It was cruel.
Not only on dan, but on Phil.
I had been ignoring dans texts for more than a week, and Phil had been playing it off as if I had lost my phone charger. I know how much Phil cares about dan, and can't help but feel like I am being cruel to him.
My phone buzzed
Danhowell🌚: Emma
Danhowell🌚:I know ur avoiding me
Danhowell🌚: Emma what did I do wrong? Was it something I said?
Danhowell🌚: please don't ignore me Emma
Danhowell🌚: for fucks sake
I wanted to reply, but somehow I couldn't. My brain was saying "just move on, he's not interested" but my heart was binding my thumbs.
Suddenly there was a knock at the door.
I walked over to the door expecting there to be a mail man or something....I don't know how London works....
Dans POV
She was ignoring me.I don't know where I went wrong, all I know is that I want to fix it.
It's been 2 weeks and i'v fallen for her.
She's beautiful and smart, and kind, and delica-stop dan. She's not interested, and it's never going to happen. Someone like you should not be dating someone like Emma.And that's the end of it.
But I needed to make things right between us. Even if it means that I will never wake up to her face, or hold her hand.
I marched up to her door, took a deep breath in, and hoped to hell that she was home....or rather....wasn't.....it would save the embarrassment and awkward silences at least.
After a while of debating whether it was worth it, I knocked on her door. I was going to fix this.
A tired face opened the door. She had no make up on, and her hair was tied loosely behind her head in a pony tail, but somehow she still looked gorgeous. Shock shot across her face, and she blushed at the sight of me. Did I brush my teeth this morning?
Emma's POV
"Dan!"
Crap crap crap crap crap crap"Hey Emma"
I missed this. I missed seeing his face. I missed the awkward conversation. I missed how he loomed over me and I have to look up to talk to him.
"What are you doing here?" I asked dan "I.....wh......what did I.....im sorry for whatever I did....." stuttered dan. "dan.....you.....I'm sorry....." I managed to say. "What for? I'm the one who ruined our friendship, I'm the stupid one" dan pressed.
I started tearing up.
"Emma, what's wrong"
"That's the thing"
"What"
"I don't know"
