"Call me tomorrow Philly, okay?"

Izzy sent a warm smile to phil and squeezed his arm

"Love ya Iz"

"You too Philly"

These words shocked me slightly and I looked over at PJ expecting him to be anooyed but his face was only filled with a look of joy

"Bye Phil, Cya Dan"

Izzy skipped Back over to PJ and took his hand.. They began walking towards the door where Izzy seemed to hesitate for a moment before walking over to me and giving me a light hug which i certainly wasn't expecting. When she pulled back, she had a tiny smile on her face.

"Bye dan" the girl mumbled before rushing out of the door, followed by PJ who still didn't seem dazed by her strange behaviour.

I sat still for a moment before Phil coughed and I turned around, not daring to look him in the eyes.

"Dan we really need to talk"

I'd heard these words alot in my lifetime but I think this was the first time I was actually glad they were being spoken. I needed somebody to talk to.

"Yeah, yeah we do...where do you wanna start?"

Phil rubbed the bed sheets between his fingers and for the first time in a long time, the silence was awkward. It had never been awkward with him, it always felt so comfortable like words would ruin the atmosphere but now, it was tense. awkward.

"Do you still like me?" he blurted out. Though his gaze was directed at the duvet, i could see his cheeks flashing red.

"Of course I do Phil. I never stopped liking you. Love is probably a better word. Definitely a better word"

I almost regretted the words but it was the right thing, I had to tell the truth if I wanted it back.

"Oh"

Oh? what did that mean? Did he like me back?

"D-do you like me?"

"I don't want to"

"Does that mean you do?"

"I don't even know Dan, can we just move onto the important stuff?"

I opened my mouth to say something but managed to hold back. Of course this was fucking important, I mean, it's not like we were in love or anything.

"Yes, let's. I want the truth Phil, why are you in here? - Don't give me that bullshit about checkups."

Phil sighed and finally looked up at me, his blue eyes making my stomach churn

"I cant tell you Dan"

"What, why?"

"Because I dont trust you"

This is so short I apologise
