You're something different D.S •short Story

Narrator's Pov

Daniel and Cheryl were at McDonald's having a little chat.

"Tell me more about yourself" Daniel asks.

"I'm 17 I love basic shit and I'm in love with my dogs Percy and Athene they're still in the U.K..
My favourite artist is logic but I like Shawn Mendes.
I told you i have a older brother and a twin"

"No you didn't tell me that you have a twin" he says shocked.
"There's nothing to tell you she's perfect I'm not"

Daniel chuckles and shakes his head.
He takes a sip from his coke.

"Define perfect?" he asks taking a bite from his big Mac.

"Obeys my parent's rules, studies everyday, knows what she wants for herself and has a handsome boyfriend I almost forgot she's school president and a huge show off but she's really beautiful and manipulative" Cheryl takes a sip from her water .

"Do you want to know my definition of perfect?" he asks

Cheryl chews on her burger and gives him a sign go carry on.

"Perfect is when you're different and not how everyone wants you to be.
Like you , you're different than all the other girls and it's not just your british accent" he grabs his cup of coke and takes her hand.

"Where are we going Dani?" she asks intertwining their hands.

"You'll see" they exit the fast food restaurant and walk in the direction of the river.

It was dark already the only bright things were the stars illuminating the sky.

Daniel's phone was vibrating signaling him that the boys are already at his place.

They walk up a little hill that had the most different types of flowers growning on it.

"Jump on my back" Daniel demands.
Cheryl nods and obeys him.
He walks down the hill and stops minutes later.

They had reached their destination.
Daniel brought her to a lake that the stars reflected.

"You're the first person I've brought here" Daniel confesses.

"Wow I must be special then" she smiles.

"You are" he says looking at the lake.

Cheryl holds Daniel tighter and placed a kiss on his cheek.

"Do you think we would get in trouble if someone saw us playing in the water?" she asks

"No why" he asks but before he could look back at Cheryl she hopped off his back and took off her shirt leaving her in her sports bra.

She takes off her skirt and jumps into the cold water.
"What are you waiting for Daniel the water's nice" she tempts.

Daniel hesitated for a second but eventually he takes off his pants and shirt.

"The water is cold"

"Act like a man you idiot" she screams swimming over to him.

"Here you need this"

Cheryl dives under water dragging Daniel's leg making him fall.
Seconds later he jumps up looking at Cheryl.

"You'll get that back i swear on Jack's curly hair that reminds me of those curly fries we bought at McDonalds today."

He turns to Cheryl who was swimming for her life.

"Come back" he yells swimming.

He wraps his arms around her waist and pushes her into the water.
Cheryl screams and laughs forgetting to breath.

When she was about to push him back Daniel pulls her body closer to him.
They look into each other's eyes getting lost in them.
Daniel leans in and Cheryl copies his actions.

"Hey get out of the water now" a man screams from far.
They break their eye contact and look at the man standing by the fence.

"Bob it's me" Daniel screams at his good but much older friend.

"Oh sorry Daniel I thought you were forget it I'm sorry" he yells.

Cheryl laughs in embarrassment while Daniel blushes.

"Come let's go big boy" she says walking out of the water.

She puts her clothes on and waits for Daniel to out his clothes on.
As he does so he hands Cheryl his sweatshirt.

She puts it on taking in his cologne scent by hugging herself.
Daniel takes her hand and walks home with her.

On their way the don't talk but enjoy the quiet atmosphere.
Lost in their thoughts they don't notice that they've reached the house already.

Two steps in front of the front door they look at each other.
"I'm still wet" Cheryl says.

"You're wet?" Daniel asks smirking.

"Daniel" she calls out wrapping her hands around his neck.
He looks into her eyes leaning in until they hear a dog bark.

Cheryl opens the door hearing a familiar barking noise.
She walks in being welcomed by her husky.

"Hey baby" she pets athene in love.
Daniel closes the door and stares at her.

She carries her puppy into the living room looking for the other one but instead she finds something else.

Daniel carries the other puppy in his arms wanting to give it to Cheryl but stops in his tracks.

"What are you people doing here" she asks in disgust.

"Is that how you greet your family in America?"
