Plot: you've spent the night at the boys' house. Yesterday you all hung out and had fun. It's the morning and you're leaving the house, but are you gonna leave just like that?
What now.
I open my eyes and check the time on my phone.
Oh shoot it's 9am already.
I try getting up but my headache is just too much to handle.
"Ouh" I let out a barely audible moan. I rub my forehead.
"Are you alright?" I hear a familiar voice.
I slowly turn my head towards the kitchen and see a very sleepy Daniel without a shirt on, pouring himself a glass of water. What a view.
"Good morning to you too" I try to force a laugh but soon regret it as I frown from pain.
"Headache?" He says in his morning voice, smiling.
"Yeahh" I sit on the counter.
Daniel has always been the one who cared about me the most. Or at least showed so. You might be thinking 'ohh he likes her, she likes him, ohh just get together'. It's not that simple...
...I have a crush on Jonah. But I don't really want Daniel to find out. He knows I like someone else, I mean, come on, we've been friends since we could walk, we know everything about each other. I just don't want to break his heart even more by letting him know that his band mate is the one I have a crush on. That would just be too much. Anyway...
Daniel reached for some medicine from one of the cabinets and handed it to me with a glass of water.
"Thank you" I said as I took the medicine.
"Anything to make you feel better" he said sheepishly.
I gave him the 'really' look and couldn't help but smile. Our eyes locked for a few seconds until...
...I looked away.
I know where these moments lead. Or at least I think I do. But I can't do this.
Not now.
"Hey, uhm I gotta go.. You know, tomorrow's Monday, I got some stuff to prepare..." I made up an excuse.
" oh.. Yeah, of course" he forced a smile.
My heart broke.
"Need any help?" I could see the hope in his eyes.
"No, thanks. I'm good. Just need some rest, you know.."
"Yeah" he looked down as my heart broke a little more.
I packed my backpack, got dressed and stood in the living room in front of Daniel who was now on his phone.
He looked up and smiled.
"What?" I smiled.
"Nothing" he stood up and we both walked towards the door.
He opened the door as we said our goodbyes and see you later's. I felt him grab my hand.
"Wait" he said.
"..ok?" I questioned.
"Ok. So.. I want you"
I raised an eyebrow.
"And I'm gonna work and put effort to get you."
I opened my mouth to say something, not really sure what, but stopped as he cut me off.
"It's okay if you're hung up on someone right now"
I was still speechless.
"Because in time maybe I can get you to forget about him"
"Okay..." was all I could say.
I guess I like Jonah... But part of me really wants Daniel to win me. I don't even know why. Do I like him? Does he really like me? Do I need him more than a friend right now? What is this boy doing to me?...
He smiled & hugged me one last time before I left.
"Bye.." I said letting go and still trying to comprehend what he had said just a few seconds ago.
We both parted and I slowly walked to my car as he shut the door to the house.
What now.
