I wake up and can't remember much of yesterday. I was starving and lifted the covers. I wasn't in my room. I got hit with a flashback of last night. I covered my face with my hands and thought. Just thought. I've been doing alot of that lately. I was in Dan's room. I really hoped he wasn't next to me and he wasn't. I layed back down trying to sleep again. It was 9:00 and I was unusually tired. I heard the door click and shut my eyes pretending to sleep. After a few seconds the door opened and the wind hit my face.
Dan slowly creeped in checking on me and then looking for something and was humming softly. He walked passed me and went to get something from a bag. Dan bent over revealing his boxers a bit. I watched him and tilted my head upwards.
"Like the view?" He laughed.
Of course, he could see me in the mirror next to him. I ducked my head under the sheets and heard him walk over. I was blushing and felt him sit next to me. I only lifted my eyes and he looked concerned.
"Are you feeling better?"
I nodded. "Yeah." then coughed really loudly into my arm. It hurt.
"Ok, so I'm going to get you some lozenges for your throat."
He left and I layed back down and stared at the celing. Dan Howell is getting me lozenges. Wow. My life. I was still al bit shy around him, but I could tell he was comfortable around me.
He came back into the room and tossed the bag at me.
"Get ready, we're going fridge shopping."
"What? You are going to buy a fridge?"
"No, You are." Im confused. "I already have a frigde."
"Not anymore." He smiles, trying to lighten the mood. "The office was looking for you last night and we told them you were staying with us." He paused and let me think. "They also brought pictures from...um.." He cleared his throat. "your flat." He handed them to me and all I saw was black. The fridge, the oven, the door, my whole kitchen and dining area. I put my hand over my wide open mouth. I felt tears drip down my face and don't bother to wipe them off.
"You can go get some things later if you want, but they want to remove the ash before you stay." I dont reply.
He tries to calm me down and pet me but I pull back. I was not used to people around me.
"Sorry."
I fake a smile and a deep breath. "Fridge Shopping. Let's go."
He smiles at me and leaves me alone in his room. I get up and tidy the bed as he knocks.
"May I come in?"
"Yea, this is your room."
"Well ye-...you didn't have to clean up, I could have done it."
"No, I was your guest... it's like I was never here."
He smiles the biggest smile and his dimples show. He was adorable. I smile back then look down.
"Oh...Do you want anything to eat?"
"No, you've done enough for me, I'll get something later."
"Are you sure? We have lots of cereal."
"no, yea, I'm fine. But, um... can I use your toilet, please?"
He nods "Yea right down the hall." pointing to the left. I walk past the lounge and say goodmorning to Phil who is eating breakfast. He is a little blurry, I had slept in my contacts but it was becoming clearer.
I walk to the toilet and look at myself in the mirror my makeup was slightly smudged and there were tear streaks from last night. How did they stomach to look at me. I was a mess. I took a hair tie and put up my hair. There were many soaps on the table, I wasn't sure which one to use.
I leaned out to the hall.
"Dan?""Yeah?"
"What soap do I use?"
He slides down the hall on his socks. Wow, that was cute...
"Erm, any one, I use this on for my face."
"Ok thanks"
I turn on the water and immediately drench my top. I take it off to reveal my pink lace bra and hold my top in between my legs and continue.
"If there isn't enough there is more in the cabinet." he says, opening the door. And stares at me.
"Jesus, sorry" He says, cringing and sheilding his eyes.
"Oh, no its alright." I say, putting on my top, blushing. So is Dan. I guess I was used to people seeing me without a top. I went to an all girls school and we would walk around the locker room topless.
"What happened?" Phil looks past Dan and whistles. I blushed bright red.
"Phil!" Dan yells. They both leave and I finish up.
I walk down to the front door and then to my flat. I know what I'm going to see. I'm not going to ruin a good morning with this.
I walk back to their flat and call them.
"Did you get you things?" Dan called
"No, Im afraid of going in there"
He doesn't answer.
"Are you too ready?"
"Almost!" I hear Phil from the kitchen.
I wait for almost 15 minutes when Phil runs down the stairs. "Ok, lets go."
"Where's Dan?" I ask.
"I thought he was here with you. He isn't upstairs, I turned off all the lights."
I start up the stairs when the door opened behind us to see Dan holding my phone, wallet and a new clean top.
"Ok, let's go!" he cheers.
"Did you go get my stuff from my flat?"
"Yea, i thought you would need them."
"Thank you. I kiss him on the cheek and he blushes." I was standing on the stairs so we were close to the same hight. I'm usually a whole foot shorter than him.
"Ooh." Phil teases.
I blush and roll my eyes. Then we head off to the mall.
