Something Better || Daniel Seavey

Chapter 51: We need to talk

Laurie's POV:

One week.

One week and I still didn't recieve any text or phone call from Daniel or the Why Don't We boys.

One week I haven't gone outside except to go to the grocery store, with a big hoodie, covering my head.

One week I just laid down in my bed, watching Netflix, eating three cups of ice creams, sometimes bawling my eyes out.

One week since I last unlocked my phone.

I am worried. What is going on? Why is anyone contacting me?

What are they hiding from me?

It's been one week since I last heard Daniel's voice. One week since our argument.

It was pretty intense. We are still a couple though. But my biggest fear is to lose him, to end our relationship.

I've been thinking about what Millie told us back in Portland. Was it going to be true?

I miss him.

I really want to talk to him, clear things up. But the thought of him still not even sending a small text, of him hiding something from me holds me back.

And today it's my birthday.

No one wished me happy birthday. Just my mom, but no one else from my family.

Did they forget? I don't know.

I sigh and for the first time in one week, I unlock my phone and enter Instagram.

It was blowing up. The fans are freaking out because I haven't posted in a long time and they were tagging me in more posts than usual.

Some of them are pictures of Daniel and Krista, recently, walking together.

I feel my heart crack. There were no news from me for the past days, and instead of making sure I'm okay, trying to fix things, he spends time with another girl.

I just ignore the posts and see others of fans, even of limelights, worried about me. I smile grateful of these amazing people that are out there looking out for me.

I see a big amount of posts wishing me happy birthday.

A sparkle of happiness grows inside me.

Videos, posts, Dms and edits automatically make my mood change.

I try my best on replying Dms, ignoring the hateful ones, and like some posts, commenting on some of them.

As I watch some awesome edits, I play with the silver neckless Daniel gave me for our one month anniversary.

Suddenly, my phone recieves a message.

One that I wished I'd never recieve.

Prince Cv😘❤️: Hey

Prince Cv😘❤️: We need to talk.

I freeze. No. This can't be happening.

'Maybe he just wants to clear things up' I tell myself, breathing in, breathing out.

Princess Dimples☺️❤️: ok

Prince Cv😘❤️: can you come to the WDW house in 45?

Princess Dimples😘❤️: sure

I start breathing heavily.

Don't worry. Just go with the flow. Everything is going to be okay.

I sit there for 30 minutes, the neckless tangling around my fingers, thinking about what he is going to tell me. What are we going to talk about?

I walk out of the building and get in the uber I ordered five minutes ago.

I look nervously out the window.

We arrive at the place.

"Miss? Are you okay?" The driver asks concerned.

"Mm y-yes. J-just a little nervous." I sutter.

"Don't worry. Everything is going to be fine." He smiles at me reassuringly.

I hope.

"Yeah. Thank you." I smile at him and hand him the money.

"No no no. Keep it." He tell me, rejecting the money.

"Are you sure?" I ask him hesitantely.

"Yes yes. Happy birthday by the way." He smiles again, before driving off as I got down.

Wait what? How does he know about my birthday?

I stand there for a few seconds processing what just happened, then shrug off the thought.

I walk to the front door and see that it's partly open.

I hesitantely open it completely, to reveal something that I just didn't expect to happen.
