Phil's POV:
I watched Dan from across the room, he was editing a video. He had already been distracted from editing numerous times, which may or may not be my fault. Surprisingly I was living the dream, even if it was a secret. It had been a month since we had gotten back together, no-one knew still – but I decided that having Dan in secret was better than not having him at all.
I was ready to scream it to the world, I didn't care who knew. I was even excited to tell the phans, I knew for a fact they'd react well. It was hard keeping it a secret, I was like an excited child on Christmas eve. We rarely got through a live show without talking about it, it was difficult to keep a stupid, goofy, in love smile off my face – so I tried to avoid addressing the issue.
After Dan and I got back, I made it clear to Molly that we shouldn't talk any more. She's a nice girl, but being friends with her wasn't worth jeopardising my relationship with Dan. I deleted her number off my phone and never looked back.
Vid-con was in two weeks, we decided on telling the phans after that in order to avoid the phan-girls being extra crazy. And before that, we were heading down to Manchester and Reading to tell our parents. I could tell Dan was nervous about that, not that he'd admit it, I was kind of nervous about it too. But I knew my family would be fine with it, but I know Dan has his doubts about his.
He looked up at me from his laptop, "Phil" He whined.
"What?" I asked.
"Would you make me some tea please?" He asked with added puppy dog eyes.
How was I ever going to say no to him?
"Fine" I said, trying to act like it was chore.
It was stupid really, the stupid grin I got every time he spoke to me. I was like a school girl with her crush. I thought that phase was supposed to wear off, but months later here I am.
I walked into the kitchen and filled the kettle, I flicked the switch on and waited for it to boil. I rested my elbow on the worktop and my propped up my head with my hand – I fell into a daydream. It was a mixture of Dan, vid-con and the video ideas I was supposed to be writing down. I was rudely awakened from my daydream by the sound of the kettle bubbling and blowing out a ton of steam. I quickly made two cups of tea and scurried back into the living room.
"Here" I smiled, handing him his tea.
"Thanks" He grinned and looked up at me.
My eyes melted into his, it was hard not too, those beautiful brown eyes. I glanced down at his lips, thinking about how much I wanted to kiss him. But he was one step ahead of me, already pressing his lips against mine. He put his hand on my neck and a tingle ran down my spine. The kiss deepened, getting faster and faster. Carefully I inserted my tongue into his mouth and the kiss began to get more intense. I was seeing stars, forgetting everything around me. Time felt like it was moving slowly, but in a good way. Dan pulled away, with a smile on his face.
"Now stop distracting me" He laughed.
"How's the editing going anyways?" I asked, sitting back down on the sofa.
"Half way there" He groaned, running his hand through his hair causing it to be ruffled and messy like – yet still perfect.
Dan went back to his editing as I sat, replying to tweets on twitter, chuckling every so often at the photo shopped images the phans would make of us. My phone received an email, it was confirming our flights to California for vid-con. I smiled to myself, it was going to be exciting. It was weird to think that by the time we are in California, our families will know about us.
"Dan, are you still up for going home next week?" I asked.
He looked up at me, his face turning pale "Yeah of course" He said, plastering on a fake smile.
"It won't be as bad as you think" I tried to reassure him.
"I'm fine Phil" He said, looking back down at his computer.
"You don't have to pretend you're not scared" I said.
"I'm not scared" He hissed.
He got up from the table and sat beside me on the sofa, he rest his head on my shoulder and I put my arm around him.
"Think of how much better things will be once everyone knows" I said.
Dan nodded in reply and buried his face further into my shoulder. I felt bad I couldn't make him feel better, but we had to get this out of the way. His body heat radiated through my shirt, making me feel warmer.
He sat himself up again, "Now go" I laughed, "You need to finish your editing".
-Two Hours Later-
"I am finally done" Dan said, standing up looking victorious.
I laughed.
"The video is uploaded, time for bed. Are you coming?" He asked me.
"Sure" I smiled.
We made our way upstairs, I changed into my pyjamas and hopped into Dan's bed next to him. We lay facing each other, despite the fact it was hours later I could tell the idea of telling his parents was still on his mind.
"If you want, we can put off telling our parents" I said.
"No" He said "They need to find out, better they find out from me" He replied.
"They're your family, they love you. Plus I'll be there the whole time" I said.
"I know" He answered, taking my hand in his and intertwined our fingers.
HELLO SO SEQUEL! What did you think? This chapter was kind of filling gaps, so I hope it wasn't too boring. I have had such a hard time thinking of a good plot for the sequel. WRITER'S BLOCK UGH. But yeah, hope you enjoyed it!
