Phil's POV
-
Later that night, at the dinner table, my mum decides to strike up conversation.
"How was your first day at school, Phil?"
"It was good," I tell her.
"Did Dan help you with getting around?" She asks.
"Yeah. Dan and I actually made this plan that we'd pretend not to know each other, though. It was his plan, I have no idea what his intentions are for it, I'm just going along," I say.
"It sounds like a fun plan," my mum replies.
"Yeah, it was quite interesting. We were talking in English and the teacher made Dan take me on a tour so that was cool I guess," I tell her.
"Did you get any homework today?" My dad asks.
"Yeah, I got some maths homework. My English teacher said she'll be catching me up in class tomorrow," I say.
"Well, I hope you have a nice time at the school. Did you make any friends?" My dad asks another question.
"If you look at it from the plan side, I made three, but Dan doesn't really count. Dan introduced me to his friends, Chris and Pj though. They seem cool," I tell my dad.
"That's good to hear. Do you have any classes with any of them?" My mum asks.
"No, but Dan and I have all our classes together," I tell them.
"Well, you got lucky," my dad says.
"I sure did," I say.

After dinner I go up to my room and sit down at my desk, pulling out my maths homework.
About 10 minutes into my homework my brother walks into my room.
"Phil, mum says there's someone at the door for you, she didn't tell me who, though," my brother says.
"Okay, thanks Nick," I reply.
Who would be coming to my house at 8:30pm to talk to me?
I walk to the door and open it up.
"Hello?" I say, not looking up from my phone.
"Hi," I hear a familiar voice say.
"Oh, hi Dan," I greet, pulling him into a hug. "What's up?" I ask.
"Um, could you help me with the maths homework?" He asks shyly.
"Dan, you don't need to be shy. And yes, I just started working on mine," I tell him.
"Okay, thanks," he says.
I walk up to my room and pull an extra chair to the desk so Dan can sit.
"What don't you understand?" I ask kindly.
"I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, I'm going through all the steps the teacher taught, but I'm not getting the right answer," he tells me.
"Okay, well let's look at the first question and I'll explain it to you," I say.
Halfway through me teaching him, I notice he's not really paying attention.
"Dan? Dan, are you okay?" I ask him, worriedly.
"What? Yeah, I'm fine," he says.
"No, you're not! Tell me what's wrong!"
"Nothing is wrong, Phil,"
"Dan, please. I've known you for four years. Something is wrong,"
"Okay, okay," he sighs. "I came over here to get help because my parents got mad at me and called me stupid for not being able to do the homework on my own. Then I started thinking about how it isn't normal to have to get someone to help you for your homework. I've never been able to do my maths homework on my own, and now I have realized how extremely stupid I am," he tells me.
"Dan, you're not stupid. You're smart, and talented and beautiful. Maths just isn't your strong spot. Everyone has a weak spot. And your parents do not have the right to call you stupid. They didn't mean it. They probably had stuff going on at work that was stressing them out or something," I say.
"I love you," he says quietly.
"I love you, too," I reply, kissing the tears off his cheeks.
"Okay, well I'm going to go back home now," he tells me.
"Can't you stay for a little bit?" I ask.
"Sure," he sighs, laying down on my bed.
I get onto my bed and snuggle up to him.
"Dan, I don't think words could describe how much I fucking love you," I say.
"Well, you just swore so that's something," he says.
"Hey! Way to ruin the moment," I reply.
"I lo-" I cut him off by kissing him again, taking the kiss deeper, showing him how much I truly love him.
We pull apart smiling.
"You're beautfiul,"
"And you are too," he replies.
"Okay, you should probably go now. See you at school tomorrow, love you,"I say, pecking his lips.
"Bye, Phil. Love you, too," he says, walking out my door.
That boy is perfect.

Dan's POV
-
It was Friday now, Phil and I got through a week of pretending to be friends.
My mum had to borrow my car today as hers was broken, so I had to walk home.
I was walking home with Chris, Pj, and Phil, and I stopped outside my house.
"Well, this is my stop, bye guys," I say.
"Bye!" Phil says, walking to his house and letting himself in.
"Chris, Pj? Why are you still here? And why are you staring at me?"
"Dan, honey. We know that you're gay. And the looks you and Phil have been giving each other make it seem like you're more than friends," Chris starts.
"What are you on about?" I ask.
"You and Phil keep looking at each other like you've been in love for years," Pj says.
Well shit. Guess I need to be more careful.
"Are you serious guys? I've known Phil for a week, he's just my friend," I tell them.
"Sooner or later he'll be more," Chris teases, walking off with Pj.
More like he's been my boyfriend for two years but no one knows that yet.
I walk into the house and greet my mum.
"Hey, mum,"
"Hi, Dan. How was school?"
"It was good I guess,"
"My car is fixed so you can use your car again, thanks for letting me borrow yours," she says.
"No problem," I reply.
"Would you like to invite Chris and Pj to sleepover tonight?" She asks.
"Sure, sounds like fun. Can I invite Phil, too?" I ask.
"Of course. Do Chris and Pj know about you and Phil?" My mum asks.
"They both know that we're gay, but they don't know that we're together," I tell her.
"When do you plan on telling them?" She asks.
"I don't know. It might be a bit hard to explain but they'll know eventually," I say.
"Well, you can decide when you and Phil want to tell them. Go text them now and ask if they're coming. We'll have pizza for dinner," she tells me.

Dan: want to sleep over tonight? I'm inviting Chris and Pj over too
Phil: sure! When should I come?
Dan: how about 4:00?
Phil: sounds good, see you in an hour <3
Dan: love you
Phil: love you, too

Dan: want to sleep over tonight? I'm inviting Chris and Phil over too, Phil already said yes
Pj: yeah sure, sounds like fun
Dan: be here by 4:00 please
Pj: okay

Dan: want to come over tonight? I invited Pj and Phil, they're coming
Chris: sounds good, sure!
Dan: be here at 4:00 please
Chris: okay, see you soon

"Incoming!" Someone screams, jumping on top of me.
"Oh my god Phil, you scared me!" I exclaim, pecking him on the lips quickly.
"Sorry, just thought it would be funny, which it was," he says.
"Okay, now get off of me because if Pj and Chris come in with us like this, we're going to have a hard time explaining," I say.
"Oh, yeah. I can hear them walking up the stairs now," Phil says rolling over and laying on my bed beside me.
"Hello," I hear Chris say, dragging out the 'o' in the word.
"Hi guys," Phil and I say.
"When did you get here Phil?" Pj asks.
"Like half a minute ago. Why does that matter?" He asks.
"It doesn't, I just wanted to know," Pj replies, sending a smirk my way.
Of course they thought we were making out or something.

"Boys! Pizza is here! Come and get it!" My dad calls.
We all run down stairs and take the boxes of pizza, taking them back up to my room.

We spend the rest of the night watching movies and playing video games until my mum comes in.
"Hey guys, it turns out one of the air mattresses has a hole in it, so there's only a double air mattress and Dan's bed. Two of you can be in Dan's bed, and two of you can share the mattress. I hope you guys don't mind," my mum tells us.
"That's fine mum," I say.
"Okay, you guys should get settled into bed now, here's the air mattress," she tells us, pulling the mattress into my room and putting it on the floor beside my bed.
"Goodnight, mum," I say.
"Goodnight," the others say.
"Okay who's sharing with who?" Chris asks when my mum shuts the door.
"Um, Phil can share my bed with me and you and Pj can share the mattress," I offer.
"Okay," they agree.
We all strip down into our boxers and settle into bed.
"Wow, Dan and Phil getting it on," Chris says.
"I could say the same thing for you and Pj," I reply.
"Yeah, but we're straight," Pj says.
"Whatever," I scoff.
"Besides, I wouldn't do anything with Dan in bed, I have a boy-" Phil cuts himself off, realizing his mistake.
"What's that, Phil? You have a boyfriend? Is that what you were saying?" Chris asks.
Phil looks at me frantically, not knowing what to say, I squeeze his hand under the covers, telling him it's okay to tell them. I knew we wouldn't be able to keep it in from them for long.
"Yes, I actually do have a boyfriend," Phil tells them.
"Oh my god! Does he go to our school?" Pj asks.
"Yes, he does," Phil says.
"Well tell us who it is," Chris says.
"It's me," Dan says.
"I knew it!" Chris exclaims.
"But seriously? After only a week?" Pj asks.
"Not really a week," Phil tells them.
"What?" Chris asks, confused.
"Long story short, Phil and I have known each other for four years. We've been together for two years now," I tell them.
"How the heck did you guys meet?" Pj asks.
"That's a story for later," Phil says.
"Whatever, I ship it," Chris says.
"Night, you goofs," I say, pecking Phil's lips then falling asleep.
