Rachel lugged the box of her clothes from the car, as her arms ached, in a familiar pain. Suddenly the weight was lightened, her tiresome expression replaced with a loving one, her eyes sparkling. She looked up, meeting with her boyfriend's soft bluish green eyes. "Need some help there?" Phil smiled, gently lifting the box off of her petite body with ease. He gently placed it on the ground, turning to Rachel with a smile. "Thank you," She was almost in tears , her heart swelling at the first time she and Phil met. Phil blushes and spoke again, his hand gently grazing her cheek. "I'm Phil, what's your name?" Rachel couldn't handle it any more, curling her arms around his neck, getting on her tip toes to meet his lips.

Meanwhile, inside sat Dan and Sage in their new, decorated room. Unlike the other two, who had gone to sleep at half seven, tired from all of the moving, Dan and Sage stayed up and planned, ordered, decorated and painted their new shared room. They had painted one wall, a charcoal black, leaving the others grey and white, using the black to complement the many band posters that they had strung up on the wall. Also on the black wall, they had hung a pin-up board, where pictures of them at Hawaii, in the fair, and at the beach. They had bought a simple black wooden double bed, and kept Dan's black and grey duvet, adorning the bed with throw pillows, including one shaped and patterned like a pizza, and Dan's giant Totoro plush. They also installed a small flat screen TV, their large collection of movies, animes and video games, stored in the dark wooden cupboard underneath, facing the bed. In one corner they had a large black desk, fitting two chairs. There on the desk sat one apple desktop and Sage's Mac Air.

They had chosen a modern house, near their old apartments, near the city. It was double story, and from the savings from Sage and Rachel, and Dan and Phil's youtube money, they had more than enough to buy the perfect house for the four of them. (Picture of house on the side bar) The bathrooms were quite modern, one downstairs with a toilet and shower, and two upstairs, both with showers and baths. The dining room and living room were separated by a thin half wall, and the kitchen was just next to the dining room. There was also a games room/theatre and a spare bedroom, just down the hallway next to the staircase. Both Sage and Dan's and Rachel and Phil's bedrooms were upstairs, and so was a small sitting room, adorned with modern white couches and fluffy carpets. As Rachel had recently gotten a job as an interior designer, she had made the house her showcase for eager customers, all of them mightily impressed with her handiwork. Sage took a different career path, and became a Visual Arts major, at the university down the road. She had been working on a few pieces, and after encouragement from friends and family, she decided to put them up for sale, all 4 of them selling almost immediately, at extremely high prices. Despite her happy life now, Sage's work was dark and depressing, sketching alone figures, and dark shadows looming everywhere, reflective of her tough childhood. There was also an opportunity for a Youtube career, after the gaming video with Dan a few months back, the comments had been so supportive of her, catching her charisma, humour and sarcasm, and practically begging her to make her own channel.

Phil had long since introduced Rachel as his girlfriend to his subscribers, and the two were getting overwhelming support and love. Dan and Sage didn't even have to, as the ships and fanfics about them were building steadily. Some people were still hooked on phan, but phachel and dage had inspired a new phandom, stronger than any other.

"Saaaageee," Dan moaned as she beat him in yet another round of CoD. "Can't you go easy on me or something," He whined, as Sage swatted at him playfully. "Nope," She smiled, kissing him on the nose. Dan took this opportunity to tackle her off the bean bag, and onto the soft carpeted floor, rolling on top of her, and pinning her arms to the floor. Sage laughed and kissed her boyfriend passionately, knowing his weakness. Dan, getting distracted in the heated kiss, loosened his grip on Sage's arms, and she flipped him over, pinning him down to the floor. "Gotcha," She smirked, as she was soon pulled to the ground. They continued play fighting, until one gave up and cuddled the other. "Dannn," Sage looked up at her loving boyfriend. "Yeh babe," He spoke, sleepily running his hands through his mussled up hair. "I-I love you k?" She snuggled deeper into him. Dan smiled, and held her tighter, murmuring the same three words softly into her ear. They fell asleep like that, the two cocooned in each others warmth.

Phil woke early the next morning in his and Rachel's new room, smelling of paint and new furniture. Phil gently rolled over to check his phone, the bright screen read '7:48' Phil turned back over to face his sleeping girlfriend, and constructed a plan. Breakfast in bed! He quickly showered and threw on some dark jeans, and a plaid shirt, quickly slipping his feet into his converse. Soon he trotted downstairs, trying to be a quiet as possible as he went into the kitchen to start preparing breakfast. Sage awoke shortly after, hearing the clatter in the kitchen and found her self in the games room, on the sofa, cuddled up in Dan's arms.
Phil grabbed a tray and placed the array of foods onto it then padded into his amd Rachels room.
"Rach, I brought breakfast" He whispered setting the tray down and she rolled over, blinking sleepily then with a murmured "Ughhh" she sat up and smiled brightly at Phil.
"You're too cute" she said flicking him gently then grabbing the crossaint and swallowing a bite hungrily. Phil swiped bites from the plate and Rachel and him soon finished it collapsing back down on the bed.
"Hey Phil, guess what."
"What?"
"Your mum,"
Rachel winked mischievously and laughed manically at her own joke, Phil shaking his head at his girlfriend's adorable randomness, and began tickling her sides. She gently leaned in as their lips met, before long 10 minutes had passed, and they decided to get out of bed and head to the games room, random chatter flowing smoothly between the pair, as they descended down the stairs.

Hey guys! We're back! It's almost the end of semester two, so the holidays are coming up! Yayy, more frequent posting, and hopefully, juicier plots... hmm we think it's prime time for the return of some certain people, just to jazz things up a bit... *wink wink*

Love always,

[Ish] and {Cacki}
