Best Mistake I Ever Made

Part 13

"Fine I'll go over now" Danny replied starting to walk over to table 24.
"Awh Dan you got the creeper" Shane laughed passing her with his notepad.
"Shut up" she giggled giving him a small push.
She carried on walking fixing her apron and flipping her notepad to another page.
Suddenly something knocked into her.
"Shit!" they cursed as Danny hit the ground.
"Ow" Danny grunted before they tried helping her up.
"I'm really sorry, I was walking to get a waitress but I walked into you" they laughed.
Danny frowned to herself recognising their voice.
"It's fine don't-" she said before seeing them.
"Danny?" they asked.
"Hi Max" she mumbled.
"You work here?" he asked.
"Yeah, what are you doing here?" she asked seriously.
"We recently moved"
"Is he here?" she asked scared.
"Yeah" he said looking over to the table.
Danny followed his eyes before seeing Tom Siva and the back of Nathan's huddy.
"I'll get you a waitress" Dan said trying to get away.
"Dan stop" Max said pulling her arm.
"You need to see him" he pleaded.
"No! I'm not going back to that life or him" she said angrily.
"All I'm asking is for a "move on"or something! he's in bits now Dan because you're gone" Max said letting her go.
Danny sighed heavily before going back to the bar.
"Can you cover table 24?" she asked Shane.
"Nooo wayy Dan you're not doing karaoke so you get the creepy table" he laughed.
"I'm serious please" she begged.
"No Dan man up and do it" he said shooing her off.
Dan copped herself on before trying to walk but shaking opening her notepad again. When she got there, they all stared up at her except for Nathan.
"Eyyy" Tom smiled.
"Right I'm having a pint of larger and Max is getting a Heineken and Seev just wants an apple juice" he said before Danny started writing stuff down.
"Nath what are you having?" Tom asked.
Danny stared hoping to see his face again. But he didn't move.
"Pint" he mumbled.
Danny missed his voice but it sounded so sad and depressed.
"Come in Nath a pint of what? Say it to the nice waitress" Tom giggled earning a scowl from Danny.
"Can I have a pint of larger pl-" he said looking up at her. Their eyes connected making Nathan so shocked she was here. His Danny was here.
She looked amazing but somehow scared.
"You know what? how about we go to the bar and you two can have a chat" Tom smiled getting up.
"I-I can't I'm working" she stuttered.
"No no no stop that" Max said gesturing her into the seat.
Danny sat down awkwardly playing with her hands.
"What are you doing here?" she asked slowly looking up at him.
"We moved for business" he replied going to reach for her hands.
"No" she shot back pulling them away.
"You never let me explain" he agrued.
"Because you didn't need to I know everything!" she said loudly.
"So you know about Jess?" he asked.
"Yes! You're fucking girlfriend" Danny mumbled.
Nathan smirked and let out a chuckle.
"What?" she asked.
"This is Jessica" he said showing Danny a picture if her.
"She's my sister" he replied.
"What?"she asked shocked.
He nodded making her bury he face in her hands.
"So what about you going to kill me to get back at Dylan?" she asked.
"Why would I want to kill someone I love?" he mumbled looking deep into Danny's eyes.
"Don't say that" Danny said getting up leaving the table.
"Dan please" he said rushing after her.
He followed her until they both reached the alleyway outside the building.
"Dan wait" Nathan shouted pushing her against the wall.
"Why would you say that?" she said starting to cry.
"Why wouldn't I?" he breathed.
"Because ever since I met you everything just got messed up!" she shouted in his face.
"Please just go back inside or leave" she said making him sigh and go in.
Danny burst into tears feeling all the emotions she once had come rushing back to her.
She breathed out wiping her cheeks and eyes before going back inside. She headed back to the bar before getting back into the routine.
"Okay next up is Nathan Sykes" Shane said into the mic making Danny's eyes dart up seeing Nathan step onto the stage.
"Em, I'll be singing All I Want. This goes out to a girl I love and I hope she's listening" he said looking straight at her.
And then he started to sing.
All I want is nothing more,
To hear you knocking at my door,
Cause if I could see your face once more,
I could die a happy man I'm sure,
And when you said your last goodbye,
I died a little bit inside,
I lay in tears in bed all night,
Alone without you by my side.
But if you loved me,
Why'd you leave me?
Take my body,
Take my body,
All I want is,
And all I need is,
To find somebody,
I'll find somebody.
He sang looking straight at Danny making her shiver at how serious he was about this.
"Danny please just give me a chance" he said making all the staff look at her.
Danny put down the cloth she was using and ran out running home to her small apartment. She slammed the door locking it shut before going into her bedroom and sitting on her bed. She picked up a picture of her mum and kissed it before going into the bathroom.
She stripped down and got into the bath filling it with warm water. She picked up the blades beside her and looked up to heaven.
"I'm so sorry mum"
