So We Meet Again...(Dan Howell X Reader)

Lost Hope

 Beep. Beep. Beep.

My alarm goes off, and I struggle for a moment before discovering the mute button.

I crawl out of bed and begin to prepare for the day, carefully choosing warm clothing, appropriate for the nearly negative weather outdoors. 

I continue my routine by brushing my teeth, readying Karen, and making breakfast. Lucky for me, Karen was perfectly well behaved today; a very temperamental girl, she is.

Before walking out the door, I check to make sure I have all my things. Keys? Check. Child? Check. Wallet? Check. And alas, I am off to start my day.

"Phil, you need to stay home. You're sick! I don't want to have to explain to our viewers that you've got strep throat and that's why you can't upload for a month!" I say to a very determined Phil, who honestly needs to lie down. 

"No, it's fine; I'm fine," he argues with a cough. "It's just a cold, I am okay!"

I sighed. Phil has been fighting me all morning, which isn't really the best, considering his version of 'fighting' while he is sick is more vigorously coughing and sneezing onto my nice hoodie than convincing me to let him come along. If anything, it's really just encouraging me to have him stay home.

"You know what, fine. Go ahead and have all the fun, why don't you," Phil said with a huff, which made me crack a smile, in turn making him huff even more.

I apologized and gave him a kiss on the cheek before running out the door, my coat and phone in tow.

When I arrived at (Y/N)'s office, I couldn't help but pause outside the door; there seemed to be a sort of crying coming from the other side of the door. I quickly unlocked the door with the key I had been given by my new partner, and opened it to find her crying on a chair in the large space.

She noticed me standing there and quickly stood, as if ashamed of her tears.

"(Y/N), what's wrong? Are you okay?" I questioned, running to her side. Ex-girlfriend or not, I can't stand to see someone I know cry. 

She wiped away her tears, muttering, "I'm fine, it's okay. Just thinking,"

"Well, what are you thinking about that's making you cry your eyes out?" I questioned, eyeing the woman up and down.

She sighed, "Dan...the night we broke up...I was supposed to tell you something," she said, carefully climbing to her feet.

I nodded, "Yes, what was it? Please tell me, I feel so bad for leaving you like that," 

She looked down for a moment before glancing up, her (H/C) hair plastering her face, tears streaming.

"I-I was pregnant," she said with a sob.

I stood up for a moment, before running out the door and as far away as I could.

He really ran away. 

I didn't mean to tell him this way, but he had found me blubbering away and it just...it came out. I had wanted to tell him in a better situation, but now I can't even explain myself; I doubt Karen will ever know her father, considering he left without any words after I revealed her to him. 

I wiped away my tears and sat at my desk.

Forget everything you had hoped for.

Woahh intense??

So I quite like this chapter, I have a feeling that it'll be my favorite for a while. 

I have decided that I won't post tomorrow or Sunday, because I know my mom would nag me; I will however begin working hard on a few more chapters so that I can hopefully bring you guys some quality content.

Thank you so much for reading, I appreciate it very very much ❤.

To those in cold weather, stay warm.

To those in warm weather, stay cool.

To all, stay woke😂👌

Much love,
