Fine Line Between Love and Hate | Dan x Reader High School

Confused

Hello my beauties! I love y'all!

Listen to the song above when told to! I put a little author's note!

Enjoy!

Dan's POV

A steady pounding interrupted my process of waking up and I winced. We had school today. Why would I go out drinking like that. My vision steadied to see (y/n) sleeping peacefully, my arm wrapped around her.

Oh right.

That's exactly why I was drinking. She made me feel something. Something I couldn't explain. I was so utterly conflicted and confused. It hurt me to see her and I lashed out and now she hates me. I'm stuck in this endless cycle of torture everyday, digging myself deeper and deeper into this mysterious trap.

Wait.

(y/n)?

I focused a bit more to see we were in her room, after I had gotten drunk. I glanced under the sheets to see her in her clothes, luckily. I don't know what she would do or even what I would do if I slept with her. That's much to confusing and messy. She shifted to stretch, a sleepy smile forming. The morning light reflected against her face, creating soft shadows. She looked pretty.

Not a thought I have very often.

Her eyes fluttered open to look at me. The serene morning air was broken as she scrambled away to the edge of her bed.

"What the fuck?!" She whispered. Memories from last night seemed to come back to her and she sighed with relief. If only I had any sort of idea what happened.

"Jeez, get out Dan. Go get ready for school and tell your mum...you fell asleep watching a movie with me, okay?" She said, getting up. I just watched her scramble around her room gathering her clothes and she shooed me out of her room. I left with the image of her soft eyelids, pursed lips, and adorable bed head.

Did I like her?

No.

But that doesn't mean I can't be nicer to her right?

I can try.

(LISTEN TO THE SONG! IT'S NICE AND FLUFFY FOR THE DAY WITH DANIEL! BEST FOR HER POV!)

(y/n)'s

My god. Dan slept in the same bed as me. I'm dying. Augh.

I got ready, hurrying down the flight of stairs and out the front door to see Dan sat on my porch. Had he come back?

"Hey, come to bother me?" I sassed and he smiled.

"Nope, only to accompany you to school" he said, gesturing to the side walk.

"Um...okay..." I said and he followed behind me until he could walk beside me.

"So other than me scaring the crap out of you, how way your morning?" Dan asked.

"Pretty rushed. I woke up a little lat--" I cut myself off. He never asks me that. "Why are you being so weird?"

"No reason. Are you excited to work with the love of your life in auditions after school today?" Dan asked, grinning. There was a little Dan in there.

"Real excited babe." I said sarcastically.

"See, you already have pet names for me!" He said, a little skip in his step. I laughed a little at his goofiness, but silenced myself. He shouldn't be making me laugh.

"So we are clearly going to get the lead roles, so do you want to come over and practice lines and stuff for more auditions?" Dan asked.

"And what?" I asked, assuming there was some catch.
