The Documentary

Chapter 51

Daniel's POV

     I look over at my alarm clock glowing and the darkness falls all over my room. The time reads 4:34am. I sit up and look straight forward. It was so dark, my eyes might as well be closed. I get up and try and find my way to the light switch. I flick it on and I can see my body covered in sweat. My head begins to pound, like someone hit it with a pan. My phone dings and scares me a little bit, making me jump and my head pain even worse. I look down and Its a text from Jack.

TEXTS

Jack: Dan, are you awake? 

Daniel: Yeah...

Jack: Me too, I just saw your light come on from acorss the hallway.

...

before I press the send button I see my door handle move and Jack walks in and lock my phone. He makes his way to my bed and we both sit down.

Daniel: Whats up with you this morning?

Jack shifts his body to face me.

Jack: Bro, we watched IT the other day. 

I laugh sarcastically.

Daniel: Oh right.

I place my hand on my head and close my eyes, trying to sooth the pain.

Jack: I can clearly see, you're not having the same issue.

I look at him.

Daniel: How can you tell?

Jack: Bro you're covered in sweat and you look like you haven't slept in days.

Daniel: I mean, Ive slept, just not well.

Jack: Is this about Bethany? Still?

Hearing her name makes my stomach tense up.

Daniel: Yeah.

I can barely get words out anymore.

Jack: Well tour is next week. If you feel like what you have to do is talk to her, then you should. If not then just try and forget about her.

Daniel: Should I go talk to her?

Jack: If you think itll make a difference, yeah.

I lay back, leaning against my headboard.

Daniel: Okay.

Jack: Ight get some sleep. Nigh-- morning. Who knows haha. 

Jack says as he walks out of my room, turning my lights off and closing the door behind him. And I find myself sitting in the pitch black again. My alarm clock flashing as it reads 5:00am.

   Jacks right, I'll go talk to Beth tomorrow.

I glance at my phone one more time, and tweet "tomorrow should be good, I think ill be happier."

And immediatley got likes and tweets back reguarding Beth.

as I am bombarded with notifications, I switch my phone on do not disturb, lock it and close my eyes. I drift off into my dreams.

A/N: HEYOOO i wasnt sure weather i wanted to have that night and then tomorrow in the same chapter. And i feel like i should update and then update again shortly. so expect the next chapter. also apologies for this sucky chapter
