In the view of Danielle Harrison
"Danielle, no matter how shitty last night was, you still have no excuse to not get out of bed." Anya laughs, pulling the blankets out of my firm grip.
"No." I groan lowly, stuffing my face in the pillows roughly.
She tries to pull the pillows away from me, but I've got my hands wrapped tightly around the sides. I had one mighty death grip holding onto this. "Dani, don't be a child. You can find another guy who's willing to treat you right almost everywhere. Just..trust me when I say that I wanna help you find a better guy, ok?"
I turn my head slightly, revealing my face from the pillows and say, "You promise?." I laugh, letting go of the pillows and rising up from the bed. I sit upright in bed and sigh. "Why must love be so confusing?"
"I don't know, Dani. I really don't know." She grabs my hands and yanks me off the bed, dragging me onto the floor where she obviously suspected me to stand on my own, when I dropped straight to the floor and curled up in a ball. "Are you fucking kidding me?" She giggles. "Whatever, lay on the floor like a depressed and hormonal female." She laughs again, walking into the kitchen to grab herself a cup of coffee.
"Fuck you, Anya." I spit out with a chuckle. "Ok seriously, help me up." She slugs back over to me and pulls me to my feet. I stand straight and rub my eyes, turning my head towards Anya, who's standing there in front of me with her arms crossed. "Oh stop." I walk over to my closet and rummage through, looking for decent clothes for the day. I pulled out a light denim dress, lace tights and a pair of black flats and put it all on as slow as I possibly could to annoy Anya.
"Jesus, just get dressed." She laughs, walking up behind me as I slip my pants on. "How about today, instead of crying about your life all day in bed, we go out and get some coffee. Go to the mall. Go to the bookstore. Anywhere that's not here."
I look at her with a confused look. "That is not what I do everyday, you asshole." I laugh.
"Sure it isn't." She walks to my side and looks down at me. "Could you be any slower?" I start to move slowly, making weird faces at her as I do. I watch her face turn annoyed, but amused. "Fuck you." She laughs, walking back out to the living room. "Ok, now that you're dressed, can we do something?" She asks as I slip on my last shoe.
"Fine, whatever." I laugh, grabbing my bag and my phone. "Let's go then." I say, standing in front of her with a smile.
"Oh so, now you wanna do something." She says suprised with a laugh, grabbing her purse and following me out the door.
Day 1 without Alex is actually going pretty well. Sure, my mind has vered over to thoughts and memories of him, but I've fortuantely learned how to push them away and learned how to focus more on my best friend, not Alex.
"Oh oh, we should get ice cream." Anya squeals, grabbing my hand and pulling me a local ice cream store. She gasps and puts her hand over her mouth after stopping right in front of me, which causes me to drop my phone from my hands to the floor. "They have superman. Holy shit, yes!" She runs to the counter and points happily at the ice cream cooler. I kneel down to the floor, trying not to my panties, as I reach down for my phone.
Unfortuantely, some douchebag comes in through the door, which I was only a few feet away from, talking on the phone and slams into me, causing me to fall even more to the ground. "What the hell, man?" I spit angrily.
"I am so sorry." He says, kneeling down to my side to help me up. He reaches his hand out to mine and holds it there for a while, waiting for me to take it.
I can hear Anya run over, but stop half way and slowly backs up with a small smirk on her face. She continues to eat her icecream as she slides into a seat near the back.
Well, thanks.
I grabbed his hand and held my dress the best I could as he helped me up. Once I'm up, I look him in the eyes..those beautiful green eyes and giggle girlishly, "Thanks." I fix my braid and continue to stand in front of him. He had short hair, but long enough for it to be completely messy. He had a long sleeved Pink Flyod baseball style t-shirt, dark jeans and black vans. "What's your name?" I ask.
"John. You?"
"Danielle." I say, smiling widely at him.
Something about him stricked me as familiar, I just couldn't put my finger on it. "Do I know you?" I asked him.
I suddenly remembering seeing a picture of him on a music website that All Time Low had been on once. I must have scrolled past his band to quick to catch the name. "Wait, are you in some band?" I laugh.
"Yeah." He chuckles back.
I scan my brain to see if anything would come back to me and remembered a band with the word 'Maine' in it. "Do you have a band with the word 'Maine' in it?" I giggle, dumbly.
"Yeah, it's called The Maine."
"Ah, I thought I knew you!" I giggle again. "Hey, I've never listened to your music before, so sorry."
"Don't worry about it." He smiles brightly at me. "If it's ok, I'd like to buy you a coffee as an "I'm sorry" for knocking you over." He laughs.
I nod and say, "If you insist."
He walks over to the counter, me following close behind and he asks, "What do you want?"
"Surprise me." I laugh. He smiles at me and turns to the woman behind the register.
"One Caffè Misto and one-"
I cut him off and laugh, "Sorry but, you like the Caffè Misto?
He nods and laughs, "Yeah."
"Make it two!" I giggle to the lady behind the register.
We wait for our drinks at the end of the counter and pick them up when their ready. "Yeah, sorry about knocking you over." He says, walking with me closer to the doors.
"Ah, it happens all the time. It's no big deal." I say and we both laugh.
"Well, it wasn't the best first impression, but it was nice meeting you." He smiles.
"It was nice meeting you too." I smile back. "I hate to just run into eachother and part ways.." I giggle. I reach into my bag for an empty piece of scrap paper or anything really and pull out a pen. I scribble down my number and hand it to him. "There's something I like about you, John." I say with a slight smirk spread across my face.
He smiles back and says, "I guess we have similar feelings." He takes the paper from my hand and stuffs in gentley in his pocket. "I'll call you sometime." He says with a quick wave, as he walks out of the coffee shop and around the corner, out of my sight.
I hear Anya creeping up behind me childishly. I turn around and see her smirking. "What?" I laugh.
She winks at me and says, "If I didn't already have a boyfriend..oh girl." She jokes, as she leads me out of the coffee shop.
Oh Anya.
[A/N] Short, but ok, right? Tell me about it in a review. HAHA, yes I added John Ohhhhhh because I wanted to and I had to choose a guy so I was like, "What the hell, let's pick John."
I hope you guys liked it, cause I worked hard on it.
Ok, it's really late and I'm sitting in bed typing with my eyes slowly closing. I gotta go to sleep now xD
