In My Eyes (Dan X reader)

Chapter 43 ~ A Day With Pj Part One

Phil's POV

It's been two days and (Y/N) only leaves her room to shower and go to the restroom. Zoe dropped by but (Y/N) wouldn't see her. I asked her why and she just responded with "I don't feel close enough for her to see me like this"

Dan's been terrible too. He's been sulking in his room, only coming out to eat and get some coffee here and there. I wish I could say the same for (Y/N), she won't even eat. I've brought a few meals up to her and made sure she ate them, but she won't eat on her own.

I hate seeing both of them like this.

Dan's POV:

I can't believe what I've done. I think I regret my decision. (Y/N) hasn't been active on any social media, but Phil said she's only been on her gaming PC, mindlessly playing video games.

I keep asking Phil about her, but he's annoyed now. He won't answer my questions anymore.

As I am going to grab a cup of coffee, I hear the doorbell ring. I walk over and open the door to reveal a concerned looking Pj.

"Hi Pj" I say, trying to hide the inevitable voice cracks.

"Hi is (Y/N) here? She hasn't responded to my messages" he says, looking around the flat.

"Um... yeah. She's only been talking to Phil though so good luck" I reply.

"Really? What happened?" He asks.

"I... We broke up" I say somberly, and I feel a tear return to my eye.

"Oh I'm sorry man" he sighs.

"Yeah" I sigh, then silence fills the room.

"So, do you think I could talk to (Y/N)?" Pj asks, breaking the awkward silence.

"Sure, I guess. Like I said she's only spoken to Phil, so if she doesn't respond, don't feel offended" I tell him. He says a word of thanks before walking to her door.

Your POV:

I take my eyes off of the bright screen and pause my game of Mirror's Edge when I hear s knock at the door.

"Hello? (Y/N)? Um... its Pj. Can I come in?" The voice says.

Pj is one of my best friends right? It's okay to let him see me like this, right?

I walk across the room and open my door. Pj automatically wraps me in a hug.

"Are you okay? I was so worried! You didn't respond to my messages" he rambles.

"Uh... yeah I'm fine, I guess. I'm playing Mirrors Edge so I'm good" I shrug.

"Okay, well lets go out to lunch, it'll take your mind off things. My treat" he grins.

"I'm not really hungry" I say, just as my stomach growls. It's been a while since I've eaten, which for me is not normal.

"Sounds like your stomach disagrees, lets go" he says excitedly, grabbing my hand.

"Fine. Just let me get ready" I mumble, grabbing a minty green crop top and black jean shorts. I go to the bathroom and change, quickly doing my makeup and running a brush through my hair, then shuffle back to my room, meeting Pj.

"Took you long enough" he chuckles as we walk through the door.

"I already regret my decision" I huff, as we climb into the backseat.

"Wow lighten up (Y/N)" Pj smiles and pokes my cheek after telling the driver our destination.

"Dude what the hell?" I snap agitatedly, but slightly grinning.

"Was that a smile I saw?" He says poking me again.

I grab his finger and playfully say, "Do it again and I will break your finger".

"Okay, okay" he laughs, putting his hands up in surrender.

After, I return to my sad state.

"(Y/N)? Are you okay?" Pj asks politely.

"Would I be too dramatic saying no?" I sigh.

"No. Do you want to talk about it?" He asks.

"How much do you know about this situation?"

"Dan told me a bit when he answered the door. I just know you guys broke up"

"Actually, he broke up with me" I manage to choke out.

"Why would he do that? He was crazy about you"

"He thinks I'll be happier without him in my life" I cry, tears starting to fall.

"That's the dumbest thing I've heard. Was it because of the meet up?"

I don't respond, just nod.

"I am so sorry" he says, hugging me. I start to feel better after a minute.

"I... I think I'll be okay. Um... I don't know if I'll be that fun to be around today" I mumble.

"You are always great to be around" he pauses, "screw it we aren't just going to lunch, we are going to have THE most fun day ever" he decides with a huge grin.

"Listen, I appreciate it but I'm not in the mood" I sigh.

"I'm not taking no for an answer" he laughs, as the cab parks. He pays the driver and pulls me into a restaurant.

We get seated at a table, and I open a menu.

"What are you getting?" Pj asks.

"I'm not really that hungry" I shrug.

"I'm not going to fall for that. Your stomach has been growling ever since I came over. Actually you know what? One second" he flags the waiter down.

"Hi, I am ready to order" he smiles, turning to look at me. After the waiter got ready for our order, Pj said, "I'm just getting dessert. I will get one brownie with ice cream and chocolate sauce, two slices of pumpkin pie and one slice of key lime pie"

I felt my jaw drop. After the waiter left, I just laugh, "No way you can eat all of that." He responds with, "I guess you're going to help me eat it then"

"Well played" I chuckle.

After chatting about video games for twenty minutes or so, the food arrives. I'll admit this food looks AMAZING. Pj picks up a fork before I shout "WAIT! Lets be basic and post this sh*t online"

I snap a picture and caption it "Don't let Pj and I get lunch together. EVER. This is what happens"

"Okay lets eat!" He says with lots of enthusiasm.
