A different christmas //PHAN\\ (boyxboy)

chapter 19

*DANS POV*
around 8am diana and carly show up.
"merry christmas!!" diana's friendly smile greets us, she was there with her jazz hands out, wearing a bright pink wooly jumper with a design of a christmas tree, along with her bright blue skinny jeans and her white and blue striped beanie. she looked quite colourful.
beside her was who mustve been her sister carly who was staring down at her smart phone. she was wearing a white t-shirt with a design of plain font reading "merry christmas"
she was wearing a grey blazer on top of that and some grey skinny jeans to match.
shr looked up for a quick moment to flash a smile and wave but then her attrntion went straight back to her phone typing away.
"merry christmas diana! merry christmas carl y! nice to meet you I'm Phil!" Phil greeted her and pulled Diana in for a hug.
Diana pulled me in for a hug after that but she quickly pulled away when she heard me groan in pain.
"Oops! Sorry! Your ribs! My bad!!" She brought her hands to her mouth in shock.
"Anyway yes this is Carly.." She turned to her sister who refused to show her eyes.
"Merry Christmas," she said, it was so clear she wasn't happy to be here.
"Why don't you come in??" Phil stepped back bringing a welcome.
The two girls stepped in and sat down on the couch where Phil and I once were.
Phil sat down beside them, "sorry about my quietness today.." He apologised which was strange because he wasn't quiet at all, but I guess this was quiet for him, "we havnt really slept all night!" He giggled in the cute Phil way.
"But we made cookies!" I exclaimed being my number one excitement of the day so far.
"Wait you havnt slept?? Dan are you alright?? Have you been in any pain!?" Diana began to freak but I calmed her quick anough handing her a cookie shaped as a snowman.
"Its alright Diana its okay we just weren't tired and... We made cookies!" I exclaimed once more.
Diana took it and chewed it down quickly, "thanks Dan it tastes great!" Diana responded causing me to smile with pride.
"Do you want some?" I offered Carly hoping to get a word out of herbut she just shook her head and smiled.
You'd think someone who wants to be a councillor would be a lot friendlier.

We sat and talked but Carly's eyes were just glued to the screen of her phone. Nodding or shaking her head from time to time or flashing a little smile.
"Oh Carly mum and dad emailed me they sent through some packages, probably going to show up in the mail tonight. They send lots of love and mum hopes you contact her soon!" Diana stared at her awaiting a response but all Carly did was nod but this time she made a little noise. She said "mhm,"
Diana's facial expression changed, to an expression I wouldn't pick Diana to have. She looked kind of angry.
"You know Carly you're being a real bitch!" Carly finally looked up, I looked to Phil nervously to find he was doing the same, looking for reasurance.
"Its Christmas day! We're here to get along and appreciate our friends! And all you can do is stare at your phone and give us a few grunts every now and again! You're acting like a 13 year old bitch!!"
Carly sat there silently for a moment with her mouth open, her eyes were widened.
"I'm... Sorry everyone... I think I might just go." She was about to get up but I stopped her.
"No please don't go just..."
Diana sat still with her arms crossed, she is such an optimist I just assumed she never got angry...
"Put your phone down.. Let's start over," I smiled at the girl who now seemed so nervous.
I reached my hand out to shake, "I'm Dan Howell, I was once homeless but I've been taken in by my hero.." I looked at Phil, "my lover. He saved me and now... I'm pretty happy. And you are?" I asked looking back to Carly.
Carly straightened up her blazer and cleared her throat, "I am Carly Peterson, I am currently in uni going for my diploma of counsilling. I tend to keep busy because I can't stand being bored..hi" she ended her quite short and descreit description of herself.
We all smiled awkwardly, and I was pretty happy with this situation.
Phil was the one to break the silence, "I just realised we should probably arrange lunch.."
Diana looked at me.
I looked at Phil.
Phil looked at Carly.
Carly looked at Diana.
And surprisingly enough, Diana decided, "pizza?"
Music to my ears..pizza.
"Sounds good!" I shouted with excitement.
Actually perfect for Christmas.
Diana had calmed down at went back to her old self.
"I brang you guys a present... Its only small because I havnt had enough time but.. Here,"
She handed both Phil and I a box each wrapped up in plain pink tissue paper topped with a bright red, shiny bow.
"Awww thanks Diana!" Phil said for the both of us.
Just as my awkward self I said "same goes,"
We opened the presents at the same time and each of them were a box of a variety of chocalates.
"Aw yay chocolate! I gave Diana a little hug.
"It's alright babes!" She said quite comfortably.
