Phil's POV
The moment he ran away I came to a conclusion; I am the emo faggot everyone said I was. A guy like Dan wouldn't want me. Hot, perfect in bed, smart and funny... They're just straight... Straight out of my league that is. I walked home, alone. Not a single soul around. When I got home I just layed in bed. Contemplating whether to go ask what I did wrong. But that's when I heard someone knocking on the front door.
Desperate for it to be Dan, I ran down the stairs and opened the door. Only to see Chris and PJ. Both looked at me with sympathy. Probably because I look like someone tried to kill me.
"Sorry, Lester. Was looking for Howell's house." Chris said, no emotion in his voice. He had some package in his hand... It was all wraped in purple something.
"Ahh... Well, I really don't know where his house is." The thing about that sentence is that if Dan ever did tell me which house he lived on, I don't remember. Or at least didn't seem to care in that precise moment.
"It's fine, lad. Can we hang out with you?" PJ said in a very cheerful voice. Much to my wanting to be alone, I knew I needed friends so I let them in.
"Sure. Come inside." They took off their shoes for some reason and walked to the living room in socks.
We played some games... Kept my mind occupied but... When we took a break in twister, I realised that Dan wasn't there. Even though I barely met the guy, he's one of those people you instantly connect to and want around you all the time. Besides, I had a tiny crush on him.
"Hey... What's up with that sad lost puppy face?" Chris said once he saw my face, which was all you needed to see in order to know my emotions.
"I... Kissed Dan and he ran away..." PJ looked sympathetic and Chris looked mad.
"Oh, he did it again. This bastard is gonna pay..." Chris said as he stood up while clenching his fists.
"I'm pretty sure violence won't help at all..." PJ said as he pushed Chris back into his seat.
"Did it again?" I asked, afraid of what it meant. Chris looked all serious all of a sudden and PJ looked uncomfortable.
"Dan has a long list of people he does stuff like that to. He's the school's heartbreaker after all." PJ said while standing up. "But no use for moping around. Let's go shopping!" He looked very happy and I didn't want to make him feel bad so I agreed.
They started buying me stuff. Clothes that were very different from my clothes taste. And they even took me to get a haircut. I still had a fringe, just a less emo fringe. We walked around the stores, they started making jokes. It was all very fun. It was also the first time I've ever hung out with friends. But I kinda wished Dan was here... I just started crying all of a sudden and this guy I had seen in school comforted me.
I didn't know who it was and I didn't care either. All I did was cry and cry. That was until no more tears came out and I had calmed down. I broke apart the embrace and he smiled sympathetically at me. Chris and PJ had gone to the bathroom... Which probably led to 'that'.
"Are you ok?" I shook my head at his question. At this point I looked like a small frightened puppy. "What happened?" Even though he seemed more curious than concerned I trusted him...
"You could say I was rejected..." It took a lot out of me to not burst into tears. He looked at me with a confused expression.
"Rejected? How? You're so hot..." I couldn't help but blush at his statement. But it didn't stop there. He grabbed me by the waist and gave me a small gentle cheek kiss.
"Felix..." PJ said as he slowly yanked him out of my side. I had to admit, he was pretty hot. I felt the same butterflies that I did with Dan and you could call it a rebound crush. But who cares? I got a chance and I took it.
"Oh, right. My name is Felix. I'm a senior." His voice seemed cheerful. Just a slight accent...
"I'm Phil. I'm new so..." I smiled at him. A genuine smile... He took my hand and kissed it.
"How about we go to a cafe, my dear prince?" And there it was. Intense butterflies... The kind that just kept getting stronger. I couldn't speak so I just nodded.
He took me to a nice cafe. There we just talked and made jokes. PJ and Chris obviously had to be there. It was very fun to say the least. Not once did Dan cross my mind. Chris had his perverted jokes, PJ had his weird jokes and Felix looked like he belonged in a circus. I guess I'm calling us the 'Fantastic Foursome'...
We said our goodbyes once it was time to go and Felix walked me home. His excuse was that it was pretty dark and I needed a 'brave protector'. To be honest, that made me giggle inside my head. Oh god, I feel like a schoolgirl.
I got home and I noticed that Chris had put a bunch of Beers inside my bags. I decided to drink that. Don't remember what happened next, but I ended up in a foreign bedroom, and just left my phone number. Let's just say I wasn't very clean.
Whoever it was lived pretty close to my house so I had enough time to get ready and pick out an outfit with my new clothes. I skipped breakfast, since I didn't see the need and went to school. At the gate I was flirting with everyone waiting for Felix. But Dan arrived first and I couldn't help but tease him.
He seemed very nervous and to be honest, a bit scared. And it all intensified once I put my arm around him. It was kinda pleasing seeing him all scared and lost but... Revenge isn't ideal so I let him go and went to hang out with Chris and PJ who were eyeing me coldly.
All classes were tormenting since I couldn't look a Dan. Or at least I didn't want to and vice versa. The teachers would look at us curiously since the air was silent enough to be tense. I answered whatever question the teacher asked me. Mostly wrong but I tried? I don't know. My brain wasn't working.
Art was a real relief, since all I had to deal was with Sarah. I also noticed PJ was there so we just had a wonderful banter. Not to Sarah's liking, since she wanted to have all my attention.
Lunch came around and I was almost going to sit with Dan but then I remembered what had happened. Sitting with PJ, Chris and Felix was amazing. I mentioned the whole 'Fantastic Foursome' and Chris, being Chris and all, managed to turn it sexual.
"Yes. We shall also have a foursome. I'd sign in for that!" He said making PJ confused and making Felix laugh.
"Yeah, lets be called the 'Fantastic Foursome'!" PJ yelled. Chris put his hand on PJ' s mouth and I laughed. It was then that Felix put his hand on my tighs... Close to 'that'. And in seconds it got up.
"How about I help you take care of that situation?" He whispered. I was turned on so I didn't hesitate and instantly nodded.
We did it in the bathroom. At some point someone entered but quickly left. I'm not gonna give much detail but it was amazing. I just wished he moaned like the guy in the storage room. Now that's a real bottom... Phillip?! Stop thinking like that!
After that I went to class, but Dan wasn't there. It made me feel kinda lonely... But PJ sat next to me, since Chris left because he was 'sick'. It was alright, I guess.
I went home, alone. I locked myself in my room and it all came down on me. I cried, and cried until I fell asleep. I woke up screaming. But luckily, my parents weren't home yet. Sometimes I wonder if they travel and don't inform me.... Ughhh, whatever.
It was 9 am when Felix decided to call me and ask me if I wanted to go on a walk with him. I agreed and put on a good outfit. But with a fashion sense like mine, pretty sure it's not 'cool material'.
We met at Starbucks and walked around. But while we were walking toward the cinema, I saw Dan. He looked horrible... I felt really bad. I saw him enter some weird park. I knew something was up. So I told Felix I had to go and ran there. I entered a building and saw Dan, crying on the floor... It really broke my heart.
