Blue Eyes Don't Lie - A Dan Flint Fanfic

Chapter 15

"W-w-what?"

"There was a break in at her home. She was hit over the head by an object and they couldn't save her. She can't be dead, Dan, she can't be!" I went to collapse but Dan caught me. He sat on the floor with me rocking me gently.

"Hey, it's going to be okay." Dan said as he held me tightly, making sure he didn't let go of me.

"No it's not Dan! She was the only family I had left. She's been through everything with me and now I've lost her, I don't have her anymore!" I ran out of Dan's arms and started to pack my bags, I needed to get back to Birmingham for a couple of days. I need to find out what exactly happened and plan things.

"Babe, what are you doing?"

"I'm going back to Birmingham for a few days. I need to get away and plan a few things." 

"Well I'm coming with you then."

"No Dan, you're not. You're going to finish the tour with the boys. You can't miss these three shows. I'll be okay."

"When the tours finished, I'm coming to Birmingham to help you. I'm not taking no for an answer. I will help you." 

Dan pulled me back and kissed me as I went to walk off the bus. "Here, take this. This will help you for a few days until I come down and it's also for coach fare."

"Thank You, Dan." I gave him a long kiss and I stepped of the bus. As I walked away I turned around to see Dan standing there, crying. I mouthed the words "I'm sorry but I have to" to him and he just nodded back. 

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

"One ticket to Birmingham please."

"One way or return ticket too?" The ticket man said.

"One way please."

"£24 please."

I handed him the money and he handed my my ticket. I jumped on the bus and sat right at the back just staring out the window thinking how everything was so perfect until now. I put my headphones in and found a message from Dan. It was a video.

He sent me the video of when we got engaged. I burst out crying, trying so hard not to draw attention to myself. 

Molly Robinson, will you do me the honours in becoming Mrs. Daniel Flint? the video played. I kept saying yes over and over again whilst the tears poured out of my eyes. I didn't know I'd miss him this much. God help me if I'm to do this for three days.

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

As I approached Birmingham Coach Station after a three and a half hour journey, I decided to phone Dan and tell him I got here safely.

"Hello? Molly?" he said, sniffing. It sounded as if he had still been crying. 

"Hi Dan. Have you been crying?"

"Yeah, you sound like you have too."

"Yeah I have, just watching the video you sent me made me burst into tears on the coach. Anyway, I'm just letting you know I've got here safely and I miss you so much. I didn't expect it to hit me this hard."

"I know, I'm the same, but we'll be with each other again in a few days time. I'll call you after the concert. Is that alright?"

"That would actually be really nice Dan. I think I need to hear your voice before I go to sleep."
