Indelible Love (Danisnotonfire fan fiction)

Tesco

Ema's POV

I woke up drooling and sweating. I had a weird dream. I'm actually quite fond of my dreams and imagination but this dream was rather odd. I don't remember how it went but I knew Dan was apart of it. I let out a sigh and stretched out my legs on the mattress not wanting to really get up.

My phone rang making me jump. I whined before looking at the caller ID.

It was my mom.

"Waddup" I mumbled

"Oh you're actually awake. That was unexpected" my mom replied

"Wow. No, "how are you doing?" or "met any friends or boys?" I joked, smiling into the phone.

"Ok, ok. Met any boys?" she asked. I felt myself blushing.

"Sure why not" I replied

"Be real, Ema" my mom snapped. I could already see she was rolling her eyes across the line. Sassy.

"Maybe" I squeaked, quietly. My mom squealed into the phone.

"Name?" she asked

"Dan. Dan Howell" I replied flatly.

"Why do I feel like I've heard that name a million times?" My mom mocked. Now it was my turn to roll my eyes.

"Because I watched him 24/7 and still do" I replied.

"Classic. You met him?" my mom asked next.

"I live next to him" I said quickly, blushing.

"Holy moly well aren't you a lucky girl?" my mom continued to tease

"Oh please do shut up" I replied. "I'm gonna go make breakfast so I'm putting you on speaker" I added, walking into the kitchen. I realized I hadn't changed to my pj's last night as I still wore my totoro t-shirt.

"How's your youtube channel going?" she asked next as I looked into the fridge. Oh, an apple and oatmeal. No screw it I'll have cinnamon toast crunch.

"Uh..pretty good actually. Might hit a million by the end of the week by what it looks like. I plan on making a surprise video, perhaps" I explained.

"Ah that's great. So are you into Dan?"

"We almost kissed till Phil walked in" I muttered, taking a bite of my apple.

"Ooohh so you like him lots" my mom declared

"Possibly"

"Next move?"

I shrugged. I wasn't good with flirting. I hope he makes a move as I'm really bad at doing it myself.

"I dunno"

"If you do, don't make it to exquisite. Simplicity is the finest first kiss. Don't try to hard or look to good. Be yourself and if he doesn't like it, he can go fuck himself" my mom explained. My eyes widened as I realized my mom had just cussed. She never did.

"Ok, thanks. Uh...I'm gonna go, mom. Talk another day?" I asked, changing the subject. I could hear her clasp her hands together, delightedly.

"Sure, sweetie. I'll call another day. Tell me how it goes with lover boy" she mocked.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bye, mom" I laughed, hanging up. Hopefully it does go well with lover boy. I remembered her words in my head

'Simplicity is the finest first kiss'

"I'll have a hot chocolate" I ordered to the barista, smiling.

"Uh, whipped cream, ma'am?" She asked. I looked down to her name tag. Ciara.

"Nice name and yes please" I complimented, beaming. She blushed as she wrote down my name, quietly.

I yawned and waited patiently for Ciara to finish preparing my hot chocolate. She moved quietly to the other side setting my chocolate down, ringing a bell to indicate that it was ready. I moved swiftly to the counter grabbing my drink, giving Ciara a nod.

I left the Starbucks and walked down the street. I had a month till my university classes started so I had so much time it became boring.

Being so bored, I decided to go buy food at Testco's. I walked up the street trying to remember where the Tesco was again and spotted it next to the bank. I breathed in relief and took out my phone to see if I'd gotten any notifications. Nope.

"Maybe I should call Phil so he can spend the day with me" I suggested to myself.

"No, that'd be weird" I mumbled.

"No what you're talking to yourself!" I said as i swung the door open.

The next thing that happened is not what I originally planned. I fell on my butt on the cement dropping my satchel on the side. I shut my eyes.

"Sorry" I apologized and grabbed my satchel. I grunted and got back up.

How embarrassing. I just bumped into a stranger at Testco for not looking where I was going. I looked up at the person, smiling weakly.

"Ema? Ema Howard?"

My smile faltered.

So short. I know. Please don't kill me....
