We left the house almost 45 minutes later, because Dan insisted on straightening his hair. I like his hobbit hair, I think it's nice. But he doesn't, which obviously has more effect than anything I could ever say or do.
As we were walking around in London, we were constantly talking, and enjoying each others company. I love the simple times with Dan, just spending large amounts of time with each other and not thinking much of it.
We go over to Pj and Chris' house, and we realize that we hadn't let them know we were dropping by. I still knocked on the door, and I heard someone rush to the door.
As the door opens, we are greeted with a smile and some piercing green eyes.
"Dan! Phil!"
I see Chris emerge from the hallway behind him.
"Hey, We are expecting a few guests over, so can we talk another time?"
"Oh.. Yeah. We just..."
I couldn't finish talking. I felt quite embarrassed.
"We were just looking for our waffle iron."
Dan interjects. Peej shoots him a grin.
"Of course! I will go grab it. Want to come in while I get it?"
Chris shoots Pj a glare.
"No, that's fine. We can stay out here for a few."
"Alright..."
Chris turns around and disappears down the hallway and Pj shuts the door.
I look over at Dan. He seems as if he is deep in thought, and I look away quickly.
We hear some faint yelling, but I can't quite make out what they're saying. A few moments later, Pj opens the door. He hides his face, his eyes are downcast. He just hands out the iron, and I take it from his hands, and he closes the door behind him, and he climbs into his car and drives off.
Dan and I walk down the street together in silence. I am left to my own thoughts, and I'm not sure what the hell was going on with them. They were expecting company, but Pj ended up leaving. I'm so confused. I look over at Dan, hoping to start conversation, but his eyes are downcast, and he doesn't look like he's up for conversation. We reach our apartment building, and Dan still hadn't said a word.
"Hey, I'm gonna go out for a bit, yea?"
"Alright, sure. I will see you later, yea?"
He doesn't respond. He just awkwardly shuffles away, with his hands in his pockets. I am more confused than ever.
Was there something that happened between the three of them that I am unsure about? Obviously something is going on with Pj and Chris, but Dan is affected too?
