I had nobody that I could tell anything to. No friends, cousins, no one. My mom wouldn't care, and my dad wouldn't understand. It was yesterday that the mistake happened. I didn't really think the whole fan mob thing was a big deal except for the fact that the boys were disappointed in me. It actually made me feel really upset, I didn't like it. I tried not to worry because the boys would probably forget I even existed in a few days, there was nothing I could really do to make things right. I couldn't take back the video I posted. Well, I did delete it, but it didn't matter now. I decided to go back onto twitter. I saw a few more interactions from people saying it was only a mistake and that I shouldn't be upset. It made me feel a bit better, but not much. I went onto my timeline. What really upset me was what I saw there.

some fan ruined the video for us lol now we have to wait longer

what even happened, i heard the boys were mobbed?!

WHY ISNT THE VIDEO READY YET

There was more tweets like that. I checked the boys' tweets. Luke tweeted that the video would take a few more days to be ready because they had to find a new filming location. Oops. I shrugged it off. The world wasn't ending, everything would work out fine. I was lying on my bed with my phone, but I got hungry so I got up. I walked downstairs to the kitchen to find something to eat. I saw a note on the counter, I picked it up to read it and I found $10 under it. The note was from my dad saying that I should get out of the house and go somewhere for lunch. I smiled and grabbed the $10. It wasn't too cold out so I just grabbed a light sweater and left. It only took around 20 minutes to walk to the restaurant I had in mind. I simply ordered a sandwich and sat down by the window to eat it. I was looking around outside thinking about life in general, how much it sucked. That's what I usually did when I was alone.

It took around ten minutes to eat, so I decided to go back home. I had no where else to go. I walked outside to see grey clouds above me. Shit. I started walking home quickly, but after about a minute it started to pour. I only had a light sweater on and I was getting soaked. I went to stand under a little canopy thing by a shop. I didn't want to wait until the rain stopped because I had no idea how long it would take, but I didn't want to walk home in the rain either. I was standing there for about five minutes watching cars drive by. I felt like everyone was watching me, just standing here like an idiot. I continued watching cars go by until one pulled up near me. I didn't think much of it until the window rolled down.

"Mari? Is that you?"

I looked into those perfect hazel eyes. I seriously could melt. Why was he here? For me?

"Mari?"

Oh right, I had to reply. "Daniel? Yeah, it's me!"

"What are you doing in the rain?" He asked.

"Just hanging out.." I said sarcastically.

He smiled. It was the cutest thing when he smiled. "Do you need a drive home? Unless you want to walk in the rain."

I nodded and walked over to the car. I saw Luke in the passenger seat so I had to get in the back. I quickly hopped in and closed the door, I wanted to spend the minimum amount of time in the rain. It looked like Luke was either sleeping or day dreaming, I couldn't see his eyes but he wasn't moving. "Thank you so much. Sorry if I get the seat wet."

He laughed, "It's fine. Where should I drop you off?"

I told him the directions to my house. I was nervous of course, this was Daniel, so I messed up my words a few times, but it worked out in the end.

"Wait, you were the fan that leaked our filming location, right?" Luke was suddenly awake and looking back at me.

I nodded shyly, "Um, yeah. I'm really sorry about that, I swear it was an accident! It was-"

"A video, I know. Beau told us. It's fine, I guess. No harm done." Luke mumbled. He seemed tired.

I sighed. Now I knew for sure that all of the boys knew I was the one who posted the video.
