Chapter Two: Wimping and Limping

October 2015

"What?"

"Suck my baguette," Cat says happily that she won the game.

Phil a little pissed off says, "I'm not gonna even respond to that." He does a little fake laugh so the fans won't be curious about his reaction.

"I came from Hell, and I'm disgusted by this." Cat laughed at this, and leaned into Dan's shoulder a bit. Jealousy coursed through Phil's veins, so he kept a monotone face up, but a fake scared face came after he heard, "Well, Phil, I'm sorry, but it is definitely time to die."

"No!" I'm already dead, Dan. Phil doesn't say that though, he just continues to make weird animal noises as Dan fake kills him with an ax, and Cat laughing in the background. When Dan stops, he can't help but laugh since it was such a funny situation.

"He's still laughing."

"I'm a ghost, I'm a ghost!" Phil tries to plea as Dan "stabs" him with the ax because of his laughing. "How do you summon away a ghost?"

"You don't summon a demon away, you banish it."

"Shush, Dan" Phil says awkwardly.

"Yeah, you don't get to talk!" Cat couldn't stop laughing as she said that.

"Hey, do you want to get axed?" Oh God, are they flirting in front of me? Phil, this is not the time. You can't edit you being an arse out. "I mean, I'm playing by my own rules here."

"Let's do an exorcist-ism."

"An exorcism-ism"

"Exorcist-ism-ism," Cat jokes as she looks at the camera happily.

"Holy Water!" Phil puts his arms up in a cross type way and pushes dan with his elbows, "Begone foul beast."

"These nerds are getting on my nerves, I'm just gonna leave guys. Okay?"

Cat puts a hand to her heart, "Okay."

Phil's face actually turns sad as he heard Dan say, "I would say, 'It's not you, it's me.' but it's you." Wow, way to just stab me in the heart, a real ax would be less painful. Phil looks at Cat from the corner of his eyes and sees her smiling, this bitch.

After the video was done, Phil was totally annoyed especially since Cat looked so smug during the whole video. It was probably Phil's imagination but he didn't care, he was still better. Yes, it's been three years, but waking up to Daniel James Howell, the sexiest man alive, was not helping. Cat stayed after for just a little while, her, Dan, and Phil sat in the lounge and joked around. Phil was able to act happy and stay along with the conversation, but only because he's had so many years of practice. But the longer this went on, the more hollow Phil felt on the inside.

"Brb," Dan says mid-conversation. "I need to use the restroom."

"Don't be too long." Cat says as Dan unwraps himself from around her.

"I'll try not to." Dan gives her a small smile, then pecks her lips before walking out.

"Aw, you guys are my OTP, I can't help the feels." Phil had long ago learned to cover his pain with unnoticeable sarcasm. While doing so, he was able to make his tears of heart-brokenness seem like tears of joy.

Cat laughed and blushed. "Thanks, Phil." She got closer to him, and Phil tried his hardest not to back away. "You're Dan's best friend and roommate. Can I ask you something personal about him?" She looked antsy to get an answer.
