Before The Worst (Daniel Sharman / completed)

The fine line between friends and something more

Next morning I woke up to see Tyler wasn't next to me, I could smell bacon though so I thought he might be making breakfast. I got up from bed and walked towards the kitchen, he turned around putting two plates on the table "Good morning" he said with a smile. I put my hair behind my ear and let out a sigh. "Is something wrong?" he asked "No" I shaked my head, eating. After we ate he dressed up, I told him some friends were coming over so I'd call him later, he smiled and gave me a soft peck then he took his jacket and left. Oh my the worst part of this all is that I don't feel butterflies, should I be feeling butterflies by now? I mean it's not like I know him that much either...

After a couple of hours Alex and Tomy got to my apartment and we sat to talk. I told them everything that has happened and they both had things to say.

-Im sorry but I'm team Tyler all the way! -Alex said smiling.

-Uh-uh Im team Daniel -Tomy said.

-What? -I said laughing.

-Tyler is so nice and he's such a gentleman and he treats you right and he invites you and he's good in bed. A lot of pros -Alex said.

-But Daniel is a gentleman too, we don't know how he is in bed but he's older... meaning he must be way better, also he's hotter I mean who can't deny those blue eyes? -Tomy said.

-Shut up -I said blushing.

-Daniel has a girlfriend, enough said! -Alex said.

-But that's because he's seeing how things go, let me put it this way because trust me I know boys -he laughed- Daniel still has feelings for his girlfriend that's why he hasn't broke up with her but then you appeared in his life and he has attraction for you too, since he doesn't know you he's seeing how things go because he wouldn't like to leave his girlfriend and then end up all alone, especially because he does have feelings for her yet -Tomy said.

-But Tyler is single and he doesn't need to prove anything, if he has feelings for you he goes straight to the point and there's no teasing -Alex said.

-But teasing is good, which one you know better? -Tomy asked wondering.

-None -I said letting out a sigh.

-But I bet there are more things you know about Daniel than Tyler -he said.

I took a moment to think, he might be right but still... I couldn't just tell Tyler things were going the wrong way, I deserve to give it a shot and he does too... I haven't felt this way in ages and he does treats me right but... does he deserve me? What if it doesn't work out? I'll just hurt him and I don't want that... the problem here is me not them. Them? What am I saying, Daniel must be out of the picture already, HE HAS A GIRLFRIEND! Okay Steph get it together.

-Steph? -Tomy said after a while.

-Sorry uh... yeah you guys are both right to be honest -I said letting out a sigh.

The next monday I went to work as usual, I was outside still reading my book and eating a banana when someone interrupted me (how unusual) "That's a good book" I looked up and saw those piercing blue eyes looking at me, smiling. "It is" I nodded as he lend me another book "Here you'll like this one" Daniel said as I took the book looking at him. "Is this yours?" I asked checking the book "Yeah so I want it back" he laughed. I smiled and thanked him when Tyler popped out of nowhere "Reading again?" he said as I nodded "What's that?" he asked seeing I had another book in my hand "Oh Daniel lend me this one" I smiled "You read too Daniel?" Tyler asked wondering "Sometimes, Im not a book eater but I enjoy books" he laughed "Cool..." Tyler reluctanly said.

A few hours later, when the day was almost over I was gathering my stuff to go back home when Posey popped out of nowhere again and smiled "Hey Steph wanna go bowling with us?!" he said excited as I looked at him about to say no.
