Dan's POV:

I wake up the next morning with lots of thoughts in my head.

Why is it bothering me that she's so happy? It's what I wanted right?

I don't know anymore.

Actually I do. I want her back. That's all I want. This was a huge mistake.

I'll ask her to dinner tonight.

Your POV:

I wake up and check my phone. It's only Wednesday? God this week has been long. I go get breakfast where Phil is sitting at the table, so I walk up to him and ruffle his hair.

"Mornin Philly" I smile.

"Mornin (Y/N). Good to see you happy again" he smiles.

"Yeah the day out with Pj helped. It sped up the healing process" I chuckle. "Pancakes?"

"YES! I'm glad your appetite is back"

"Yeah, I didn't realize how hungry I was" I shrug, whisking the batter. Dan walks up to me.

"Hey Dan" I sigh, not looking up.

"Hey... um... I was wondering if you wanted to go to dinner tonight?" He asks hopefully.

"What for?" I inquire, looking him in the eye.

"I don't know. I just miss you" he shrugs before turning red.

"I would love to but I can't," I pause, "I'm sleeping over at Pj's".

"Tomorrow night then?" His voice cracks.

"I can't. We are filming two videos tomorrow" I sigh.

"Saturday night?"

"I think. If I'm not busy" I nod.

"Okay, hopefully" he grins brightly, suddenly giving me a hug, then walking away. I finish the pancakes and serve them to Phil, then sitting next to him.

"I could have made my own plate" he turns to me before picking up his fork.

"Yeah but you really helped me out the past few days, so I owe you" I give him a hug, which he returned.

"We need to hang out soon. The two of us don't hang out by ourselves often" I say after a few seconds of silence.

"I agree! We should soon!" He nods with a large grin and then we both finish our pancakes.

>•<

I knock on Pj's door. After a few minutes, the slowpoke answers in his pajamas.

"Pj!" I exclaim, giving him a hug.

"(Y/N)!" He hugs back. "Come on in!"

"I brought my sketchbook!" I smile, laying down on his couch.

"Cool! Oh and I was wondering, wanna do a 'Peej and (Y/N) draw each other part two'?"

"Sure. We need a catchier title for that" I laugh.

"True. But I doubt the viewers will let us change it" he chuckles. "So what do you want to do? We can watch Saw or something" he suggests.

"That sounds like fun! I love that movie!" I nod my head and excuse myself to change. I throw on a Pierce The Veil tshirt and black running shorts.

When I leave the bathroom, Pj was sitting on the couch. I run over and leap over the couch's arm, tackling him.

"Oh goddammit!" he shouts as I run into him and then we both burst out in laughter. He gets up and puts the disk into the DVD player and makes popcorn. He sits down and wraps a fuzzy blanket around the two of us. Then we begin the movie.

"Hey. Hey (Y/N)?" Pj speaks softly during the intro of the movie.

"Yeah?" I ask, turning to face him. Right as I move my head, I get hit in the face with a piece of popcorn.

"F*ck you Pj" I giggle, throwing a piece of popcorn back at him. Then it becomes a fight. Buttery popcorn flies everywhere, getting caught on our clothes and in our hair.

At about halfway through the bowl, a good part of the movie begins, so the two of us cease fire.

"Say cheese!" Pj smiles, snapping a picture of the two of us.

"Aww you look great" he laughs, turning the screen to face me. Besides the popcorn dangling in my hair, I actually looked good and genuinely happy. Which is probably the second time since Dan and I broke up, the other being the day out with Pj.

"Do you mind if I post it?" He asks.

"Please do" I nod, refocusing my attention on the movie.

I get a notification saying I was tagged in a post. He captioned the photo as "Horror movies and popcorn fights with this nerd"

"Wow thanks" I sigh.

"No problem" he chuckles.

The movie continues on, and I begin to doze off, letting sleep take over.
