It was a typical morning for Dan and Phil. Phil was already awake and quickly devouring country crisp before Dan could wake up and get him into trouble. The sun shone through the window of the flat and all seemed right in the world. London was peacefully quiet and still this morning. At 11:45 Dan finally shuffled through to the kitchen. "He has risen!" Mocked Phil from his sofa crease as Japanese characters chattered softly in the background. Dan grunted to answer Phil and settled into the browsing position. "Remember we're going into town today, Dan?" " yeah we are supposed to be buying pj a birthday present right?" " yeah so hurry up and get ready."
Dan slipped his black skinny jeans over his hips and walked around his room trying to find something to wear. He eventually gave up and walked to the kitchen with his torso exposed. "Phil, have you seen any of my t-shirts?" Phil walked through to the kitchen then stopped suddenly, examining Dan's slender physique. He was suddenly snapped back to reality and handed Dan a shirt. " hurry up and put something on"
They got a cab into the city centre and headed for their favourite spot, forbidden planet. They decided on a figure from naruto and headed to the movies.
When the movie let out it was dark and their breaths came out in clouds in the biting cold air that stung with every inhale.
Dan and Phil stepped noisily through the streets discussing the movie. They suddenly realised they were being followed. They quicken their pace, faster and faster until they both settle into a run, hearts pounding, breathing ragged and limbs sore they eventually stop running and slip into a side street. Phil tried to ask Dan what was chasing them when Dan clamped his hand over Phil's mouth and raised a finger to his lips. A silouette of a large man stepped into view, looked around then walked away and as he did Phil saw the glint of a knife shining in the dim light. Phil felt Dan's chest loosen. He still had Dan's hand over his mouth. It was warm and made his lips tingle beneath Dan's fingers. Phil looked into Dan's dark brown eyes and found that he couldn't look away. He moved Dan's hand from his mouth. " Dan?" Dan looked down and smiled at Phil. "Yeah?" " we've been friends for a long time right?" Dan looked at Phil in confusion. " I mean I don't want to ever lose you. That guy could have hurt you!" "Oh Phil" Dan whispered as he caressed Phil's jawline. "I love you, Dan" "what?" "I love you. I have for a long time" Phil looked at his feet suddenly embarrassed. Dan slipped his finger underneath Phil's chin and lifted his face. Phil's bright eyes shone in what little light they had. Dan closed his eyes. The street light began to flicker and die. Everything went black as their lips collided.
