So before you read, let me first just say this: yes it's real this time around and no, I don't think it's too young. After all, this is fanfiction so it's all fake.

Okay, I hope you enjoy! :)

And also, Merry Christmas everybody! I hope you had a happy and safe holiday.

A/N I guess you can call this my Christmas/Hanukkah gift haha.


Phil's P.O.V.

I was fidgeting around nervously in my chair, my tie pulling at my neck.

"You alright mate?" Alfie said, sitting down next to me.

I looked at him, my face as pale as can be. "I'm so fucking nervous."

He chuckled and patted my shoulder. "Of course you are. By the end of this night, you'll be an engaged man."

"Hopefully." I corrected.

He rolled his eyes and sat back in his chair, picking up his soda as he did so. "You told me about that dream that Dan had. You told me everything about it Phil. You told me that he would say yes. Why would he change his mind?"

I shrugged, looking down sheepishly. "I don't know. Maybe he realized that he could so much better than me. That he is the most amazing person and I'm just... Phil."

Alfie all but slammed his soda down, startling me in the process before he turned to me. "Phil," He started to say. "You're my best friend. You were there when no one else was. You're not just 'Phil'. You're Phil fucking Lester. And you my friend, are amazing." (A/N No pun intended yet totally intended too)

I gave him a small smile, nodding my head once. "Thanks."

We continued to talk for a few more minutes before I saw Dan walking towards me with Zoe walking with him, a smile plastered across his face as they talked.

"Hey." He mumbled, sitting in his chair. He placed his head in the crook of my shoulder and neck.

I took his hand in mine, interlacing our fingers together and placing a gentle kiss to his forehead. "Hey." I mumbled back.

He yawned slightly, snuggling more into me. I smiled at the gesture.

"Is my bear tired?"

He nodded, his eyes shutting.

"You can't fall asleep on me yet. We still have one more thing to do tonight."

He lifted his head and gave me confused look. "We do?"

A soft smile played at my lips as I nodded. "We do."

"What?"

"It's a surprise."

He pouted and placed his head back where it was.

~~~~~An Hour Later~~~~~

Everything was starting to get put away as prom came to a close.

"Well, I say that that was a very successful dance." Alfie said.

We all had a laugh. "Yeah, I'm kind of happy we decided to come out and do this." I said honestly.

Dan nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I had a lot of fun."

Alfie smiled and gave me a wink when Dan wasn't looking, signaling a 'good luck'. I shot back a smile.

"Have fun." He mouthed.

I nodded in his direction.

We parted our ways and Dan and I got into my car.

"I'm glad you had fun." I said.

He looked at me and smiled. "I really did. Thank you for taking me."

"Anytime bear." I said, kissing his hand.

He blushed slightly and put his seatbelt on.

"So, what is this last thing we have to do?" He asked.

"You'll see."

~~~~~One Drive Later~~~~~

"Why are we at the beach?" He asked, confused.

I shut the engine off and sat back, looking at him. "Because... Now come on."

We got out of the car and we interlocked our hands together. We started to walk down the beach, just looking at the beautiful area before us, being completely engulfed in silence.

It wasn't too long before the silence was broken though...

"So what are we doing here Phil?" Dan asked.

He was looking at me but I was looking out at the sea.

"I wanted to tell you something." I said.

He furrowed his eyebrows. "'Tell me something'? Phil, why did you have to bring me here to tell me something?" He asked, a small chuckled escaping past his lips.

I turned my entire body to face his. His entire demeanor changed as I did so. "Phil?"

"I need to tell you... just how much I love you and how much you impacted my life and how I just... don't want to ever lose you." I started to say.

Dan's eyes started to fill slightly, a smile creeping its way on to his beautiful face. "Well, I can tell you the feeling is mutual." He said quietly.

I took his other hand so I was now holding them both in my hands. "Dan... words can't even begin to describe how I feel about you. You're the most amazing, beautiful, smart, charismatic, sexy, and just all around most incredible person I know. I wonder how I got so lucky to be with you... This past year has been the best year in my entire life all because you were there and a part of it. You make my life worth living Dan. You are the reason I wake up everyday and why I go to sleep with a smile on my face. I know you're there and that you're mine. And I don't want that to change ever."

Tears were falling down his face as he shook his head. "And it won't Phil." He choked out softly.

I wiped the tears away with the pads of my thumb, leaning forward to kiss him gently. As I pulled away, I looked into his eyes and just saw the burst of love shooting all around. It was right here in this moment I knew that it was time.

I found myself getting down on one knee, pulling a box out of my pocket as I did so. I hear a choked sob come from Dan's lips.

I open the box and hold it up. Inside sat a simple, yet beautiful ring. A ring that was perfect for Dan.

"Daniel Howell... will you make me the happiest man alive and for real this time, marry me?"

Dan fell down to his knees with me and attacked me in a bone crushing hug. He knocked us both down on to the ground.

I wrapped an arm around him to keep up from rolling over. He was shaking.

"Dan?" I asked quietly.

"Yes." He mumbled into my neck. "A thousands times yes."

A wash of relief flooded through my system as he pulled away. It was only now I realized I was crying too.

I took the ring out of the box and carefully slid it up Dan's ring finger. He stared at it, completely and utterly mesmerized.

"I love you so fucking much." He said, hugging me again.

I buried my face into the crook of his neck. "I love you too bear."


:D

I feel like I've written so many proposal chapters in the past so I'm starting to struggle with writing ones I haven't already have. Ya feel me? haha

I hope you enjoyed and Merry Christmas again!

Bye guys :)
