You get out of your apartment, remembering your extra key. You practically break world record for shadiest exit. You hear Dans voice. You hurry out the door. You head to the nearest CVS in a hurry.
-mysterious time skip-
"How do I tell him that?" you worryingly say to your best friend.
"You just do it. Don't practice in front of a mirror, just go. Go! Now!" She ends the call. You know you don't need to do it now cause she can't do anything about it. You find yourself setting up a bath, with a bath bomb. Time to take some time to yourself.
Your phone dings several times but you ignore it. You decide to get out of the bath and wrap yourself in your maroon velvet bath robe and lay down in your bed. You check your phone and it's all texts from, what do you know? Dan.
Dan- sorry
Dan- sorry about last night.
Dan- if it makes you feel any better those stains are from butter.
Dan- wait found some more, defiantly NOT butter.
You- I get it.
You sign and turn off your phone. You put on your sleep mask and take a nap. Shit, you have work. Thank god it's early yet and your shift is a basic 1-4 pm shift, cause God knows you need that.
You get out of your robe. You get dressed in something that feels causal but looks like a baristas outfit. Your phone goes off again.
Dan- I'm sorry I took advantage of you. I love you.
You- you've known me for less than a week you don't love me. I have to go to work cause things don't come easy for me. unlike you, I come from rich parents who don't support my decisions. now I will kindly ask you to stop texting me until 5 pm. and if you can't things are over.
You put your hair into a simple pony tail wrapped around again to spice things up. After Bobby-pinning the hair down in the back, you grab your purse and head out. It's early yet, so you can walk instead of hailing a cab.
You take a walk when you hear a voice. Sounds like your mom, you walk faster. You start to run after hearing your name called over and over again. You can't miss work over your mom. Even after all these years.
You walk into the coffee shop and grab an apron and a hat. You start your shift. It's easy today cause it's work hours, after lunch. No ones really coming in for a bagel and a sip of coffee.
-time skip cause I'm lazy af-
You sit down and when the hour strikes 5:00 you get a text.
Dan- what do you want me to do, I can't loose you, you're the only one who doesn't know me for my fame
You- excuse?
Dan- I'm a youtuber. 6 million subs. and you're a barista. I could do so much better. if you're just going to brush me off, then so be it. I'll just go gay.
You- you can't just go gay
Dan- are we still on for that dinner?
You- I'm coming over so I don't blow up my phone bills.
You put your purse down and don't bring a key, cause you know Dan has it somewhere in his flat. You got a text from him, but you didn't read it. You knock on his door and Phil opens up. You are welcomed in, and you hear Dan saying something to Phil, but you're not really paying attention whatsoever.
"Anastasia? Is that you?" Dan calls out.
"No," you joke.
"Whatever," he says, and runs up to you and hugs you, and your feelings get mixed. In a Dan sized mixing bowl.
