I waited for Dan outside coffee on a cold damp Sunday afternoon. *Late Again* I thought to myself. I checked my phone to see if I had any new messages. *No New Messages* this was typical Dan. Always late. Always an excuse. Whether it was because he overslept, or because he was finishing writing down ideas for his new video. Not that I minded, maybe I should mind and he wouldn't be late so often. But it was just Dan. And I wouldn't change anything about him for the world.
As I looked up from my phone, I saw a familiar figure rushing towards me. His deep brown slightly flowing in the cold wind, with hands furrowed inside his coat pockets. And White hi-top trainers slushing in the puddles. "Sorry I'm late!" He said before standing in front of me. I handed him his caramel macchiato before chuckling. "Umm... I was finishing editing a video." He said innocently. I had been friends with Dan for years; I could tell when he was lying. "More like you couldn't be bothered to get of your ass off of Tumblr to come and see me" I laughed. "Hey! Don't make it out like I didn't want to see you." He smiled nudging his arm against mine. "Yeah, Yeah" I said wrapping my cold fingers around my slightly hot coffee cup. "So what are the plans for today?" He asked taking a sip from his cup. "I'm not too bothered; we could go back to yours and play Skyrim for a bit if you like?" I asked knowing he'd agree. "See... This is why I'm friends with you." He smiled. "What? We're friends because I play Skyrim with you?" Dan laughed. "Along with other reasons of course!"
Nice Save.
Me and Dan were never friend's without someone saying that we should be a couple. Some of his fans say it, even some of our family say it. But me and Dan constantly remind them that we're quite happy being friends. This was true for Dan but not entirely true for me. I had liked Dan properly for almost 4 years now. And every day I had to constantly fight the urge to tell him how I feel. I'm terrified of the fact that he might turn around to me and say he doesn't feel the same way. And our friendship would be ruined. Forever.
My friendship with Dan means more to me than anything in the world. My friend Alli always says that I shouldn't even attempt to damage our friendship because of some silly crush. But it wasn't a crush. I was completely and utterly in love with Daniel Howell. And I always will be.
