Can you Lol Chapter Five

"Where you going 'Lol'?" Called Dan running towards the door.

I kept on walking because i've just made it awkward and he called me 'Lol.'

I made it to the end of the street. The same part where Kyle found me yesterday the same part when he offered me to go to the party. The same part where i should have just kept walking. The same part where i didn't start wishing and dreaming all the time. The same start! 

Dan interrupted my thinking again by tapping me on my shoulder. "Where you going Lola?"

I looked at him. He was smiling and making me weak. "I don't want to outstay my welcome." What the hell was i thinking? I had already outstayed my welcome! With that I turned back around and kept walking away. Then i realized Dan was still behind as i could hear his breathing. I stopped but didn't turn around. 

And we walk, walk, walk through the tress.

"I don't think you will ever outstay your welcome Lol!" Empathizing my incorrect name. "You will outstay your welcome when we have finished this song. Which to be honest isn't going to happen at this rate."

"Lola my name's Lola not Lol" I had to make it clear. I turned around and again Dan weakened me. How does he do that? "See ya" I shouted as i randomly ran for it. This will annoy him. Anyway it sounds like he just wants me for his song. 

Dan's P.O.V

'Lol' sound's too funny. She clearly doesn't like it so i'm going to be an arsehole and use it more often. I looked up and realized she was running. She really knew how to wind me up. 

"Lola please don't run. I can't run to save my life." I huffed over her running away into the distance. Then a song came into my head

"You were always faster than me

I'll never catch up with you." By Naughty boy. 

I started to laugh at the fact i just made this into a musical, but I knew i couldn't let her go. I think to much of her. So i ran after her. My long arms flapping along with my legs. I knew exactly what i looked like and when i ran passed a group of teenage girls they gave me the funniest look making it obvious they were holding in their laughter, it didn't help.

*-*-*

Lola's P.O.V

Dan's right he can't run to save his life. I feel so sorry for him. Look at his concentration running face! Why does he find running so difficult? I better wait.

Finally Dan had caught up. His face puffing and he had an embarrassed laugh on him. "I'll get you back for this one day...my legs are now going to fall off." He said with a painful expression.

"Stop making tired excuses" i replied. Not being able to make eye contact with him.

"Lol, please stay!" He breathed softly.

"LolA" i huffed. We were both now standing outside my block of university flats. "What to meet my room mates. You'll love them."

Dan's face lit up. He seemed pretty excited about that. 'Your face won't be lit up for much longer' I thought. 

I was quite embarrassed about taking Dan through to my room. To get there you had to walk for ages up the cold metal stairs that stank of piss mixed with alcohol. When we approached my room '64' someone had graffiti 'zoo lane' under. So I turned to him and apologized in advance, "get ready for hell."

Dan gave me a weird look and pushed open the door for me. 

There was Kate and Sammy. Sammy looked up and rolled her eyes dragging them back down to her text book lying on her bed. Whilst Kate was oblivious to Dan and me, so she carried on with her nail painting session. "Exciting people, eh?" I whispered to Dan, looking at the shocked face that froze on him.

Dans P.O.V

Wow. Lola share's her room with two contrasting people. One girl had dark rings around her eyes and a black bed, black clothes,black hair, black everything. The other girl had pink everything except she had blonde hair. Then there was Lola's side. It was like a mini version of my room. It was quite messy, but had random objects on the shelves and on the floor. She was obviously into art too as she had a few painting/prints by an artist called James Mayo. He was one of my favourites, i have a few of his works too. Lola was moving some papers off the bed for me to sit on, which i did.

I shortly realized a dark blue note book with a grey pattern running down the middle that was sticking out from underneath her bed. I looked at Lola to give her a look which says 'Can i read it' look. But she looked shocked and kicked it back under the bed.

Lola's P.O.V

Oh no, Dan you can't read that. No one has. Not even Janna. "Should we go now?" I asked Dan wanting to leave it at that.

Kate looked up and realized Dan was in the room. "What's he doing here. No boys allowed in this room remember. You're the one who made up this rule!" She said acting all smart.

"Yeah and you're the one who broke it on the second day of moving in together remember. Or do you not because it's happened too many times before." I replied acting all sassy.

I looked at Dan who was laughing at the two of us. I blanked him out and began to sort some more clothes out as i guess we are going to that night club tonight.

Dan's P.O.V

This was too funny. It sounds like a normal thing that happens though. Anyway whilst Lola's being distracted, i'm going to steal that note book. It looks too interesting to leave behind. 

I picked it up and it felt really heavy and smelt like loads of effort had gone into the book. I tucked it under my grey hoodie and began to walk out with Lola in front.

"Bye" I shouted to the two girls but they just ignored me. That's nice of them.

All i wanted to do was get back and read the note book, but part of me was saying i shouldn't. I have no right. So i thought i will leave it for the time being...

*-*-*

When we arrived back at Kyle's house it was beginning to get late. Lola had gone off to see Janna upstairs and i was left to talk to Kyle.

"What have you been up too with Lola? You've been away all day. I was beginning to get worried." Kyle said in a sarcastic way pretending to be a mother.

"Just doing drugs, robbing a bank, having sex and murdering a few people, nothing much mate!" I replied, knowing Kyle won't take me seriously. "But in all seriousness we've found the best place for tonight"

I explained to Kyle about the cupboard nightclub and before i had a chance to finish Kyle had ran off to go and get changed. 

*-*-*

Me and Kyle were ready to go, we were just waiting for the two girls and my mate Ralph.

Ralph's helped us out so much lately and i couldn't wait to see him. Then walked down the stair's was Janna and Lola. Janna had a white dress on that hugged her figure nicely and Lola had a skater style black dress that was so simple but beautiful.

"Who's those sexy thangs?" Said Kyle. Janna reacted by biting her bottom lip and winking at Kyle whilst Lola just gave a small smile and blushed a little. 

We were just about to ring Ralph when there was a knock at the door.

Lola P.O.V

I hate wearing dresses. I feel so uncomfortable in them. Janna has so much more confidence than me which i envy. If i wear my jeans i would be a lot more fun. Anyway as they all say 'you only live once.' Oh why did i just say that? Lola stop! 

Dan opened the door. A familiar looking face stood by the door frame. "Shit" I screamed
