To Make You Fall In Love (Phan)

Chapter 45

"Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!" I say happily shaking Phil's arm. "It's your birthday come on. Get up!"

"Aren't I the one who's supposed to be excitedly waking you up?" He mumbles rubbing his eyes.

"Who cares? I'm excited. Now get up," I say and he leans up onto his elbows. I bend down over him and kiss him. "Happy Birthday baby,"

"Thank you," he says and pushes me off him and off the bed and gets out of bed himself.

"You are a horrible boyfriend," I say to him from the floor and he smiles adorable at me and winks. I laugh and hold my hands up to him which he takes and pulls me up from the ground.

"But you love me," he says pulling me towards him

"Yes. I do," I say and grab his hand and pull him out my room. "Waffles?"

"You have waffles?" He says happily. "Oh my gosh! I love you!"

"You love me when I have waffles? That's rude, you really are being horrible to me today," I say in mock hurt.

"I'm joking. I love you all the time," he says kissing me and then hopping on the kitchen counter as I get out the waffles and turn the oven on.

"Wait. One sec. I forgot your present. Don't let the waffles burn," I say rushing out the kitchen.

"That's an awful lot of pressure," he says.

"I'm sure you can manage it," I reply and run upstairs to retrieve his present.

I reach under my bed and grab it and run back downstairs.

"Good. You're back. I couldn't handle the pressure of waffles," Phil says.

"I doubt I'm much better to be honest," I say and I hand him his present. "There you go Love,"

"Thank you!" He says happily kicking his legs back and forth. He opens the small box first and looks inside. I watch him tentatively. He took the small charm out of the box and held it in his palm to look at it. It was a small ying and yang symbol engraved with our initials on each side. "Dan! It's so cute! Oh my gosh. I love it! Thank you!" He says jumping off the counter and running towards me and hugging me tightly.

"You're welcome, Open the next one," I say pointing to it. He pulls away from me and jumps back up on to the counter and picks it up. He peels back the paper and the frame falls out. It's a framed picture of a day in the middle of Autumn. We'd gone for a walk, it was just before his mum had died and everything around us was golden brown, red or yellow. We'd found a cute bench and decided to take a photo. I set the camera on a timer and put it at one end of the bench facing the other. I told Phil we only had ten seconds so he panicked and fell onto the bench and I fell on top of him. The picture captured the perfect moment of the two of us laughing lying on the edge of a bench with all the trees falling around us.

It was my favourite picture of the two of us and I'd got it framed in a large white frame for him.

"I thought...maybe for the...our...flat?" I suggested and Phil looked up at me from the picture and back down again.

"This is so freaking cute Dan! I love it. This is perfect! I can't wait to move in with you," he says and pulls me towards him. He wraps his legs around me from his vantage on the counter and leans down to press our foreheads together. "Thank you so much Dan, you're the best boyfriend. Ever,"

And I lean up on my tiptoes to kiss him. Our lips and tongues tangle together I wrap my arms around his neck holding him to me and I don't know why but it seems different to every other time I kissed him because right now in this moment I know that I can keep doing it, forever. Because Phil was mine. And I was his. And I loved him. And he loved me.

And that's the last chapter. Thank you so so much for reading this. Love you all xx
