Chapter One

I never really thought I would enjoy working with kids as much as I do. The kids here love me, I'm not sure why. The girls like my skirts, dresses, sweaters, and the occasional flower crown. Maya Lester is my favourite. She's this adorable little girl, with ginger hair, and bright, blue eyes. I'd say her father is even cuter though. Phil Lester, he has the same striking eyes as his daughter, but he has the blackest hair I've ever seen.

"Dan, Dan!" Maya calls, "Look what I made!" She holds up a cloud made out of cotton balls, with a grin.

"That's great Maya! Is it for your room?" I ask smoothing down my pale pink skirt.

"No I made it for my dad, he loves clouds!" She fluffs up the cloud a bit more. "What time is it?" She asks sticking another cotton ball to the cloud.

I check my rose gold watch, "It's 2:10, so we should start cleaning up." She nods as I walk over to our 'clean-up bell' and rang it. All the kids rushed to put up their projects and supplies.

The other teacher, Zoe, helps line up the kids so they can go outside for their parents. My phone buzzes, notifying me that I got a text. I pull out my iPhone with a floral pink case, and unlock it so I can reply.

Emma the meme: 'yo we still shopping?'

Daniel Meme Howell: 'ye. the kids are lining up to be picked up so go ahead and get ready. ill be at the flat in 20.'

I hit send, then slide my phone back into the waistband of my skirt. The bell rings signalling the children it's time to go outside and wait for their parents. The kids rush out, Zoe and I making sure they don't hurt themselves.

So far there's only two kids left and ten minutes have passed so I ask Zoe if she can handle the rest. "Sure. Alfie isn't expecting me home soon yet anyways." she tells me. I run off down the road to walk to mine and Emma's flat. As I'm walking I pass a familiar ginger and her father. I wave to Maya and smile at her dad. He smiles back. I speed up my pace so I'm not late.

I reach our building and take the lift up. "Ms. Blackery oh how I've missed you!" I open the door with a shout.

"How could you ever leave me Mr. Howell!" She fake sobs, running a brush through her short, now blonde, hair.

"I'm so sorry! I'll never do it again, because I love you!" I say with a dramatic leap towards her. "And scene." I say as we pull apart, laughing, and take mini bows.

"Okay so, I was thinking we could hit Lush, and maybe Forever 21." She says picking up a beanie. "What's the weather like? Should I wear this or not?" she questions, gesturing to the beanie.

"It's a bit cloudy, looks like rain, so I would." She nods pulling it on. I grab my backpack with my stuff in it, and we head out.

We make it to Forever 21 when it starts to rain. "I really should've brought a jacket, now my sweater is going to get wet." I complain, heading towards a rack of skirts. I pick up a nice pastel blue one and hold it out to Emma. "Do you think I'd look good in this?" She nods, and picks up a black ripped sweater.

"I think I'm going to get this." I nod, we pick out a few more items, mine including a pair of light pink, ripped, pair of skinny jeans.

We leave to head to Lush. When we arrive I head straight towards the bath bombs. I pick up a basket. Emma does the same. I pick three bath bombs, two bubble bars, and a body scrub. Emma meets up with me and we head towards the check out.

After paying, we head back to the flat to drop off our purchases. "Hey it's about six, so let's head out for dinner." I suggest.

"Yeah how about some pizza?" She says, I nod my head yes and we leave.

We arrive there about ten minutes later. We sit in a booth and order our drinks. Once they arrive we order our food.

"I swear he has the cutest smile ever." I say fawning about Phil.

"Yes, you've said that. Just remember you'd be a stepdad if you married him" She says, taking a bite of her pizza.

"I wouldn't mind, I take care of children as my job." I state finishing off my final slice. She shrugs and pays for our food.

Once we arrive home we just decide on watching Netflix and eating sweets. After a few hours we both head to bed. I fall asleep around eleven, making sure my alarm is on, and my phone is charging.
