Sympathy In The Form of You Crawling Into Bed With Me

Phil POV

Nothing interesting happened when we got home. We had dinner, watched anime, filmed a Sims video then I went to my own bed, leaving Dan to stay awake for who knows how much longer. However, I didn't go to bed to sleep. I went to start planning ways to get him back. I knew it wouldn't be easy but I was willing to do anything, everything and more to get what I wanted. I took out my phone, opened notes and started a list.

About an hour later, I realised that all of my plans were useless. They all involved jealousy, seduction, and a crap-tonne of begging. They were pitiful attempts at plans that nobody could ever fall for and made me look as though I had the maturity of a small child.
I locked my phone and threw it to one side. I sighed and dropped my head to my pillow dramatically. My brain was hurting from thinking so much and before I knew it I was asleep.

I jolted awake. It was still dark in my bedroom. I reached for my phone so that I could check the time, forgetting that I had thrown it away. I groaned and stood up to find it.
As soon as I stood, I heard Dan's bedroom door close. I paused. He had finally gone to bed.  This sparked a thought in my brain. What would happen if I crawled in beside him?
Of course he wouldn't just allow me to sleep beside him without asking questions. I had to be sneaky. I sat back down in bed and waited. Approximately twenty minutes later- give or take five because I counted in my head- I got back up. I walked out my my bedroom slowly with a blank expression on my face. My steps were long and slow and I reached his bedroom quietly. I stood outside his door with my hand lingering over the door handle for a minute, trying to decide if this was a good idea. In the end, I decided it was either this or wait for him to make a move since I was too afraid to.
Finally, I built up enough courage and went along with the somewhat idiotic idea I had planted in my own head. I sloppily opened Dan's bedroom door, without knocking. I felt bad, but if I was to knock, it would give my plan away. My plan? I was going to pretend I was sleepwalking.

"Phil?" Dan asked suddenly as I stood in the doorway, not moving. I couldn't see his face so I don't know what his reaction was, but I stayed silent. The urge to talk was nearly too much but I wouldn't.

"Phil?" He asked again, slightly louder this time. I didn't reply.

"Are you awake?" He questioned.

Still no reply. I started to move towards him at a steady pace. I felt extremely stupid, and I probably was being stupid. Oh well. There was no turning back now.

DAN POV (finally)

What is he doing? Is he asleep? Of course he's asleep, Dan. Either that or he's possessed. Nobody acts like that when they're awake.

Phil started to move closer to my bed. He stood beside it for a few seconds, before bending down and lifting up the duvet. I assumed that he was going to get into the bed, so I moved over without even thinking. It wasn't until I had moved that I knew what I had done. I had basically invited a barely-conscious Phil into my bed even though he didn't know what he was doing. This felt wrong on so many levels, but as soon as I felt the mattress stop under his weight, all of my thoughts went away. I got down under the covers and let Phil's arm drape around me. The uneasy feeling went away. How could something that was probably wrong feel so comforting?

"I missed you." I whispered to Phil, knowing that he wouldn't even hear me.

I fell asleep after a matter of seconds, enjoying being in Phil's arms once again.

PHIL POV

I missed you too. I thought to myself before drifting off into the most peaceful sleep I had had in months.

I was woken up in the morning when I felt Dan move beneath my arm.

"Well this is a surprise." I spoke in a quiet, groggy voice.

Dan chucked. "Yeah, for you and me both. You were sleep walking last night and I didn't want to wake you so I thought I'd just let you stay."
He paused for a second. His expression went from blank to somewhat flustered in a matter of second.
"I'm sorry if you didn't want that. I should've just woken you up. I don't know what I was thi-"

"Dan." I interrupted him. "It's fine. I don't mind. To be honest it was kind of nice." Phil did you actually just say that....

"Yeah I know what you mean." He replied, which brought me a great sense of relief, knowing that he didn't mind that we had shared a bed last night.

We stayed in bed chatting for about half an hour, before getting up to have breakfast and watch the newest American Horror Story Hotel episode.

"Phil I don't care what you say. Asylum was the best season."
Dan and I often argued about which plot from AHS was the best. I thought Murderhouse was better, but he never agreed with me.

"Not a hope." I replied. "Doctor Arden was too creepy. It ruins the season for me."

Dan brought his hand up to cover his eyes. He always did this whenever he thought I had said something ridiculous.
"It's called American Horror Story for a reason, Phil. It's not supposed to be about butterflies and daisies. Besides, Asylum had more Jessica Lange in it and she's amazing."

"Okay, whatever. We'll never settle this. There's no point in even tr-"
I was cut off my Dan's lips touching my own. FINALLY.

A/N: what?! No it hasn't been a month. It's only been three weeks. Shut up.
Okay seriously I honestly am really sorry. I promise it won't happen again and I actually mean it this time. How do you know I'm not lying? There are only 3 or 4 chapters left so I'm not going to let myself do it again for the next three weeks. To make it up to you, I'll have a new chapter in the next few days.... Hopefully.

Ps. 1,000 views? Wow! That's nearly a million!

PPS. Can you tell I have a new obsession with Jessica Lange? She's life.
