A 50% Chance

Chapter - 2

Dan's POV, age 24 - 19 Years later

"Phil!" I shout at the top of my lungs. "You ate all my cereal?"  
As he slowly trudges into the room I realise that I had woken him up. That's not necessarily a bad thing however, as morning Phil is hot. Like smoking. Dan, he is your best friend! How can you think that? "What? Oh sorry." He gives an apologetic smile, and wow is it adorable! "Ugh. Its fine and I'm sorry for waking you." I basically fall into my sofa crease, watching closely as Phil sits down beside me. I grab the tv remote, pressing play on what ever anime we were watching last night. To be honest, I couldn't care less at what it was, I was staring off into the distance, thinking about Phil. Dan, if you tell him your feelings, expect him to run away, because who could ever like you? He certainly won't. If you tell him don't expect him to be ok with it. "Dan. Are you ok? You have been staring at the wall for quite some time." Phil drags me out of my thoughts. "Oh.....Um yeah I'm fine" I'm not looking at him, I can't bring my self to do it. I hear the tv pause and Phil speak once again. 

"Dan, look at me. Something is not right. Just tell me  what it is. I'll understand." I glance up at him. His happy smile plastered across his face only make the feelings worse. I take a deep breath. I have to tell him. It is now or never. If he didn't accept it then it was all my fault for having these feelings in the first place. "W-well....Its just that.....PhilIreallyloveyouandIhaveforyearsjustpleasedontru-" I am interrupted by a small cough "Ok now could you please speak English. Thanks" I sigh and look into his icy blue eyes. "Look Phil. I really like you.....Maybe more than that. I have done since the first day I lay my eyes on you through my computer screen. Um....What I am trying to say is that Phil...I love you." I could feel my cheeks burning up. Silence, for a few seconds I hear nothing. That is until a small laugh, barely audible erupts from his mouth. As it got louder he spoke. "Oh god Dan. You made it sound like a big deal. I love you too you big softie." I look wide eyed at him. "R-really?" I sound like an excited child going to Disney land. "Yes and I'll prove it to" He quickly leans and plants a small kiss on my lips. It was short but sweet. As he pulls away, I could feel the corners of my mouth turn up into a smile. "I love you Phil" "I love you too Dan" I sigh and wrap my arms around him. He chuckles and kisses the top of my head. I knew he would love me back.
