2 months later, Christmas week

dan's pov

mom: okay danny, have a fun time with your friend. we miss you

dan: i miss you too mom, i've got to go now or else we'll miss our ride

mom: alright, i love you

dan: love you too, bye

i hang up with my mother as i look over to joy, we stand on the platform waiting for our tube

joy: where are we going exactly?

dan: everywhere and anywhere

joy: how poetic of you

dan: i try my best

her freshly cut short hair spikes up a bit as our ride comes to a harsh stop. we get on and manage to find seats next to each other. the doors close, and we're on our way to central london

dan: she really wants to meet you, i quote: 'it would be so great to see that girlfriend of yours'

joy laughs a bit 

dan: yea, my mum doesn't believe that we're just friends

it would be nice to be much more than just friends though

joy: do we even believe that we're just friends?

she looks into my eyes and leans in, our lips are less than inches apart-

BRING BRING 

i open my eyes and quickly turn off my alarm

WHAT THE FUCK HOW WAS THAT A DREAM? I WAS SO CLOSE TO KISSING HER

 as i lay in bed for a while, i hear joy's alarm go off 

6:30

okay, now it's time to start actually moving. i turn on the shower and put on some music, after that i get dressed in a grey hoodie and black jeans. 

I walk out the door, grabbing my stuff along the way to see joy already waiting for me

joy: wow smith, it's been what? 2 weeks of us doing this? you should get with the program

dan: oh sorry your highness

i dramatically bow in front of her, she lets out a small laugh

joy: i'm just fucking with you

dan: i know

we then exit the building and get in my car, she pops in a random cd

dan: we've got an hour before we have to get on the tube, monsters?

joy: is that even a question?

i flash her a smile as i turn the street corner. i see that she's wearing my favourite skinny jeans: the black ripped ones. i take one hand off the steering wheel and slide it in one of the rips of her jeans

dan: how the fuck are your legs so smooth?

she looks at my hand, then my face

joy: i call it shaving 

joy's pov

dan and i have become very close, today, we've decided to go shopping in london to maybe snatch some good holiday deals

we pull up to the convenience store and dan parks the car, almost hitting a snow bank, or two

dan: you stay here and i'll get the drinks
