I sat in my room scrolling through twitter when my phone buzzed and I saw I had a message from Robbie.
Robbie : Seriously, we need to have a Twilight marathon
Lily : You're kidding right?
Robbie : I'm completely serious, I have all five firms on DVD and we are going to watch them
Lily : Oh my god hahah fine, when?
Robbie : Tomorrow?
Lily : I don't think I'm busy, I'll have to ask Dan, I have no idea if he's got something planned for tomorrow. What time?
Robbie : Hmm, like 6 or something, we can get pizza
Lily : Six? If we're going to watch all five films we'll be watching them all night...
Robbie : It's okay, my parents will be okay with you staying over
Lily : Yours might be but there's no way Dan will let me
Robbie : Aww pleaseee it'll be fun! Plus, Twilight is better in the dark
Lily : Fine, I'll ask him but I don't think he'll let me go
I sighed and walked out of my room and into the music room where Dan was sat at his piano playing a random melody.
"Daaaan"
"Yeeees" he turned round.
Now how's the best way to say this?
"Can I stay at a friend's tomorrow night?" I asked shyly.
"Which friend?"
"Uh..." I debated with myself whether I should lie and say Kate or something or just tell him the truth. "Robbie"
"No" Dan said firmly.
"Pleeeease" I bobbed up and down.
"No, absolutely not, no way" he shook his head.
"Please? Why not?" I asked looking into his eyes.
"Because I said so" he avoided eye contact.
"Dan" he looked into my eyes.
"Lily, you're not staying at Robbie's house, especially at night" he looked away.
"Why not? We're not going to do anything" I responded, causing him to look at me again.
"Why do you want to stay at his house?" He asked, ignoring my comment.
"Twilight marathon" I replied flatly.
"Twilight?" He laughed. "That doesn't sound like you"
"It wasn't my choice but Robbie really wants us to have a Twilight marathon" I said looking down.
"Sorry, my answer is still no" I looked back up at Dan with pleading eyes.
"Please?"
"No"
An idea popped into my mind.
"Well then can he stay here?" I asked.
"What? No" Dan replied, taken back.
"Why not? That way you can make sure we're not doing anything that you don't want us to do" I gave him the puppy eyes.
"No, you're not having a 'sleepover' with a boy" he said firmly.
