Tom's P.O.V.
I had got a call from Harry. We were going to practice in his basement, he had finally got permission from his parents. So now I was on my way to Harrys house. This just wouldn't be a very nice practice. I just knew. It was the first time since my fight with Danny that I was going to see him. I was hoping that we could ignore the whole thing about me and Danny, 'cause we really couldn't do the band if one of us left. Everyone in the band had a talent, and we couldn't afford to lose one. I didn't even know if Dougie and Harry knew anything about it. If they didn't notice anything today, maybe it was going the right way? Maybe we just had to ignore it?
"Hey Tom!" Harry smiled when I stepped into his basement. I quickly scanned the room. Danny wasn't here yet. Dougie sat on the floor trying to tune his bass. "Hey," I smiled and sat my guitarbag on the floor to unpack it. "Do you know where Danny is?" Dougie asked me. "Uhm.. No, I don't.." I said and tried to ignore the feeling of guilt I got, when he mentioned Danny. "Hm, he should be here by now.. You live further away from here than Danny does, maybe I should call him again?" Harry said. I pretended not to hear him and started tuning my guitar. "Tom." he said. I looked up at him, "What?" I said and sighed. "Do you think I should call him?" he asked me. I shrugged. Why did I have to answer this? "I don't know.." I just said. The door opened and Danny stepped inside. "There you are!" Harry said and smiled at Danny. He quickly looked at me with an emotionless stare and moved his gaze to Harry and smiled. I sighed and continued tuning my guitar. "Hey Doug," he said and Dougie looked up and smiled. "Tom," he said and I just nodded like I was really busy tuning the guitar, though I had already tuned it...
We played some songs – just covers, 'cause we hadn't made anyone ourself yet – and it actually went pretty good, even though me and Danny didn't really talk. We took a break and Harry and Dougie started talking while me and Danny didn't really say anything. Only when either Harry og Dougie said something to us. I guess we could ignore it enough to not talk about it, but we still couldn't talk to each other. "Sorry for asking, but what the hell is up with you two?" Dougie suddenly said while Harry was in the middle of a sentence. They both looked at me and then at Danny. I quickly looked at Danny and then down my shoes. "Nothing," I heard Danny say. "Are you sure mann? None of you are saying anything to each other, it's like you're mad at each other?" Dougie said. "We're just tired I guess," Danny said. I sighed. "Hm, whatever.." Dougie said and got up. I got up, too. "You said you had some songs, why don't we work on them?" "Uh, don't know.." I said. "Bring some next time," Harry said and got up, too. I nodded. "Want some cokes?" he said. We all nodded. "Come with me, Dougie." he said, and he and Dougie left the basement. Typical! Me and Danny alone. Silence.. "Soo.. You and Clara are together now?" Danny suddenly said. I shrugged. "Don't really now, kind of.. But.. On a loose basis.." I said. "Hm.." he said. "Hey mann, I'd wish you'd be OK with it.." I said. "Hm, yeah.. I'll just have to get used to it.." he said. I thought about what to say next. He just cleared his throat, maybe 'cause this silence was a bit awkward. "You know.." I started and he looked at me. "I think this thing.. The band.. Could be a great thing, so.. Maybe we should make peace?" I continued, and my heart began to beat a bit faster when I saw him thinking a bit about it before he said something, "You're right, at least it shouldn't ruin the band.. And we can't be enemies if we're in the same band, that would be stupid.." he said. I smiled a bit.
Danny's P.O.V.
I really didn't want to make up with Tom right now, but I knew he was right. We had to. For the band's sake. I guess I just had to get over Clara and go back to seeing her as a friend. But that really did seem hard at the moment. Especially when I knew that Tom had got her. Well, "kind of" at least. It felt like there had been this kind of a 'competition' between me and Tom, and Clara was the prize. The prize that Tom had won. I guess all of it was my own fault. If I hadn't told Tom to leave her alone and if I hadn't got that mad at them for being together, I would still have that great old friendship with Clara. Now I had ruined it all. I had fallen in love with my best friend, and kind of ruined our friendship – at least made it very weird at the moment – and I had been really mean towards Tom, too. I was an idiot. I noticed the way Toms face lightened a bit up and I felt bad for still being a bit mad at him. At least he couldn't help liking Clara, just as I couldn't either. So anyway, now me and Tom had made peace, at least a little. Deep down, I guess I was a bit glad.
