We Met On The Internet (Phan)

Chapter 2

Phil's POV
-
Dan and I watched a movie, I didn't know what it was though. Dan was distracting me a lot.

"Hey, Phil?"
"Yes, Dan?"
"Kiss me," he says.
"Dan, you could've just kissed me," I tell him.
"I know, but I didn't want to surprise you," he replies.
"You wouldn't have surprised me, you kiss me a lot," I say.
"I know, I know," he sighs, pulling my neck and attaching our lips.

He pulls my body closer to his so that there's no space in between us. "Imagine if we lived close to each other," he whispers.
"That would be amazing," I whisper back.
"Just like you," he compliments.
"Yeah, well you're not so amazing right now. Come back and kiss me," I tell him, attaching our lips once again.

Half a minute later we are pulled apart by Dan's younger sister.
"You guys are cute and all, but Mum needs you and Phil to go get ingredients for dinner from the grocery store," his sister says.
"Wow, you're brave to pull us apart, Charlotte," Dan tells his sister, chuckling.
"I didn't want to watch you any longer," she scoffs, "get a room."
"For your information, you're the one in my room," Dan replies with some sass.
"Yeah, whatever. Here's the list of things mum needs," she replies, shoving the list into Dan's hand.
"Fine, fine," Dan says, getting up and walking out his room door.

"I don't know why my mum can't go get the ingredients," Dan complains, starting the car.
"Well, she's probably cleaning around the house or something," I say.
"Well, she could've gotten my sister to go then. I'm always the one to go run errands for my parents," he complains again, pulling out of his driveway.
"Dan, your sister is 14. I don't think your mum or even you would have the heart to make her walk there and back," I tell him.
"Yeah, I guess you're right. Well at least I'm not alone this time!" He says, poking me in the stomach.
"Hey! You know I'm ticklish!" I exclaim.
"That's exactly why I poked you, love," he teases.
I take his Panic! At The Disco CD out of a little storage compartment in the door of his car and put it in the CD player. We immediately start singing along, badly, might I add to I Write Sins Not Tragedies.

"Oh, well imagine, as I'm pacing the pews in a church corridor, and I can't help but to hear, no I can't help but to hear an exchaning of words. What a beautiful wedding! What a beautiful wedding says a bridesmaid to a waiter, yes but what a shame, what a shame the poor groom's bride is a whore!" We sing in unison, giggling at how bad we sounded. (Let's play a game called how many times can I add P!ATD into my phanfics?)

By the end of the song we had reached the grocery store. Dan opens his car door, me following, and we walk inside.

We go to the aisle with all the bags of crisps and popcorn, as Dan said there was no popcorn left at his house. Apparently that was a sin.
"Do you want..." Dan trails off.

"Oh my god! Hi Dan!" A girl comes up, hugging him.
"Ellie, please don't hug me," he tells the girl that is apparently called Ellie.
"Why not?" She says, pouting.
"Because I'd rather not hug you," he says.
"Wow, feisty little boy," she says.
"Yeah, whatever. What do you want?" He asks her.
"Is this the guy that's keeping you from going to the party?" She asks, motioning her hand towards me.

Oh, it's that girl that texted Dan earlier.

"Um, yes," Dan answers.
"You're kind of cute," she says to me, trailing her finger up my arm. "Why don't you convince Dan to come?"
"Dan has already told you he doesn't want to go to the party. I don't want to go either," I tell her defensively.
"Why? I bet you could get some cute girl in bed, you're hot," she says.
I snort at the thought of having sex with a girl.
"I also kindly ask you to stop flirting with me, as I'm gay and I have a boyfriend," I tell her.
"Well, I still have Dan to go after," she mutters.
"In your dreams, Ellie," Dan says, grabbing my elbow and walking off.

"Wow, Phil! I never knew you had it in you to be that rude to someone," Dan says to me, laughing.
"Yeah, well. I have practice with all the girls at my school like that, I just don't tell them I'm gay," I tell him.
"Well, I think we have all the things my mum asked for, let's go," he replies, leading me to the register and paying.

"Hey mum, here's the stuff you asked for," Dan says to his mum, putting the bag on the counter.
"Thanks, boys. Would you guys like some lunch?" She asks.
"Yes, please," Dan says looking over at me.
"Yes, please," I tell her.
"Okay! Pizza alright, boys?" She offers.
"Pizza is very alright," Dan says.
"I agree," I say.

***time skip to the next night

"Okay, Phil. I have a job for you," Dan tells me, walking into his room. We just had dinner, his mum is a great cook.
"Well it better not take long, I have to leave soon," I say, sadly.
"It won't, don't worry. Now, take this pen and this paper and write your name on it, please," he tells me, handing the paper to me.
"Why?" I ask.
"Because I want something to hold that you've touched," he says shyly.
"Um, okay? I mean, you have some of my t-shirts and stuff but okay," I say, writing my name with a heart beside it.
"Thanks. Let's get you to the train station now," he says.

We step onto the platform that my train will come and Dan kisses me on the lips.
"Bye. Have a safe trip home," he says, pecking me one more time and letting go of my hand.
"Love you," I say.
"Love you, too," he replies.
Even though we've had to depart from each other many times, it's still hard. We won't get to see each other for another month.
And with that, I step onto the train, while Dan walks back to his car.

Later that night, I walk into the house and am greeted by my parents.
"Hi, Phil! How was your time with Dan?" My mum asks.
"Good," I tell her.
"Phil, we have some good news to tell you, I'm sure you'll be very happy about it. It somewhat involves Dan, too. We don't want him to know quite yet, though," my dad says to me, smiling.
"Um, okay?" I say, a little confused as to what's going on.
"Nick! Come downstairs please!" My mum calls to my little brother.
"Okay!" He yells back. Moments later, he's down the stairs and sitting beside me, in front of our parents.
"We're moving, boys," my dad says.
"What the heck? How is this good? Why should I be happy? Where are we moving?" I ask, scared that we'll be moving far away.
"Well, Phil. If you would've let me continue, I could've told you that we're moving to London," my dad tells me.
"Really? Oh my god, yay!" I say.
"Why is Phil so happy about this?" My six year old brother asks my mum.
"Because his boyfriend lives there, honey," my mum tells him.
"Ah," he says.
"Even better, Phil," my mum starts, "we're moving onto Dan's street, we'll be living three houses down from him. You guys will also be going to the same school."
"Oh my god. I think this is one of the best days of my life!" I exclaim.
"When are we moving?" My brother asks.
"We're moving in a week, Nick. Your mum and I have already started packing up lots of your things, and ours. We're almost ready to move," my dad tells him.
"How did I not notice that you guys were packing things?" I ask.
"I don't know. Ask your boyfriend," Nick teases.
"Is that all?" I ask.
"Only one more thing, you won't be going to school this week as we're giving you both time to pack. Sorry we didn't tell you that Friday was your last day there," my mum tells my brother and I.
"It's okay!" My brother and I say in unison, obviously happy that we get a week away from school.
"That's all for now boys, go to sleep now. Love you," my dad says, kissing us both on our foreheads.
"Oh, Phil, I think it'd be really sweet if you surprised Dan by showing up on his doorstep when we've moved in on Saturday. You can probably get him to help us unpack too," my mum says winking at me.
"Okay! I'll keep it a secret," I say, winking back and walking up the stairs.
I flop onto my bed lazily, pulling out my phone.

Phil: hey babe
Dan: hi
Phil: I'm home!!! :D
Dan: why are you so happy that you're home? Now we're away from each other again :(
Phil: my parents delivered some good news, it put me in a good mood
Dan: oooo what's the good news?
Phil: can't tell you ;) you'll find out in a week
Dan: um okay...
Phil: I'm going to sleep now! Night, love you
Dan: same here, good night. Love you, too
