So I have officially hit thirty subscribers and what a better way to celebrate and giving you chapter 30.
So thank you Tatiana(Phantomdance) x2, Danisnotonfire's Twin Sister, Romanow, and HoneyBunny619 for commenting.
I won't be posting on Thursday. Instead I'm going to do it Monday and then I'm going on a two week break. Right now I feel like I'm putting way too much pressure on myself to just crank out a chapter each week and it's not fun writing like that. I feel like I'm not enjoying writing and I'm not enjoying what I'm writing so for my two week break I'm just going to write to enjoy it.
Seeing as my break is over the last day of the year I just wanted to tell you that I am going to be posting on Christmas. It's going to be a one shot and I will have a compilation story thing which I am making now So make sure to subscribe to that so you don't miss any Damn moments.
Enjoy the chapter.
Chapter 30
I woke up early. Early enough to have enough time to shower before I went to work. The only problem with that is that I don't have to work today. Good job brain. Plus, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't go back to sleep. After fifteen minutes of staring at the ceiling I decided I needed coffee.
I made my way down to the kitchen and started the coffee pot then sat up on the counter. If my mother saw me now, I would be getting yelled at because "butts don't belong on the counter".
I closed my eyes and leaned against the cupboard behind me. The smell of coffee was filling the room and it was so relaxing. Not enough so to make me fall asleep but still. I don't know how long I had my eyes closed but I did know that the coffee had been done for a few minutes.
I felt something brush up against my knee making my eyes spring open. It was Dan trying to get a cup of coffee. He had two cups down and was making it just the way I liked it.
"Hey, I thought you fell asleep making coffee. Here." He said handing me my coffee.
"Nope just relaxing. The smell of coffee does that to me." I said taking the cup and holding it between my hands letting it warm them.
"Really? Because you could have fooled me." said Dan picking up his own coffee.
"Yeah whatever." I said taking a sip of my coffee.
Dan moved so that he was facing me and leaning against my knees.
This was really early for him to be up in the morning. Unless of course he didn't go to bed in the first place.
His hair was a curly mess. Clearly he hadn't straightened it yet. He was also still in his pajamas which consisted of a t-shirt and a pair of sweatpants that happened to be riding down his hips. If he were to raise his arms you would be able to see the skin just above his underwear. No, bad brain. Stop thinking about stuff like that.
I took another sip of my coffee so my mouth would have something to do that didn't involve accidently kissing my best friend.
"Ugh this is way too early for me. I got barely any sleep." said Dan running his fingers thought his mes of hair.
"Well maybe if you went to bed earlier…" I said trailing off and looking down at the sink beside me.
Dan gave me a very serious look that made me want to burst out in laughter but I held it in and just smiled.
Dan put his coffee down beside me and moved closer making my legs spread so he as now against the counter between my legs. He took the coffee from my hands and put it down next to his and then proceeded to tickle my waist.
I fell forward onto Dan shoulder while trying with all of my might to keep my laughter in. I felt like waking Phil this early would not be a very good idea. Just when I was about to give in to the laughter, Dan just wrapped his arms around me. I stayed were I was with my hands on Dan's chest and my forehead on his shoulder.
"You know, if you wanted a hug, all you had to do is asked for one and we wouldn't be in the awkward position we are in now." I said with traces of laughter in my voice.
"Yeah but this was more fun." said Dan.
I picked my head up and sat straight. It took a minute for Dan to let go of my waist but when he did, his hand stayed on my knee.
"So I'm going to be doing lots of boring BBC things today and tomorrow so you should keep me awake." said Dan taking a sip of his coffee.
"And how do you propose I do that?" I asked taking my own coffee cup and bringing it to my mouth.
"Spam me with texts. I don't know. Anything." said Dan with a smirk.
"Okay." I said nodding trying not to laugh.
I scooted forward on the counter like I was going to get down, but it made me closer to Dan. We were level with each other. Eye to eye. The pull was there but I resisted. I looked away and slid off the counter.
"I think I'm going to go a lay down and see if I can't get more sleep." I said dumping my half full coffee in the sink.
I left the kitchen before he could say anything and I made my way to my room. Once there I laid on my bed and stared at my ceiling. I fought my urges to kiss him.
In that moment I was so proud of myself. I felt like I was finally one step closer to stamping out this crush. Or at least going back to how it was before I left for home. As much as I hate to admit it, I really actually wanted to kiss him. I wanted to know what it would feel like, but I wanted my best friend more.
I ended up falling back to sleep but I was awoken by Phil attempting to be sneaky. He is not very sneaky unless it's while secret eating.
"Phil, what are you doing?" I asked too lazy to actually open my eyes.
"Wah! How? Your eyes are closed!" said Phil.
I could tell he was clearly dumbstruck at the fact that I knew he was there.
"Yes Phil, but I have ears that are fully functional. One step in then side step to the left otherwise the floor creaks. That and I was also in that half-awake stage of waking up so I heard the door creak open." I explained.
"Am I ever going to be able to sneak up on you?" Phil asked.
"Nope. Never." I replied simply.
Phil then plopped down on my bed. I scooted over to give him some room to lay down if he wanted. He laid down and let out a sigh. It was the kind of sigh that told you the person sighing wanted something. I tried to ignore it and go back to sleep.
He sighed again. I knew exactly what he wanted but I didn't want to do what he was trying to get me to do.
He sighed for a third time and I couldn't help myself.
"What Phil?" I asked.
He's going to ask for pancakes.
"I'm hungry." He replied.
He totally wants pancakes.
"Well then go eat something." I said turning over and facing away from him.
I was actually hoping you would maybe make pancakes?" he said putting his hand on my shoulder and peaking over at my face.
I called it.
"Ugh, I guess but I'm making you do all of the work." I said.
"Does that mean I get the recipe?" Phil asked.
"Sort of. I'm not going to tell you any secrets. I've been sworn to secrecy and if I tell you, I'd have to kill you." I explained.
Phil seemed too excited to care about not getting the whole recipe. He just wanted the pancakes. In his excitement he grabbed my hand and pulled me down to the kitchen. I honestly didn't care that I wasn't wearing a bra. I was way too tired.
I sat on the same spot of counter that I had previously sat on a few hours earlier and told him all of the ingredients he would need. Except the sugar and Vanilla of course.
I then told him the measurements and the consistency it should be. I quite like being bossy and calling out direction.
"Will you cook them? Please, please, please?" Phil asked giving me his cutest puppy dog eyes.
"Dan's puppy eyes are cuter." I stated sliding off the counter and taking the pan from Phil's hand.
"I don't care." said Phil kissing my cheek and going into a different room.
"Grab my phone would you." I call after him as an after-thought.
I quickly added the secret ingredients and then started in on cooking the pancakes. I had just flipped it when Phil came in handing me my phone and sitting where I was sitting previously.
As soon as one pancake was done and on the plate, Phil started eating in. I took a quick picture of him eating and sent it to Dan.
"Look what you're missing out on." I sent to accompany the picture.
"I really don't like you right now. I'm so hungry." Dan sent back.
I went back to pancake making. I had to keep Phil well supplied.
I don't know how he managed it to eat every single pancake, but he did. I honestly had no clue where he put it all or how he managed not to burn himself. He was eating them as soon as they came out of the pan.
"Okay, so I have one more favor to ask you." said Phil while I cleaned up the mess he made from making the pancake batter.
"Nope, you are all out of questions for the day." I said looking up at him with a smirk.
"Haha your so funny." said Phil. "But seriously, it's just a tiny favor."
"Fine, what is it?" I said with a sigh.
"Will you be my lovely assistant for my video? All you have to do is sit behind the camera and hand me things." said Phil in a rush like I was going to cut him off any second.
"Sure. It just means I don't have to do my hair." I said shrugging. "But can I get dressed first. I'm kind of not wearing a bra and it's starting to feel awkward."
"Okay, TMI but did you just say yes? I thought I was going to have to beg you to help me." said a very shocked Phil.
"Well in that case I don't think I want to help you." I said.
When I saw the look on Phil's face I couldn't help but laugh.
"Phil, of course I'm going to help you. I said I just said I would." I said through yet another laugh at Phil's relieved face.
Phil went off to prepare for the video while I finished picking up the kitchen. When the kitchen was done, I went up stair and got dressed. Once I was finished, I grabbed my dirty laundry.
I hadn't done laundry for almost a whole week. I was starting to run out of clothes. I didn't have to go naked. I think the guys seeing me naked once was plenty of nudity for all three of us.
When I was done I made my way down to Phil's room. I caught him talking to himself.
"So I guess Dan's talking to himself is rubbing off on you." I said plopping down on his bed.
"Talking through my list is a lot different than having a conversation with myself." Phil argued.
"Whatever helps you sleep at night." I said with a smirk.
"Just go sit behind the camera." said Phil after sticking his tongue out at me.
I was tempted just to roll off the bed but Phil was standing on one side and the camera was set up on the other so I just stood and went and sat on the floor behind the camera.
I hadn't been sitting long before Phil handed me a pile of things and started in on his videos.
"So today I'm going to be doing a monthly favorites even though I haven't done one in many months." He said.
I couldn't help but smirk at him.
"My first monthly favorite is a jumper."
That was my que so I tossed the jumper to him. He gave me a look that clearly said "did you really have to throw it at me?", but he wiped the look off his face and held it up and started talking about it.
"Next is this candle." He said.
Once again I tossed the candle to him. He wasn't expecting it and the face he pulled was priceless. I had a mini giggle fit which he was going to have to cut out.
"You should totally do a slow mo of that face. It was priceless." I said in another set of giggles.
He told the camera about the candles and completely ignored me.
"Next on my favorites is these new socks."
I took this moment to chuck then as hard as I could at him. They bounced off his face and landed in his hands.
"I swear-" said Phil but I cut him off.
"No you don't." I said.
He went back to filming. There was a whole big story behind the socks. I took this time to sit right in view of Phil and make faces at him. He cracked a smile a few times but that's what I was aiming for.
"And my last favorite, thankfully it can't be chucked at me, is my lovely assistant, Roomie." He said.
I reached up to wave at the camera.
"Roomie is a favorite because we had a buffy marathon the other day and this morning she made me pancakes. Her pancakes are the best I've ever had. On top of all that, she is one of my best friends. Life in this flat wouldn't ever be the same without her."
I couldn't hold back any longer. I tackled Phil in the tightest hug I could manage while still keeping my face away from the camera. He made a "huh" sound when I collided with him.
"Okay, I guess you can be chucked at me." he said.
I went back to my position on the floor and Phil finished his video.
Once the camera was turned off, Phil turned to me.
"As long as your face isn't showing, can I leave the tackling bit in." he asked.
I nodded.
Filming had lasted all of an hour and when I checked my phone I had three texts from Dan.
"Sam why didn't you text back"
"SAM!"
"SAMANTHA MAE DAVEN! Answer your damn phone!"
I couldn't help but laugh at the last one. At the same time, I really wish he had never found out what my middle name is. I quickly texted him back while Phil took care of the camera and stuff.
"Okay, let's go and spend some quality time with one of our favorite blonds." said Phil when he was done cleaning up.
"Uma Thurman or Sarah Michelle Gellar?" I asked.
"I don't know. Whichever I find first." He said.
We made our way down to the lounge. Of course it was Buffy that we found first. Phil set the couch up with warn fuzzy blankets and lots and lots of pillows. I made popcorn and grabbed drinks. It ended up turning into a Buffy marathon and we only stopped for lunch and a bathroom break.
The marathon lasted until it started to get dark and my stomach growled louder than the T.V.
"Come help me make supper?" said Phil turning off the T.V.
"Okay but just don't make me cook. I'm not so good at not breakfast foods." I said.
Phil just laughed and dragged me to the kitchen.
I need you guys to do me a really big favor. I'm pretty sure I mentioned somewhere in my story when Phil found out that Sam liked Dan. I can't remember and it's really important for the chapter I'm working on. So if someone could find it and leave it in the comments I wold love you forever and ever.
