Phil's P.O.V

A bright light beamed thorough my closed eyes and, as I began to remember previous events, I woke with a start.

"W-what?" I heard a voice speak seeming to come from above me.

Just a moment later I felt a weight lift from the top of my head and I raised mine from what seemed to be another's shoulder.

When did this happen?

"Where am I?" a sleepy looking Dan questioned with a groggy voice.

His hair had a new, slight curl to it which I though made him look even better than usual if that's possible.

"I think we're still in the tree." I replied with a slight giggle.

"The what? oh shit." He said his change of attitude apparent on his face.

"What time is it?" He said in a raised voice and a look of alarm in his eyes.

"Errm I'll check." I assured while digging around in my bag trying to find my phone.

"Oh god, It's 4." I choked knowing what I'm going to receive when I get home.

How am I even going to get home? I only had enough for the school bus fair but the public transport, I didn't even have half the price.

"What's the matter Phil? It's not that late."

"I know but I can't get home. I can't afford the public bus prices and I live miles away." I said becoming slightly distraught.

"Hey, it's fine. Why don't you just stay at mine tonight. We can walk to school tomorrow and you can use the money you have today to get home then." He spoke in a reassuringly calm voice.

"Okay, but won't I be to much of a bother?" I said, hoping he'd argue against my point.

I was really hoping to put off seeing father as long as possible.

"Of course you won't be. I mentioned my parents are always away and so you can keep me company."

"O-okay, thank you." I stuttered more grateful than he could ever imagine.

"Well come on then." He smiled whilst dragging himself to the trunk of the tree to begin climbing back o the ground.

I let our a soft laugh at the scene I knew was going to play out.

"Have fun." I smirked cockily before pushing my weight off of the branch ad elegantly landing on the ground with a gentle thud.

I watched his expression flicker from horror to relief as I fell before hearing him begin to shout.

"Never do that again Phil. You could of got hurt or worse... gave me a heart attack."

I chuckled at his comment before responding with "Yeah, yeah what ever. now hurry up and get down here you slow poke."

He shot me a smile before making his attempt down.

Ten minuets later he made it down and fell to his knees.

"I'm never going back up that tree again. Me and the ground love each other very much and I'm never going to loose contact with it ever again." He stated whilst grabbing two handfuls of the mud and letting the brown dust pour through his fingers.

His head was down so I didn't know what his face looked like but I knew mine was stretched with a humorous smile.

"Okay, okay. Well can we get going now?" I chuckled.

"What ever you want." He said, raising his head and showing me his smile similar to my own.

"Off we go then." He said stumbling to his feet and walking ahead.
