"Humph! Ugh! Agh!"
I swung at another tennis ball, hitting it over the net in the right place.
"All right, let's sit out for a moment," my friend, Meg, suggested, and she threw a bottle of water to me.
I caught it easily, chugging half the bottle.
"You know Zoe," Meg started, sitting down on the bench, "Your hair is going to fade one of these days. And those five-some-odd colors are going to look like shit!"
I gasped, and smacked her arm, "My five colors are just fine thank you very much!"
"Yeah, I bet DANNY thinks that too!" She elongated "Danny", just to piss me off. Danny was my best guy-friend, a VERY GOOD friend.
We hung out all the time, and it was almost as if we were brother and sister.
But lately, his band was touring, and he wasn't around as much.
(Flashback)
I screamed in joy, laughing as he tackled me to the ground, "DANNY!"
"Yes, my pretty?" He smirked and chuckled as he pinned my arms above my head.
"WHY must you be such a guy?"
That was a stupid question...
"Well sweetheart, if you must know..." He paused, "Because I AM a guy!"
His fingers tickled my stomach, and I giggled, squirming beneath him.
He stopped and hovered above me. His face came inches away from mine, as he swept my hair out of my face. And just before his lips connected with mine...
"Oi! Danny! We have to leave for..." Tom paused as he saw the close proximity between, "Oh I didn't mean to interrupt...Do you want me to leave?"
Danny got off of me, "No, no, no! Umm...What were you going to say?"
I pouted as he rolled over next to me, propping himself up on one side, and his arm supporting his head. His eyes found mine as Tom made his way across the yard, explaining the situation. He winked at me and looked back up at Tom.
"Dan, we have to leave in fifteen minutes for the plane. So, let's get ready," Tom smiled down at me next, "Hey babe, what's up?"
"Apparently you!" He laughed at my comment as I stood up, hugging him. Tom was also a great friend and his relationship with me was becoming more sibling like than Danny's.
"Well hon, you better stay clear of this guy here," he pointed towards Danny as he stood up, "He's a vicious person!"
I laughed, "No! He's quite a gentleman Tom!"
Danny smiled at me, "See! Someone OTHER than my mother has called me a gentleman! That must mean something!"
Tom cleared his throat, "Yeah, it must mean that you are a sweet wittle boy that loves his mummy!"
I snickered, hiding my smile from Danny, as Tom returned inside.
He rolled his eyes, and pulled my hand away from my mouth, "I can see you smiling. Even when your mouth isn't in view, your brilliant eyes sparkle when you laugh!"
My cheeks flushed and I looked down at the ground. He chuckled at my shy attitude towards the things he said, and he lifted my chin so he could see my face.
"Come on beautiful," he laced his fingers with mine, "We must head for the airport!"
I laughed, "Only you would be excited about planes!"
He looked back at me, "Yeah Yeah!"
I laughed and followed him to the car.
The drive to the airport was lovely, complete with 'i-spy', funny stories, and wet willies.
And even a belching contest was added in between.
I shook my head at their silliness, "Ah, I love my boys!"
We reached the airport, and as all of the boring routines came to a close, the boys gathered around for their good byes. I was the girl in the group and they knew that I would never forgive them if they didn't say goodbye. These goodbyes, however, were going to last longer than any other trip.
Dougie brought me into his arms first, ruffling my hair, "Take care Ziggy!" Ziggy...
"You two Dougie!" I smiled, and hugged Harry next.
"Don't forget us!" Harry reminded, giving me a tight embrace.
"Me next!" Tom yelled, wrapping his arms around me tightly, "Watch out for guys, they have cooties!"
I laughed, "Especially YOU, Tom!"
He chuckled, "Especially me!"
Next...Danny. He was the hardest to say goodbye to.
His head hung low and a frown on his face said that he didn't want to leave with out me.
I didn't want him to leave either...
He held his arms out, as he smiled once again.
I smiled too, jumping into his arms. I giggled as he twirled me around, finally putting me down to say goodbye.
He embraced me, and whispered, "I'll miss you."
I wanted to cry, "I'll miss you too!" Yeah, Fergie was wrong, even nineteen year old girls cry!
He pulled away slightly, kissing my cheek. He unlaced his arms from around my waist and followed the rest of the gang down the terminal.
I didn't realize that he wouldn't be coming back for some time...and he would never know how much I was going to miss him!
AWWWW! OMG!! *cries*
(me: oh shut-it!)
Go to Results!
I realize it was sort of short, but the next will be better! I PROMISE!
♥ You All!
♥Your Fellow Danny Lover, Stevie! :D
