Copy Cat

Chapter 6

"uh, Phil, come here." Leo says, he was the first to get to the door for the pizza.

I walk to the door and am suddenly faced with Dan. Wearing a pizza delivery uniform.

"Oh, ditto, uh hi. It's odd seeing you in clothes that don't match mine" I laugh nervously. This was a first. He wore clothes that matched mine for the past two years.

"Yeah, my boss says that my outfits are 'outrageous' , 'odd', and 'not a good idea for a new uniform design, Mr. Howell' so I have to wear this or I don't get paid." Dan giggled.

"Should I be offended, or?" I trial off jokingly.

"If it makes you feel any better, I like you fashion sense a lot." Dan smiles.

"You don't say-" I got cut off by Alex.

"Here's some cash, keep the change! Bye, now!" She rushed closing the door quickly.

"What was that?" I question, laughing.

"I just didn't want the weirdo stinking up our party; I see enough of him as it is." Alex says before pulling the pizza into the kitchen and moving on.

After pizza we watched movies, played video games, and basically just hung out.

After a nice weekend with my friends I went back home to get some actual sleep before school, because I hadn't gotten much.

My eye lids were heavy, but my mind was running wild like a race horse let loose. I kept tossing and turning and I couldn't fall asleep.

My mind ran from Leo, and his new motorcycle, which he gave me a ride on, to Daisy warning me to be careful about dan.

To dan biting his lip whilst concentrating on Mario kart.

Eventually I fell asleep

*Dream*

When I show up for school, dan is waiting for me. He's dressed in all black, not what I'm wearing. He smiles at me.

"Do you like it better when I'm not matching you?" Dan asks. I can feel my heart beating faster. I nod slightly.

"Maybe I'll dress on my own more often then." Dan whispers, kissing my cheek. As he pulls away my hand reached up to the burning spot on my cheek.

"O- okay" I stutter and my lips threaten a smile of my own to match the one dan is wearing brightly.

He grabs my hand and the world goes dark as we walk away

*End of dream*

I wake up with a warm tinge of pink on my cheeks that I can feel radiating heat. I don't even like dan.

I get ready for school with my head in the clouds, and get to school.

When I arrive, dan is waiting for my at the school doors as usual.

"Dan, what's your favorite colour?" I ask, suddenly curious, "uh, for the project I mean."

"Um, what's your favorite colour?" He asks before answering.

"I like green and blue"

"Then I like green and blue." Ditto concluded.

"But what about your own opinion?" I turn to face him as we reach my locker.

"I don't have any opinions. You're opinions are my opinions. The only opinion I have is that I like you."

"Why me?"

"I dunno, you're different. I like that."

"Have you taken interest in other people in the past like you do for me?" I ask curiously.

"Yeah, I once had a friend called Chris, but he... Left, and then I became friends with his friend pJ. He left too." He said not making eye contact.

I hummed in acknowledgment as we head off to our first period class in silence.

Maybe dan isn't too weird, just broken.
