Dan and I woke up a littler early than we both wanted. And that's if we got any sleep. We stayed up till 4 and my mom woke us up at 5. I don't know why she woke us up... but she did.

We also moved from our amazing private hotel room to my crappy childhood home. My mom wanted us to stay with her.

"Coffee? Let's go get coffee." I said to Dan. We were sitting in the living room with Emilia and my mom.

"Yeah. Okay." He nodded and stood up.

"Be back by 10. We leave at 11:00." My mom said, rubbing Emilia's back. I nodded. Dan grabbed my coat and slid it on his body.

"That's my... Dan?" I chuckled.

"Yes, Bear?" He asked, rubbing his nose.

"That's my coat."  I smiled at him. He looked down and unzipped my coat and then handed to me. "Thanks." I said, taking it and zipping up. Dan nodded tiredly and grabbed his own jacket.

"Let's go, Bear." He said, holding out his hand. I grabbed it and we went out.

"Since when do you call me Bear?" I asked, standing next to him.

"I'm running on less than an hour of sleep. We stayed up late. And woke up early. Your little sister is one of our fans and she keeps asking me if I will make a video about us. I'm just tired right now. Waking up at 5 in the morning isn't really a thing I do." He looked at me. His hair was straight, but it was a horrible mess. And his eyes were all tired.

"You know, we can always go back to our hotel room." I chuckled lightly. He rolled his eyes and kissed me.

"No, we'll stay with your mum and Emilia. They need us. And we're leaving tomorrow. So, it's fine." Dan rubbed his eyes and climbed into the taxi. I climbed in behind him. Dan told the driver to take us to a Starbucks.

"I can't wait to go home." I laid my head on Dan's shoulder. He held my head and kissed my hand.

"Soon." He sighed. I nodded. The driver pulled up to the front of a Starbucks.

"I'll go get the drinks." Dan said and got out. I nodded and just sat in the taxi.

Dad's funeral is today. It's going to be a long day. Especially running on maybe an hour of sleep. Mom wants me to speak up on stage. Then, she wants Emilia to speak. Giselle was lucky enough to have two kids. Then, mom was going to speak. After the funeral, there's a dinner/lunch thing we have to go to, but Dan and I have a flight to catch at 2:30.

Moments later, Dan came out with a tray of coffee. He opened the door and handed me the tray, then he climbed in.

"That was quick." I stated, sipping my drink. He nodded and grabbed his drink. I gave the driver the address back to my mom's house. Then we were off.

"Don't fall asleep." I looked over at Dan. He was laying against the door with his eyes closed. He smiled and looked over at me.

"I'm not. I'm thinking."

"About?"

"Work." He smiled. "And you."

"Don't be a cheeseburger." I smiled.

"I would never be a cheeseburger." Dan sat up and kissed me. I smiled.

"Yeah yeah."

"Do you have your speech written?"

"Yeah. Remember how I was up till 4 am?" I sighed.

"You'll be okay." He grabbed my hand.

"I know."  I nodded. "It's just going to be a long fucking day."

"I love you." He kissed me.

"I know. I love you too." I replied. We soon made back to my mom's house. When we got there, I went up to my room to get ready.

I went to my closet and pulled out the dress my mom wanted me to wear. I had a couple of shoes that still fit me in there, so i wore a pair of them.

I went up on my toes and looked on the top shelf in my closet. There was a box, two pairs of shoes, and a few dolls. I pulled down my black stilettos and a small zip-loc fell off the shelf.

"Hello. What are you?" I asked, bending down and picking it up. I examined it a little bit. It was weed! Haha! I may or may not have hid this here...

I walked over to my door and locked it. I pulled the box out from my closet and opened it.

"Good job 15 year old me!" I smiled as I pulled out the lighter and bong. I closed the window shade and sat on my bed.

Dan's POV

"Charlotte!" I called, going up the stairs. We're supposed to leave in 25 minutes and she's been in her room for 2 hours. I gently knocked on the door and then tried twisting the handle. And of course! She locked it.

"Charlotte! We have to go soon." I said, lightly knocking on the door. After a second,I heard her unlocking the door.

"Heyy! Danny!" Charlotte smiled widely. "Come in here. I have to show you something." She exclaimed in a whisper. She grabbed my hand and pulled me into her room. She slammed the door and locked it.

"Charley?" I asked, looking at her.

"Look!" She pointed at her closet.

"Yeah. Honey, it's your closet." I raised an eyebrow and looked at her.

"Honey! You called me honey!"  She exclaimed and covered her mouth.

"Charlotte? Are you okay?"

"Do we have any Oreos? I kinda want Oreos." She sat on the corner of her bed. I kneeled in front of her and looked up.

"Charlotte, are you hiding something?" I grabbed her hands. She looked at me and smiled. She rolled behind her and grabbed a bag and a lighter.

"Ta-Da!!" She exclaimed with a big smile. I took the bag and looked at it.

"Charlotte, is this-"

"Daaann, you didn't answer me." She whined.

"No. We don't." I looked at her.  "Now, can you answer me?"

"Yes." She smiled. "I just did." She added. I looked at her and sighed. I went to speak, but there was a knock on the door.

"I'll get it." She smiled and stood up. I stood up and gently pushed her back down on her bed. "Dan." She whined.

"No. You're high. You're not going to talk your mum while high." I whispered. She nodded. I walked over to the door and opened it.

"Hi, Clare." I smiled.

"Are you and Charlotte ready to leave?" She asked,  looking at me.

"Charlotte is feeling a little ill. You and Emilia go. I'll get us a taxi." I nodded.

"Okay. The funeral starts at 11." She added and left. I walked back into Charlotte's room and locked the door. Charlotte was curled up  in a ball on her bed.  I sat next to her and looked down. She curled up into the side of my body. 

"I suppose we don't have to go." I sighed and ran my fingers through hair.  I laid my head back and watched Charlotte sleep. I guess that's a thing I do now. Watch people sleep. I suppose the person I am watching is my partner. 

I grabbed a small blanket and laid it over her body. She let out a small noise, but stayed asleep. I gently rubbed her back and slowly fell asleep myself.

(I've never done anything with weed. I've never smoked it. And never will. That means, I don't know what the effects are before and after smoking it. But, that's not going to stop me from writing this.  If there are any wrong facts about this, feel free to message me and let me know. 😀)
