Phil's POV

I looked over at Dan.
He was sitting at the 'popular people' table, surrounded by girls that were basically groping him all over.

I felt a stream of jealousy run through my body.
I mean, we are keeping our relationship on the down low, but he's letting most of the girls touch him wherever they wanted- oh, and there's one that just kissed his cheek.

I sniffled, feeling the tears in my eyes.
It was my fucking birthday.
I thought he would hang out with me today, but apparently not.
I got up, having enough of watching this in misery.

Mum said that since it's my birthday I could stay home from school if I wanted.
I said no, but I hope I'm allowed to change my mind.

As soon as I got home I chucked my bag in the couch in the living room and ran into the bathroom.

If I'm going to be home all day, by myself, why should I wear contacts? They're annoying, anyway.
I slid them off of my eyes and felt around for my glasses.
I found them and slid them on.
Funny how two fragments of glass can help me see.

I trudged to my room and took off my clothes.
I stood in front of the mirror in my boxers, examine myself.

No wonder Dan laps up the attention from all the girls. They're all really pretty and have nice bodies, whilst I'm slim and almost sickly pale and have a weird head and a fat nose-

I sighed. I shouldn't think like that.
I slipped on a pair of joggers and went to the kitchen.

My parents work from 6am to 11pm, so I'm alone for a while.

"We main have a cake mix somewhere.." I mumbled, shifting things around in the kitchen cupboards.
"Aha!" I found a chocolate Betty Crocker cake mix and set to work.

After a mere five minutes I had the cake in the oven.

I wonder if the pizza place is open this early...

It was. I ordered my classic, a large pepperoni pizza.
I plopped down in front of the TV and slid 'My Neighbour Totoro' into the DVD player.

Shuffling back onto the couch, I snuggled into my blanket that I keep there.

I was half way through the movie when the door bell rang.

"Pizza!"

I jumped up and grabbed my money and a jumper; I don't really want the pizza guy to see me shirtless.

I opened the front door to see a smiling teenage boy.

"Wow, you look a bit young to be home by yourself.. On a school day." He remarked.

I looked at his name tag. "Well- Chris, you look a bit young to be a pizza delivery person."

He chuckled. "I'm doing it for family. Dad's in the hospital, mum's drinking 'er life away. I have a younger sister to look after." He shrugged.

"Oh wow. I'm sorry, that must be tough. And it's my birthday. I came home from school because my boyfriend was ignoring me whilst also lapping up attention from all the girls. So yeah."

He frowned. "He sounds like a dick head. I hope you guys sort things out. You seem nice. Anyways, here's your pizza. That'll be thirteen dollars, please."

I handed him the money and took the pizza. "I hope things go well with your family!" I smiled before closing the door.

Wow. I hope he goes ok. But, pizza.

The front door bell rang as I was on the second piece of cake.

"Who is it?"

"It's Dan! Y'know, your boyfriend?"

I sighed and dragged myself to the front door.

"What do you want?" I asked sluggishly. Didn't he have a group of hussies to attend to?

"I came by to check on you. You left school early and I just wanted to make sure you're ok."

I frowned. "Why would you care? If you can ignore me on my birthday- my fucking birthday- to tend to a bunch of high school sluts you surely can just ignore the fact I left?" I said bitterly.

Dan's face went from confused to angry to sad.
"Why- where is this coming from?"

I sighed heavily.
"Don't play dumb. I bet you even let one of them give you a bj, since I can't do that for you. Now, I have some cake to eat. Bye bye!" I grinned sarcastically before trying to shut the door, but his foot got in the way.

"Phil, hold the fuck up, what? Why would I ever do that to you?"

I looked him in the eyes before closing mine.
I took my glasses off and cleaned them with the edge of my shirt before sliding them back on.

"Because, Daniel. One, I am a boy, and since it seems that you prefer girls, you would, most likely, take an opportunity to get sexual pleasure from the preferred gender. Two, I am not good looking, at all, and don't object, because it's true, and three, I am, in fact, asexual, and at the moment I don't really feel comfortable with filling your sexual desires. So, for the last time, bye bye."

I was finally able to shut the door.

I watched him walk away through the peep hole.

Sighing, I walked back to the TV and changed the DVD to 'Spirited Away'.

~

I was surprised to hear the front door open.
Thinking it was mum or dad I jumped up and ran into the hallway, only to be crushed in a huge hug.
I was pushed back by my shoulders and realised it was Dan.

"Now, listen here, Philip. I would never, ever cheat on you, not in a million years. And even if I am bi, I'm in a relationship with you, and I love you, I am in love you, and I keep falling everyday. You are so, so beautiful. Also, I don't give a flying fuck if you're asexual, and even if you're never comfortable with pleasuring me, there's this thing called porn. Also, I bought you a cake."

I blinked.
"D-Dan, I- uh- I can't-"

He shut me up by pressing his lips to mine.
I felt the cliché fireworks go off in my stomach again.

He pulled away and crushed me in another bear hug.

"Happy birthday, Phil."

I feel like I had to write a special birthday thing so there you go
