Part Six: The Realization

"So Phil, what movie do you wanna watch?" Dan asked seductively. Wrapping his arms around Phil's waist from behind, and snuggling into his neck, breathing in his scent.

"I don't know Dan... I... I just..." Phil looked down, not knowing what to say. His argument with Skye was coming back to him. He didn't want to drag Dan into it.

"What's wrong baby? We don't have to watch a movie if you don't want to." The younger boy replied, walking around Phil and hugging him.

Phil was still debating whether or not to tell Dan. Skye called him something that should never be used to describe anyone, or anything. He decided against saying anything. "Dan, I.... well, we had a long day, and I'm not really feeling up to a movie right now. Can we just go cuddle?" Phil sighed. He stared up into Dan's eyes hopefully, begging him to understand.

"Yeah, that sounds great. As long as I can be with you, I don't care what we do." Dan smiled, showing of his dimples. "But knowing me, I have to go check twitter. I haven't been on social media all day!" Dan finished, making Phil laugh.

"Okay, well I will meet you up in your room." Phil replied. "Don't take too long!" Phil kissed Dan, and walked to the bedroom. He plopped down on the bed, and grabbed his phone. He opened twitter and was horrified at what he saw.

All the tweets were talking about him dating Dan, and how gay they both were. It was horrible! Half of all their messages incorporated the word "fag" or "faggot" which was just messed up. Phil, whose mouth was open in shock, checked Skye's twitter. She had tweeted a video of him and Dan kissing. Phil was too shocked to do anything.

"PHIL!!! WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?" Phil heard Dan's running footsteps coming toward the room. Dan, bright red in the face in fear in his eyes, came running into the room. "Did you tell anyone?!"

"DAN! I DIDN'T I SWEAR! SKYE LOVED ME, SO WHEN SHE FOUND OUT ABOUT US, SHE GOT REALLY MAD AND TWEETED A VIDEO OF US KISSING EARLIER TODAY! I AM SO SORRY DAN!" Dan slid down the wall and landed in a heap. Phil ran over and hugged him.

"No, no, no, no, no...." The tears in Dan's eyes spilled over. "They were s-saying really bad things Phil... wh-why would they..."

"I don't know Dan. Take a breath, you are crying really hard. As long as we have each other, we can make it through this, alright?" A single tear slid down Phil's cheek.

"That's what I was afraid of... I can't cope with these things. Half of our fans hating us for being in love? I can't deal with this right now. We have to have a livestream tomorrow. We can say that it was an edited video. We can fix this! We just need to say that we aren't dating, that's all." Dan had finally stopped crying.

Phil was deeply hurt by this, but nodded in agreement. He wasn't going to let that happen, but he needed Dan calmed down. Dan might've hade a panic attack if he hadn't agreed.

"We need to get to bed, and do it first thing in the morning." Dan said. The two boys got up, and went to bed. There was no cuddling that night. Phil fell asleep right after Dan, silent tears streaming down his face.
