Ironic Love (Dan Howell X Reader)

Dans Pov

'You should just ask her Dan. You know if she says no it won't ruin your friendship, even though I know she would say yes.'

I want to ask Y/N on a date. It's been months since I first met her and since that day I can't stop thinking about her. I just want to care and be there for her. I think I love her.

'But Phil- how can you be sure? I'm just me and she can do a lot better than just a potato who spends his life scrolling on tumblr'

Phil laughs due to me describing myself as a potato. 'You may be that but so is Y/N... Not a potato.. but the tumblr thing..'

I walk over to the kitchen and pour myself a drink before i ask if Phil wants to join my You Now show. Once declining due to having to reply to emails, I walk to my room and make sure it looks clean in the areas that will be seen on the camera.

I start the You Now, say hello and tweet my usual tween... on with the live stream..

Timeskip of 30ish minutes

As I read the questions people where commenting, I talk about whether I would rather be a giraffe or snake.

'Well compared to most people I am already a giraffe, so being a snake would be cool. They're sly as well, so I could hide from the world and carry on being my anti social self.'

Throughout the live stream, see many comments saying:
'You spend a lot of time with Y/N'
'Did you guys actually kiss'
'Are you guys dating'

'I see that you want me to talk about Y/N' I laugh, 'Y/N and I have become really close and great friends. We went to lunch together as friends and we get home to see that people are saying we kissed.

We didn't kiss," I lied, even if it was just to stop a stranger filming her, 'and we are not dating. Sorry if you ship it.. heh...'

I try to find some comments to change the subject but the screen is full of questions asking if we will ever date.

'Oh god everyone's asking the same question... Here's one.. John asks how has my day been.....'

3rd Person POV

You had gone round Zoes for a few days and was watching Dan's live stream.

'You came here to hang out with me and Alfie, not to watch Dan! I thought you would he sick of him by now' Zoe joked as she sat down beside you.

'I see that you want me to talk about Y/N'

You listen to what Dan says about you and find yourself lost in his brown eyes.

'Y/N!' Zoe shouted, blatantly excited about something. You turn to her.
'Didn't you just see that!' You shake your head.
Zoe grabs the laptop and rewinds the stream (lets pretend you can do that).

'Okay, look at all the comments.'

The comments consisted of him bring asked if he would date me.

You laugh, 'Some people really ship it'

'Now look at his face as he reads the comments'

As he's looking, he does a slight smile and blushes bright crimson.

'Zoe, your just analysing too much. It probably means nothing.'

'He likes you Y/N! I Know it!'

In the back of your mind there is a tiny glimmer of hope that it is true. You really like him. So much. It may be love.

I love Dan

But one thing that he said sticks to your brain.

'Great Friend'
