The thing Phil hated most about himself is that he didn't do anything.
He had stood and watched, horrified as Dan raised the pill to his lips. He had looked on as Dan sank to the ground afterwords. He had just stood there as Dan took his own life in front of him. And he hated it. Now, as Dan's eyelids were fluttering sporadically he rushed over to him. Phil's world crumbled around him as Dan's lips formed the words, "I love you, Phil." for the first and last time.
"I love you, too, Dan! Please don't leave me!" Phil whimpered in desperation. Although Phil was sobbing uncontrollably, Dan only had a few tears leaking from his eyes, and he was smiling.
"It hurts, Phil." Dan said, but not in complaint, just matter-of-factly.
"Dan! Dan, please no!" Phil cried pathetically. "Phil... Phil, sing me a song..." Dan whispered hoarsely to Phil. "It hurts."
Phil thought only about his best friend, his love, resting his dying head in his lap as he sang the first three tines of, You Are My Sunshine, before Dan's eyes fluttered closed and his breathing stopped. Phil's body was racked with sobs. "So please don't take... my sunshine... away."
Phil's heart stopped three minutes later.
