Here is Chapter 2, I hope you guys enjoy. :D Disclaimer: I own nothing, but the plot.
Phil's P.O.V.
I sit in my last class of the day playing with the fraying edges of my notebook. I cautiously look over to see Dan. He's reading a book like always. God I hated that piece of shit! How could someone be so cute like that all time? It wasn't fair and I couldn't help but to secretly like him.
I should probably introduce myself. My name is Phillip Michael Lester, but my friends call me Phil. I am a very outgoing person and I'm extremely vocal. I like lions and mismatch socks, but most of all I like Dan Howell. I try to hide the fact I'm gay because it scares me and I know I would get bullied. That is why I am such a dick to Dan. I know I should stop, but I'm scared if I stop being rude that everyone will find out that I have such a massive crush on him. I would never hit him, but that doesn't mean I don't get pretty verbal. Well that's enough for introductions.
I exhale loudly as the bell rings signaling the end of the school day. I'm the first one out of the door. I head to my locker and wait for the halls to clear up. I think today is the day that I explain myself to Dan and I tell him I like him. I place my head against my locker and then I take a deep breath. When I get the courage up I begin to walk to Dan's locker.
"Oh look who we have here, Daniel Howell," I try to say flirtatiously, leaning against the locker next to his.
"Please leave me alone, Phil," He tells me as he continues to stare intently into his locker.
"Why on earth would I want to do that?" I smile as I try to be flirty.
"Seriously, leave me alone. I have to get home," he says almost inaudibly as he starts to walk off.
I start to panic and start taunting him, "You're not getting away from me just like that. Grow a pair and stop running to your mommy for everything."
"Seriously, go fuck yourself," He squeaks.
I grab his shoulder and shove him against the locker and growl, "Don't you fucking dare talk to me like that ever again!
"But you're allowed to talk to me like I don't deserve to be alive every single day?" he retorts with fury a fury in his eyes that cut me deep.
"Go fuck yourself," I spit as I walk away.
As soon as I'm out of few of him I start to run. How could I be so fucking stupid? What was so wrong with me that I couldn't tell him I liked him? There had to be something major wrong with me. I just want hold him and call him mine. I liked him so much and it was killing me.
When I get home I head straight to my room and try to breath. I couldn't keep doing this, I would eventually have to tell Dan. I felt so stupid. Why could I not just stop and tell him how I feel. I bang my head off my door as I lean against it.
There is a soft knock at my door. When I open it, my mum is standing there with a questioning look on her face. I start to cry when I look at her.
"Phil, dear. What's wrong?" She steps into my room and hugs me tightly.
"I hate myself mum. I can't stop being a jerk and I don't know what to do," I sob as I hug her back.
"Phil, sweetie, slow down. Let's go sit down and you can tell me everything?" She sooths.
I nod as we go and sit on my bed. "Well there is this guy at school that I really like, his name is Daniel Howell."
"Oh, the boy that lives next door!" My mum points out.
"He lives next door?" I ask as my eyes go wide.
"Yeah, him and his father moved in shortly after his mom died," she explains to me.
"Crap!" I exclaim as I instantly feel worse for what I said to Dan earlier.
"Anyways, what happened, Phil?" she asks again.
"Well I really like him, but I'm scared of people finding out that I'm gay. I don't want to lose my friends and I don't want everyone at school to shun me." I explain. "So I treat him really bad, but I don't mean to. I do it so people won't think I like him. I get scared and I become a major jerk to him. Mum, I don't understand what I should do."
"Well if you like him, you should definitely stop being rude to him. You shouldn't care what others thing. If your friends stop being friends with you because you're gay, then they aren't really true friends. Only a true friend would stick with you through anything." She explains as she pats my back.
" You're right mum. I think tomorrow I will try to tell him that I like him. I will stop being a jerk to him.
"That's my boy. Tell me how it goes," She smiles brightly at me and then kisses my head. "Well, I'm going to start dinner."
She smiles and leaves the room. She softly shuts the door and leaves me to think. I lay down in my bed and stare up at the ceiling thinking about how I was going to tell Dan tomorrow. I refused to be rude to him tomorrow.
I get up to grab my homework and put on music when I hear something. At first I think it might be the T.V., but as it gets louder, I realize that is coming from outside the house. I stop what I'm doing and listen. It is loud enough for me to hear, but more than likely my mum couldn't hear it.
"You're late! You're 15 minutes late! What the bloody hell was so important that you had to be late!" a voice screams causing me to jump.
"What is that?" I wonder to myself.
"Liar!" the voices shouts again.
I move my curtain to the side to see if I can see anything. When I move the curtain over what I see is a man slapping a younger man across the face. I stand there shocked for a moment. Who where they and why were they fighting? I couldn't tell who either of them were, so it made me wonder if it was Dan and his father. I wait a few moment to see if anything else happens. It worries me, but it was probably nothing. It was probably just a small altercation.
I tried to shake it off and go help my mom with dinner. I would forget about this by the morning. I just hoped it wasn't Dan and that the guy was okay.
I hope you guys enjoyed, there is more to come, so stay tuned. :D -Smoshy-Timelord.
