You returned your flat over the road, you needed some clothes as you were planning on going out with Dan, Phil and [BF/N] later on that day. You entered the flat and started to tidy, you sorted out your dressing table and sat on your chair staring at the contents of your wardrobe. You can't see anything that would look good together, nothing that would suit you anyway. As you are thinking, you spin around on the chair, observing the things around you.
You see a flash of colour from a doorway through the hallway.
Your bare feet sink into the carpet, as you tip toe towards the object that now resembled a book.
You picked the book up, and blew on the cover to remove the dust. You ran your hand over the leather cover, golden writing was etched upon it.
'Scrapbook'
Underneath the writing was a picture of you and [BF/N], you didn't know she had kept that. You curved your fingers around the edge of the cover and slowly opened the book, there were many photos of you and [BF/N] stuck at different angles in the book many with weird captions to explain the context of the photo. You could feel yourself smiling slightly. You flick to the end of the book and a photo files out, you pick it up from the floor being careful where you touch it as you don't want to get fingerprints all over it. You turned it over, a picture including you, Dan, Phil and [BF/N], you were next to her, Dan and Phil in the background.
You loved this photo.
But it wasn't yours.
You placed the photo back where it flew out from and closed the book. You did however make a mental note to look in there on further dates.
The first task was still not yet completed.
What to wear?!
You pull out a pair of black skinny jeans. Something a fragment fashionable to go with that because if I get seen looking like a homeless person, the pictures will never leave the Internet. Ever. You thought.
You decided to pair a black and white striped t-shirt with a leather jacket layered over the top. You placed a small copper necklace around your neck, it had a little pendant on the end that said '[Y/N]'. You loved this necklace as Alex gave it to you for your last birthday that you spent together. You pulled a brush through your tangled hair and pulled a beanie over it to cover the worst. Your makeup was already done from the morning, you couldn't be bothered to touch it up...
You glance once more at your reflection.
'Why would Dan want me?'  You thought,
But he did want you. You are his.
Or so you thought...

Hello!!
Thanks so much for 15,000 reads, it was my end of  year goal. I've smashed it over a month early!
I'm sorry for the short chapter, I could've written more but you wouldn't hate me as much.
I do love a good cliffhanger!
If you need someone to talk to, message me. I'm always here.
Bethany :)
