Rescued by Dan and Phil

Chapter 12 ~ Stalker

~DAN'S POV~
Phil kissed me... and it didn't feel awkward... it felt right, like it was meant to be.

"Phil..." Phil looks at me and I sigh, "I love you, and I know I have just discovered my true sexuality but even before that..." I take a deep breathe, "I knew I felt something special with you. And I think it is Lexi who brought us together."

Phil nods, "I agree. If Lexi wasn't here, I don't know where I would be. I would probably be lying to myself that you will never like me..." I hug Phil as Lexi walks in, "I have to show you guys this," she says, passing me her phone.

An account, a Twitter account called; WhereIsDanandPhil. As I scrolled through the profile, all the locations I have been recently popped up and I began to feel sick.

"So as well as me having a hacker... we have a stalker?" I question.

Phil nods, "Looks like it..." I feel the tears streaming down my cheeks, "What do we do Phil?" I ask, hugging Phil.

"Wait, wait... WAIT! Phan is real??" Lexi questions. I look up and smirk at her as Phil kisses the top of my head. Lexi squeals and jumps on top us for a family hug.

I decide to go on my twitter and explain in a short paragraph of 140 characters because Twitter was a pain like that;
Just to let everyone know, please don't stalk me. Me and Phil and Lexi already have one; and it's fucking scary. Thanks for the support guys

I sat back and threw my phone onto the side, "I need to go and get some last minute wrapping paper," Phil says, "Anyone want to come?"

"I'm good," I say.

"I'll tag along," Lexi says, getting up, "Are you sure Dan?"

I nod my head, "Yeah I'm good. I might just stay on Tumblr..."

Lexi laughs and walks after Phil.

Immediately after they are gone, a tweet comes through from the account WhereIsDanandPhil. I slide it across, curious and then I read it and I once again feel sick.
Phil and Lexi have just gone to Sainsbury's!! They will only be there a limited time for wrapping paper so BE QUICK

I was so glad I hadn't gone.

But I worried about my boyfriend and daughter...

~LEXI'S POV~
Me and Phil headed to Sainsbury's to buy ourselves wrapping paper. My phone bleeps and it is that stalker account. I read it and feel sick, "Phil..."

He looks at me and when he see's my face, his smile fades, "The stalker knows don't they?"

I nod and hand him my phone, "I wonder if Dan's hacker and this stalker is the same person..." Phil suggests.

"Or maybe working together?" I question. "Whoever it is though, this is getting creepy and I don't like it..."

We walk into Sainsbury's and with that, a flock of Fan girls run over and surround us. I was claustrophobic, something I had never told my dads as I was scared too. I kept looking around for an escape but there wasn't one. I felt myself begin to panic as I began to frantically spin my head around, looking for a way out.

"Lexi?" Phil's voice sounded far away but at the same time, really close. There was loud noises and far noises of fan girls...

Everything went black.

~PHIL'S POV~
When Lexi passed out, I had to yell at the top of my voice, "Can you please leave us alone? I love meeting you all, I really do! But now my daughter has passed out, now isn't really the time!"

I heard clicks of photos and then everyone ran away. I go over to Lexi as the manager comes over, "Do you know what just went on?"

"I'm a YouTuber," I say, "And me and my room-mate have a stalker who keeps giving our location. They posted on their Twitter page that we would be here and that's what happened... and Lexi passed out... I don't know why..."

"Maybe she is claustrophobic," a women comes over from doing her shopping. She pushes her trolly to one side and sets next to Lexi, "I'm Grace, a nurse at the local hospital."

I nod and shake her head. We move Lexi away from the door and soon she flickered her eye lids, "What... what happened?" But she didn't sound right: sort of drowsy, and her speech was slurred.

The nurse looks at me, "I think your daughter has a mild case of concussion... which means you should probably give her paracetamol as this may reduce it. Don't however, give her ibuprofen or aspirin, as these could cause her to start bleeding." I nod, understanding.

"Seriously dad... what happened?" I looked up, shocked. Lexi had never called me dad. I hugged her close, "You passed out..." I pull her away, "Lexi... is there something you never told me and Dan?"

Lexi looked at her feet, "I am claustrophobic..." she says, "That's why I Passed out I think..."

I hug her again, "Why didn't you tell us?"

"I was scared," she slurred, "Scared you and Dan wouldn't want me any more."

I brought the wrapping paper and the nurse drove us home after giving us the offer.

We arrived back at the apartment and like the nurse said, I went to get Lexi some paracetamol.

"Phil... what happened today?" Dan came walking in and wrapped his arms around my waist as I poured tap-water into a glass for Lexi, "Lexi passed out as she is claustrophobic..."

"Lexi's claustrophobic?" Dan questions. I nod.

"Anyway, she has mild concussion which means I need to give her paracetamol... wait how did you know something happened?" I ask.

"Let's just say it is all over the internet," Dan said. I open my mouth, "What?"

"Yeah, there are photos all over the internet of Lexi passed out and videos of you yelling..." Dan tightened the hug as I began to cry.

"I don't want to live like this anymore Dan!" I cry, "I hate it! And we can't even look after Lexi 24/7..."

"Lexi is 14 Phil, old enough not to have us look after her 24/7..."

"Dan we can't! I knew we weren't ready to adopt!" I cry.

"Please don't say that," Dan said, "If it wasn't for Lexi, we wouldn't be in this position now..."

"Dan we're just not ready!" I say, "Look at us! We have a stalker and a hacker on our hands!"

"Phil..."

"We can't look after her Dan. And I know you're going to be mad or heart-broken when I say it..."

"Don't say what I think you are going to say Phil..." Dan pleads.

"I think we need to take her back."

Dan stares at me, "I'm not saying we leave her there forever," I say, "Just until our life is on track and we don't have a stalker and hacker..."

"But Lexi hates it there!" Dan says, "You saw what that women did! She beat Lexi up! We can't take her back!"

"I know Dan... but it won't even be that long... about a week or two..."

"Why can't she go stay with Joe and Caspar... or Marcus and Niomi... or Alfie and Zoe..." Dan pleads.

"They have enough things on here hands Dan," I say.

"Well you're telling her," Dan says.

"No need to, I heard it all," me and Dan spin around and see Lexi. Heart-broken Lexi in the doorway.
