Dan had always hated the timer on his wrist. He wanted to decide who the most important person in his life was. Not a load of numbers. Although he hated them, he had started getting excited about seeing exactly 2 years etched onto his skin. He scowled and scolded himself for thinking this but quickly glanced down at the timer again.

He sighed.
"17 years old and he's still waiting for his person." He says out loud to no one in particular. Most of his classmates had already found theirs, whether it being in the form of a best friend, boy/girlfriend or family member. Not him though. He got teased for having to wait although, in his mind, he teased right back. He teased them because once they had found their person; they felt obliged to stay with them. He could see the strains in most of their relationships and he silently mocked them as that would never be him. He would never feel like he had to keep a friendship/relationship going with a person because his wrist told him too. He's not that kind of person. And come to think of it, taking an order from your wrist does sound mental. He glanced back down at the numbers.

"UURGH!" He practically yelled and shook his wrist, willing time to go faster. No such luck. He stood up and pulled on his trainers and coat.
"Where are you going?" His Mum asked as he stormed towards the front door.
"Out." He says flatly.
"No you're not. It's freezing out there!" He hesitated while in the middle of turning the door handle. Usually he would obey his Mum. He didn't want to say no but she just didn't understand. She had already found her person. Making up his mind, he turned the door handle the rest of the way and walked out into the icy cold darkness.

His feet pattered against the ground and his breath came out in little puffs. When he was younger he used to think that the cold created something called 'dragon breath' and when he was fully grown, he would be able to breath fire. He smiled as he realised that secretly, he still did believe this slightly.
Just as he was thinking about YouTube and what it would be like to make videos, he felt a burning sensation on his wrist. His knees collapsed underneath him from the pain and when he opened his eyes, he was lying on the ground, clutching his wrist in agony. He glanced at the numbers which were a blood red colour.

Dan stared at the timer on his wrist in disbelief. Had it just… jumped forwards? Can the numbers even do this? Or had he actually travelled forward in time? He went for the first suggestion. The timer had returned to its original colour and was now ticking away as if nothing had happened. He continued staring at the numbers before turning on his heel and running straight back towards his house.

"MUM!" He yelled, bursting through the door.
"What?!" She yelled back, running in from the living room, obviously thinking he had been hurt in some way.
"The… Numbers…" Said Dan panting. "They've jumped forwards…" His Mum slowly moved towards him and took his wrist in her hand. She examined the timer and looked back up at Dan.
"It looks like your person is closer than you think." She said smiling at him, before bustling him into bed. He lay there thinking all night, absent-mindedly rubbing his wrist.
They moved. They physically moved closer to the number he desperately wanted to be shown etched onto his skin, as much as he denied it. Maybe his wish had come true after all. Dark thoughts began to enter Dan's mind after this though.
What if they don't like me? What if I don't like them? What if we don't have anything in common? If the numbers can move forwards, can they move backwards? Oh god, what if we never meet? What if I'm stuck never meeting this person because we keep moving around? That settles it then, I'm never moving from this bed again. Don't be so stupid Dan; you can't never leave your bed. You've got to pee sometime. Right, I'll install a toilet in the bed. Ew gross! I'll wear nappies? Even grosser! Urgh. I give up.
Dan stopped having an internal war with himself and grabbed his laptop. He clicked onto YouTube and noticed that a new video had been put up by his favourite YouTuber, Amazingphil. He clicked on it and began to watch.
"Hi guys!-" Dan ignored the rest of the video, he kept wondering if he could ever do that. 'Vlog'. No, he would never have the confidence. He decided quickly before falling into an uneasy sleep full off numbers, a person with no face and a bed with a toilet in it. Overall, Dan had a pretty shit night.

Aw, poor Dannykins! I started to get bored with waiting so long though so I made it jump forwards! Muhaha! Don't worry; the pair will be together soon. Guarantee.
