Insanity.

Holy shit! What is that??? An update??? No way! Yes way.

(Dan's POV)

It's been a long day. I rushed to Phil's side multiple times to comfort him due to him crying because of his memory loss. Whispering things like "it's okay" and "it's not your fault"

Now, we were relaxing. Playing Mario Kart with Phil leaning onto my chest as he sat in between my legs.

We were on the third lap, I was in first place and about to win when Phil abruptly paused the game. "Phillllll I was about to wiiiin" I pouted, crossing my arms over my chest.

"I just wanted to say something." He started. "Go on." I urged. "Well, I was thinking that this memory loss might not be such a bad thing." He stated. I stared, confused. "How so?"

"Well," he began. "I have more chances. More chances to choose what I want to do with my life. I know that makes no sense but just bear with me. It's like a do-over, in a way. Like when you reboot your laptop. Everything is still how you left it, but you get a fresh start. And the best part? I get to fall in love with you all over again." He finished, looking into my eyes.

"Oh Phil. I love you so much."

"I love you more."

"I love you most."

"Don't start with me, Howell."

"Don't tell me what to do, Lester."

"Shut up."

"Make me." I shot back, staring him down with my daring eyes.

"Sure thing." He replied, flipping over to face me, in a straddling position almost. He leaned in, getting closer and closer until....

BANG. It all happened so fast. A gunshot. Phil falling limp beside me. Me screaming, calling an ambulance as fast as I could. The sirens. The flashing lights. The crying.

Someone had shot right through the office window. Straight into Phil's side. I didn't get into the ambulance with Phil. I couldn't bear to see him like that. I told them to call and tell me to come immediately when he was at the hospital.

His words repeated in my head like a broken record. "...you get a fresh start. And the best part? I get to fall in love with you all over again."

A fresh start.

I get to fall in love with you all over again.

Why do the bad things always happen to the happiest people? What did Phil do to deserve this?! I'm the one who should have lost my memory. Not him. I should have gotten shot. Not him.

I just wanted Phil to have a day. Good or bad. Just a day. A day without all this chaos. A day without all this pain. Just, a day.

"Why. Why. Why. WHY?" I screamed and fell to the floor. Shaking. Sobbing.

Slowly slipping into insanity.

This is short and gross and like a filler but oh whale.

And remember how I said I'd try to make this one happy? Lol.
