Happy New Year everybody! Can't believe it's already 2017. God, where did the year go?
I hope that you're having a great New Year's day and if you aren't, well, I hope I can make it better with a new chapter to And Then I Met Phil haha
Enjoy!
Phil's P.O.V.
"I just still can't believe it." Dan said.
I chuckled, kissing his forehead. "Well believe it babe. Now you're stuck with me forever."
A smile tugged at his lips as he leaned up to kiss me. "I wouldn't have it any other way."
It's been 2 weeks since we got engaged and we're keeping it a secret, at least for the time being. The only two people who know are Alfie (because he helped me) and his girlfriend, Zoe (because she cracked him).
It's been hard. Dan has to either hide his hand from everyone or just take the ring off (which he hates doing).
"So, what do you want to do for your birthday?" I asked.
Oh yeah, Dan's birthday is tomorrow.
He shrugged his shoulders. "Nothing."
"Oh come on, there's got to be something you want to do."
A smile crept its way on to his features as he shook his head. "I just want to spend the day with you."
"But you do that everyday. I'm surprised you haven't grown tired of me. After a half hour, my parents are even egging to get away." I said, a snicker escaping my lips.
Dan rolled his eyes, a laugh passing his lips. "Well, sorry to tell you Mr. Lester but I could never grow tired of you. I wouldn't of agreed to marry you otherwise." He said jokingly.
We both laughed. "Yeah, I guess that's true."
I kissed his forehead. I felt him melt into it.
"Is there anyway I can get my birthday present early?" He asked.
"Your birthday present? Which one?" I asked cheekily.
He rolled his eyes playfully and hit my chest. "You spoon. I told you not to go over the top."
I snickered again. "Have you met me? Besides, you're worth everything."
He blushed slightly and wrapped his arms around my neck. "Ditto." He whispered before pulling me on top of him. "Now... about that early birthday gift..."
"Say no more..." I whispered into his ear before kissing him.
~~~~~Some Time Later~~~~~
"I hate hiding this from them." Dan said softly.
I brushed the hair out of his beautiful face. "I know you do bear. I do too. But we will soon, after we graduate."
"That feels so far away."
"Only 2 more weeks. We can do it, yeah?"
He nodded his head but still had a sad look on his face.
"You alright?" I asked, tilting his chin up to look me in the eyes.
He shrugged and tried to look down again, but I kept a stern grip on him.
"Bear."
Tears filled his eyes and they started to flow down his cheeks at rapid speed. I was caught of guard by this but quickly regrouped, my thumbs moving to wipe away his tears.
"Hey, hey, hey. What's with the tears?"
"I-I..." He sobbed.
I pulled him into a tight embrace, him clinging to me as soon as our bodies collided together. His body was wracked with tears and trembles.
"Baby, please tell me what's wrong." I whispered.
His shakes slowed down eventually to a stop. He was still crying though.
We stood there for a few more minutes before he started to pull away from me. When he looked at me, my heart broke.
His eyes were blood shot red from the tears, his nose was running slightly and his cheeks were tear stained.
"Dan?" I asked quietly.
"I-I just... I was just thinking about how... how my parents won't be there is all." A few more tears slipped down his face.
My heart broke even more hearing those words. "Aw, Dan."
"I never thought I would be able to find a guy who loves me so much and cares so much, let alone marry him. And then I met you and it just makes me sad realizing that my parents won't be there... or give me away to you." I whimpered.
I hugged him again, his face burying in the crook of my neck. "I'm so sorry bear."
"It's not your fault. Don't apologize."
We stayed quiet before an idea popped into my head.
"Hey," I started to say, pulling away to look at Dan. "Why don't we go visit them?"
Dan looked at me, squinting his eyes slightly. "What?"
"Let's go see them. You can tell them everything. Maybe it'll make you feel better."
"You-you would do that for me?"
A smile grew upon my face as I nodded. "Of course I would. Besides, I get to meet my in laws."
He chuckled slightly but nodded nonetheless. "I love you."
"And I love you."
He kissed me, his arms slinging around my neck, mine creeping their way around his waist.
"Round two?" He mumbled against my lips.
I smirked. "You just read my mind."
I thought of this storyline literally sitting here so I hope you liked it.
I hope you guys enjoyed and I will see you soon with the next chapter!
bye guys! :)
