[E L A I N A  H O P E]

it's been several weeks since daniel and i declared that we could be friends, no matter what people though of it. let's just say, we're almost as close now as we were four years ago when we were actually dating. each day i have fallen for him even harder, and each day i just want to call him mine again.

one day, i was lounging on the couch in my apartment after just getting back from a shoot, when i got a text from daniel.

dani boi🐍: pls come over. i am dying of boredom slowly but surely and it's gonna kill me within thirty minutes if you don't get your ass over here, because knowing you, you're just sitting on the couch watching netflix after finishing a shoot, am i correct?

dani boi🐍: did you seriously change your own contact name to 'i luv gay snailz🐌'???

i luv gay snailz🐌: duh, bitch. don't you luv gay snailz too?

dani boi🐍: this convo just got really weird. now get your ass off the couch and come over before my dead body falls off the bed.

i shut off my phone and got up, just now realizing that i'm smiling like a total and utter idiot. this man is now the center of my universe. my whole life revolves around him, just as it did many years ago.

i take myself out of my thoughts and walk out the door of my apartment and down to my car. when i reach the car, i turn on some music and drive down to their house.

once i get to their house, i go to the side of the house where some garbage cans and a ladder is. i unfold the ladder and put it up to daniel's bedroom window, then climb my way up there.

i peer inside the room no he's not in it, so i just go inside and lay on his bed, playing on my phone. this room brings back memories. this is the room i spent most of my days in when he and i were still together. this is the room in which daniel and i slept together multiple times in. this is the room where i fell in love with daniel more and more as each day passed.

as i enter the instagram app on my phone, i hear a bang from across the room.

"holy fuck, you scared me. i thought there was a fucking intruder in my room." i looked up to see daniel standing in the doorway, holding his hand on his heart and breathing heavily do to being scared shitless.

"you're welcome!" i chirped, sitting up and showing a toothy grin. "so you were bored, what do you want to do?"

"i don't know, that's why i wanted you to come over because i am fucking clueless." he said in a 'duh' tone.

"you wanna lay down and watch iconic vines all day?" i questioned.

"sure, why not. vine died six years ago but you know what, it will never be dead in my heart." he told me, grabbing his macbook and opening up youtube.

once he got youtube up, he laid down next to me and typed in 'vines that cured my depression', because that's our favorite set of vines.

"NO OFF TOPIC QUESTIONS!" i yelled.

"YOU HAVE BEEN STOPPED." daniel ordered, and we both busted out laughing.

then one of my favorite ones came on, "TWO BROS CHILLIN' IN A HOT TUB, FIVE FEET ABOUT CAUSE THEY'RE NOT GAY!" i yelled loudly.

daniel chuckled and we continued watching the video, well i continued watching the video. he was staring at me the whole time, but i pretended not to notice.

eventually, the video ended and he was still staring at me, so i turned my head and asked, "why do you keep staring at me?"

"because you're beautiful." he mumbled.

i felt all the blood rush to my cheeks and i closed my eyes in bliss. once i opened them again, i looked right into the eyes of daniel james seavey. his big, blue beautiful eyes that i could get lost in. i hadn't even noticed we were both leaning in and i could practically feel his hot breath on my lips. our lips brushed together, and both of us closed our eyes and went in.

our lips molded together in harmony, melting into one another like they were one. there were so many sparks between us, more than there had ever been before. my stomach was filled with butterflies. not just one or two, but the whole swarm of butterflies was having a dance part inside of my stomach. my heart rate picked up, and in that moment, there was no one else there but us. in that moment, it was perfect.

"i'm so sorry for everything i've done in the past." he whispered. "i'm sorry for cheating and lying. i'm sorry for ruining everything. i know i messed it all up, but if you really will, i want you to be mine again. and this time, forever."

"of course, dani." i whispered back, locking our lips once more.

and in that moment, i was complete.
