Fix You - A The Script/Danny O'Donoghue Fanfic

Chapter 37

Dan helped me into the flat, leaving me on the sofa whilst he went to get snacks. Shawn would be back soon. Well, tomorrow, but that is pretty soon.

“Hey, did you want to go to bed?” Danny asked as he caught me mid yawn.

“Not yet Danno.” He sat down beside me and passed me a bowl of sweets. “You are awesome.” I smiled at him.

“Very true.” He agreed, wrapping an arm around me and pulling me close. “Did you want to tell me why you did it?” And I did, mostly, I just couldn’t talk about it today. I’m sure Shawn will want to hear the story as well.

“Can it wait Dan, please?” I pleaded.

“Of course darling.” He replied, kissing my head softly. “Whenever you’re ready.” I pulled my phone out, bringing up my messages to Susan. ‘hey, we good?’ and then I closed it down, too nervous to wait for her reply. I can see that tomorrow. Danny had finished his sweets and kept stealing mine.

“Danny!” I whined. “This isn’t fair.”

“Sure is, you are too slow.” He laughed.

“Fine, can we go to bed?” He nodded and helped me up. I was so tired, we had been sat there for a while even though it didn’t feel like it. He helped me get comfortable. “Why does my bed smell like you?” I asked after lying down. I saw the slight blush and the cheeky smile on his face.

“Glen made me sleep in here, you know when I was drunk and…. Yeah.” He replied, he turned to leave, but I grabbed his hand.

“Dan, would you stay with me?” I asked quietly, whenever he stays the nightmares go away. Right now, I need him. He turned the light off and climbed into bed with me. I couldn’t help but snuggle into him. “I meant what I said you know.” I yawned. He just hummed, maybe he’s as tired as me. He started singing quietly, that always makes me drift off to sleep. It was The Fray ‘Be Still’, I love that song and hate it because I usually cry. But this time I just smiled and soon drifted into a deep, dreamless and peaceful sleep.

I woke up with Danny’s arms wrapped around me, I could tell he was awake but we both stayed quiet.

“You are really comfortable.” I mumbled after a while.

“And you are adorable.” He laughed, making me blush. “I mean it Amy. I love you, no one else.” I made myself sit up.

“I’m going to make some breakfast want anything?” I asked, I heard him sigh behind me. I just didn’t want to talk about this right now.

“I’ll start the bacon.”

“I don’t eat bacon Dan.” I smiled as we reached the kitchen.
