and asking if we could meet at Tilda's Sweetness.

I showed Elijah the text asking for help by raising my eyebrow. He sighed and nodded as we entered home.

I followed him into his room right before my father yelled, "Travis! You are going to have to work for every penny that car cost. I can't have insurance calling me up like this."

He quickly changed his clothes and sat on his bed gulping down painkillers.

"What should I do? I don't think father will allow me to come out now. Plus, I think Mikayla wants me to pick her up." I said scratching my head.

"Then pick her up then, simple. I'll handle your father." Elijah said.

"That's my concern. You're injured, you can't be dealing with this." I said taking the water from his hand.

"That's true but I'm just thinking about poor Mikayla. It's only been a day she's had a boyfriend, but that boyfriend of hers can't even pick her up." Travis said mockingly shaking his head.

"Shut up!" I said. "Cover for me, I'll be back soon." I said running out to fetch my hoodie.

"Of course, loverboy." He said and I texted Mikayla telling her that I'll meet her in the next 10-20 minutes.

Mikayla's POV

"Ah! Mikayla, dear. How are you doing?" Ms Tilda herself greeted me.

"I'm great, ma'am. How are you?" I asked smiling.

"I'm fine of course, now that my favourite customer is here. The usual dear?" She asked referring to the chocolate cake that's to die for.

I smiled and nodded, "Yes please." I said taking a sitting in the booth.

She immediately served it to me and said, "It's on the house dear." Ms Tilda said.

"Uhm- thank you so much, Ms Tilda." I said smiling.

"No, problem dear. Speaking of which, I have a new recipe of an ice cream Sundae and I'd like you to try it if you don't mind? I promise that there are no allergens inside. Just pure chocolate, unless you're allergic to that?" She said still wearing a pure smile.

I took a bite of the cake and like always, it melted into my mouth. "If it's anything like all your other recipes, I'd be honored ma'am." I said and she clapped her hands in joy.

"Very well, then. After you finish your cake, I'll give you the Sundae to try out." She said disappearing into her kitchen.

I was excited for this. Ms Tilda's desserts are amazing. The sweetness in Tilda's Sweetness is not to be underestimate. That woman is amazing. Her smile is just as sweet as her cakes.

As I was taking the last bites of my cake, the bell rang as the door opened. There he was, Daniel.

I waved my hand smiling for him to come. He saw me and smiled. I stood up and he engulfed me in a hug, twirling me around.

Then he kissed my cheek as we sat down across each other. "Hey." Daniel said brushing my hand.

"Hello, how are you." I asked him.

"Well now that I've seen you, I'm okay." Daniel says looking straight into my eyes.

I squint my eyes and laugh, "Too cheesy." He laughs as well.
