Phil wasn't listening to what Chris had to say. He was still in a sad state as he watched Dan eating lunch with Pj and Mercadies. Mercadies looked over at Phil and motioned over. Phil awkwardly stood up and made his way to the table.
"Hey guys, can Phil sit with us?" She asked and Dan instantly nodded. Phil awkwardly sat down.
" So Phil, are you going to the dance?"
Dan instantly looked interested as Phil replied, "I was thinking about going with Connor actually"
Dan's heart shattered instantly. Connor? Phil knew Dan still liked him, right?
Mercadies glanced at Dan before looking back over at Phil, "R-really? Connor? Why not someone like Dan, he is kind of your type"
Phil rolled his eyes, "Yeah, but he's been an asshole, to me ever since I met him. Even though he's gay, he still acts like a homophobic dick. And not to mention that he pretended to like me, probably just to make fun of me"
Dan had tears in his eyes but wasn't looking at Phil so that he could tell. Dan abruptly stood up and rushed out of the cafeteria. He found himself crouched in the hall and he heard a voice.
"Dan? Dan Howell?" He knew that voice, "Dan, it's Connor, what's the matter"
When Dan looked up and had tears in his eyes he gave a death glare to Connor.
"You know just crying because the guy I love doesn't get that I love him, and wants to ask you to the dance!" Dan yelled and Connor looked scared.
"Um... I'm sorry, I have no idea who you're talking about"
"Philip Micheal Lester" Dan groaned out.
Connor slowly nodded, "Well, um... I don't know what to say, Phil's great and all, but I'm being pushed away by Troye since he's dating Tyler"
Dan looked confused, "You like Troye?"
Connor nodded blushing, "I-uh gotta go, nice talking with you"
And just like that Dan was left alone again, tears still slipping down his face making his eyes slightly lighter than normal. His head now baried in his arms again.
He felt small arms wrapping around him and looked up, Mercadies.
"Hey, I know this is hard, but we can always get you to forget about him" Mercadies smiled.
"No, because, you're his best friend and I just told Connor that... I'm in love with him"
"What?" Asked Phil from the entrance of the hall way, bag now dropped onto the floor next to him.
Sorry that this took forever!
