Crushing On You ~Dan x Reader~

Chapter 3:

Louise and I stayed over at Zoe's place on Friday so they could help me get ready. They painted my nails, did my make-up, curled my hair, and gave me the cutest casual summer outfit. I slid on the Gray vans and waited for Dan. I was shaking the whole time.

Y: I'm ready when you are..I'm at Zoe's btw

D: Just finished my hair be there shortly.

Y: K. See u soon 😎

D: 🤗🙂

Y:🐅🍊🎃

D: Lets stop.

Y: Okay.

15 minutes later there was a knock at the door. "I'll get it you act like you don't know." Zoe said smiling and rushing to the door. I took a quick selfie. Day out with new friend! @danisnotonfire ✌. I heard Dan's phone ding from the room. I came out of The guest room and into the living room. "Hey Dan!" I said cheerfully. "Hey, you ready to go?" He said smiling. "Yeah!" I say. We walk out the Door laughing already. We stopped at a Starbucks to grab some coffee. We ordered our drinks to go so we could walk around town I've never seen this side of london so this was exciting.

Y/n is the same person I remember her as. How could anyone hate her. We were walking along and chatting when I saw words on her upper thigh poking out of the bottom of her shorts. "What's this?" I ask pointing at the bottom of the words. She sipped the last of her latte and looked at her side. "Oh, its a little self confidence booster. I needed something during uni, so why not here on my body?" I nod. "Why would people be so cruel to you? Your beautiful!" I told her. She smiled. "Really?" I stopped. "What do you mean 'really?' You're not going to make me start singing 1D are you?" She laughed. Her laugh drives me insane. "Dan?" She Says pulling me out of my daze. "Hmm?" She looked sad. "You're about to be the first person I've told about this." We stopped again. She looked into my eyes. "Okay, what's the matter?" She pushed her sweater sleeve up. There were scars up half her arm. I grabbed her hand and examined them. Some were new. "Why?" I asked. "When you left everyone hated me and I didn't have anyone until a few days ago." She said pulling her sleeve down. Tear pricked my eyes. I pulled her close to hug her. She wrapped her arms tightly around me. She wasn't sobbing but I knew she was crying.

I felt safe in Dan's hug. It is exactly what I needed. I pulled out of the hug I still wasn't done with my story. I wiped my eyes with the end of my sleeve trying not to smudge my makeup. "There is more than that. Dan I-I tried to kill myself. That's how I met Cash. He saved me and then he...he" I felt myself start to sob. Dan wiped my tears with his hands. "The good thing is is that you're here now and I am here when you need someone to talk to. Okay?" He said staring into my eyes. I nod and wipe the rest of the tears. We continue walking about. He and I eventually forget.

I couldn't stop looking at her. She is gorgeous. I couldn't help myself. I grabbed her hand. She jumped, but held my hand firm. I grinned as I looked over at an ice cream/frozen yougart parlor. We walked in and she shivered at the gust of cold air. I breathed in the smell of waffle cones and cotton candy ice cream. Y/n and I walked to the flavours. "Mmm it all looks so good." She says. "Your such a big child!" I say laughing. We ordered our ice cream and decided to go with the special of the day. Chocolate chip cookie dough. I took a lick. "OHMYGOD This is nothing like the other cookie dough its way better!" I say. She pulls out her phone for Snapchat or Instagram. "Rate your iceream with a sound." She said holding the camera up. "Mmph" I moaned. "That's about right" she said. She tapped the screen before tucking it in her pocket. "So what do you do now, since you dropped law school?" I asked her sitting at a table. She sat with me. "Um, I actually do YouTube like everyone these days." She smiled. My eyes widened. "I have never seen you on there I do YouTube as well." I say liking the dripping cream of my cone. "Doesn't surprise me. Everyone is or wants to be a youtuber. " she says doing the same. "We should colla-" "OHMYGOSH ITS DAN HOWELL!" I heard a girl shout over Y/n's voice. We both turned. The girl looked to be about 14. She had her hair in a ponytail, a superman shirt, a tied flannel at her waist, skinney jeans, and black converse.(a/n may or may not be my current outfit) I smiled as she ran over to me. "Hold that thought." I told her chuckling. The girl couldn't speak. "Would you like a photo?" She nodded and handed me her phone. I made a finger gun at the camera and winked. The girl smiled brightly. I took the photo and handed it back to her. "Have a nice afternoon!" I told her. "You too, Dan!" She said in reply. "You were saying?" I asked Y/n. "Well what i was going to say was we should collab." She said. I nodded. I knew what she said, but I got lost in her beautiful e/c eyes. We got to know each other so well. Her birthday is on Y/b which happenes to be next week. I want her to know that she can come to me whenever she needs it. Her favortie dogs are corgis and french bulldogs. What should her gift be?
