Dare to Dream Forever

"Sweets, check this out" Darren chuckled beckoning me over to where he was sitting, his laptop rested on the arm of his leather sofa next to him.
I put the last plate away in the cupboard and went and sat beside him, almost instinctively his left arm snaked around me and pulled me into his side. His right hand pointed at the screen.
'Chris Colfer caught in Clinch With Mysterious Guy' was the headline in bold black lettering. My eyes widened as there below it was a photo snapped of Chris at a club, and a very dashing looking Blake attached to his lips.
"I guess they have to admit it now" I smiled slapping Darren's thigh. I knew Chris was very private about his personal life but him and Blake had been sneaking around for months and I knew it had been getting Blake down.
"Yeah, they look cute together" he said clicking onto his emails.
"Not as cute as us" I replied whilst sliding my arm over him and snapping his laptop shut. He turned his head to face me and raised one eyebrow.
"Absolutely, now what do you want all my attention for Miss Jones?"
I pulled his shoulder so we were now facing each other and answered him with a long seductive kiss. I could feel him smiling against my mouth. His hands slipped under the back of my top and stroked small circles at the bottom of my back. He knew this drove me crazy for him and did it quite often when we were out in public, much to my embarrassment. It was a silent communication between us, he would do it whenever he felt a bit horny to tell me he wanted me. Which was half the reason why it turned me on so much.
"I don't want your attention Dare, I NEED it" I breathed wrapping my fingers around his curls.
"We been going out for four months Linz, you'd of thought the honeymoon period would of worn of by now' he said as he kissed my neck.
"Are you complaining?!!l" I cried in a fake shocked voice I pulled back from him with an amused frown. He laughed softly. And raised his hands in defence.
"Not at all....not at all"
"Good, now we can either continue here or take this to the bedroom" I began kissing my way along his jawline approaching that hot spot just behind his ear.
"I don't think we would make it to the bedroom" he whispered as he pushed me down on the sofa....

"Sam, I don't know what I can say that will make this better, but please don't push your friends away, don't push me" I begged as I reached out for his arm, I could see him clench his jaw tight through his cheek.
"She's my sister Grace, and I wasn't there for her" Chord ran a hand through his blonde messy hair and sighed.
"Hey don't do this to yourself, she could of called and if she did, you would of been there in a heartbeat" I rubbed his arm and he turned towards me and leaned down to press his forehead against mine.
"God I love you" Chord's eyes burned into mine, and I couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. Even though me and Chord were back on track now and things were great we had never really dissected what happened in detail and I couldn't help but feel that was a conversation that needed to be had. Even though he and Amy had been officially dating for about a month now.
"I love you too Sam, so much" I replied.
Now I felt worse, the kissing I could deal with, Lord knows we have kissed like a billion times now that Sam and Grace or 'Gram' as the fans call us were now an official item, and even though the first couple of times were very awkward and Darren had felt a bit insecure it had all settled down now. But there was something about saying 'I love you' to another man that just didn't sit right with me, as much as Darren assured me it was fine.
Chord and I kissed, his hand holding the back of my head as his warm lips moved with mine. We pulled apart after a few seconds.
"Now let's go and sing with our friends, we can drop by the hospital later" I took Chord's hand and we walked together out of shot.
"Annnnnnd CUT, that's a wrap for this scene"
Chord frowned at me.
"Seriously, has all effort gone downhill now? I mean, when you first joined it was all breath mints and gum, now it's cheese puffs? You know I hate them" He crinkled up his nose and and scowled playfully at me.
"Hey!!" I punched his arm "I'm sorry I was late on set, you know this and I didn't have a chance to eat breakfast" I explained.
He laughed. "I know, I'm just teasing. Hey want to grab a coffee, I'm meeting Amy?"
"I can't, I have a session in the booth and then I'm spending some quality with Blake. Seriously I have forgotten what he looks like it's been that long. You wouldn't think we were roomies let alone best friends!" I walked with him off set to grab my bag.
"Ask Chris, I'm sure he could fill you in!" Chord suggested, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively. "No worries, another time?"
"For sure"

I walked out of the studio and exhaled happily into the cool air. The sun was setting and the sky had turned into a beautiful swirl of oranges and pinks. I crossed the car park to my car and frowned. Darren's car was parked in the space next to mine and he was stood at the trunk, one hand resting on it. He look dishevelled. With grey slacks on and a huge oversized duffel coat. It was his day off so as I approached him I cocked my head to one side and frowned.
When I got closer I could see he was not happy. He was tapping his foot, he seemed anxious. In the space of a few seconds I was racking my brains, did I say something wrong? Did I leave my brush on the stairs again?
"Dare?"
"Get in my car, I've packed a bag we need to go to the airport now" he said taking one step towards me. His worried look was scaring me.
I shook my head in disbelief
"Dare?" I asked again, my stomach began to churn uneasily.

"It's your dad"
