Dan struggled to study the words printed on the paper, within a day he'd have to go through finals. How the bloody hell would he pass with all the procrastination he's been doing literally all year, he'd be surprised if he could even pass based on only his exam grade because he'd hadn't shit for school and he knew it. But in the background was the one thing that distracted him most. Definitely one of Dan's best friends ever, Phil Lester. His adorable chuckles in the background as he played Spyro were adorable, it was practically impossible to ignore it. As phil stuck his tongue out of his mouth with such focus and occasionally twitching as he got more into the game.
As much as he tried to concentrate on the paper he'd tried to study for almost the past hour and instead it felt as if he was trying to read the worlds most elaborate manual on power tools. Phil's cute chuckles in the background continued to throw him off and he kept looking up at him quickly, than glancing back at his paper, but every time he did, it just made it even harder to focus on the sheets of paper sitting in his lap.
"THAT'S IT!"
Phil jumped and looked over to Dan
"Dan, what's wrong..?" Asked Phil, looking over to Dan with concern.
" I can't do it anymore, and I won't! They-they can't make me!" Dan shouted to himself.
"Dan, what are you rambling on about?" Phil's concern never leaving his eyes.
"They can't make me take my exams. I won't do it," Dan stated stubbornly.
"But Dan, you have to them, you know this"
"No I don't, I'm just- I'm tired of it! Uni is stressing the living hell out of me and... I can't to it anymore..." Dan whimpered out the last part as he started tearing up.
As soon as phil heard this he stood up and walked over to his friend and put a hand on his shoulder.
"Dan.. please calm down..," he said as he gave a reassuring smile and pulled him in for a light hug but Dan hugged harder. ' I guess he just needed a hug ' Phil thought to himself as he smiled and hugged Daniel.
After about 20 minutes of hugging the two sat down on the kitchen floor discussing ways to relax.
"Would you like some chocolate? Ice Cream? Maybe a Buffy marathon..?" Phil suggested while having an arm on Dan, who was rocking back and forth. Dan nodded as Phil stood to get everything ready and then sat and put on Buffy. Phil (as usual) got completely sucked into the show and didn't notice Dan staring longingly and realizing how great of a friend Phil has always been to him and.. maybe that was what Dan loved most about him. The way he cares for him when anything is wrong, and how he seems to put him first about 80% of the time (the 20% left is for his love of his lion plush)
"Dan... what are you staring at me for?" Phil asked with an adorable smirk.
Dan blushed and just stuttered that it was nothing but he knew now it was Phil staring at him oddly.
"You sure?" His lion crazed friend asked.
Dan just smiled and nodded as he watched Buffy but Phil continued to look at him. Eventually Dan looked at phil again and noticed that Phil was blushing immensely and was staring at his mouth.
"Ph-phil..?"
"Yeah?" Phil asked without looking away from his lips.
" I love you, please don't hate me," Dan stated quickly as he lent in and kissed phil softly, but moved back quickly, hoping phil wouldn't be gross out that his roommate just kissed him. But as Dan began to move back, Phil ran his fingers through Dan's hair and pulled him back into him and kissed him rougher.
"I..Love..... you too," Phil said between kisses.
Dan's eyes widened, but shut after a few seconds and his stress about his exams began to drift away•
