Over The Edge - Bars And Melody

9) Today's The Day

*Daisy's P.O.V*

So today's the day I'm going round Charlie's. I'm going to make the effort, so I'll straighten my hair and have a high pony tail, with some loose strands to shape my face. Nice make up today I think, eyeliner - but no flick as I'm AWFUL at those - light gold eyeshadow and long lashes with the help of my new mascara. What should I wear? I brought a new white and gold crop top from Topshop the other day, so I'll wear that with some ripped white jeans and white vans. Hopefully Charlie likes what I'm wearing. I don't know why I'm so worried or bothered, we're only mates. It's not like we like eachother. Do we?

*Charlie's P.O.V*

Brought a new top specially for Daisy to come round today, it's sort of acid wash slash tie dye with light blue, white and greeny turquiosey colours all mixed in. I'll wear blue jeans with it and my nike socks. God Charlie why are you so worried about socks? She probably won't even notice I'm making all this effort anyway! She'll be here soon. Need to get my act together. Perhaps we'll chill like mates. I don't want to make her uncomfortable or anything, after all she hasn't suspected anything yet.

~one hour later~

"Hi Daisy! Haven't seen you in ages! How've you been?" said Charlie, as she raced through the door and grabbed hold of him. It was a friendly hug, but it was a moment that they'd both remember forever. Charlie could smell Daisy's fresh scent, she smelt like flowers and fruits and everything sweet, and Daisy felt his arms wrapped around her, holding close as if he were never to let her go. "Great" she said, pulling away slowly, "I've been great" she smiled.

"So what are we doing today then Lenehan? And by the way you've still got some explaining to do!" Daisy exclaimed as they made their way towards the living room. Charlie put the telly on and flicked through the channels. Nothing was on, so he turned it off and turned to face Daisy slowly. "Yeah, I've been meaning to explain, I know you must be pretty angry as I was never returning calls or texts, I did want to see you - I wasn't ignoring you, I swear! It's just that..."
-"You went on Britain's Got Talent and got a golden buzzer, completely smashed the roof off of the audition arena AND didn't tell me?" Daisy butted in jokingly. "Errr .... yeah.... that..." Charlie's face fell to face the ground. "What's wrong Charlie? I didn't upset you did I? I'm not angry with you, I know you must have been really busy, I get it!" Daisy's face saddened at the thought of upsetting her friend. "What's that on your wrist Charlie? Is that a hospi- oh my god it is! Are you okay? What happened?!" she glanced at the hospital tag still wrapped round Charlie's wrist. 'Crap' he thought to himself. 'Now I have to really tell her'.

"Promise me you won't get angry with me?" said Charlie, sitting down next to Daisy on the sofa. "I promise, I could never be angry with you!" Daisy replied, curiously. "Okay well the thing is, I did something, stupid. And don't ask me why because that part I really CANT tell you. But I took an overdose." Daisy's face dropped and her jaw hung wide open. "Overdose?! You mean you tried to kill yourself?! Why Charlie?!" "No, I didn't try to kill myself, more like I tried to cool myself. I smoked drugs and stuff, I'm so sorry, I thought it'd make an impression on you, See the thing is...Daisy Carter I'm not the best at this but I think I'm in love with you. And I know you don't feel the same because you're too popular for me and no ones ever liked me but I just thought I'd let you know because I couldn't keep it from you. Every time I see you I get goosebumps and everything about you is perfect to me, You're completely and utterly flawless and you're kind and you're funny and you're everything I want, everything I need, and that is why -"
Daisy shut him up with a kiss on the lips. Not a snog, nothing gross, a sweet but passionate kiss, their first kiss. Their first moment. Sparks flew round both of their stomachs and Daisy ran her fingers through the natural curls in Charlie's hair. As they slowly pulled away from eachother Charlie finished the sentence that he'd long awaited to say. "-and that is why I love you."
"I love you too Charlie Lenehan. But promise me you'll never EVER do ANYTHING stupid like that ever again, not for me not for anyone. I don't care what you think you have to do to get my attention. You've always got it."

"I promise, I'm so sorry"

And with that they continued the day watching films cuddled up on the sofa together. That day was the start of a whole new chapter of both of their lives, more importantly their lives together.
