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".

the mafia’s son

----------------------

prompt: you joined a mob. the boss asks you to prove your loyalty by killing your girlfriend. failure to prove your loyalty will result in your loved ones dying. you look around the room at all the pictures and notice, you’re dating the daughter of the mafia boss.

(i’m doing my own take on this prompt)

“sit down”. i followed the order, nows not the time to be my dumbass self and get myself killed.

i’ve been trying to join this mob since i was sixteen, now, im nineteen and i finally get the chance. i’ve had my eye on this group for years, the boss, john, found me when i was young and said that one day i could join and well. i know it’s not the best thing for me to be in, i’m not stupid. but, when you lost all your family years ago because they won’t except you for who you are? you’re willing to be part of any group, anything to feel included. i knew i should have kept it to myself, but coming home late each night with hickies scattering my neck and being “too close” to that boy my for family’s liking; i was bound to come out at some point, and my family had no liking of that.

i quite liked my boyfriend, few inches shorter than me, brown eyes, brown hair, dresses different than most boys but i never complain. i love it actually, he’s adorable and just the sweetest. why he’s with me? i don’t even have an answer because i question it too. he has no idea what i’m doing today and i don’t need him finding out anytime soon.

“philip”. i perked up at the use of my full name, which hasn’t been used since before my mother disowned me.

“you’re in, tell another living soul and i’ll personally kill you”.

“understood, mouth shut, thank you sir-boss, sorry”.

“not so fast lester, you’ve got to prove that you really want to be apart of this group”.

i gulped.

“and h-how do i do that?”.

“well it’s your choice, you’re families lives-”.

“i don’t have a family anymore, i haven’t talked to them in years, i don’t even know where they are”.

“don’t try to save them, son”.

“no, i’m uh, i’m serous, they disowned me years ago”, i looked down avoiding eye contact. i really didn’t wanna spill this right now but.

“and whys that?”. he crossed his arms across his chest and leaned on the wall.

“well, they uh, they found out i was gay”. i whispered the last part.

“well, then it’s settled, if you don’t have a family anymore like you say, then your boyfriend it is”.

“excuse me?”, i asked, not even sure if i was understanding correctly.

“prove your loyalty, you can’t kill you family if you don’t know where they are, so your little boyfriend will have die”.

“please, there has to be another way, any other way, please. he’s all i have”. i didn’t want to cry in front of this man but i was getting close to.

“come, follow, my office”. i follow behind, slowly, just to register what he had just told me.

“now lets see, i-father!”.

he was interrupted by who i presume was his son entering his office.

“father, can i-”. i turned around to look at him and widened my eyes when i saw who it was,

daniel?

“philly, why are you here?”, he said glancing between me and his father.

“i could ask you the same”, i choked out.

“what’s going on here, how do you two know each other?”.

i glanced around the office, and noticed the few pictures of dan around the room.

“i, uh, this is gonna be ten times worse”, i mumbled.

“father? why is phil here?”, dan stepped forward to behind me, placing his hand on my shoulder and running his finger over the marks on my neck, from him.

“right now, tell me what’s going on!”, he was starting to get angry, and i didn’t think he’d like it that he was making me kill his son.

“sir, i don’t think i can join your group”.

“and why the hell not? you’re pushing it lester, really you don’t wanna test me”.

“because, id have to kill your son then”.

dan’s eyes widened and he glanced at his father before down at me, tears forming in his eyes.

“no, no, danny, don’t cry. c'mere”, i gently grabbed his arm but he pulled away, turning and running out of the room.

i wanted to go after him but i wasn’t sure how john would take that.

“fucking go after him! i have to fucking figure this out now!”. i quickly got up and left the room, too scared for his further actions.

“danny, baby, where are you?”, i glanced around the room i saw him go in. i heard muffled sobbing coming from around the corner.

“baby, it’s me”.

“don’t hurt me. g-go away”.

i ignored his words, knowing that he didn’t mean them and was just scared which meant he did actually need me.

i sat down next to him.

“why didn’t you tell me?”, he asked sniffling and finally looking at me.

“because i didn’t want you to freak out, but why didn’t you ever tell me what your dad did?”.

“because i’m already a part of it! i mean not directly, but i’m still involved! i’m his son, and now you’re gonna have to kill me”.

“danny, i’m not gonna kill you, i would never, nothing means as much to me as you do”.

“b-but”.

“baby boy, shh, c'mere”, i pulled him into my lap so i could calm him down. i wrapped my arms around him and he buried his face in my neck.

“shh, baby, you gotta calm down, okay? deep breathes. look at me”. he sat up, rubbing his eyes with his sleeves.

“deep breathes”.

he did as told and slowly calmed down but i knew he was still thinking about it.

“danny, i love you, you know that”.

“i-i love you too”.

we sat for a few more minutes before i eventually suggested we go back to his father. before we walked into his office, i leaned down a kissed him.

we walked back inside slowly where his father was sat at his desk.

“sit”, he instructed, i did.

“dan, you too”, he pointed to the chair beside me.

“father”, dan whispered, “are you gonna make

phil kill me?”.

john took a deep breath before answering, “no daniel, you’re my only son, i’m not gonna make him kill you. i am mad that you didn’t tell me you were dating someone, but i’ll let it go, there’s bigger issues to adress”.

he turned his attention to me.

“what are we gonna do philip?”.

“i-”.

“can’t kill your family, can’t kill your boyfriend because he’s my son, looks like you’re just gonna have to prove your loyalty another way”.

“a-and how would that be?”.

“since you’re dating my son, i’ll make sure that you never let him get hurt, and if you do? i’ll personally kill you”.

“i haven’t let him get hurt yet, and i don’t plan to ever let him sir”.

“then we have ourselves a deal lester”, he extended his hand over his desk, to which i shook it.

“dismissed”.

i walked out of his office, i could sense dan trailing behind me.

as i turned around the corner towards the front door, dan ran up and grabbed my jacket.

“what have you gotten yourself into”, he said.

“i’m not exactly sure”.

“my dad will actually kill you if something happens to me, you realize that right?”.

“yeah, but you haven’t gotten hurt yet, am i right?”. he shook his head.

“well”, i wrapped my arm around his waist, “you don’t ever have to worry about getting hurt, because i’ll never let you”.

"be yourself. don't worry about what other people are thinking of you, because they're probably feeling the same kind of scared, horrible feelings that everyone does."
