Possession-Phan

Chapter 5

Dan stood, staring at his phone. Was Phil asking him out!? On a date!? Before he was aware of what he was doing his fingers had already typed out a reply Yeah sure x

He waited. And waited. He looked at the clock. 5 minutes had gone by. He groaned. His phone dinged and he leapt for it. See you at 8 ;)

Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck. He had 2 hours, 2 hours to get ready. Oh god, that's no way near enough time! He groaned again. Usually he would call Chris but, well, that was off the table.

He took a deep breath. I can do this.

1 hour later and he was lying on his bed, clothes strewn around him. He had no clothes. Why were his clothes so fugly!? Argh! Dan screamed into his pillow.

55 minutes later, he was ready and just completing the finishing touches to his hair. The doorbell rang and he squeaked in surprise. Dan looked in the mirror and took a deep breath. You can do this.

He opened the door, Phil was wearing jeans and a check shirt and holding a takeaway. What?

"Hey" Phil smiled at him and stepped inside. He looked Dan up and down and grinned. "Oohh, you look fancy, surely you didn't dress up just for me?" He fluttered his eyelashes dramatically and choked a laugh. Of course I dressed up for you, you idiot. I thought we were going out for dinner. Word your fucking texts better! "Ha! Ohhh nooo it's my, uh, cousins wedding and um-" but Phil was already walking towards the lounge. "I'll, um, go get changed."

Dan stood in front of his mirror. It had taken so much stress and effort to do this and for nothing. Angry tears sprung from his eyes. "Dan? You alright?"

"Yeah, yeah I'm fine. Just getting changed." He proceeded to do so and walked back towards the living room. He gasped as he entered, the lights were turned out and the light came from candles, set around the room. Phil sat on the sofa, sorting out the food. He looked up when Dan entered and smiled softly. "Hey."

"Hey" Dan breathed and walked on wobbly legs to the space next to Phil. "What's all this?" he gestured around the room. Phil blushed. "Well I, uh, was gonna take you out but I didn't wanna dissapoint you because I couldn't afford a nice restaurant even though you deserve more so I came up with this but I wasn't sure if you were gonna like it and I wasn't sure if it was gonna work or if you would just think I'm weird so basically-"

"Woah, woah, Phil. Calm down, what do you mean?" Dan chuckled. Phil fidgeted nervously.

"When I asked if you wanted dinner, I meant in a restaurant but I didn't want to disappoint you because I don't have that much money, so I thought I'd do this instead. Am I weird? Is this alright?"

"Yes, yes Phil it's fine but when you said dinner, you mean like a date?"

Phil looked at his lap. "Yeah, like a date."
