A\N : So how is the squid army doing? Good? Bad? I will give you both reactions. Oh great! Aw I hope its ok. Anyways, here is another chapter in my now to be series. So I know this is kinda soon. I just published this yesterday, it feels like, but I have nothing else to do. So I decided I would just start it off as Phil the morning he met Madden, then just go to Mad's POV for the rest of the time afterwards. ENJOY!
( Phil's POV )
I wake up in happy mood. I have a plan. My roommate Dan had pulled a prank on me a couple of weeks ago, were he taped the Robert Patterson mask I got him for christmas a few years ago, to the door of my cupboard and open it enough that I would see it i when I walked in. Needless to say, when I came in I almost had a heart attack.
But today I would get revenge... most likely. Almost every time I try to get even, something bad happens. Like once I tried to hit him in the head with the christmas tree star, but on the way down I hit the light. So yeah, luck wasn't always something I had.
I get up out of bed, still just wearing my boxers, and make my way to Dan's room. On the way out the door I grab a Delia Smith mask off my desk. I put it on and sneak into his room, stealthily walking to the end of the bed. Careful not to wake him, I crawl onto the bed just laying next to him. He is laying on his side facing the inside of the bed, so if he opens his eyes he will just see my face, or more likely just delia's face.
" Dan." I say repeatedly, not wanting to yell and make him jump up.
After awhile, I start getting impatient. I want to get back at him SO much. ' One more time.' I think to myself, ' Then you can yell.' I say his name one more time. Right when Im about to yell, he begins to stir. I stifle a laugh, trying not to alert him of my presence. He opens his eyes, staring at me for about three seconds, then closes them peacefully not fully understanding whats in front of him.
That lasted about four more seconds, before his eyes shoot open in shock, finally realizing that someone is in his bed. He rolls off the bed in shock, screaming all the way. Once he falls off the bed and he is out of my sight, I begin to laugh uncontrollably. Dan pokes his head up over the mattress to look at me oddly. I pull off the mask and smile happily at him.
"I finally got you back!" I cry out.
"You suck Phil." He says fully wake after the shock.
I sit up in the bed and he points out of the room. I get up and walk out giggling at him the whole way. I close the door on my way out, going back to my room to change. After searching for awhile, I head into the bathroom and take a shower.
A few hours later and me clad in my black skinny jeans and lion T-shirt and black hoodie, and Im heading off to the studio with a still grumpy Dan. As we walk down the street I catch sight of a small dachshund running up to me, leash trailing behind it. I crouch down as the dog comes near, and it stops in front of me. I pick it up and look at its tag.
Name: Pepper
Gender: Female
Owner: Madden Smith
"Hey girl, what are you doing out on your own?" I ask her.
Of course she doesn't answer me. I look around and realize Dan had kept on walking down the street. I sigh knowing I would be late for work, but someone probably wanted their dog back. I walk around holding the dog, and looking for some sign that someone was looking for a dog.
I look down when someone bumps into me. A girl about my age with neon red hair stands before me. As she begins to look up at me, she stops when she sees the dog in my arms. She takes her from me quickly, holding her to her chest saying, "Pepper" happily.
"Take it you're the owner?" I say, hoping to catch her attention.
She looks up at me and I see her bright blue eyes for the first time. She smiles and takes a moment to study my face. I wait patiently until she is done, smiling the whole time.
" Yeah, Im Madden. Sorry about Pepper, she's a handful." She says finnaly.
" No, thats fine, I love dogs. Im Phil by the way. Anyways I have to go. See you around!" I say, and pat her dogs head as I leave.
As I walk away, I faintly here her say, " Well he seems nice Peps. Was he nice to you?" She then begins to speak in a high pitched voice, but I am now to far away to here what ever it was she said. I smile. ' She talks to her dog,' I think to myself, ' Just like Toby.' I walk along. Now just gotta find Dan.
( Maddens POV )
After I get my order at Star Bucks I begin to walk home, balancing Pepper in one arm and holding onto my coffee in the other, hoping desperately that I wont spill it on myself. I set Pepper down holding tightly to the leash. She is walking a step or two ahead of me, acting as if she hadn't run away earlier.
Im walking past the BBC building and see Phil from earlier walking towards it. He is walking with a guy who looks a few years younger than him with brown hair cut similar to his own. The guy sees me and turns smiling and walks up to me. Phil doesn't seem to notice his friend has gone from his side yet.
The man walks up to me and smiles, " Hi Im Dan, may I pet your dog?" He asks politely.
I smile and nod. He bends down and begins to pet Pepper, who is relishing in the attention. Out of the corner of my eye I see Phil finally notice that Dan isn't there anymore. He turns looking for him, when he spots us he walks toward us.
Seemingly not seeing me, he pokes Dan with his toe, " Daaaaaaan we need to gooooo." He whines.
" Yeah yeah, just a minute. Look at this cutey." He says gesturing at Pepper.
Phil looks down at her and something seems to register in his face. He looks up at me smiling, finally realizing I was there. I smile back and take a sip of my coffee. He walks closer to me.
"Sorry about him Madden, he really likes dogs." He says apologetically.
I laugh partly out of the fact that was along the lines of what I said to him when we met not an hour ago, partly out of shock he remembered my name. 'Well why would he forget, you met him only an hour ago?' I mentally question myself.
" Thats fine Phil, Peps loves the attention." I say happily.
Dan stands up and looks at us confused. I bend down to pick up Pepper so she wont run away again, and when I come back up he asks,
" You two know each other?"
Phil laughs, " Yeah Dan Im not as socially awkward as you are, I have friends. I met her an hour ago, when her dog got loose."
The look of surprise leaves Dan's face and he smiles at me.
"Um I have to go home and pack." I say to Phil.
" Oh where are you going?" He asks me.
I smile at his attempt to keep me here longer, " Im going to LA to visit my friend." I reply.
"Ok have fun." Phil says as I begin to walk away.
I call back to them as I walk, " See you around guys!"
With that I head home in hopes that I would soon find out why Phil looks so familiar.
