The Documentary

Chapter 6

Daniels POV

this morning i decide to be nice, in a good way. let's not burn the house down today. i run downstairs early enough so that no one is awake. i make eggs, bacon and toast. luckily i know enough on how to cook so i'm not too worried about this. once it's done i bring it upstairs to bethany. i knock on her door slightly, hoping she's already awake and i'm not disturbing her too much. i bring it in and set it on the table across from her bed.

bethany: aww you're so sweet daniel. did anything catch on fire?

me: no, luckily no smoke this morning at all.
he says with a slight giggle.

bethany: well thank you.

she gets up from bed and thanks me with a big hug. and i hug her back tightly. i feel like the hug lasted forever rather than a few seconds. 
  i look into her eyes and the room goes silent. it wasn't awkward silence. just good silence. i then turn around and walk back downstairs where i see all the boys sitting on the couch looking at me.

me: what?

jonah: daniel... why were you up so early. hmmm?
jonah said in a teasing way.

me: oh you know. i just made some actual breakfast for bethany. and i didn't burn down the house. *cough* jack.

i look at jack and he looks down quickly, laughing.

zach: ohhhhh breakfast huhhh?

me: yes breakfast. what's so wrong with that?

corbyn: oh nothing.

they all look at me in a sarcastic way. and i know exactly what their thinking. all four of them get up at once and run upstairs.

Bethany's POV

i wake up to the sunrise shining through my window, i guess i forgot to close my curtains. i cant seem to fall back to sleep so i decide to write. i write a little about my life and how things are going, and the way i feel about each of the boys. i do this for a voice over. for my film of course. i suddenly don't really care about my extra credit project. i just want to live in the moment and not think about school for once. i mean not everything is about academics right?

before i could write anything else down, i hear a slight knock on my door and daniel walks in holding a tray full of food. i get up out of bed and thank him with an amorous hug. i wish i could have held him forever. the room goes silent, but a good silent, not an awkward one. he then leaves and i'm alone once again. i eat my breakfast then make my way downstairs. on my way down i see all the boys, besides daniel. they're talking about something and all laughing. as i pass each one of them they all look at me in a flirty way, kind of like i have something to say.

i walk into the kitchen and i see daniel sitting on the counter.

daniel: hey

me: hey, what were the boys on about?

daniel: pshhttt probably nothing.

Daniels POV

i see bethany come down. her hair still messy from bed. she comes in and asks me what's up with the rest of the boys, and why they're acting to weird. i look into her eyes, i want to tell her how i feel but i can't find the right words to say and i hate myself because of it.

me: pshhhttt probably nothing.

and i hate myself even more for lying.
