Chapter 15 :D

Hey lovelies ^o^ how are you all? New chapter!!

************Important authors note at the end!!************

//Phil's pov//

I bolted upright. Where was I? Oh wait, on my floor. I look over and see a sleeping Chris, face flushed and hair sticking out in different directions. What the--?

Hang on. I remember.

Sadness, disappointment and anger strikes through my stomach, making me sick. I feel the results of last night crawl up my throat, so I sprint into the nearest bathroom and completely empty my stomach into the toilet. I stay there for a few minutes, feeling dizzy, shaky yet too hot and sweaty. I feel a small hand pat me on the back.

"Mate, you okay?" I hear Chris's voice ring in my ears. I slowly nod. A high pitched ringing noise continues to blare through my ears. Great.

After a while I feel strong enough to stand up. I hobble into the kitchen alongside Chris to find my mom making herself some Porridge and blueberries.

"Good morning sweetie and Chris. I didn't know you stayed over" She smiled.

I open my mouth to say something but shut it straight away as not to throw up.

"It was a very last minute job, but thank you anyway" Chris thankfully said.

"That's fine honey. Phil are you okay? You look very pale?"

"He threw up this morning and has a very high temperature Ms Lester"

"Okay thanks Chris. And you know by now to call me Ellie!"

He smiles at her. "I'd best be off or my Mom will be throwing a fit. Thanks Ellie, Bye Phil, Get well soon!" Chris says as he goes through the hallway and closes the door.

My mum comes over to me and hugs me tightly. "Okay sweetie let's get you in here" She whispers and brings me through into the Living room. I lay down on the sofa and she gently drapes a warm fluffy blue blanket over me. She brings in a red bucket and places it on the floor. Soon later she brings in a glass of water and she pulls down the blinds and turns off the TV, also handing me a hot water bottle.

"Sleep tight honey bunny" she whispers and closes the door from the living room into the hall. I lay there on the sofa for a while before drifting off into a deep sleep.

**time skip 2 hours**

I slowly open my eyes, my vision blurry. I feel just at a perfect warm almost cuddly temperature, my blanket snuggily wrapped around me. I dazily look up, to see my mum reading a magazine in the armchair opposite. She looks up and over at me.

"Sleep well sweetheart?"

I groggily nodded.

"Feel any better?" She asked sweetly

"A little.. My head still hurts a bit" She smiles warmly and passes me a packet of Paracetamol tablets.

"These will help your head" She informs.

I slowly sit upright and sallow down a few tablets.

"So Honey, what's wrong? Did you eat something out of date?"

I shook my head.

"Well then! You must be pregnant!" She joked. I half heartedly smiled and sighed.

"Quite the opposite, actually" I said.

Her face fell.

"Oh dearie!" She exclaimed, rushing over to me and engulfing me in a huge bear hug.

Bear hug.

Don't mention bear to yourself.

"Spill" She demanded.

"Well... I mean.. I don't know how to tell you this but..."

"You're gay?"

My eyes flew up to hers. "W-what?" I choke out

"Well for starters You turned down going out with Jessica Parc, one of the most popular people in your school. You never showed any interest in girls. Oh yeah, and your google search history comes up on my history too, so yeah" she smirks.

Fuck.

"I-it what?" I stutter.

She evilly grins.

I shake my head. "Well you see... Me and Dan-"

"Dan and I"

I rolled my eyes.

"Dan and I" I say sarcastically "Were together.."

I told her everything. From the day of the lightning storm up until he cheated on me. When I was finished she wrapped me up in a huge hug.

"Does Dan know that you know?" She asks after a few moments.

"No, Well I don't think so anyway."

"Phil, I'm not going to tell you what to do. I know from experience that your strongest gut feeling is always right. But again from my experience I think you should make sure he knows you know. Otherwise He'll think you don't know and might try to continue a relationship, and then you'd have to say well actually no, I know what you did- and that might be awkward. Maybe see if Chris can tell him, you boys get on great. Although it does seem out of character for Dan, Anytime I've met him he's always been so innocent, caring, loving and reliable. Was never a bother. I could tell you boys were a bit more than friends, you were practically attached at the hip! I don't want him hurting you though- you're my little Phil. I know I have Martyn, but he's hardly in the house anymore and I only get a few words out of him when I do see him. It hurts sometimes. But I need you to think. When Dan finds out you know, He will probably want to explain. If I were in that situation, I'd let him explain. It won't change anything, but it's better to know the truth don't you think? I'm sorry Phil, I really am." She spoke gently to me.

I sigh and hang my head.

"My little boys getting all mature" I hear my mother say quietly.

"Don't leave me mum."

"Never honey" she says and takes my shaky hand and squeezes it. "How about we get you to bed, huh? It getting late and you need sleep!" She exclaims, suddenly bursting with enthusiasm.

I laugh a little and nod my head. I lift up the blanket and hot water bottle and start walking up the stairs.

"Thanks mum!"
