"I have to hold in my fangirling…" Abbie breathed, "…Phil Lester is sitting opposite me," Phil blushed then giggled, after all these years he still wasn't used to girls saying stuff like that, although he shouldn't by now but he always found it very strange, he was never popular at school, he never had many friends, only a few, so to think that there were thousands of girls all over the country screaming every time they saw him made him feel weird, and so many of them probably wished they were Clarissa, she had received a lot of hate from jealous teenage girls since they told the fans about the relationship and since she started making videos on YouTube.
"I'm sorry, Abbie," Clarissa smiled, "I didn't know you watched their videos,"
"Watch their videos!?" Abbie exclaimed, "I have a freaking shrine of them on my wall!"
"Then why didn't you see the video where I told everyone we were going out?" Phil looked up at the blue eyed girl.
"My internet's down," She stared at her feet, she hated awkward silences.
The hospital room door opened and Dan returned
"That was quick," Clarissa said, eyeing him suspiciously
"Wasn't open," Dan replied, taking the seat in the corner of the room.
Clarissa whispered something in Phil's ear that made him smile, Dan admired Phil, the way his bright eyes lit up even more when he smiled, the way he brushed his dark hair away from his face and the sound of his laugh, Dan smiled as their eyes met, he felt a wave of overpowering love go through his body, wait what? Dan was straight, wasn't he? This was his best friend he was thinking about, no, it can't be right, he doesn't feel this way about Phil, does he? He remembered all the fanfictions he and Phil had read together, for a joke, he remembered that time years ago when Phil was still living with his parents and they went away for a week so Dan stayed there the whole time they were away, he remembered the hug tackle that Phil did to him which gave him butterflies, he remembered that time he got asked to play gay chicken with him in one of the Q and A videos but said no, because Phil obviously wouldn't want to, then he remembered the truth or dare video were they almost did, and he remembered the great feeling he got when Phil touched him, but he pretended to get freaked out so no-one would notice what he was feeling, did he love Phil? Dan shivered, no, that can't be right, can it?
"Dan?" Clarissa interrupted Dan from his thoughts, "are you alright, you blanked out there for a second,"
"What, No, I'm fine," Dan replied hastily, "I just left something at the apartment I'll be back soon," He got up and ran quickly out the door.
4 MONTHS LATER
"Phil!" Clarissa giggled as Phil chased her across the huge grassy field that belonged to his parents; he and Clarissa had travelled up north for a week to visit his family. Phil eventually caught up with her and tackled her, they lay laughing breathlessly on the ground together.
"Well that was fun!" Phil laughed as he stroked Clarissa's long blonde hair, "I forgot how fun it was to live up here, with miles of grass, to just run around,"
"Even though I am the most unfit person I know," Clarissa gasped, breathless.
"No, correction, I am the most unfit person you know," Phil stood up and looked around, admiring the English countryside, he remembered growing up here and remembered the fun times he had with his brother, just messing about. "You know, Clarissa, you're the first girl I've ever brought back up here with me,"
"It's a very nice place, isn't it?" She stood up to join him and slipped her hand into his.
"I would love to move back here some time," he said, taking Clarissa over to the fence a couple of feet in front of them and opening the gate.
"Where are we going?" Clarissa asked him as they walked up the huge grassy hill on the other side.
"You'll see," he replied as a cute smirk spread across his face.
They eventually entered the forest at the top of the hill and Phil guided Clarissa round the twisting path of trees and bushes until they came to a tree with a wooden shack built up in it with a ladder. Phil stood and gazed up at it.
"A tree house," Clarissa breathed
"Yup," Phil looked at Clarissa, "My dad and I built it when I was ten," He started climbing up the ladder, "You coming up?"
"Yes, ok," Clarissa followed him up and sat in the wooden shack looking down at the forest.
DAN'S POV
I stumbled out of bed and looked at my phone, ten o'clock, probably the earliest I've been up this week, usually I have Phil to come and tell me to move my lazy arse out of bed but this week, because he and Clarissa have gone up to Rossendale to visit his parents, I've been sleeping until twelve o'clock every morning. Suddenly, my Phone started ringing, which made me jump, "Hello?" I answered
"Hi, it's Heidi," My friend's voice came through the phone
"Oh, Hello," I said, biting my nails, I kind of liked her.
"Do you fancy meeting me at Starbucks at around, twelve o'clock, say?"
"Yeah, that'd be fine Phil's away, and I don't have anything to do so, yeah,"
"See you there then," There was a click as she hung up, I had met Heidi a few months ago on YouTube, I had started watching her videos and then we started tweeting each other, then after about a couple of weeks I found out she lived just down the road from me and we became friends. Was this a date? No, it was just two friends meeting up, although I couldn't help but be self-conscious about my looks, I walked quickly to the bathroom, stripped of my pyjamas and got into the shower.
