I'm so sorry, but I had to change the fact of them going to University to High School because its really hard for me to write something in the setting of a university :( Everything else will be kept the same though, so don't worry the story line wont be changed 3
Dans POV
After a minute of me and Phil staring in each others eyes, Phil finally snapped out of it.
He shook his head to get himself back to reality,
'So.. umm... which class are you going to?' He asked me, looking towards the brick wall that I have been pushed against not too long ago.
'Oh, um..' I quickly rummage in my checkered black and red bag, searching for the timetable. I pull it out of my bag and read what it says, 'Oh, um, Science...' I awkwardly say, staring aimlessly at his perfection without Phil noticing,
He looks in my direction and I turn my head as fast as possible.
'Oh, I have science too! E2 right?' He giggles, squinting his eyes in joy.
I nod, looking down and fiddling with my hands.
'Great! I guess we should get going.' He eagerly rises up and holds out his hand, silently offering to help me up.
I hesitate for a second, but grab onto his hand. As he pulls me up I stumble a little bit but he catches me just before I fall.
I feel my face begin to burn up as he helps me get my balance and puts his arm around my shoulder. I do the same to him and we begin to walk, I've never felt so happy to be at school before!
The day was now over and, to my surprise, no one threw any punches. I feel like Phil intimidated them, which confused me since he was so sweet. Not that I'm complaining though, he did practically save my life. I'm kind of disappointing though because me and Phil didn't talk for the rest of the day, and he seemed to fit in quite well.
As I got home, I quickly turned on my laptop because I wanted to see if I had any new followers on my tumblr account, luckily I did! My face lit up as I realised I now had 203 followers! I never thought I'd get this far. As I checked the new followers that were on my account (DanielDreamX), I was shocked to realise that one of my new followers by the name of 'LoveEyesLester' has followed me! The name reminded me of someone that has recently been called out in class to be introduced to everyone.
Lester.. Lester... Les..Ter?... PHIL!
I was shocked to realise that it was Phil! The only person that actually cared about me. Me! Of all people.
I instantly decided to message him, over run by joy. But just as I clicked on his name in the messages page, I hesitated.
What if I write something stupid!? What if I mess up? Then I really would have no one at all. Just like last year and this year, not including today of course.
I decide to think carefully about my choice of words.
I could say hey, but that would be too friendly, like I've been his friend forever. Maybe howdy? Wait no, I'm not from fricking Texas! And I'm not flowey from undertale either. I decided to just go with 'Hi' since it wasn't too friendly or too lazy.
I hesitantly type in the message
DanielDreamX: Hi ^-^
I wait eagerly for a reply, like a little kid who was being taken out for Ice Cream.
As I see the words saying
LoveEyesLester is typing...
I instantly regret messaging him.
LoveEyesLester: Hey Dan! ^o^ Please dont think I'm weird for following your account, I just saw it and a picture of you holding a unicorn plushie and I thought it was adorable and instantly clicked follow without thinking.
I feel my face burn up as I read the words 'I thought it was adorable', he thinks I'm cute? I think to myself, over and over again, but then instantly realise I just met him! I can't go around liking guys I barley know!
DanielDreamX: I really dont mind, or think you're creepy. You just saw it on your recommended so you clicked follow :3 I honestly would of done the same thing with You, your profile picture is really cute as well though :) I love your little umbrella! So pastelly, really brings off the Tumblr vibes, am I right? xD
LoveEyesLester: Haha yeah, it was a gift from my grandma, I never thought I'd use it tbh.
Our conversation kind of just went by so fast, until Phil had to get to sleep at 1:00 AM. I decide to do the same thing.
Just as I'm about half asleep, I hear my phone Buzz, instantly waking me up. It was a text?
Who would text me at this time? I curiously open the message,
It read: Hello :)
It was pretty freaky knowing they didn't say their name? I was too tired to reply so I just left it on read and went back to sleep to deal with it another day.
*Disclaimer*
I changed Harry into Alfie! Im so sorry I just want there to be real people that they know in this, I didn't think about it before. This is the last change, I promise!
Dans POV
It was the morning now, and surprise surprise! The same old thing, yet again. But I had a feeling that something was gonna be different today; First Phil found my tumblr, now this mystery person texted me!? It was really strange. This was probably the most eventful thing that's happened to me in years, which is a pretty sad thought because of the fact that its not even that interesting.
As I made my way to school, proudly wearing my FOB (Fall out boy) T-shirt, and strangely enough, I had a the feeling of warmth in the bottom of my heart. I finally felt loved by someone, I finally felt like I had a friend to lend me a hand and a shoulder to cry on.
As I walk silently towards the school with my black earphones plugged into my ears, blasting Cemetery drive by My Chemical Romance at the loudest my phone could go. It was about halfway through the song when I felt an abrupt weight being put onto my shoulder.
Out of shock, I stopped. I knew it was Alfie, it had to be! If it wasn't, then... Who would it be? Maybe it was Phil? I'm not sure exactly, it would be highly unlikely if it was. But no, it wasn't either of them.
"Well, well, well, so the fag doesn't have any friends? Not surprised." An unfamiliar voice speaks out, "Oh, not gonna reply are you? Hmph. Why do I even bother? People seem to beat you up every day, so why should I join in? Oh right, its cause freaks like you shouldn't exist!' He yelled, kicking me down to the ground, my earphones falling, and my phones screen cracked slightly, but luckily it wasn't too badly cracked. He kicked me again, resulting in me falling from my hands and knees down into me just lying flat. I struggle to get back to my knees and start coughing up blood. The more he kicked me, the worse it got. He eventually left to let me cripple up into a fetal position, alone, on the cold, hard, ground. I didn't even know who he was! I didn't get one glimpse of him, so that meant I didn't know who to look out for.
Usually people would just copy what Alfie does, seeing as he was one of the most popular people in the school, but if someone else is starting to do it without any command, that's just one more person that could hurt me without Alfie there encouraging it.
Suddenly I heard the soothing sound of Phils voice coming closer
"DAN! Are you okay?!" I heard Phil yell from a short distance. He soon reached me and noticed I wasn t replying or opening my eyes. I began to feel heat of my cheeks being gripped onto and my head being shaken around. I quickly open my eyes and I notice the frown on Phil's face disappear.
"Oh my gosh Dan! You had me so worried! What happened?" He raises his voice, still sitting on his knees and holding onto my face.
'Nothing... I'm fine don't worry about it.' I state. I watch as his eyes drift away from my face, toward the blood that has now stained the concrete. His eyes begin to tear up as his hands leave my face. He shuffles over towards it, eyes wide with shock.
'Dan... you're not okay..."
"Y-yes, I am!"
"Then whats this?" He gestures to the puddle of blood and cracked phone that you could tell was obviously mine because of the MCR case.
I sit up in silence, and after long pause Phil finally breaks the silence.
"Nevermind, you dont have to tell me if you don't want to, as long as you're okay!"
"Thank you..." I awkwardly reply.
He gathers up my things and heads the direction opposite from the school.
"Phil?"
He stops for a second and turns his head towards my direction.
"Yes?"
"Where are you going?"
"To your house of course!"
I chuckle at the comment.
"Why?" I tilt my head.
"Cause theres no way you're going to school in that condition!"
"Hmm... okay..." I reply, unsure of this decision. I've always gone to school, even when I got beaten up in the morning.
I stand up and watch as he kept on walking, then after 5 seconds, suddenly stops.
"Dan..." he says
"Yes?" I reply, almost instantly.
He turned around as I realise the most adorable, innocent look had on his face.
"I dont know where you live..."
"What a shock." I laugh, "C'mon, I'll show you." I giggle and attempt to run over to him, but I fall instead, and yet again, Phil saves me right before I hit the ground.
"You really shouldnt be running Dan." Phil kindly addressed.
"Sorry Phil!" I tried my best to smile, but I was feeling mixed emotions now, and Phil didn't need to know that. I wouldn't want him to worry even more than he already does.
I kindly directed him to my apartment, it was only a 10 minute walk from the place I was found. As I stood outside the old building, I smile, knowing I'm safe with him.
"You live in an apartment?" Phil asked, confused.
"Yeah," I stare down at the ground, slightly embarrassed.
"I wish I could live in an apartment. Theres so many people around, it just seems like it would be fun. So, do your parents live with you?"
My eyes widen with shock, although I was relieved about him saying he wanted to live in one, but at the same time knowing I couldn't tell the truth about my parents. If I did, he'd think I'm a freak! Just like everyone else in my school.
"Y-yeah." I felt guilty, but I knew that this decision would keep me safe.
A faint smile appeared on his face, but he didnt say anything.
"Should we go in?" I asked, "Of course!" He almost screamed those words, I didnt know why he was so excited. He gestured that he wanted me to get on his back, I gave him a quite bewildered look, I guess he realised I had no idea what he was on about because he decided to tell me why he wanted me to get on his back.
Phil's POV
Dan looked like he was in so much pain, therefore I decided to offer him a ride on my back so that he wouldn't have to walk too much and get hurt even worse. He obviously didnt understand what I meant when I gestured for him to get on my back. Ugh, he must think I'm some sort of creep. Why is it that I always ruin relationships by looking weird, out of place, or just plain awkward. Wait. Did I just say I liked him? Oh my gosh. Theres no way I like him, I couldnt like him! Could I? Ugh this is so confusing.
"Phil?" Dan tried to get my attention bt waving his hand in mt face several times. He eventually gave up and just poked my cheek.
My face burned red as I finally escaped from all the questions that were running through my mind.
"Sorry, I was just daydreaming." I explained,
"Thats fine, dont worry about it."
"So, should we go up?" I politely mentioned
"Yeah sure!" I watched as a genuine smile slowly crept its way onto Dan's lips.
He jumped onto my back and wrapped his arms around my neck, gently laying his head on my shoulder. I felt my face begin to heat up, going redder than ever! It wouldn't go away, no matter how hard I tried to think of something else, every thought just resulted back to Dan. I shook it off, trying my best to repress the thoughts.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please secure your seatbelts. We are preparing for takeoff." I said with the impression of a pilot. I heard a small giggle escape from Dan's soft lips. I begin to make myself sound like an aeroplane while running around in circles, and after about 5 spins I widened my arms, like the wings of a plane, and ran into the building. As I began to make my way towards the elevator Dan spoke
"Phil, Phil, slow down!" He laughed really hard and that was probably the nicest sound I've heard this morning.
"I cant hear you over my epic...ness?" I laughed at the fact that I just pretty much made a fool out of myself, but Dan laughed with me, which smothered me with relief.
As we entered the elevator Dan pressed a button that said '5' on it while trying to keep his balance by grabbing hold of my hair.
"Do you want me to let you down now?"
"No. I kinda like it up here, other than the fact that I could fall down any minute."
I chuckled as we slowly walked out of the elevator.
"So, whats your surname Dan?" I asked, regretting it straight after.
I felt his heart skip a beat as his chest was pressed against my back. It was strange because of the fact that it was highly unlikely that he liked me.
"H-h-Howell."
"Oo can I nickname you wolfy?" I joked, still walking straight ahead.
"Yeah, once I let my hobbit hair escape my straightener."
"Hobbit hair?" I cheekily asked.
"Uhh..." he seemed embarrassed, "Oh I see my apartment. It says 57 on it, over there!" He pointed at the door, avoiding my question.
I decided to ask about it later, he didnt seem to wanna talk about this 'hobbit hair' of his. I could tell he was struggling to get into his pocket from up there to get his keys,
"Dan, let me." I reached my hand out for his pocket and my face went red, hopefully his did too.
I grabbed the keys, it had an adorable little cat charm on it with long black whiskers.
I unlocked the door and swung it open, ready for a new chapter in my life to begin.
