HIM (an AmazingPhil fan fiction, Phil Lester)

Try

I stand infront of the mirror checking every inch of my body as I pull at the bottom of the dress. I slide on my charm bracelet and pull on my leather jacket to hide the marks on my arm. Slowly every imperfection begins to stand out, the hair out of place, the smudge of mascara just above my lashes, the dullness of my eyes, no thigh gap. "don't" someone whispers "you're beautiful", it's Phil. I scan the room but I'm still alone. I grab my shoes and walk out of the room and across to Dans door. I quietly knock and within seconds the door is open. Dan is stood in the doorway smiling at me, white shirt undone, black skinny jeans and hair still curly. He gestures for me to come in and walk over to the piano and sit on the seat.

Dan: "you look beautiful" he smiles

I smile down at my hands and shrug. Dan walks over and places his fingers under my chin and tilts my head back so I'm looking him in the eyes.

Dan: "I mean it" he says sternly "Grace Hall you'll have to beat those boys away with a stick. But they'll have to get through me first, have to protect my little sister from the big bad world of London boys" he smiles and walks across his room to plug in his straightners.

I glance at the piano, it really is beautiful. Dan tells me I can play it if I want but I would never be as talented as him. I slowly turn to face the keys and i feel honored. If Dan is the same as he used to be he never allowed anyone to touch his keyboard and now he's letting me play a rather beautiful, expensive looking piano.

I begin quietly playing my favourite piece, Colbie Caillat - Try (video linked, sorry it was the only one that wasn't copyright and would play here). The house goes silent and all that can be heard is my playing and quiet singing. Once I'm finished I wipe the stray tear from my cheek and turn to face Dan. He's silent, watching me with tears in his eyes.

Dan: "that was, beautiful" he smiles

Grace: "it's a very meaningful song" I shrug

Dan: "It was so, sad" he mutters looking almost pained

Grace: "I'm a very sad person" I shrug

Dan: "well hopefully not anymore"

I smile and watch Dan begin to straighten his hair, he must have literally stopped everything to listen to me. My heart warms and i feel my cheeks flush.

Finally Dan is ready and we walk out of his room to find PJ and Chris sitting in the living room. PJ looks like Dan in a white button shirt and black skinny jeans. Whereas Chris is wearing a Gray button shirt and skinny jeans. Once we're all ready to go I slide on my killer heels and begin walking towards the door. Dan leads and i follow on at the back behind PJ so I can lock the door. As we get to the stairs panic sets in. How in holy hell am I going to walk down these stairs without breaking a bone. Just as the thought hits me PJ holds out his hand to help steady me on the way down, almost as if he knew what I was thinking.

I hold his hand down to the last step and as I go to pull my hand away he holds me a little tighter and smiles at me. I lean into him and accept his hand as we walk out of the building.

It probably sounds romantic but it's not, I'm just trying to show PJ as a gentleman :)
