I was rereading this and it just went from Twister to panic attack to together to smut to angst. Wtf if this story? I like anyways and I hope you do to! Sorry for dragging out the angst but stories that make your stomach hurt are the best ones am I right?

Stay awesome!

Dan's POV

"Who was at the door?" I asked. Phil had returned and I was leisurely, or about as close to leisurely as I could get, sitting on the couch scrolling through Tumblr. The fact that Louise had left to deliver the flowers an hour and a half ago was currently giving me anxiety. What I would give to lay face down on the carpet, but I had been trying to stay calm.

Phil opened his mouth as if he were about to answer when my phone rang.

I looked down as Louise's contact flashed across my screen.

"Hello?"

"DAN IS (Y/N) WITH YOU?!" Louise screamed into the phone. 

"No why?!" I asked concerned. I swear my hands are numb now.

"She just had some sort of mental breakdown when she read your note and drove off!" Louise said.

"She was here, she's headed back now." Phil said. I looked at him repeating it to Louise.

"Thank God, oh here she is bye"

"Wait--" I protested but the line went dead.

Phil walked over to me and sat down placing the flower and the crinkled note on the table in front of me.

I said nothing.

"That's who was at the door?!" I said, clearly frustrated.

"Yes she wants to meet you at a coffee shop at noon tomorrow to talk, but she said don't expect anything." Phil said, raising my hopes only to lower them.

"And the flower?" I asked.

"She had it tucked behind her ear." He said.

"She was wearing it?" I asked.

He nodded and I could feel my heart swell.

Why was she wearing it?

I could only hope to find out.


3rd person POV

You entered the coffee shop taking a seat in a table near the window. Contrary to how you was currently feeling she was wearing a lemon yellow skater skirt, and a cream colored sweater. You clutched your coffee anxiously, awaiting the arrival of Dan. You didn't know how you felt about seeing him again, but you presumed it would just make things more difficult. You glanced out he window looking at the park across the street. He was there taking a selfie with what you presumed was a fan. He was smiling widely pulling his signature peace sign. He looked so happy. This hurt you as you expected, but there was no escape as he began to cross the street. Dan wasn't happy, but had a pretty convincing brave face that he used often. You had no idea what he was feeling and nor him, you. A part of you wished you could keep it that way, but there is no way anyone would let you especially not Dan. You had a suspicion he was hunting for a make up, but you hoped that was not what the meeting would succumb to.

You missed him though. As much as he missed you. 

However, both clueless to each other's stance on the whole relationship, this left you both going nowhere. Stuck in an endless cycle.

It has to end now.

The door jingle and you looked away, unable to meet his eyes. Dan sat down searching your face for a sign.

"(Y/n), you look beautiful." Dan complimented. You didn't think so, considering how ugly you felt inside, but Dan always thinks you are beautiful, little to your knowledge. 

"Thank you, you look good too." You said taking this as a chance to look at him. His chocolate brown eyes were pleading for forgiveness, even though you were in this position because of you.

Your fault, you told your self looking directly into Dan's eyes. He seemed intimidated by your blank stare, unable to read what emotion you were feeling.

The fact if the matter, was that you weren't feeling anything but guilt, an unknown and therefore unreadable emotion to Dan.

This just further proved your point that you had been a selfish burden all along. He had never seen you guilty.

"Dan, I am sorry to have done all of this to you from the beginning. I have realized the error in my ways with the help of your fans. I have been nothing but a selfish burden to you ever since we met and you would have been better off without meeting me in the first place. You have been nothing but an amazing boyfriend and I have been nothing but an ungrateful nuisance. I have sent your life into a spiral of trouble and I apologise. I have to think of you for once. This is best. I'm sorry." 

He stared at you for a few seconds.

"I love you Dan, ad that's why I have to go." You said. Calm, cool, collected.

You took the flower you had tucked behind your ear and placed it on the table. You got up walking away. Trying you hardest not to look back and the best man in the world.


Woah. Deep. Is it over for good? This better not be like freaking lala land! Great movie btw.

Hang in there!
