A Perfect Beginning

Chapter 2

The next morning I woke up and rolled over to find I was alone in the bed. I frowned when I saw an empty spot beside me and got up, stumbling into the bathroom. A few minutes later I wondered downstairs to find Danny pouring himself a bowl of cereal and talking on his phone.

"Today? No, I can't. I have a talk show this morning and Tonya just got here so I want to spend some time with her tonight…My girlfriend…yes…no, I told you I want to spend some time with her." I walked in and Danny looked up at me quickly then looked back at his cereal. "Listen I have to go, we'll talk about this later ok…alright, bye." He hung up his phone then turned back to me, a smile on his face.

"Who was that?" I questioned walking over to him.

"Huh, oh, it was just my sister." He said wrapping his arms around me.

"Oh, is everything alright?" I questioned looking up at him.

"Yeah, everything's fine. What are you doing up already?" He asked after giving me a small peck on the lips.

"I didn't feel you beside me in bed, so I came to see where you were."

"Oh, well I was going to let you sleep a little longer before I got you up. We have to be at the studio in an hour so I wanted to get ready first."

"Aw, well that's sweet of you." I leaned my head against his chest smelling his scent. Whatever cologne he wore was great. Every time I smelled it, it just made my heart skip a beat.

"You can go back to bed for a bit if you want." He suggested as I pulled away.

"Nah, I'm up now, there's no point in going back to bed." I pulled out a seat at the table and sat down, Danny sitting across from me. "What kind of cereal do you have?"

"Cheerios." He replied before taking a bite.

"Oh, my favorite." I said happily before getting up to get me a bowl.

After getting something to eat and getting ready, Danny and I headed down to Tom's house to get ready to go to the studio. Dougie and Tom were already outside waiting by the van when we arrived. They greeted us about the same time Gia came running out of the house.

"Hey guys, I wish I could stay and say hi longer, but I'm late for work." She rushed up to me and gave me a big hug. "I'm so glad you're here, I could use some female companions." She giggled as she pulled away. Then she turned to Tom and gave him a quick kiss. "I'll see you all tonight for dinner ok." She said as she rushed to her car.

"Bye Gia, I love you." Tom yelled after her.

"I love you too." She said before hoping into her car and driving off.

"Running late again?" Dougie asked turning to Tom. Tom just rolled his eyes and nodded his head.

"Couldn't find her shoes this morning. I told her they were by the door, but it took her almost twenty minutes to realize I told her that." We all let out little laughs as Harry and Eli came walking up to us. "It's about time you two got here." He looked at Harry and Eli who both still looked tired. "I thought I told you to get some sleep last night." He said shaking his head as he got into the van. Eli and Harry just smiled at him innocently and got into the back of the van.

Twenty minutes later we pulled up outside the studio. A crowd of people had gathered around it and there were camera people everywhere. A few bodyguards came up to the car once Tom pulled up and we got out; Tom handing the keys over to another man who parked the van. As soon as our feet hit the pavement lights flashed as reporters snapped pictures and a mass of girls began to scream. The bodyguards formed a tight circle around us and ushered us inside. Once we were safely inside a woman came up to us and handed us all passes that we were to wear around our necks and then they showed us to the guys' dressing room. A few seconds behind us, three women came in to get the guys ready for the show. They styled their hair and even added some make up to their faces.

"Heh, I didn't even put on that much make-up this morning." I giggled, standing beside Danny. Danny just turned red.

"Oh be quiet, its' so there's no glare or anything." Eli and I still busted out in giggles as yet another person entered the room telling the guys they had two minutes. "If you two ladies follow me, we'll get you out to your seats." Eli and I nodded our heads and turned to follow the man. Danny reached out and grabbed my arm before I left.

"Do I get a kiss?" He asked with puppy dog eyes.

"Are you sure it won't ruin your lipstick?" I teased.

"Ha ha, very funny." He said before leaning down and kissing me on the lips. "I'll see you after the show." Eli and I said goodbye and followed the man out to our seats.

Once we were seated and the show came back from commercial break, Danny and the guys came out onto stage to set up and play a song. The host introduced them before the camera cut to them.

"So, our special guest for the day just so happens to be MCFLY!" Insert loud cheers here. "They're here today to play their newest hit 'No Worries'" The crowed cheered even louder as camera's switched to the guys and the music started up. Danny's voice filled the studio as he sang the words to the song that he had written for me. Only two other people in the room knew who that song really was for besides the guys: Me and Eli. I felt happiness and excitement well up inside me when I heard the words to the song I knew so well. As Danny sang the song he looked up into the crowd in search of me. Once his eyes landed on me he gave a small subtle wink.

Soon the song ended and the program went to another quick break before the interview portion of their appearance. After shaking a few hands of the audience the guys made their way over to the seats and sat down. The music signaling the show was back on and the cameras focused again.

"Welcome back!" The host shouted over the cheers. "So, as you all may know, our special guest today is McFly!" Insert more loud cheers. "They are taking just a little break from their tour to join us here today. So guys, how's the tour going?"

"Great!" The guys all chimed in together.

"I know you finished you're world tour a few months ago. How did that go?"

"Oh it was great. We went so many places, seen so many things and met lots of great people." Tom answered.

"Did any of you have a favorite place?" She asked shooting a small glance at Harry.

"Well Doug seemed to like Australia a lot." Danny said pointing to a quiet Dougie. He rarely ever talked during interviews.

"Oh, Australia. What did you like about Australia Dougie?" She asked beaming at him.

"The Kangaroos." He replied and everyone burst out laughing. After everyone settled down the host spoke again.

"I figured Harry would be the one with a favorite place." Everyone looked at Harry and he turned a bit red. "Maybe America?" She teased.

There were some 'ooh's' throughout the crowd. "Uh, yes actually, America would have to have been my favorite place." Harry said, the blush fading from his face and a smug smile appearing on it.

"Any particular reason why?" The host gave a little knowing look at the camera and looked back at the guys.

"Maybe." Harry was trying to be so sly.

"Maybe because of a girl?" Insert some more 'ooh's'

"Yes actually."

"Ohh, tell us about this girl Harry." Harry readjusted his position in his seat. "She's quite amazing actually." I felt Eli grab onto my arm as she gave out a quiet squeal.

"Amazing? Is there any news you would like to share with us Harry?" The guys all laughed and Danny clapped Harry on the back.

"Um, yes actually." He was turning red again. "I'm getting married. This January."

There were cheers in the audience at this. Some people were a little disappointed, but still cheered for him. "Well congratulations Harry." The host said giving him a hug. He accepted. "I hear that the lucky girl is here today." She said when she pulled away.

"Uh, yeah she is. She's sitting right over there." Eli tensed and grabbed a hold of my hand as the camera's turned to us, and we were posted up on the screen. That was quite embarrassing, and the crowd cheered some more. She turned to me smiling and looking very embarrassed. Finally the camera snapped back to the guys.

"I can't believe they just did that." She whispered to me. I nodded in agreement and turned back to the show.

They went on to talk some more about their tour and their new single. They discussed a lot of band stuff, and some more gossip that was going around about them. Finally after ten minutes the interview was over and so was the show. We stood up and were escorted back to the dressing rooms.

Once we were in the door, Harry immediately went to Eli. "I'm sorry if that really embarrassed you." He said wrapping his arms around her. "I didn't know they were going to do that." Eli told him it was ok and gave him a kiss.

"Well, I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm hungry. How about we go get something to eat?" Dougie said rubbing his stomach.

"All you ever think about is food don't you Doug." I teased wrapping my arm around him.

"Pretty much." He replied and we all laughed.

"Yeah I think some food sounds good." Tom agreed and we all headed out the door. Danny grabbed my hand and we made our way back to the van.

McFly

The boys took us to a nice restaurant that they went to often and didn't have a problem with swarms of fans. Gia joined us on her lunch break already upset and tired. As soon as she sat down at the table, she began complaining about work.

"So when I got in this morning I found out that third shift didn't stock any prep pads or cotton swabs. Then when I had a little girl come in who had cut her hand with a kitchen knife, it took me forever to locate the stuff that I needed to clean her up. Then just as I got her patched up, we got swarmed with patients from a bus accident. I didn't even get my morning coffee." She pouted laying her head on Tom's shoulder. He wrapped his arm around her and pulled her close as we all laughed at the whine in her voice. "I just want to go home, but I still have six hours ahead of me and when I left the ER, the room was full."

"Well when you get home tonight I'll give you a nice back rub and you can just relax." Tom promised and that caused a wide grin to spread across her face.

"I'm holding you to that Fletcher." She leaned in and placed a kiss on his lips, just as our waiter brought our drinks. We gave him our order and he left telling us it would be out soon. We all turned back to one another and continued chatting about one thing or another. Halfway through our conversation Danny's phone ran, interrupting us. He looked at the caller ID and furrowed his eyebrows, then looked back at us a moment later. We all looked at him with questioning eyes. "Uh, my sister." He said shooting us looks. "Excuse me a moment." Then he got up and left the table.

"I wonder what's wrong with Katie." Gia said looking after Danny as he walked to the other side of the room.

"Katie's his sister right?" I asked a little confused, turning to Gia.

"Yeah, his older sister. She's a really sweet girl, but she rarely ever calls Danny. Well not since she got married that is."

"Oh," I replied looking back to Danny. "Well maybe she's having a little problem and just needs to talk to him." I watched Danny as he talked. He didn't look to happy. His eyebrows were narrowed and his body movements made him appear angry.

"Maybe, but whatever it is, it doesn't look too good." I nodded my head and agreed with her then turned my attention back to the table, deciding that watching Danny talk was almost like eavesdropping.

"So Dougie, when do you get to see Asha next?" Dougie's shoulders slumped when I said this and he looked at the table. I immediately felt horrible for bringing it up.

"Not until almost the end of the tour. When I talked to her last night she said that her classes had her piled down with work and she wouldn't be able to get up and see me anytime soon."

"Aw, Doug I'm sorry." I said placing my arm around his shoulders. "At least you have me." I shot him a wide smile and he laughed.

"Yeah, I do have that to look forward too. We have to create some real mischief while on tour, you know that right."

I laughed out loud. "Absolutely! If we don't pull at least one great prank this tour, then I will be very disappointed in us." Dougie and I laughed together.

"Oh no," Harry Chimed in. "I just hope that I'm not on the other end of one of their pranks."

"They can't be that bad, can they?" Gia asked laughing it off and looking from one of us to the other. The guys and Eli tried to hide their looks from her.

"Don't underestimate those two Gia. They're pure evil on the inside." Tom commented pointing at us. Gia turned to us, still trying not to believe us, but we just gave her mischievous smiles.

"Last year when we visited the guys on tour," Eli began. "Dougie and Tonya snuck off while we were at a club and came back early. We just thought they had gone to bed, but no." Harry and Tom exchanged embarrassed glances with Eli and Dougie and I laughed evilly together. "They put shaving cream in between Tom's sheets, placed a bucket of water over Harry's door, and hung all of my bra's out on the balcony. And that was just in one hotel."

Gia shot us both a worried look. "Well it's a good thing I'm not going to be there until the end of the tour." She said trying to assure herself.

"That's when they do the most damage." Eli said, a serious look in her eye. Gia let out a little squeak and we all laughed.

Just then Danny returned to the table and sat back down beside me. He looked at all of our laughing faces and began to look a little worried. "What are you lot laughing at?"

"Oh just your girlfriend and the antics she gets up to while on tour with Dougie." Eli said between laughs.

"Oh yeah, I'm still a little upset with you about the orange food coloring in the shampoo." Danny said with a cute pout on his face. I just laughed at him and grabbed his hand, leaning in to kiss him on the cheek.

"There was food coloring?" Gia exclaimed and we all burst out laughing again, including Danny.

Once we all finally settled down, our waiter brought our food to us and shot us all amused looks before telling us to enjoy our meal and left. While we all dug into our food I leaned over and whispered to Danny. "Is everything ok with your sister?"

"My sister?" He looked back at me a little confused. "Oh yeah, my sister; she's fine. She's just having a bit of a problem with her husband that's all." He looked back at his food and took a bite.

"Oh, ok. Well I hope they work everything out." I said sounding a little concerned for her. Danny grabbed my hand and squeezed lightly.

"Don't worry, she'll be fine." He gave me a wink and we went back to eating our food.

McFly

Later on that night Danny decided that he wanted to take me out to a nice restaurant. I told him he didn't have to and that I would be just fine staying in, but he insisted, saying that he hadn't seen me in a month, and he wanted to do something nice for me. So I let him take me to his favorite restaurant. It just so happened to be another fancy one where Danny ordered us some champagne. Not long after we got there a guy came by the table selling roses. Danny asked the man for two, and after the man left he handed them both to me.

"I know that I missed it, but this is for our two month anniversary. There's one rose for each wonderful month that I got to spend with you, and hopefully there will be a lot more in the future." I felt myself begin to tear up when he said this. He could be such a romantic at times. He was always doing something nice for me; cooking me dinner, writing me a song, buying me roses. I stood up and leaned across the table placing a kiss on his lips.

"I love you Danny Jones." I said, and his eyes twinkled. Every time I said I love you to him, I could almost see his heart swell inside. While we ate our dinner, the conversation turned to my upcoming job. Danny asked me if I had heard anything else about it.

"Well, I haven't really heard much more about it. We went over some paperwork stuff, and they have everything set. The only thing they don't have set for me is a place to live. Normally whenever companies have people moving in from another country, they arrange a living space for them, however, this company isn't so great at doing that. So I was kind of hoping that maybe while I was visiting over here, maybe sometime we could go look for an apartment." I kind of half stated half asked him. He swallowed his food then looked back up at me.

"We could, or…" He left the sentence hang in mid air.

I waited for him to finish his sentence but he just smiled back at me. "Or what Danny?" I finally asked, unable to take him just leaving it there, and giving me that look.

"Ok, now listen to me and hear me out. I know we've only been seeing each other a couple months now, but by the time you move over here, we will have been together about five months." My breath kind of caught in my throat. He wasn't going to say what I thought he was going to say…was he?

"Yeah," I nodded my head, urging him to go on; anticipating what he was going to say next.

"Well, I was just thinking, instead of looking for a new place where you'd have to sign a lease, have last month and the first months rent up front, and worry about getting everything turned on, you could just…well…stay with me."

Oh gosh, he did suggest it. I just stared back at Danny a little shocked. He was right, we had only been together a couple of months, but by the time I move over here, it will have been five months. And it's not like we'd be spending the other two months apart, because really we'd be together for almost the whole month of November and December, give or take just a few days.

As I looked back at Danny he had a mixture of hopefulness and worry on his face. The little grin that he was giving me was just so adorably cute, and I wanted to pinch his cheeks.

"Well," I began placing my fork back down on the table. "It will have been five months, you are right. And five months is kind of a long time, not to mention we will have spend almost four out of those five months with each other almost every day. So, I guess what I'm saying is…yeah, I think that would be a really good idea. I'd really like to stay with you."

Danny smiled widely at me like he had just had a wish come true. "Great!" He said and we went back to eating. Once we were done, music began to play and the people around us made their way up to the dance floor. I watched as couples of many ages got up to dance. There was an older couple that slowly made their way to the floor. The older man took his wife's hand, kissed it gently and pulled her to him. If they both didn't have the looks of older people, you would have thought they were two teenagers out on their very first date.

Danny and I turned to each other, both having been watching the elderly couple dance, and we gave each other warm smiles. Then Danny spoke. "Do you want to dance?" He asked with raised eyebrows. I looked back out at the elderly couple again and saw the woman throw her head back in laughter at something the man say and smiled again. "I'd love to." I replied giving him my hand as he led me out onto the floor. He held one of my hands in his and wrapped his other around my waist as I placed my hand on his shoulder. He pulled me close to him and we began to dance to the slow classical song that was being played. As we danced and talked quietly to one another that night, I still couldn't help but to keep my eye on the elderly couple. They just seemed so happy and so in love after many years of marriage.

'I hope that I have what they have one day.' I thought to myself as Danny and I dance closely together, starring deeply into one another's eyes.
