Blue Eyes Don't Lie - A Dan Flint Fanfic

Chapter 7

"W-w-what?" I couldn't speak, no words would come out of my mouth.

"What do you mean, she's broke up with you?" Dan asked, he genuinely looked sad. 

"Exactly what it means... S-she phoned me up and said it was o-over. She didn't give me a reason." I pulled Matt in for a hug. No way did he deserve this, Matt's one of the nicest boys I've ever met and he's just been dumped by the girl he called 'his world.'

"Mate, she's an idiot for dumping you. What you need to do is get out on that stage tonight and play your heart out shouwing nothings going to get to you; like what I did when my Dad died. You can do it Matt, you're one of the strongest people I know." Dan seemed so inspiring. Matt just looked up at him with tears rolling down his face. 

"Thanks Dan. I do. I do need to prove that I'm fine without her. I'm gonna get on that stage and rock the balls off of Birmingham!" Matt stood up, sounding so enthusiastic. "But first,  I need a shower." and he walked off. Damn, Matt was a character at times.

"Josh, where's Chris been?" Dan asked.

"Oh, he's been off out with Georgina all day. He wants to spend as much time with her before she has to go back to uni because he won't get to see her coz of touring and stuff."

I decided to have a nap ready for tonight. I've just remembered that me and sleeping in a moving vehicle doesn't mix well. After the concert Philly Smalls the driver will be making the way to the next venue and I need sleep. Dan hasn't seen the sleep depreived side of me... yet. I gave Dan a kiss and headed to the bunk, looking over my shoulder to see him watching me with a smile on his face as I walked away.

I woke up a couple hours later at about 4pm and saw a note lying next to me.

Molls,

We've gone to sound check, be back about 5:30ish. Didn't want to wake you up.

Dan. x

I know it's a little note saying when he'll be back, but I found it quite cute. I took the time I have alone to have shower and check up on what's been going on in the world of Facebook and Twitter. I saw I had gained at least 300+ new followers on Twitter after news broke that me and Dan was dating. Until I looked on Facebook...

My wall or 'timeline' was flooded with messages from Charley and her little group calling me a whore and a slut for dating someone older than me and they even sent me a picture of  someone hanging themselves. It made me think back to when I saw my mum just hanging from the rail in her wardrobe... I was the one who found her, I was the one who called for an ambulance only to be told it was too late.

I threw the laptop across the bus, forgetting it was Dan's. The band walked in with me in floods of tears, make-up all down my face. Dan ran over to me, holding me tighter than he had ever before. Josh picked up the laptop and looked at what I was looking at.

"Dan... I know why she's crying." Dan looked at my Facebook. His face suddenly turned red with anger and he stormed out of the tour bus. "DAN!" I yelled, trying to call him back but he wouldn't. Josh, Max and Chris ran after him, just leaving me and Matt alone.

"Hey, shh. Come here. She can't hurt you when you're with us. We're going to protect you no matter what, okay?" Matt hugged me. He tried cheering me up by talking about KFC and Tangtastics and to be honest, it did. It just made me want to eat chicken. "Thank Matt, you're a good guy. Holly's a right dick for leaving you." 

Matt sighed. "Life goes on though, doesn't it? We dated for 8 years and.. sometimes love isn't for everyone like Josh said in his Reckless speech last night. I've just gotta take on board what Dan said. He's a good guy."

"That's one of the reasons why I love Dan. He's always got a way of cheering people up, even if he's not happy himself. He puts everyone before himself."

After a while, Matt started confiding things in me. He told me Holly was his first and he hoped she'd be his last, how he used to get bullied as a teenager, how he hardly speaks to his family due to different reasons. 

Matt burst into tears. "I can't do it Molly. She was my life. I gave her everything I could a-and she repays me like this... I can't go out tonight and play Molly. I can't." 

"Matt, you can. You can do this. If Dan can cope with his Dad's death and I can cope with all this shit then you can too. Don't let one person get you down. They do this because you're leading the life they wish they had. They don't have the happiness you do. You can do it Matt, believe in yourself."

Matt wiped away his tears. He leaned in and kissed me.

I pulled away, all confused. "Matt, what are you doing?!"

"Fuck, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean too. It... everything's just so fucked up at the moment... I'm so sorry! We-we can't tell Dan. He would kill us."

Matt walked off the bus, head in his hands. I sat there thinking 'What the fuck just happened?' I needed to tell Dan, but if I did he would be pissed off with both of us, probably more than he is now. 

--------------------------

Some time later, Dan returned looking calmer than before. He told me the boys calmed him down and told him Charley isn't worth it. I deleted my facebook and blocked anyone that knew Charley on twitter, I didn't need anyone like her in my life. But the one thing that kept playing on my mind was Matt kissing me. I felt so guilty.

We got off the bus and made our way inside the Ballroom for the concert. We sat backstage in the lounge they had and Dan sat next to me. He leaned in for a kiss but I stood up and ran for the bathroom. I threw up, violently. I presumed it was to do with the guilt but one thing played on my mind... I was late for my period and me and Dan had had unprotected sex quite a few times. The thought of Matt kissing me and then missing my period made me throw up even more. 

Dan came rushing into the toilet, rubbing my back. "What's brought all this on, Moll?"

I lifted my head out of the toilet. "I don't know Dan. I just feel incredibly sick. Can you ask Max to come here?"

Dan shouted Max who came running over. Dan left me and Max to talk.

"What's up Molly?"

"I think I've missed my period. I know I have, I'm late."

"What are you saying, Moll?"

"I think I'm pregnant."
