DAN'S POV

I didnt get much sleep last night. I spent hours reading this girl's coversation, reading her story, her worries, her goals. I just found it fascinating, that someone could express theirself in such an open way, to someone she doesnt know. I kinda felt proud of me for giving that image to her, someone safe, someone she can talk to, i dont think she has many of those.

Eventually i fall asleep, Phil asked me to help him with a video and i needed to have some rest. I turn off the computer still hoping i can chat with this girl soon, but also scared because i thought maybe our times didnt match, so the conversations would always be like this.

The next day i wake up with some friends in the apartment talking to Phil about his new video. We were doing "Pastel edits" and of course neither of us have pastel things, Phil is always looking for the brightest color (as if he wasnt the brightest human ever existed) and im always in dark colors, so we needed to ask for help. Louise, Zoe and PJ were in my livingroom when i decided to wake up. I really wanted to stay in bed scrolling through tumblr and waiting for the mistery girl to talk to me, but with some friends in the house it would be unpolite not to say hi. 

"Hey Danny, did you have a nice sleep?" Phil asked, but he inmediatly stop talking when he saw my face, that face when you sleep like 2 hours and you are a bit dissapointed with something. He didnt say anything else for a while, but he made me a boul of cereal and told me to stay in the kitchen as long as i needed.

"Thanks Philly, i didnt sleep much last night."

"Do you mind telling me why?"

"I stayed in tumblr all night, there's this girl that constantly send me messages of her life..."

"And it annoys you?"

"No, on the contrary, it made me really interested and i started reading everything she ever send me"

"Oh wow, that took you a while i suppose, did you find anything good?"

"She's studying art in college, she is 20 years old, her parents have problems and she hasnt have many friends, thats why she rants about everything with me. The weird thing is i dont even mind, i want to know"

"Thats great Dan! So why are you this upset then?"

"I couldnt resist and i send her several messages, she havent answer yet"

"Well, she's probably in college right now, maybe she didnt check her inbox. Maybe she is like you and she doesnt have the tumblr app in her phone"

"Im the only weirdo that doesnt have the app, Phil, but thank you for trying to cheer me up."

Phil was always there for me. This situation with this girl reminded me of the time i send Phil messages telling him i wanted to be his friend. I spent months trying, but eventually he wanted to meet me and it was one of the best days of my life. I owe him everything i have and everything i am right now. He's an angel.

Eventually i went to say hi to my friends, and a few hours later we were filming the Pastel Edits video. It was really fun, i laughed a lot. Then our friends leave and i literally sprinted to the computer and opened my tumblr inbox

walkinthemoonlight chat

walkinthemoonlight: My name is Piper

Piper. Lovely.

walkinthemoonlight: my parents fought today and my father moved out but hey at least im having good grades at college

Proud of her not letting her problems affect her performance. That was bravery, that was something i tried for a lot of time with no success. This girl was intriging me.

walkinthemoonlight: im looking forward to that piano videos

walkinthemoonlight: oh, and im 20 and im also from London

I smiled reading the last phrase, she was mocking me, good sense of humor. I didnt thought much what to say, i just burp out like a fangirl.

danisnotonfire: omg hi! i didnt think you were going to answer this fast

danisnotonfire: so you are from London? Cool! Maybe we live close to each other

what the hell are you doing Dan you sound like when Phil talked to you and you were 17! You need to chill, calm down, breathe and wait, maybe she answer quickly.

walkinthemoonlight: i never thought you were going to answer, being such a busy guy and with all the messages you might have, i didnt thought i was important

walkinthemoonlight: i think im dreaming right now

walkinthemoonlight: im good thanks, i dont feel like talking about my parents. Good video today! you slayed that white wig

walkinthemoonlight: maybe you can rant about you for once?
