Your P.O.V

I was sat in my room scrolling through my boring Facebook feed, when my cellphone ringtone goes off

'CAUSE THEY'RE JUST GIRLS BREAKING HEARTS, EYES BRIGHT UPTIGHT JUST GIRLS!' Ahhh, i love The 1975. I look at the caller I.D and see that it's Dan. I wonder how him and Olive are. Dan and Olive had been dating for about 7 months now and I finally got over it! Sorta, I mean, you learn to get over somebody when you constantly see them sucking face with one of your best friends.

"Hey, Daniel! Whats up?" I ask in my most cheerful voice at 10:30pm. There was no doubt that I was tired. I just finished a 10 hour shift at work 30 minutes ago, and got home about 10 minutes ago.

"C-can I come over?" Dan stuttered sounding broken, and I was immediately worried.

"Yeah sure, you don't have to ask to come over. I'll get some ice-cream ready. " I replied, sounding concerned. Dan mutters a 'thank you' then hangs up. I go into the kitchen to get a few tubs of ice cream out, thinking about what's going on with Dan, and why he sounded so broken.

As I'm setting everything up in the lounge, I hear a knock at the door. Knowing that it's most probably Dan, I just yell out to him

"It's open!" I shout out while finishing off what I was setting up. And in walks Dan, with a frown on his face. He walks up to me and engulfs me in a bear hug.

"Thank you for letting me come over tonight." He thanks with a sad smile. Assuming he doesn't want to talk about what's going on I ask him a simple question.

"Hows Olive?" Bad idea. He looks at me and immediately tears start running down his face. Oh no. Abort mission. ABORT MISSION. CODE RED.

So, obviously somethings going on with him and Olive, now I just need to figure out what happened. I pull him into another hug as his head rests in the crook of my neck, as I could feel his tears on my shirt. I pat his back and try my best to soothe him. Soon enough he pulls out of the hug and is wiping tears off of his face.

"Here's some ice cream, what movie do you want to watch?" I ask, as I hand him over a tub of ice cream. I feel at this time, it's best to not ask anymore questions, so right now, I'm just trying to distract him.

"Captain America, please?" Dan asks. I give him a quick nod and insert the movie into the DVD player.

Half way through the movie, he grabs the remote off of me and pauses the movie, I look towards him confused, and he has tears welling up in his eyes. Poor Dan.

"I'm ready t-" Dan was cut off by my ringtone. Oops.

'CAUSE THEY'RE JUST GIRLS BREAKING HEARTS. EYES BRIGHT, UPTIGHT, JUST GIRLS' How ironic. I look at the caller ID and see that it's Jess. I look over at Dan, asking of it's alright if I take it. He gives me a nod and I answer it

"Hey whats up?" I ask Jess. I would think it was important considering how late it was.

"Have you heard about Dan and Olive?" Jess asks. I feel Dan's eyes on me. I know for a fact that he heard his name come up. I awkwardly stand up and walk into the kitchen

"Uh, no I haven't, what's happened?"

"They broke up. I have Olive here with me, crying her eyes out. I've been trying to console her for the past 3 hours." Jess confesses. My mouth hangs open and suddenly all these questions are running through my mind.

"What happened?" I ask curiously and little did I know how big the explanation was going to be.

"The phandom happened. According to Olive, some people were spreading rumors about her saying she was hooking up with other guys while she was with Dan. Dan found out tonight and he broke up with her. Now we have no idea where he is." Immediately i knew what Olive said about the phandom wasn't true, I mean come on, if the phandom were spreading untrue stuff about Olive, I would know about it, considering I'm always on tumblr. I have no life. And
as if I was gonna tell one of my best friends that Dan was over! That's basically against girl code.

"Seriously! Dang. I'll call you guys tomorrow, It's getting pretty late and I have a 9 hour shift tomorrow." I lied, it was actually my day off tomorrow. I just wanted to go and see how Dan was doing.

"Yeah, she's a wreck. I'll see ya later (y/n)" Jess says and then hangs up.

I walk into the lounge and sit down beside Dan

"Whatever Jess said about Olive and I wasn't true, she just didn't want to tell you guys the truth." He mutters quietly, I look at him, secretly asking him to give me more answers. "I went over to her flat today, and I was there for a couple of hours. Then this guy knocked on the door asking where she was. I asked him who he was and he said that he was her boyfriend and that they had been going out for 3 months. I confronted her about it and she denied everything, and so I broke up with her and went home. And then I came here." Poor Dan, he doesn't deserve any of this.

"Wow, I don't know how she could do something like that to you." I was sad. I was sad for Dan and what Olive did to him. I'm gonna have to confront Olive about it soon, I just don't know how.

"You know, I'm glad I came over here tonight. You made me feel better by just sitting there and listening to me vent, it feels great to get it out." Dan confesses. I smile and give him a small hug. "You know what else? While I'm here confessing about something, I might as well confess about something else." Dan takes a deep breath before continuing. His glassy eyes glaring into mine, in a nice way. "I used to have feelings for you before Olive came along." Dan confessed, looking absolutely mortified, and i only have one question running through my mind.

"Why did you stop?" I felt broken again for some reason. He told me what i kinda have been wanting to hear for the past year or so. But i never quite imagined it would be in this situation or worded like that. "Also, are you sure it's not the heartbreak talking?" I smirked at Dan.

"I actually never really stopped having feelings for you, but at the same time, I did genuinely like Olive. But I think the fact that Olive and I were shipped together made it a lot more easier I guess, i don't really know. And I'm sure it's not the heartbreak talking. Spending time with you tonight has made me forget about how sad I was."

And do you know what I did next? I did something so cliche and cheesy it almost hurt. I kissed him. For the longest time ever, I could only imagine what his lips felt like against mine, in sync with mine, moulded with mine. I would say that my imagination was pretty vast. But it had nothing on the real thing. The real thing was way better than I could've imagined. And guess what? He kissed back, which made things a million times better.

Even though i totally broke the girl code, i don't regret it. This is what I've wanted for the longest time, and I'm happy I got it.
