(DISCONTINUED) Still Into You // Janiel A.U (Sequel to Skater Boy)\

Chapter 5 (Part 1)

*joey's p.o.v* 

Time passed quickly and soon we were tired. It was hard for me to keep my eyes open and I could see Daniel struggling to keep his head up. He shut his computer and put his head down on his desk. I went over to my bed and pulled the covers back, ready to sleep. Taking a seat on the edge, I looked over to Daniel. His head was still down and he wasn't moving.

"Daniel." I said quietly. No answer. "Daniel." I said louder. This time I got a tired 'what'. "Get in to bed." After waiting another minute, I forced myself to get up and put him to bed. Shaking his shoulder I managed to get Daniel to sit up. It was hard for me to do this since I was equally tire. 

Somehow I managed to walk Daniel to his bed. I was about to go back to mine but he grabbed my hand. "Stay?" he asked quietly. Nodding (even though he couldn't see it), I made room for me. We barely fit, but I put my arm across Daniel, pulling him closer. 

On normal circumstances we probably wouldn't have been able to sleep (due to the amount of room we had) but since we were exhausted it wasn't hard. Daniel fell asleep first and I fell asleep to the sound of his breathing.

If it weren't for the sunlight in my eyes, I would have stayed in bed. Next to me Daniel was still asleep. Because of the position of his head the sunlight didn't shine in his eyes. Taking a look at myself in the mirror, I focused on my hair. It was extremely messy and so faded and my roots were showing, telling me it was time I re-dye my hair. 

Since my clothes were wrinkled I changed in to what I usually wear. I haven't done laundry this week so I could only find a plain white t-shirt and I had to re-use my most recently worn pair of black skinny jeans. Taking my brush, I ran it through my hair, trying to tame it. 

To cover my case of bed-head I put a red beanie over my hair. My phone went off in the silence, which startled me. I had to take a minute to remember where it was. It went off again, but I found it, on my desk. 

The messages were from my sister, asking how I was and how school was going. I was surprised that she texted me at six in the morning, but I remembered for her it's later. Responding I told her it was going good and I joined a club, but I left out some details. Some of the details would be the party, and that I'm going to another one tonight.  She sent back saying that that's good and put a smile face emoji. 

Not having much to do, I decided to browse Amazon and see what weird stuff I could find. Most people are probably sleeping in, but I couldn't. Two hours passed but Daniel was still asleep. I decided to head to the dining hall to get something to eat. Making sure I had my phone and keys, I grabbed a pen and left a note.

I was going to take longer but I remembered Daniel. At the dining hall, hardly any one was there and there wasn't anything good. Sighing, I turned back to my dorm.  No calls are texts have come through so either Daniel is still sleeping or he got the note and just didn't call.

Reaching my dorm, I took my keys out and unlocked it. Closing and locking it behind me, I saw Daniel moving around a little. He stirred a little bit then very slowly and groggily sat up. Yawning he looked out the window. "What time is it?" he asked sleepily.

"I think eight thirty." I said. Sitting back at my desk, I opened my computer to check my emails. Most of them were spam, the others were just social media notifications. Looking back over at Daniel, I saw him sitting on the edge of his bed, struggling to stay awake. "Do you want to get coffee?" Daniel nodded. "Okay. Get ready." I said. Grabbing my vans I laced them up then grabbed my wallet off my desk. My keys and phone were still in my pockets. 

Of course Daniel had to find the perfect outfit, even though we were just going for coffee. When he finally found the last part -his shoes- he grabbed what he needed and we left. By this time people were more awake and every now and then a few students would pass you in the hallways. 

Even though Daniel is more alert, I insisted on driving. We found a Starbucks and I expertly parallel parked. I waited for the cars to pass before I got out. Quite a few people were out, but more could be out. 

There wasn't a huge line so we got it fast. Taking a seat at a booth, we drank our coffee and ate our breakfast. Even though we've seen each other almost every day, we still had a lot to talk about. Part of our conversation was Daniel telling me to watch my drinking at the party.

Last party I got a little carried away and ended up with a hangover. Not fun. Daniel wanted me to promise but I couldn't. I didn't want to break a promise. If I promised but still got drunk it would hurt his feelings, but if I didn't promise it wouldn't hurt him as bad. Instead I promised to try.
