The Tears

Aubree

Dan's letter, to say the least, brought me to tears.

How was I supposed to forget about my best friend?

How did he know Dan loved me?
As a friend? Or, more than a friend?

Questions littered my mind. About both Dans.

What did Dan (penpal Dan) look like?

What was his voice like?

Did he once cry himself to sleep every night because he'd left his friends to come to London?

Why were we so similar?

My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on my bedroom door.

"Aubree?", my mother's sweet voice called through my white door, "there's someone here to see you".

I stood up from my desk chair and opened my door. Mum's smiling face made me curious. Who could possibly be here to see me?

I walked downstairs, only to be greeted by the one and only, Mrs. Howell.

"M-Mrs. Howell", I stuttered, "what are you doing here?".
"I decided to come visit you and your mother of course. It's been so lonely at the house ever since Dan moved into London and all"

"Dan moved to London?", I asked, gasping slightly.

"Yes, with his friend. Phil, I think his name is"

"Phil Lester?", I asked, my eyes watering slightly.

"Yeah, those two do YouTube together. Very successful, those two are"

"I didn't know he did YouTube", I mumbled.

"Oh his videos are marvelous, let me show you", Mrs. Howell said, holding her hand out for my phone, which I reluctantly handed to her.

I instantly recognised the username she typed in. My eyes protruded from their sockets.

Danisnotonfire

The email. The boy. London.

My head spun, I felt dizzy. My stomach lurched with every minute I watched of the video Mrs. Howell was showing me.

It was Dan. My Dan.
