awkward
------------------------
based on the prompt:
"you know she has a crush on your right?"
"man i hope so or else this is gonna get really awkward"
"she fucking told my boyfriend i liked him"
(dan's pov)
i never understood why jessica was always so "out to get me". always there when something embarrassing happened, and ready to tell everyone and anyone at the given. phil never believed me that she hated me, always telling me that i'm "letting her get to my head".
the first time it happened was at the beginning of the year:
we were outside at lunch, well, louise, zoe and i were. phil had to take a test and alfie and matt were talking to their coach.
"louise! zoe! look at my new shoes!".
i had just gotten white, converse, after months of having dirty brown ones, ruined by multiple gym classes. i was certain to make sure i never wore my new ones in gym, in fear of ruining them too.
"finally dan, it's been what? six months since you started complaining?", louise said as we took our seat on the bench.
"yeah, i'm surprised you didn't ask phil buy you new ones months ago", zoe said laughing.
"hey! you both knew i wanted to earn these myself!".
"you could've gotten them months ago if you didn't go and buy new clothes each time you got paid". zoe rolled her eyes as she took another bite of her apple.
"okay, but tell me my outfit isn't on point today", i said standing up and twirling, only to see her standing behind me.
"new shoes danny?", she said glancing down.
"i, no, just the same old shoes".
"they're pretty, nice and clean".
she twisted the tip of her shoe in the mud and dirt, before kicking it onto my shoes, covering it in dirt and grime.
"bye danny!", she waved her hand, twirled on her heel, and walked away.
"i'm gonna kill her", i muttered, squatting down and trying to get it off, much to no use.
and it's been like that, constantly ruining my day, since that moment. and phil had never seen it. until now:
phil and i were talking at his locker after the last bell had hung on friday.
"movies tonight?", i asked, playing with the decal on the sleeve of his jacket.
"can we do movies at your house? i'm tired and i don't wanna fall asleep at a theatre".
"like last time?", i said laughing.
"i told you i was tired!".
"well, you still let-".
"oh hey danny". i took a deep breath, spinning around to face the one person i wished didn't call me that.
"hey jessica".
"hey phil!", she said in her sweet little voice.
"hi?".
"well, i just wanted to say hello, and oh phil? you know he has a huge crush on you right?", she smirked at me before laughing and starting to turn away. i just covered my face with my hand.
"well gee, i hope so or else this is gonna get real awkward", he grabbed my arm and pulled me to his chest.
"but i-!-you-!", she groaned before stomping and turning away.
"now do you believe me?", i groaned, wrapping my arms around him.
"yeah, she's a real bitch, let's go watch movies before i kill her".
