Best Friends Girlfriend || d.h

Chapter 1-

Dan's POV

It was about 6pm. Not dark; not necessarily light. It wasn't cold but it wasn't exactly warm either. I was taking a walk to my local shops, in the usual clothes that consist of black skinny jeans; half baggy top; hoodie; trainers. I had my ear phones in as I walked.

I admired the view, the trees, the leaves waving in the wind, the silence of the street. There was no one about, the area looked pretty abandoned, no this wasn't normal but I wasn't complaining. As I walked across the large plain of grass I noticed a girl who looked about my age walking a dog. A jack Russell. Blonde hair; blue eyes. She was in trainers, a vest top, a hoodie and what seemed to be Cookie Monster pyjama pants. I scoffed to myself.

She has Phil's style.

She was cute, kept her head down as she walked past. I glanced at her a couple of times, grinning at her blushing face. I thought she recognised me, I mean I'm all over the Internet... She turned and went to go the other way. At this point I had slowed down a lot;

Fuck sake Dan stop staring...

I was about to turn away after realising how creepy I must've seemed when she stumbled over what looked like nothing. The dog ran from beneath her feet as I bit my lip in my best attempt to not piss myself.

*time skip*

I begin walking home after buying the basics in the shop. I walk in the house and throw myself on my sofa, pull my laptop off of the side and open it. Just as I was logging in I hear Phil come down the stairs.

"Hey."

"Hey."

"I was thinking, we haven't done a Sims video in a while and we need to upload a new video to the gaming channel." I sighed and looked at my laptop. "Okay, sure..."

"People have been complaining that we don't play Dil that much."

I grinned at him as he notices what he said.

"N-Not like that! You know, like playing the sims. Like interacting."

I chuckled,

"Dan!"

"Alright, fine, I'll go take a quick shower, you can set things up?"

"Leave it to me!" Phil did a salute which I give him a weird look for before running up the stairs and into the bathroom. After my shower, I made my way to the gaming room. I sat on the sofa next to Phil as he focused the camera. I loaded up the Sims and the screen recorder.

"Okay, we're starting in... 3. 2. 1... Hi!"

"Hello Dan and Phil Games Humans and Secret Lizards!"

I looked at the camera, back at him and then the camera again.

"Secret Lizards.."

"There may be secret Lizards watching this. You never know. Keep them on your good side." Phil pointed to the camera, as if he was giving a life lesson. He pretended to be a lizard for a few moments before pointing out the DDR Pad that I bought off of Ebay. We talked about how it's exercise so we'd rather not do a video, although we probably would, and continued to play Sims.

Throughout the video, Dil goes to the gym, goes to the library, had a steamy shower and gets his first kiss! (Which Phil chose to do because there was a llama hedge behind and it would be perfect because llamas)

"Right...Pfftt...pfftt..." I started making weird noises, still not really believing the fact that Dil might just be getting a girlfriend.

"That's a good time to end it." Phil stated, looking at me for approval before looking at the camera.

"Pfftt...okay." I grinned, showing my dimples, looking at the camera. "It happened. Dil had a kiss."

"He had a kiss!" Phil interrupted, completely copying what I said, but hey..

"Could this actually be going somewhere unlike all of the countless disappointments in his life."

Phil decided to state, like a parent, that they're not actually dating yet and that he could still ruin everything.

Such a Phil thing to do.

We say our goodbyes and do our outro, turn off the camera and relax for a minute. There was a dull silence in the room like neither of us knew what to say, you could hear the clocks ticking in our heads.

"Hey Phil..."

He looked at me out of curiosity. I awkwardly shuffle into a up-right position and take a deep breath.

"Can I tell you something?"

"Sure?" I stared solidly at the ground.

"When I went to the shop, I saw this girl. She was cute... I mean, not just cute, like, I felt immediately attracted to her. I couldn't stop grinning and- well- uh- like- I got flutters in my belly... I don't know her name or anything, we only really passed by but- I don't know..."

Phil looked at me with some fan-boy-ish grin on his face. I stared blankly at him, waiting for him to say something. He huffs and giggles before replying, "Well, if you saw her on your way to the shops then surely she lives nearby, which means there's a chance that you'll see her again-"

"But what if it was just one of them 'in the moment' things? I don't want to over-think it but-"

"DAN!"

I gazed in shock, it's not like Phil to butt in and shout over me... He's too polite...

"Sorry for interrupting... Well, if you do ever see her again, and you talk to her, and you don't feel the same then fair enough. It seems like you had an immediate click, and usually that goes well."

"Yeah. She had Cookie Monster pants too, like yours."

Phil grinned. "Pyjamas?"

"Yeah... She seemed very comfortable..."

"Well then I think this will go GRAND!" I give him the 'eh?' Look and he laughed at how silly he was. With it still racking my mind, I got up and decided to try distract myself by cleaning up the set-up.

"I'll deal with this, you go make coffee or something and I'll be down in a bit to watch Netflix."

"Okay." He got up and left. I sighed to myself. 

If only....
