If only If only

Do you know what it feels like when you're sleeping in the car? You feel the movement but you're not moving. The wind is brushing your hair slightly and you curl up tighter to gather your warmth. You hear the hum of the vehicle in the back of your head and in your fingertips. And then bam! You go over a bump and your eyes shoot open like gunshots have been fired. That's what it feels like.

My eyes shoot open and I gather my surroundings. Brown carpet. Light brown walls. Lightly stained wooden furniture in each corner of the room, with mainly dark clothing hanging off of everything. There's guitar hero merch sprawled all over the floor with a big box tv sitting infront of a long brown bed. It all looked too familiar.

I slowly stand up and grab onto the closest thing near me, a white shiny plastic desk with an old mac on it. Lots of little toys surround it and a picture of- Dan.

How can this be Dans room? Did he take me back to his house while I was asleep? No, his family moved out a long time ago. But this computer is old. I check the date on the back, 2008! This cant be Dans room. Well, its like his old room. Skype calls old.

I check his open tabs to see one of my old videos open, 'Life without the internet.'? Holy cow! I forgot I still had that up on my channel. Memories of lion and draw phil naked come back to me...

"Yeah, mum! Okay,"

Dan?

"Bye!"

I hear thumping coming upstairs and down the hall, I panic and stand quietly behind the open door.

A singsong voice comes ringing down the hall "Philly phil phill..."

Is that Dan? It cant be..

I hear someone sit down on the chair infront of the desk and click on the mouse a few times.

"Hi!"

"Hi! I've missed you so much!"

That sounds like me. What the heck is going on?! I heard muffled laughter with some yelling in the background.

"Sorry Dan, Ill be back in a sec. Martyn needs me to do some MAN stuff!"

"Haha thats fine."

I cant take it anymore! I shift the door a little bit so I can see Dan!? How? Dan and I don't need to Skype anymore. We practically have just morphed into a person! We talk the same, act the same, live the same ways. It was only our faces and the computer screens in 2009.

Dan just muted himself and turned the chair around to his bed. I could clearly see half of his face and he looked down to twiddle his thumbs on his lap.

"Do I really love him?" he sighed and continued talking to his thumbs. "I mean, I haven't even seen him in real life yet!" He lets out a long exhale and puts his head on his hands. "I think I'm going to chicken out of next week. I can't see us together without love in our eyes. Hes just so-"

"Hi! Sorry, Im back."

He turns his chair around quickly and unmutes the computer with a smile plastered on his face.

Dan.

I wish I could've known.
