Danny's POV

So everything was going well with Clo and Chris, they had the grand opening for the cafe (which Clo insisted was Beatles themed) last night...  They looked so happy... I still really wanted her but she seemed happy and that was the important thing... I wasn't going to stand in the way of that...
Everything was going well for me and Irma anyway, definitely better than last time! I sat in bed thinking, I didn't know what I was feeling really, I didn't know if I was happy or not... My phone went off

...I think I want you more than want...

"Yo Clo!" Possibly the most uncool thing I've ever said, but she went along with it

"Whattup Danny boy?!" She giggled in her sweet little way

"Haha, you alright??"

"Yeh, I'm good... Are you ok" 

"Yep!" 

"I was just wondering if you wanted to come to the cafe for some breakie??" If it was anything like the pancakes she made, i was there (and i knew i was happy then!)

"Oh hell yes! Im starving... i'll just get my stuff  together"

"You can bring Irma if you like, the more the merrier" I knew Chris was going to be there so what harm would it do to stop of at Irma's to see if she wanted to come...?

"Yeh, i'll pick her up on my way"

"Ok, see ye in a bit" I put the phone down without saying bye which felt weird so I just had to text her to say it. She didn't sound as happy and I thought maybe she was just being polite asking me if Irma wanted to come but I got ready and went to hers anyway... I rang the doorbell twice and eventually she answered the door 

"Its early Dan" What a wonderful way to be greeted by your girlfriend

"Its half 10... do you wanna come out for some breakfast... my treat" She looked at the floor as if her bare feet had the answer "Are you ok?" I thought things were going well with Irma but she was being really off with me and i felt it was my duty to find out what was wrong

"Dan, we need to talk" She eventually plucked up the courage to say and I could see where this was going but I thought I would pretend I didnt

"Shoot" I chirped

"Its just... I dont think... Dan, I dont think we should see each other anymore" I wanted to laugh, i could feel it rising up inside me... i really didnt know what was wrong with me

"Babe, who is it?" I heard a guys voice say from her apartment... then all the laughter just came out

"Yeh sure, its totally over... BABE" i managed to say through my hysterical laughter and with a sarcastic tone at the end and she shut the door... On my short walk p to the cafe i was still laughing to myself, i didnt know why i found being dumped so funny (although i knew deep down i would never be happy with anyone else other than Clo). I walked into the cafe and was greeted by a very smiley Clover, I returned the smile and walked over to give her a hug

"Irma doesn't like breakfast then?" She joked

"I think its me that she doesn't like... I just got dumped!" I said, not laughing anymore but Clo had a massive smile on her face which made me have a tiny laugh "Wow! could you look a little happier" I said cheekily

"Sorry, its just... you are waaaayyyy too good for her"

"who is good enough for me then" I was serious... and she just looked down... i lifted up her head and looked at her beautiful eyes... I could have told her how i felt... I could have kissed her but she turned it into a hug and then Chris walked in

"Plenty more fish in the sea anyway" She said as she pulled away... I didn't know if i had upset her or what but she just went into the back kitchen and didn't come out again until my breakfast was ready

Clo's POV

I wish i had told him then, that look was more than just a look but i knew he didnt want me... how could he? Danny was the definition of perfect... and i was just me... i was half happy with Chris anyway (or so i thought). I was hungry and needed to eat so i sat down with Danny and had my breakfast as well, the silence was unbearable

"She cheated on you...?" I said 

"How did you guess?" 

"She just seemed like that kind of girl... im sorry Dan... but you definitely deserve better"

"Well thats never gunna happen... the only girl i love doesn't deserve me" I didn't know what to say to that... was he talking about Irma or what? we just returned to the silence until our plates were clean "We've got a gig tomorrow night in Cork... i have a couple of spare tickets if you and Chris wanna come... I need a drive down there as well" 

"Ha, knew there was a catch... we're gonna have to leave tonight then and stay in a hotel, there is no way im getting up early to drive you down the country!" 

"Ok, ill book a hotel..." The conversation was still really awkward and i didn't know how i was going to handle ours in a car with that... but that look we shared... that was something else...
