Is he the one?

Chapter 7. Best Day

Lizzie's POV

 - 1 new message from Daniel S -

I stared at the notification for a bit before realising that I actually needed to open it.

D - Hey I had fun yesterday, maybe we can do that again sometime? xx

I did one of those smiles that you just can't stop doing, the big cheesy grin one. I waited a minute before replying (I didn't want to sound desperate) and I knew exactly what to say.

L - Yeah I had fun too and I'd love to go out again. Jonah told me about this really cute coffee shop we could go to sometime? x

I plopped my phone down and started to watch some TV when I realised that I missed I'm a celeb last night (I don't think that America has I'm a celeb but oh well). I immediately turned on last night's episode and it was almost over when I heard footsteps coming down the stairs, followed by a lazy "Good morning." coming from a sleepy-looking Jonah.

"Why are you up if you're so tired?" I commented, laughing at his bed hair as he sprung onto the couch next to me, making me jump.

"Because," he started while taking a sip of his tea, "I have to go to the gym in the morning otherwise it'll be crowded." he replied simply.

"Oi, where's Dad?" I asked my brother.

"Um, he went on a work trip to Vegas and he's gone for a week." he replied, trailing off the end because my phone went off. He tried to get my phone but I snatched it before he could look at the ID.

- 1 new message from Daniel S - 

I smiled at the though of him but Jonah was looking at me weirdly so I stopped quickly.

"Who texted you?" he asked in one of those voices.

"Um, no one." I said as I got of the sofa, walking quickly to my room.

"Lizzie," he looked mad, "who texted you?" he repeated slowly.

"Uhh, Daniel." I said hurriedly as I sprinted to my room. He said something but I couldn't hear it. I locked my door and opened his text.

D - I'm sorry I haven't texted you but look outside. 

I got up slowly and walked to my curtains only to see a white car outside my house. Luckily I was dressed and everything so I grabbed my bag and sprinted downstairs, past Jonah and out the front door. I saw the door  to the car open, and out stepped Daniel. I didn't know whether to run or not so I started quick walking towards him and so did he. He ran the last bit and engulfed me in a big hug, he lifted me off the floor and started spinning around.

"Bit excited there." I giggled as he put me down, "You only saw me yesterday." I smiled so much I'm surprised he didn't look at me like I was a weirdo.

"Well, you know, I just couldn't wait to see you that's all." he replied to me, standing very close to me. 

"So did you want to go to that little café I told you about?" I asked, walking towards the car, putting my hand on the handle.

"Yeah sure," he said, looking at me a bit confused, "you driving then?" he asked me. I didn't understand what he meant so I turned towards the car and saw that I was on the drivers side.

"Oh, back home this is the passengers side." I replied, looking a bit embarrassed. 

"It's good, just hop in and tell me where to go." his eyes sparkled as he said that. I nodded in response and walked round the passenger side to be greeted with Daniel, opening the door for me. I smiled at his cuteness as I sat down on the black seats. Just a moment later his door opened and he sat down. "Let's go then." he said with a little wink.

I was telling him the directions as his hand left the steering wheel, he placed it on the arm rest and then subtly made it's way slowly to mine. I noticed this and just reached my hand and held onto his. He laughed a little. "I saw what you were doing there." I said, laughing too. The rest of the journey we talked and sang along to the music on the radio.

When we came to a stop just down the road from the café I got out and looked down the road and into the park opposite to the café. As we were walking along the pavement Daniel's hand brushed against mine, it happened again and I decided to intertwine our fingers. He looked a bit surprised but I thought nothing of it, probably surprised that the girl made a move.

We entered the shop and found a booth near the back, we kept an eye on it as we walked to the counter, I asked him what he wanted but he didn't tell me anything, he just smiled and looked at the list. After a minute or two it was our turn to order, Daniel got a caramel frappe and (don't judge me) I ordered a warm  milk. When I said my order Daniel waited for the cashier to turn away before he burst out laughing. "What's so funny?" I asked confused.

"A...a.. war...warm...mi...milk!" he said in between laughs. I rolled my eyes at him as he carried on silently laughing, we got our drinks and started walking to the booth.

"You know it's not that funny." I mentioned, him still laughing. We sat down and thankfully Daniel's laughing fit was over. There were actual tears coming out of his eyes and I could not believe how he managed to keep on laughing for that long. "How do you have actual tears coming out your eyes?" I wiped his tears away and he started laughing again. "I give up." I said as I scooted towards the edge of the bench, but before I got up I felt a warm hand grabbing my wrist, pulling me into Daniel. "Are you gonna laugh again?" I asked mockingly, he shook his head and did that smile when you're trying to laugh. This made me laugh and then he started laughing, luckily the other people in the café were near the front and they couldn't hear us.

We talked, laughed and finished our drinks in about an hour. We got up and threw our cups away and walked out towards the car again. This time I got in the right side. He drove me back to my house, and stopped outside.

"Hey, do you wanna come in?" I asked him, his eyes lit up but then got suddenly unenthusiastic. "What's  wrong?"

"Is Jonah in?" He replied worriedly.

"No it's fine," I reassured him, "he's gone to the shopping centre with Corbyn." He smiled, turned off the car and got out, he walked towards me smiling as he gripped my hand. Warm tingles ran all throughout my body and I unlocked the door and brought him upstairs after getting two glasses of water. I put the water on the bedside table and opened my laptop as we sat on the bed. Immediately I turned on Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Askaban which was my favourite HP book. 

"You're just like your brother." he said smiling.

"Well get used to it, I'm more obsessed than he is." I giggled as I turned the lights down.

About an hour later

I has started so snuggle up to Daniel  but he noticed and did one of those fake yawns to put his arm around my shoulders. I leaned into him and we both smiled, I looked up towards him and he looked back at me. I couldn't help myself, he just looked so handsome at that moment. I lifted my head up slowly and placed my lips onto his soft ones. The tingles ran through my whole body and I got those butterflies in my stomach. We stayed like that for a few seconds before I pulled away and turned my attention back to the film. I could see him smiling like a lunatic which made me smile even more.

A/N - AYYYYY they kissed!!

Anyways, I'm sorry for not updating on Tuesday, I honestly forgot (probably because I had to do another hour at my job because there wasn't enough people) and I was really tired.

Well, I hope you enjoyed this chapter and I will try to update tomorrow because I missed one but don't get annoyed at me if I don't but anyways, BYEE.
