Uncovering Love (Phan AU)

Uncovering Love

Dan's POV
Talking to Anthony was surprisingly easy. He didn't seem to want to punch me like the rest which was almost unnerving. Anthony didn't pay too much attention or care about the way I looked or dressed or the makeup on my face. It was nice to not be judged outside of my friendship group. I studied the way Anthony stood and talked, just to check there was no sign he was going to beat me up. At points I got so worried he was just here to distract me before today's beating that his mouth was moving but to me no sound came out, I watched him as he spoke words I couldn't hear.
"Dan?"
I was snapped cruelly back into reality by Anthony saying my name.
"Yeah sorry, what did you say?"
"I said, would you like to come and hang out with me and my friends?"
What!? Me? Me and...? No. It couldn't, could it? I considered for a second before replying.
"Yeah sure when?" I coolly (maybe) replied.
The rest was a blur and suddenly I was hanging out with the most popular people in my town on Friday. I told Phil obviously when I saw him in English. I couldn't stand English but I could stand sitting next to Phil. I loved Phil more than life itself, but he was my best friend and he didn't love me back. I got through English, laughing with Phil and doing no work before I could go to lunch and see Chris and PJ.
Phil's POV
As we sat in English, all I did was stare at Dan and his perfect face, and his perfect hair, and his perfectness. We laughed through the lesson as I admired his face when he wasn't looking. At lunch I did as I usually did and out in one earphone to listen to music and talk to my friends. As we walked to the canteen I sang along in my head
May your feet serve you well
And the rest be sent to Hell
Where they always have belonged
Cold hearts brew colder songs
Fate will play us out
With a song of pure romance
Stomp your feet and clap your hands
I hummed to the song and the beat, Brendon Urie singing sounds of angels in my ears. Dan turned to face me sending me a questioning look, I held out an earphone to him which he happily accepted. Dan put the earphone in his ear walking beside me bopping along to he song when it changed to 'Mr. Brightside', I loved shuffle mode. Dan's what you might call dancing caused the earphone to fall out of his ear. We both reached to catch it as he accidentally cupped my hand in his. Dan used his other hand to put the earphone back in his ear, clasping my hand and swinging it beside him. It was a friendly act but it made my heart dance and sing with joy. Our hands melted together as if they were made for one another. I smiled as I looked at our hands. Suddenly, Dan was pulling my arm in the direction of Chris and PJ. I sat down next to my friends as Dan told them about Anthony inviting him to hang out on Friday. My heart kind of broke at his words, I guessed I just didn't like the idea of Dan talking so fondly of someone else. No one knew that I loved Dan, not Chris, not PJ, nobody. I really needed to get over my stupid obsession with him.
Dan's POV
Walking home that day with Phil, he felt kind of distant. It felt like he didn't want to talk to me. The whole way home I tried to see what was up but he brushed it off. In the last 10 minutes before we got to the street we both lived on a slid my hand into Phil's, I knew he liked it when I held his hand. When I got to my door, Phil entered the house next to mine. It was great living next to Phil. Hen we were little we discovered a little hole connecting our rooms through the wall separating our houses so we would slip notes through there. Eventually we set up a string going through the whole connected to the headboard of both of our beds in a circle so that we could attach a note to the string and feed it through the hole (if you don't get this bit comment and I will try to expanding better what the string thing is) we also used to speak through the hole and gradually make it bigger. I could now fit my head and almost my shoulders through it, the hole covered by posters on our walls. When I heard Phil in his room I carefully took the poster off of my wall and pocked my he's through the hole before removing the poster from Phil's wall aswell.
"Phil!" I said as he looked at me,
"Yes Dan?"
"Come over here!" I demanded.
Phil came over to the hole so that our faces were almost touching.
"You know you're my best friend right? And I love you more than anything? Well please don't be mad at me."
Phil then grabbed my far and brought or lips together. I thought nothing of it as we had kissed a load of times before, sometimes we even had little make out sessions but it didn't mean anything. The kissing was 'friendly'. This seemed to be one of or make out sessions.
"Phil you're smaller than me so you can fit through this hole come into my room," I pleaded.
I remove my was from the wall and Phil cloned through carrying the poster behind him and half sticking it to his wall. We put the poster back in my wall as Phil say on my bed. I kissed his lips tenderly.
"Please, don't be mad at me lion."
