"So where exactly are we going?" I ask as Dan drags me around town by the wrist.

He looks back to smile at me. "Only the best milkshake place ever!" I shake my head and laugh. "Whatever you say Howell."

It has been nearly a week since I let Dan have another chance at winning me over (as a friend, that is) and it has been going pretty well for both of us.

We both like the same food, colours, some of the same songs and he even convinced me to make a YouTube channel. That dude is persuasive.

We stop outside a small cafe like shop. "Shakeaway?" Dan nods gleefully. And opens the door for me to enter.

We stand in line and look at the different flavours. "What do you want?" Dan asks and points to the boards above the people at the cash register.

"Um. I think I will be boring. Just a Vinilla Milkshake for me please." Dan groans. "Come on Amy. You have to be more adventurous." I shake my head.

"No thanks Howell. Happy being boring." He nudges me playfully and walks towards the person at the counter and orders for us both.

"What are you getting?" I ask. "Well. Since you are being boring I thought I would be too." He smiles. "I'm having Chocolate which is still more interesting than stupid old Vinilla."

I slap him gently and he pretends to grab it and pouts like a puppy. "Oh stop being a baby Dan!" He laughs and we sit in a booth.

"So. Amy." I look straight in his eyes. "So. Dan." I answer mockingly.

"I feel like I don't know enough about you." I smile. I know exactly what to do.

"Twenty questions?" Dan's face lights up. "Hells yea!"

"Okay then. Um. Birthday?" Dan sighs dramaticly.

"How have tou already forgot?"

"I'm a forgetfull person don't judge me!" He laughs.

"June Eleventh. You?"

"No who is the forgetfull one?"

"YOU NEVER TOLD ME!"

"Whatever. Anyway. September Twenty Second."

We carry on asking questions until we have both asked seventeen when our shakes come and I take a sip and hum in joy.

"Told you it was good didn't I?" Dan smirks at me in that funny kinda hot way. "Good? Its amazing!"

It takes me just less than ten minutes to gulp down the entire shake and Dan laughs at my glee of the new experience. "Guess you like their Vinilla Milkshakes then?" I nod and try to slurp out the final few drops of the drink sitting at the bottom of the cup.

We make our way back home and Dan seems happy with the progress we have made. "Today was fun." I look at him and nod. He is right. I havn't had this much fun in quite a while.

"Yea. It was." He looks into my eyes. All I can focus on are his deep brown ones. The way they sparkle when he is happy. "Do. Do you wanna do it again sometime? Maybe Phil could come."

I smile. I think we are both getting the hang of this friendship thing. "Sure. I wanna know how interesting he is when it comes to Milkshake flavours." Dan laughs.

"Bet I'm crazier than him."

"Sure Mister Chocolate Milkshake."

"I only ordered that because you were being boring."

"Whatever Howell. Phil is more of a man than you could ever be." I smirk. He gasps dramatically.

"You didn't." I put my hands on my hips.

"Oh yes I did. All you ever do at home is sit around on the internet."

"I have internet friends." He pouts. I laugh and hit him playfully.

"Oh you're asking for it now Cartrite!" He grabs my sides and tickles me vigourusly.

"DANSTOPHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAPLEASEDANHAHAHHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAOWTHATHAHAHHAHAHAHAHADANITHURTSHAHAHHAHAHSTOP!!!" Finally he stops and I breath heavily to catch my breath back.

"I guess I have found your weakness then?" Dan smiles and begins running.

"Oh you're in for it now Howell!" I chase him to the apartement where he gets in the lift and it is going up before I get the chance to go in. Great. Now I am going to have to take the fucking stairs.

I start running and before I am even half way up I am out of breath. "Screw. You. HOWELL!" I run again until I am finally at the top where the apartement door is open.

He beat me to it. I walk into the flat and hear Dan talking to Phil. "Phil. Help me hide. Amy is after me. Not sure what she is gonna do but I'm guessing it's bad." Typical over dramatic Dan.

I sprint into the kitchen and jump on top of the first person I see. Sadly wasn't my target.

"Amy WHAT THE FU- GET OFF ME!" I quickly jump off Phil's back, apologise and realise Dan had hidden somewhere.

I go into the living room and hear a bit of sniggering behind the sofa. I climb on the sofa and practically mount him like a jockey on his steed.

Dan screams in surprise and stands up, me still on his back. I start pulling at clumps of his hair.

"This. Is. What. You. Get. HOWELL!" He attempts to grab my hands and then lies down on the sofa which, in his favour, made me fall off.

"Remind me never to tickle you again." Dan rubs his head where I had been pulling at his hair and I smile.

"Guess I taught you a lesson."
