You walked into Lindsey's house, where the party was supposed to be. If you was to be honest. You expected it to be shit. She seemed to much of a goody two shoes to have a party at her own house.
You stepped into the livingroom, the house filled with people from your school, dancing and drinking.
You were wearing a tight black dress, lace up the sides. You saw Daniel in the corner, drinking and chatting to Nick and Ken...and Lindsey.
You weren't a fan of her.
You sighed a little and reluctantly walked forward, heading to them. Daniel smirked and wrapped his arm around your waist "finally. Took ages as usual." He smirks against your hair, placing a kiss.
You roll your eyes, not able to help the small smile that spread your face. "Shut up. I had to do my makeup- and my hair, and-"
He cut you off with a peck to your lips "yeah yeah, you look beautiful. So it worked" he grins and kisses your lips again.
You smiled and rolled your eyes playfully. Lindsey watched with a moody lip.
Lindsey had planned this whole party just for Daniel, thinking he wanted to take it further with her... despite how obvious yours and his relationship was.
But Lindsey was never told about it...until this point where she realised you two were definitely without a doubt. dating.
You was about to say something to her but she lets out a gasp, looking behind you. The others that were dancing and drinking were now throwing her parents belongings around for fun, almost breaking a vase.
She quickly rushes off to stop them.
Daniel gives an awkward smile to you. "You asked her for the party to be here, didn't you?" You ask him deadpanned.
Daniel gives a sheepish smile "maybe." He says and sips on his drink.
You roll your eyes and shake your head amused "I don't even have anything to say."
Daniel can't help his cheeky smile and puts his empty drink down. "Good. I ain't in trouble then-c'mon" he grins and pulls gently on your arm.
He drags you to the kitchen, getting you and him a bunch of drinks. He knew you was quite a lightweight
so didn't get you anything too strong.
You smiled "thank you babe." You sip your drink and look around, seeing some of your friends.
"No problem..ask me if you want a refill tho. Don't let anyone else do it" Daniel says protectively before letting you walk off to your friends.
You roll your eyes and nod, walking off "yeah yeah-like always."
He smirks lightly, his signature smile. Knowing your used to his protectiveness since he is...a lot.
About an hour or two goes by and...things were well...
Chaotic.
Lindsey was trying her best to stop people from destroying her house and her things. Whilst unfortunately for you...your friends had all left to go with a bunch of guys.
And Daniel was smacked out of his face drunk.
You sighed and watched him, he was yelling as he stood up onto the curtain pole, swinging like a madman.
Nick and Ken were cheering him on. Leaving you to give them stern looks. "Guys what the hell?"
Nick gives a small nervous chuckle "c'mon-it's funny."
You give him an unamused look "you'rere both supposed to help me stop him- not egg him on."
You huff but thankfully Nick and Ken try to help you get Daniel down.
"Babe!- Danny! Get down" you shout over the noise of the people around you who were cheering him on.
Daniel looks down at you and Nick and Ken. His eyes dazed and his damn smirk on his face. He downs his drink and throws it wherever.
"Babe- watch me-" Daniel says as he swings on the curtain pole. You roll your eyes and pull him down carefully "Daniel- you asshole. Get down" you say and he instantly leans on you as you pull him down.
The alcohol catching up with him. The energy dying down. He Leans against you "mh- I was gonna do something totally cool" he mumbled slurred
You roll your eyes and can't help your smile, helping him walk to the kitchen "oh hush..you should be thankful."
Daniel instantly reaches for another beer from the table but you stop him, grabbing his wrist. "No- no more-you can't even walk." You huff
But Daniel's emotions change, the alcohol making his head spin. "Fuck off- I can do what I want."
Nick and Ken's eyes widen as they were watching.
Nick looks to Ken "d-did he just?"
Ken nods "he just said that to y/n." Ken says in disbelief.
But most importantly, you were in disbelief. You stood there and scoffed "what'd you say?"
Daniel slurs his words "I said fuck off. Fuck. Off."
You look at him, growing mad. You knew it was the alcohol but it still hurt.
Daniel gives an asshole smirk "what? Ya gonna cry Go home. You're ruining the party babe." He taunts
You narrow your eyes "no. I'm not gonna cry- and if you didn't want me here you should've said!" You yell and throw your arms about.
Daniel glares and slams his hand down on the counter, snapping "fine! I don't want you here! Go fucking home! To your shitty parents!"
You flinch when he slams his hand down, tears in your eyes but you stop them from falling. burying your emotions down until you get home. "Fine. Fuck you." You say, putting your hard face on and walking off angrily.
Nick and Ken watched with dropped jaws. I mean sure they were used to you two having arguments over stupid things but...Daniel's never snapped at you like that.
You slam the door as you leave the party, walking home on your own, tears slipping but you wipe them away. Not wanting to let his words affect you. Even though you can't believe he said those things. Drunk or not. You was mad.
Nick and Ken go to Daniel, who was leaning against the counter for support, unable to hold himself up.
Ken scoffs a little "what the hell was that man?" He says to Daniel, his voice rising a little.
Daniel grumbles "what?"
Nick scoffs "that!"
Ken nods "yeah- you just literally told y/n to fuck off!-and a bunch of other shit."
Daniel grumbles drunkly, not processing anything they're saying "what? Who?"
Ken rolls his eyes "Jesus Christ."
Nick holds his hand up "dibs not taking him home."
Ken gives him a mad look "what?! That's not fair!"
Nick smirks and shrugs "is too."
Ken huffs and grumbles, reluctantly grabbing Daniel, helping him out to his car outside.
Daniel slurs with half lidded eyes "I hate my life."
Ken rolls his eyes as he sucks in a breath, trying to hold Daniel up and walk him to the car. "Too bad. Mines great" Ken grumbles sarcastically
Ken manages to get Daniel in the car and drive him back to his house. And unfortunately for Ken, Daniel threw up all over his car seats. That he now definitely has to clean once he gets back.
The next day rolls round and Daniel woke up with the most pounding head ache. He groans into his pillow, burying his face into it. Internally dying inside from his hangover.
His mum opens his door “Daniel! Get up for school” she says as she steps in his messy room, seeing him sprawled out on his bed, his face buried in his pillow.
Daniel groans “ma, go away.”
His mum rolls her eyes “you’ve got five minutes. Get up.” She says before shutting his bedroom door.
Daniel let’s put a grumble and groan before reluctantly sitting up, rubbing his hand over his face.
He groans internally as he hears his mum calling to him again “I’m awake ma! Jesus-“ he huffs, his head pounding.
He reluctantly gets up and gets dressed, grabbing his bag and phone before heading off for school. His hair messy and scruffy, he looked awful. Hot, but awful.
Daniel arrived to school, heading to your locker but you weren’t there, he figured you must be running late like usual.
Then he spots ken and Nick by their lockers. He grumbles and walks towards them, already dreading their voices joined with his pounding headache.
Ken smirks lightly “oooh…here comes sunshine.”
Daniel rolls his eyes and groans “shut up.”, he says rubbing his temples.
“not a way to talk to the one who helped you home last night- oh! And cleaning up your sick.” Ken gives with a fake smile
Daniel groans “…sorry dude.”
Ken shrugs and grabs his bag from his locker “nah it’s all good. Yknow. Those hours I spent scrubbing my car seats. It was so fun.” Ken says sarcastically
Daniel gives a small sigh and rubs his temples “i said I’m sorry. Now can ya stop talking- my head killing me.”
Ken rolls his eyes and looks to Nick.
Nick scoffs a little “yeah- well your head will be hurting a lot more when ya talk with y/n.”
Ken nods to Daniel, only remembering now himself.
Daniel tilts his head, his eyes opening instantly at the mention of your name. “What about y/n?”
Nick shared a look with Ken.
Daniel feels uneasy and groans “guys- tell me! Was it something I did-…?” Daniel asks reluctantly
Ken nods and sucks in a breath.
Daniel groans internally and covers his face “what’d I do.” He says mumbled by his hands.
Ken sighs “…ya kinda told her to fuck off.”
Daniel’s hands rip from his face and looks at Ken in shock “I said that-?”
Ken nods and clears his throat “yeah…it gets worse. Ya also told her ‘she ruined the party’ and…oh! ‘To go home back to her shitty parents.’” Ken quoted with a sarcastic smirk.
Daniel’s face falls as he listens to what he did, not remembering any of it or meant to say any of it. He didn’t mean any of it. “Fuck…”
Ken nods and shrugs “sorry dude. You gotta deal with her- I got class”
Daniel huffs and nods, grabbing his phone to text you immediately. Mugging off class, the least of his worries.
He was already concerned because you didn’t show up to school. So you must be upset or very very mad at him right now.
Daniel typed out message after message, deleting and rewriting them, not knowing if it’ll make you more mad or not since he doesn’t even remember what he did or said.
He typed out after a lot of thought a quick and simple ‘I’m coming over to yours. I gotta talk to you in person.” He typed and hits send. Walking out of school and to his car to drive to yours.
He checks the message, he can see you’ve read it but left him on read.
He sighs and taps the steering wheel, speeding up to your house. He quickly parks the car and hops out. Opening your back door which Is always open.
“Babe- y/n-? Where are you” he says as he looks around for you, but then goes quiet as he sees you in your bed, facing the wall. A box of tissues on your bed side table.
“….baby” Daniel says sadly, he felt so bad. He has said this before to you, he’s never felt this way about anyone before..especially not a girl before. He loves you. And he knows it.
He softens and walks to your bed, but stops when he hears your sniffles and quiet voice “g-go away”
Daniel feels his heart actually break. He reaches out to your arm, placing his hand on your arm and sitting on your bed next to you “no…I wanna talk to you.”
You sniffle, wiping your tears and keeping your face to the wall, you was so mad but still upset at him. His words did hurt you.
“I- I don’t wanna talk..” you sniffle out
Daniel sighs softly and rubs your arm “well I do. So scoot over.” He says, trying to lighten the mood a little.
You keep quiet and reluctantly scoot further to the wall, your silence was normal, whenever you and Daniel argued, you would use silent treatment. And God damn did it work.
Daniel sighs softly as he scoots closer to you moving to spook you from behind, his arm wrapping round your waist to your stomach. “baby…please talk to me..c’mon.?” He says quietly to you
You sniffle lightly and keep quiet
Daniel sighs and places soft kisses to your shoulder “m’sorry…I dont even remember what I did..or what I said- but whatever I said- I didn’t mean it- I swear-“ he rambles, somewhat talking to himself as you don’t respond and keep quiet, listening.
Daniel rambles “i love you and would never mean whatever I said, I take it back…i take it all back.”
“and if I’m being honest I think I probably was so drunk I thought you was that bitch Amy from our maths class…god she’s annoying-“ Daniel grumbles making you sniffle a small laugh.
You did know how much he hated Amy.
Daniel smiled wide when he heard you laugh a little “…I can’t help it- yknow I hate her.”
You sniffle a small laugh but then sigh “why would you think I was her?”
Daniel sighs “cus she was at the party, i saw her when I first got there. She had her annoying pink bow on her hair” he grumbles
You grin a little “barrette” you correct him jokingly.
Since Amy would always correct anyone who called it a bow.
Daniel chuckles a groan “whatever it fuckin is.”
You smile a little but still have small sniffles.
Daniel frowns a little and moves your hair from your neck, placing soft kisses “please turn around…”
You reluctantly turn around silently, facing him.
Your eyes were puffy from crying, eyes red and your nose sniffling. He felt so bad.
Daniel softens and cups your face, kiss in your nose “there’s that pretty face.”
You sniffle “I look awful.”
Daniel kisses you forehead “you look beautiful…even when crying.”
Daniel frowns a little “…I am sorry for last night….you know that right?..I didn’t mean any of it?”
You nod a little and snuggle into his chest, him instantly wrapping his arms around you.
“I know…it’s just hard…cus too me you looked like you meant it..”
Daniel nods a little “I know- I know….i’m sorry..I didn’t mean it- I’d never think that about you. You’re amazing and pretty- and I don’t even how I pulled you.” He says with his smile.
“And I don’t know why I said that about your parents? Your dad is the fuckin best.” Daniel grins and you giggle a little. Knowing Daniel did love your dad.
“Mhm…he is amazing.” You nod softly against his chest, shutting your puffy eyes.
Daniel nods and plays with your hair “mhm” he hums
You stay like that for awhile until Daniel speaks up again.
“Yknow I’m sorry though right?”
You smile with shut eyes “yes. I know…now shut up. It’s in the past.”
Daniel nods and quickly shuts up, just playing with your hair and mumbling soft things like “I love you, I love your hair and your smile…”
Eventually you fall asleep on his chest, comfortable and content. But then Daniel gets a message from Ken.
‘She killed u yet?’
Daniel rolls his eyes and texts back
‘shut up…and no.’
