Wow. Never thought I could be so angsty. Hope you enjoy!

Dan's POV

Wtf actually just happened?

Was it just over like that?

I hadn't even gotten to say anything, and now she probably thinks I agreed with her!

She isn't getting away.

Not that easy.

I hurried out of the coffee shop to see the bright yellow skirt getting into a taxi. I made a dash for it, only to watch it pull away. I could see her on her phone through the window of the taxi so I quickly pulled out my phone to text her whilst hailing a cab.

I sat down instructing the driver to follow her taxi, which may have seemed weird, but I don't care.


(Y/n), wait you can't end it like this!

I sent the text.

Opened but no reply.

The taxi pulled up to her old flat. She must think this is really over. She got out and the cab sped away walking towards her door, fumbling with her bag to get her key.

I got out walking towards her.

I definitely seem a little insane, but maybe me following her wouldn't be restraining order worthy but romantic.

She found the key and opened the door about to close it behind her.

"Wait!" I shouted. She looked at me wide-eyed, though I really didn't think her gorgeous (e/c) eyes could get any bigger.

I pushed the door open, letting myself in. I closed the door behind me and she dropped her purse looking...angry.

"Did you actually follow me here?!" She shouted at me. I was taken aback, startled by the fact she thought she had the right to be mad at me.

"What else am I supposed to fucking do (y/n)?! Just let you slip away from me like that?!" I argued. She slammed the key down on the table turning to look at me angrily.

"YES, my God you are so.... Augh! What the fuck am I supposed to do Dan?! I can't live with myself knowing that I am holding you back! You are making this too hard!" She was screaming now. I had never seen her so angry.

"What?! And after everything you have done when you ended it you think I am just supposed to let it go?! That you have any right to be mad at me?! What am I supposed to do?! Just sit back and let you leave?! That's not what you do when your in love!" I was angrier than I had ever been before.

"This is bullshit Dan. Do you call this love?!" She screamed gesturing to us.

" Yeah I do! Because when you love someone you don't stop fighting and you love them even when you fight!" I argued. She was watching my every move. We stood in angry silence glaring at each other.

She sighed sitting on the couch putting her head in her hands.

"I don't know what to do." She said. Her voice was quiet and calming. I sat next to her, but she didn't look at me. She looked terrible. Frail and defeated. I had been posing as victim all this time, but this whole situation had been so draining for both of us. I needed her as much as she needed me. It was too hard with the fans in the way.

I looked down to see the flower I had so tightly clutched in my hands. It was crushed. I looked between her and the flower. I understand.

I placed a soft hand on her bent back, the only physical contact I had made in much to long. I yearned for her touch, her love her presence. I was deteriorating without her. She didn't move for a few seconds, then sat up making my hand fall.

"I'm sorry." I said placing my hand on hers and grasped it lightly. She looked down at my hand for a second before curling her fingers around mine. My entire body shivered at the familiar feeling.

"I'm sorry. It's my fault." She said slumping slightly.

"No, we have both been making it hard on each other. We are both to blame." I said. She looked at me and nodded. 

We sat in a comfortable silence, hands intertwined, listening to each other breathing.

"I didn't mean to put so much on you. I'm sorry. I'll go." I stood up an turned to watch her. She was looking at her hand, I had let go of, sadly.

She looked up at me and I turned away. There was no way I could look at her without begging to be together. That was too much stress on both of us for now. I began to walk to her door, a feeling of weight lifted off my shoulders. We can start from here.

I reached for the doorknob when a small hand wrapped itself around my arm, yanking me in the opposite direction. I was facing (y/n), who had somehow managed to make her way over to me silently.

"Wha--"I was cut off. 

She grabbed the front of my shirt yanking me down to her height. She pressed her lips against mine and my entire body exploded in tiny waves all over. I quickly scooped her up and she ran her fingers up through my hair, clutching onto me tightly. We pulled away holding each other in a hug. 

"God I missed you." I whispered into her neck.

"Me too Dan, I love you, and I promise I won't ever be stupid and let you go."

"I love you too." I replied, squeezing her tighter.

I will never let her go.

Not that easy.


Yay! Conflict resolved!!!!!!!!!!! Woot!! Soulmates together again!
