"(OC/n)? Are you alright?" I heard Phil ask, my cousin hovering gleefully beside him.

"Phil! Oh my gosh. Ermmm... What... I didn't expect..." I stuttered, my eyes still wide, my knees and hands trembling violently. Oh shit.

"(OC/n) didn't tell me you know her. We're both huge fans!" My cousin squeaked, tugging at Phil's arm, almost spilling his coffee. "Selfie?"

"Of course." Phil replied, his eyes still trained on me. I averted my eyes from him, trying to keep my shaking at bay. After the selfie, he turned his attention back to me.

"Are you here to watch the show?" He asked me and I simply nodded without meeting his eyes.

"Dan's got us a table upstai... Dan! Does he know you're here?" Phil's excitement turned to uncertainty in an instant.

"Don't! Please don't tell him..." I muttered, my words interrupted by Phil's ringtone.

"It's Dan." he said, just loud enough for the two of us to hear. My cousin seemed to have caught on with the tension and thankfully, that took over her fangirling.

"He's probably wondering what's taking you so long." I replied along with a fake laugh. My eyes stung, my heart heavy. "He never did like waiting."

"I..." Phil started but I shook my head.

"Is he doing okay? I mean..." I smacked my forehead dramatically. "Of course he is. You guys... Congratulations."

Phil was studying me, his eyes flickering from my face to his ringing phone and back again. "Talk to him."

"Not before your show. Not ever. I..." I felt like choking. "I need to go." I cried, tears rushing down my cheeks as I ran out, not knowing where to go. I could feel everything spinning.

"OC/n!" I heard my cousin shout, catching up to me. "What happened there?"

I wanted to explain but my sobs were drowning me. I was having difficulty breathing. My cousin took out her water bottle and handed it to me, her fingers brushing away my disheveled hair. "We can not go. I mean I just spent my entire savings for the tickets but..." she joked, her eyes still filled with concern.

I smiled, wiping my eyes with my sleeve. "I'm sorry... How was the selfie?"

"No! You don't get to see the selfie until you tell me what the f*ck was that about! Dan and Phil know you?! What the f*ck?!" She exclaimed. I nodded and started to tell her what happened. When I was done, my cousin was crying.

"You're so stupid... But I get why you did it. Well... Not really... but if you don't wanna go anymore then that'll be okay."

I shook my head. "I'll be fine."

"Sure?"

"Yes."

My cousin studied me. She took out her phone and I thought she was going to show me her selfie with Phil. Instead, she opened her contacts. "Phil gave me his number. He wanted you to call him after the show."
