There Are Worse Things I Could Do

Chapter 76: Heading Home

Your last few days in Japan were relaxing. Dan took you to many scenic spots and a few Japanese shops. The very last day Dan rented a car and requests that you were blindfolded.

You left around 8:00pm and got into the car. He refused to tel you anything about the place except that Zoe rented it for you two tonight. He hand one hand on the steering wheel and one on your leg. The drive took about an hour but Dan kept saying it was worth it.

After a while the car stopped, his hand squeezed your leg. Dan gets up out of the car then opens your side. He takes your hands and pulls you out. He guides you up what's feels like a hill.

"All right take off the blindfold."Dan whispers.

You do as he says and pull of the blindfold. What was In front of you was hard to explain. You were on top of a hill. There were cherry blossom trees decked out in fairy lights. You could look out over the blinking city of Tokyo. There was a blanket out with a picnic basket. The only thing more beautiful than this was Dan himself.

"It's so beautiful!" You say facing your husband.

"Yeah it is. But you're more beautiful."

He takes your hand in his and pulls you to the picnic blanket. You two sat facing the city off the hill. You are the cookies and wine that was there. Hours pass and it gets darker and darker.

Dan pulls you into his lap and your eyes lock with his. The lights cast a warm glow over the both of you. The fall air is brisk but Dan is keeping you warm. His lips connect with yours. You can taste the wine and sugar from the cookies.

Imagine if you didn't move to London, that you didn't go through with your dream. You wouldn't have met Dan. You wouldn't have made a YouTube channel. You wouldn't be here in Dan's lap, married to him. What would you life be like if you didn't get on that plane!?

Dan pulls away and smiles at you. It was hard to believe that those eyes seen things so much prettier than you yet chose you anyway.

You and Dan start to get up and leave. He said that people would come and clean up. You get into the car and he flicks on the radio on. Brittany Spears Toxic comes on. Dan's face snaps into your direction. His eyes light up as soon as Brittany starts singing.

You smile right back at him. You sing along with Brittany. He joins in and starts driving. The ride was filled with Dan's surprisingly good singing. In a way you were excited to go home tomorrow but you didn't really want to leave. Japan was just incredible. Even on the way back in the middle of the night it was so crowded. Dan had fits of road rage.

"What the fuck mate!! Have you heard of a bloody turn signal!?"

You laughed hysterically as he slammed on his horn.

"BLOODY HELL MOVE IT THE LEFT LANE OS WIDE OPEN!"

Dan managed to get you back to the hotel in an hour and a half. He only risked getting into an accident like twice. As you were walking into the hotel it started to rain.

"Thank God I took you earlier." Dan says.

You agreed and you both run inside. While you were heading up to your room you see how there's police tape on Tabitha's hotel room. For a while you forgot about he whole thing. You did what you could.

When you get into the room, you and Dan start packing up. Once you wake up you will check out. There was no time to muck around. You don't bother changing and neither does Dan. You crash on to the bed and pass out.

*TIME SKIP TO THE MORNING*

"(Y/N) get your ass moving. We need to leave in an hour!" Dan shouts, shaking you a bit."

"But I'm comfy." You groan into the pillow.

He pulls all the covers off the bed and throws them to the other side of the room.

"I hate you."

"I love you too."

*insert final packing montage and ride to the airport*

"Flight 1890 is boarding now!" The annoying lady said over the intercom.

You and Dan walk hand and hand to the doors. It was a shame to leave Japan but your married life awaits in London.

The plane starts to take off and you look out the window. Japan shrinks underneath you as fly away home.
