Chapter 11
Dan's POV
No matter how many times I begged and pleaded he still didn't relent. He's going to kill Phil… he's going to kill him! And all because of my big mouth! The tears washing down my face were full of sadness, anger, helplessness, and most of all hate. I hate this evil man, I hate how Phil is being killed while I can do nothing about it, I hate myself for being completely stupid and ruining everything once again, and I hate the awful sound of Phil's screams.
What was a world that allowed this to happen while it played on normally, not giving a fuck? How was the world still revolving when it felt like mine was frozen in time? Why were people going about their daily business while my best friend is being beaten to death?
The sounds, the sight, they're all splitting my soul into fractured pieces. And the worst part was the man wasn't even looking at Phil. He was watching me. Watching my reaction with an obvious joy. I had even allowed my mind to create the illusion that maybe it was a good thing that me and my flatmate were in this together. I had allowed Phil to convince me that everything would be alright in the end.
But it's not alright and it never will be. I felt anger at everything. Even a little bit at my friend for planting false hope in me.
A strangled cry escaped me. Phil Lester. First my idol, then my Skype pal, finally friend, and onto best friend. Now he could be killed right in front of me by this psychotic murderer. He deserves better than this. He is the type of person that loves to see others smile and laugh. Gentle, caring, and kind. If anyone should get to live a long, fulfilling life, it's him.
I want to close my eyes, to shut it out, but it would be like betraying Phil. So I sat hopeless and begging, pleading and yelling, while he was kicked like a fucking football over and over again. Once more losing all faith in the goodness of humanity.
And wishing I could take his place and all his pain and suffering with every fiber of my being.
Well how are you all enjoying the ride? You know, I would say that I kind of feel bad for putting Dan and Phil in this situation, but that would be a lie at this point. This story has been great in improving my writing ability, and I'm really happy with it. :)
Also, I might be starting a new Dan and Phil fanfic soon, so stay tunned!
