okay, now I do hope you enjoy the chapter :)
Dan's P.O.V.
The sunlight blinded my vision as I opened them. It's too early to be awake.
Wait, why am I awake so early? It's Saturday! I groan and snuggle deeper into Phil's chest. Just as I'm about to fall back into unconsciousness though, I feel Phil move beneath me.
I pretend to be asleep so Phil will stop moving and it works because soon enough, Phil did indeed stop moving.
Just as I was once again falling back into my peaceful slumber, I felt Phil move again. I groaned in annoyance.
"Phil, stop moving." I mumbled.
I felt him chuckle. "Sorry bear but I got to get going. I have to go to work soon."
I groaned once again and rolled off of him. I snuggled into my pillow. I felt the bed shift as Phil hoisted himself off of it. My eyes were closed but I could sense him walk around and lean down in front of me. "I'll see you later okay bear?" He asked.
I nodded and opened my eyes and looked into his. His beautiful blue ones. He kissed me on the lips softly.
"Bye." He said standing upright once the kiss was over.
"Bubye." I said, falling in and out of consciousness.
I heard my door open and close before I fell back asleep.
~~~~~A Few Hours Later~~~~~
My eyes flickered open, adjusting to the light. I check the time. 11:29. See, that's a more reasonable time to be awake. Not 7 am.
I yawned and stretched out my limbs, sitting there for a second staring at the floor. Oh come on, I'm sure I'm not the only one who does it. When I finally feel not lazy, I stand up and slowly make my way out of my room.
I walk down the stairs, yawning again as I do so.
I turn the corner into the kitchen but halt in my tracks when I see Adam, Victoria and my gram all sitting there looking like they've seen a ghost.
"Guys?" I asked, making my presence known.
They all looked towards me. I noticed immediately that something was wrong.
"Guys, what's wrong?" I asked, suddenly alarmed.
"You may uh, want to sit down Dan." Adam said, swallowing hard.
"I don't want to sit down. What happened?" I asked more demandingly this time.
"It's Phil." Adam said.
I felt my knees go weak. "Phil? What about Phil? What happened?" I asked quickly.
"He got into a car wreck on his way to work."
My knees gave way and I collapsed to the floor. "Wha-what?" I sobbed. "Why didn't you wake me?!" I yelled.
"Dan sweetie, calm down." My gram said.
"No! Why didn't you wake me up?! I want to be with him!" I cried.
"He's in surgery still Dan. He has been for the last few hours."
Tears are streaming down my face at lightening speed.
It went quiet for a few minutes. All that was heard was my heart beating loudly in my ear.
"Which hospital is he in?" I asked quietly.
"London Memorial." Victoria said. (A/N I doubt this is a real place but I can't be bothered to check for an actual hospital in London ATM lol)
"Where are your keys?" I asked Adam.
"I'll take you. You shouldn't be driving while you've been crying. Come on." He said, helping me back on my feet.
We ran out the door, me literally still in my pajamas, but I couldn't care less at this point. All I care about is Phil.
During the drive, it was relatively quiet. Adam just saying things here and there like 'He'll be okay' and 'Phil's a fighter'.
"Do you know what happened?" I asked suddenly.
Adam sighed softly. "Man blew a red light. Slammed right into Phil."
I close my eyes, more tears escaping. "How... how badly is he hurt?"
"His parents said he was in critical condition when they brought him in. He's been in surgery since."
I went quiet, just trying to process everything.
"I was just with him hours ago and now... now he's on the brink of death." I said shakily. "I-I can't lose him. Not him too." I cried.
Adam grabbed my hand, eyes still on the road. "You're not going to lose him Dan. I can promise you that."
I cried. I just cried.
~~~~~A Few Hours Later~~~~~
Phil's out of surgery but he's still unconscious. Doctors don't know when or if he'll wake up.
But I know he will. Phil wouldn't leave me.
"Can I ask you something Dan?" My brother asked suddenly.
I looked up at him through my bloodshot eyes. "What?" I croaked out.
"Do you love him?"
"Yes... I do love him." I said without an hesitation.
He smiled and leaned forward, patting my knee. "Then you go in there right now and tell him that. Maybe he'll wake up when he hears you say it."
I bit my lip. "Adam, I don't know."
He shrugged. "It's worth a try."
I looked down at the floor and then to the door. "Okay." I said getting up.
I knocked on the door softly before poking my head in. His parents look back at me and smile sadly.
"Hi Mr. and Mrs. Lester." I said quietly.
"Hi Dan. Would you like to sit with him for a bit?" Phil's mum asked.
"Could I please?" I said.
They smiled. "Of course. We'll be right outside if you need us."
I nodded. "Okay, thanks."
They got up and Phil's dad walked over to me, giving my shoulder a tight squeeze.
The door shut behind him and took the place of where his mum was sitting.
I took Phil's hand in mine. It's colder than usual.
"You know, when you said that we'd see each other later, this isn't exactly what I had in mind." I said, letting out a chuckle but not as in I'm laughing, but as in empty humor.
"When I heard that you got into an accident, my entire world just stopped. The thought of losing you flickered through my mind and how desperately I just wanted to get to you and be by your side. And now that I'm here, I have so much to tell you." I started saying, tears threating to fall.
"I'm such a chicken shit for telling you all this while you're unconscious in the hospital but I can't keep it in anymore." I continued.
"I love you Phil. I love you so fucking much. Please don't leave me."
I went silent for a bit, the only noise being the monitors beeping.
"First I lose my favorite teacher, then I lose my parents. I can't lose you too Phil. I refuse to lose you too. Please don't leave me behind." I was full on bawling now.
"Please Phil. Everyone I have ever loved has left me. I only have you left." I whimpered.
Time passed when I suddenly felt Phil's grip tighten around my hand.
"D-Dan?" Phil croaked.
"Oh my god, Phil! Thank god." I attacked his face with kisses. "You're okay now." I said.
Phil chuckled and brought my hand up to his lips, kissing it.
I smiled softly and leaned into kiss him.
When we pulled away, we looked at each other, huge grins plastered on our faces.
"Dan?" He said suddenly.
"Yeah Phil?"
"I love you too."
Aw yay haha
