ALANA

‘Heyyyyyyy!’

‘Where are you?’

‘I’m not trying to stalk you, I was just wondering…’

‘Do you fancy texting Dan back? He’s getting emotional because he thinks you hate him.’

These were just a few of the many texts that I received from Josh. It felt strange. I mean, it’s not every day that you talk to your favourite band, is it? Well, since that day, I have talked to them every day. Although, until he mentioned it, I had forgotten to reply to Dan.

I wonder if he actually thinks I hate him.

My bet is that Josh is just being dramatic.

I like talking to Dan. He’s easy to talk to. It doesn’t feel awkward. Sort of like I’ve known him my whole life.

‘Hi :) sorry I didn’t text you back, I kind of forgot :|’

It didn’t take him long to reply. Josh probably was being a little over dramatic.

‘Oh, it’s okay, I was just going to text you anyway :)’

‘Were you? :’)’

‘Yeah, I was actually going to ask if you want to meet me in a bit?’

Wow. He wanted to meet up with me? Just me? He must like me. Or maybe he’s just being nice?

I really need to stop overthinking things…

‘Oh were you?’

‘Yeah, I mean you don’t have to, but it would be nice :)’

Well, how could I say no to him? You just can’t.

‘Yeah sure, that would be nice :’) when?’

‘Two hours, outside starbucks?’

‘Sure :)’

------------------------

2 hours passed extremely quickly. In no time at all, I was standing outside starbucks, waiting for Dan.

What if he didn’t come? Oh god, I’m sure he will.

I didn’t get dressed up. It would look a bit stupid if I got completely dressed up to walk into starbucks. I just wore a pair of red jeans, black converse and a Dead Kennedys t-shirt.

I waited there for only a few more minutes before I saw him walking around the corner.

He looked good.

He was wearing a pair of plain black jeans and a grey ‘Drop Dead’ jumper. I tried not to stare at him as he walked down, but it proved to be quite hard. He waved at me with a smile as he walked down.

What do I say? I mean, it’s a lot easier over the phone.

‘Hi Lana, how are you?’, he said, calm as ever. Well of course he would be calm. He has no reason not to be.

‘I’m fine thanks, how are you?’ I managed a smile. I wanted to smile, of course, but it is hard when there is a beautiful man standing merely inches in front of you.

‘I’m very good, thank you’.

He smiled at me and motioned for me to go into starbucks.

DAN

So I finally get to see her again. She looked beautiful. I was a nervous wreck, as I always am around her.

Why Daniel, why?!

I’m such an idiot, she probably thinks I’m an idiot. She probably doesn’t even want to be here.

Why am I thinking this now? It’s a bit late for it now.

‘So, what have you been up to lately?’ she said, smiling.

I love that smile.

‘Oh, nothing really. I’ve just sat at home, being boring.’

She laughed at that.

Did I mention that I love her laugh too? No? Well I do.

The rest of the afternoon continues this way. After a couple of hours, we said our goodbyes and went home. I didn’t want to leave her. Of course I didn’t. I told her that we should meet up again, that it was fun. She said yes.

I think I’ve fallen in love.
