"Where is he going?" Zach nudged Corbyn's ribs a bit to harsh for the poor boy, causing him to hiss in pain and smack Zach's chest with the back of his hand. Zach opened his mouth as well as in pain but nothing came out as he glared at Corbyn.

"you hit me first" Corbyn muttered "I don't know, the gym? Probably. Wait... he doesn't know where the gym i-"

"Daniel where the fuck are you going?" Zach blurted out, causing Corbyn to close his eyes in madness. He seriously cannot deal with a sixteen year old in his household (a/n bITCH I KNOW HE'S SEVENTEEN BUT THIS IS THE PAST SO SHUT THE FUCK UP My beautiful child)

Daniel turned around, "going for a walk"

"huh"

Daniel nodded slowly and looked at his friends with a weird look. But hey, it's Corbyn and Zach, what do you expect from these two spontaneous kids?

He shook his head and headed out once again, leaving Corbyn and Zach with doubtful thoughts.

"wanna go after him?"

"hell no"

Zach stared at him with a blank expression.

"fuck yes"

While Daniel went on a walk down the street and having two persons behind him at a total of 10 feet apart, he heard a girl singing, well not singing but screaming the lyrics which belonged to a song he knew.

He furrowed his eyebrows and stopped walking, trying to focus on the person shouting the lyrics. The voice sounded awfully familiar, his heart beating out of his chest.

That's when he realized that the song was 'Tomorrow Never Dies' by 5 Seconds Of Summer. He chuckled softly and kept walking but heard something scrape against the concrete floor, making him turn around, catching Zach jump over a bush and Corbyn attempting to do the same but instead got kicked in the face by Zach.

"You imbeciles, the fuck are you doing here?" Daniel rolled his eyes and walked towards the two dumb kids.

Corbyn whined and he touched the painful mark Zach left on his forehead, that was definitely going to leave a bruise there.

Zach shushed Corbyn, "don't answer"

"Zach I already know you're there"

"shit"

"Yeah, why are you both following me?"

Corbyn huffed "We both saw you a bit off, not cheerful, sad, I don't know man, you just weren't yourself" he frowned. Instead, Daniel grinned softly, appreciating their friends for worrying about him.

"I'm just- I'll tell you once we get home. I'd rather sit down and tell you 'cause well... you need to put ice on that right now" Daniel pointed out at Corbyn's painful now forming bruise. Once Zach stood up, they started walking to Corbyn's house.

"Ah man, I could've just stopped by at his house and say hi or something" Corbyn muttered quite loud.

"Whose house?" Daniel questioned, confused and surprised at Corbyn talking to himself.

Corbyn looked up at Daniel, "Oh just a friend I invited to the concert tonight, along with another friend of mine. Wonder if she got some merch"

Daniel nodded absent minded but kept walking towards his friend's house.

They arrived after a few minutes and Zach was quite anxious to hear why Daniel was off.

They got inside, got some snacks, got comfortable in the couch and stared at Daniel as if he were from another planet.

"internet girlfriend is pissed at me cause I didn't tell her I was going to another state"

Corbyn's jaw dropped. "you're fucking stupid"

"wow thanks, I feel much better now" He rolled his eyes and flipped him off.

"Sorry" he apologized "But wait I'm confused, can you like... give us a more detailed story?"

Daniel clicked "Oh um yeah, i texted her once I was in the plane and she spammed me, obviously worried. I didn't tell her where I was going before; when you told me when we were going. I answered, she got mad and yes she has all rights to be mad at me. I decided to not text her and give her some space" he explained blankly.

Zach was first to comment, "Text her now"

"W-What?"

Corbyn nodded "Yeah, at least tell her where you are, if you haven't"

Daniel's pulled out his phone, going to messages and seeing the contact name that made his heart to everything in the world.

Me: I'm in New Jersey if you wanted to know. Also going to a 5SOS concert there.

A notification popped up in front of the conversation making his heart drop.

Message Not Sent
this person isn't receiving messages at this time

"She blocked me" a sigh left his lips. Both of his friends did the same while glancing at each other.

"You know what?," Daniel sighed while putting his phone on airplane mode and down, later clapping his hands together while attempting to change his das expression, "Let's not get all sappy with me. We're going to a fucking concert tonight and I'm here being all whiny and shit, also getting you guys down. Let's watch a movie or I don't know" Daniel tried his best to look alive and happy.

Sadly, Corbyn and Zach followed, but on the inside knowing that his friend was trying to cheer them up.

Daniel stood up to grab some chips, ignoring the uncomfortable feeling in his stomach; anxiety. He also grabbed some water for himself along with four cans of sodas; two for each of his friends.

He came back and handed the boys chips and their sodas, both of them thanking them quietly. Corbyn decided to play a movie on Netflix called 'Cargo'. Daniel wasn't bothered and neither was Zach. But Corbyn was all shook and talking about the movie, it ended with Zach making him shut up with a smack on the thigh.

They watched the movie, Corbyn shouting every time a zombie passed by. Daniel wasn't that much amused, he simply laughed at his friend's expressions.

That was when he found himself falling asleep slowly. The two boys realized and turned the tv off and made their way upstairs silently since they're loud.

If only Daniel hadn't put his phone on airplane mode...
