After The Nightfall ...

•Chapter 27•

I smiled at Daniel as he made breakfast.

"How are you feeling ?"He asked turning to me and holding my waist with his warm hands.

"I'm ok. Better , thanks. "I smiled he smiled back and kissed my lips.

I blushed . When he pulled away he saw it and chuckled going back to his cooking .

*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•

I took a bite of my pancake then sighed looking down on my plate. It was till now that I realized Daniel drew a heart with strawberries on my pan cake.

I chuckled lowly then looked up at him.

"Thank you. "I said and he nodded.

"No need to thank me. "He said.

"Daniel. Is there something wrong?" I asked when I saw him staring blankly at me.

"Uh no. "He shook his head.

"You sure?"I asked.

"Um no. "He whispered as if not sure if he wanted to say it or not.

"I didn't know that .."he looked at his plate.

"What?" I asked. He looked back at me.

"..That telling you how I feel about you would.. cause a change in our friendship. " He said. I blinked twice and then it all got to me.

"W-what do you mean? We're still friends. "I said.

"Yea yea I know I didn't mean anything. Don't get me wrong, I just meant that .. You've changed a bit. "

"Yea I know and I'm sorry about that I've never cried like that before. Not even when I lost my parents. "I said.

"Oh I-I'm sorry. "He said , his eyes showing hurt and apology too.

"No it's ok. It's been a long while. And I'm fine now that I've found Hunter again . " I smiled a bit.

"What happened? How would you loose your brother?" He chuckled but then stopped himself seeing I was serious. Damn me ! I feel bad.

I love his chuckle. Its so hot. "I'm sorry. "He said.

" N-n-no no. "I said so fast. "I wasn't with you I was thinking about something else. " I should've laughed!

"I'll tell you the whole story one day. "I said. He nodded getting my plate and his in the sink.

"For now. I need an applause. " I said standing up.

"What for?" He smiled.

"Cause Kylie McBell is back. " I waved my hands in the air and he stared at me shocked but then dropped the towel from his hand clapping his hands like a retarded seal.

I laughed at him till my stomach hurts.

After breakfast*•*•

"I'll be back soon ok ?" I told Daniel as he pouted at me.

"But I wanna go with you." he whined again.

"No no no. "I said tapping his nose. "I'm not going to take long. I'll be back in an hour or two. "

"But why is Avery going?"he whined again.

"Oh my god. Ave. let's go. "I said taking my bag and phone.

Thank god I had a bit cash on me from when I left Seattle so I was going shopping to get new clothes.
