Things We Lost To The FlΔmes (BΔSTILLE fanfic)

Edinburgh

It was the early hours of Friday, our last show, and Will was driving us to Edinburgh. I looked at the clock on my phone to make sure I wasn't hallucinating. I sighed when I saw that it really was 7am. I don't know why we set off so early, our show wasn't until later. I know, soundcheck and stuff, but that wouldn't take too long. Neither would driving here, just a couple of hours. We'll be there before lunch. I sighed and put my head on Dan's shoulder. He rested his cheek on my head and I closed my eyes as his hair tickled the top of my head. I soon drifted to a peaceful sleep.

I opened my eyes to find that I was sitting in the middle of a meadow full of flowers. I smiled as the warm sun soaked into my pale skin. I felt someone move next to me so I turned. I saw Will sitting next to me, not Will from Bastille, looking at the sky. He looked down at me and a large smile spread across his face. I smiled back and we both looked back to the sun. I lay down in the flowers and inhaled the sweet smell. Suddenly someone was tugging on my arm, pulling me up. I sat up to see Will smiling at me and signalling to the quickly setting sun. He shuffled closer to me and put his arm over my shoulders. I smiled and put my head gently on his chest. We sat there in silence for a few seconds as the sun disappeared behind the horizon. It was beautiful. I lifted my head from Will's chest to realise that I wasn't sat with Will, I was at in Dan's arms. Strange, I could have sworn I was with, sweet, curly haired, Will.

"Dan?" I asked confused.

"Yeah" he smiled his adorable smile that made my heart flutter.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"What do you mean? I'm watching the sunset with my daughter" he laughed and squeezed me closer to him.

I smiled and rested my head on his shoulder. The sun had fully set so we were sat in darkness. I heard an owl hooting and I snuggled closer to Dan. An eerie mood fell and I squeezed closer to Dan again. He tightened his grip on me and I could hear his heart thudding, as he was scared too. I heard a yell coming from the trees that lined the meadow. I jumped and turned to where the scream came from. I saw Kyle running out of the trees and into the meadow.

"Oh, thank god you guys are here, stay out in the open. The owls are not what they seem" he said.

"What?" I asked confused.

Kyle ignored me and ran off into the trees again. I looked at Dan and he looked worriedly at me.

"What did Kyle mean?" I asked.

"I don't know, the part about the owls is from Twin Peaks, but I have no idea what is going on" Dan said looking me in the eye.

"Oh" was all I could say.

Suddenly the sun came up and I was sat with Will again.

"Will?" I asked confused.

"Yeah?" He smiled at me.

"Wasn't I just here with Dan?" I asked looking at his arm that was draped over my shoulders.

"Dan only comes out at night" he laughed. "And I only come out in the day"

"Oh, right" I said, still confused though.

I rested my head on Will's shoulder and closed my eyes.

I opened my eyes and took in my surroundings. I was in the van with Bastille. That was a slightly strange dream...

"She's awake!" Woody cheered.

"What?" I asked, confused.

"You've been asleep for ages, we tried waking you because you started talking about owls and the sunset or something" Dan laughed.
