Dan
My hands were covered in dye, I was making a new flower crown last night after I got off the bus. I guessed this would be a good time to make some sort of tie-dye jumper. By 12:00 I had sewn and pastel dyed it but I thought it needed something else. I glanced over at Phil, bringing up the courage to talk to him. "Hey Phil," he turned around and smiled, walking over to me."what should I put on this sweater?" He smiled at the inclusion,
"Ok, I know you might not like it but you know all time low?"he raised an eyebrow and I nodded vigorously."well you know their skull emblem?" I opened my eyes wide, that would be THE BEST PRINT for this. I hugged him.
"That's amazing, how can I repay you?" He laughed as I pulled away,
"Ohhhhh, help me design these wings for the back of this jacket?" I nodded at his request and we got to work, I painted him some wings and he sketched me a skull.

"Dan, what's your sexuality?" I blushed at Phils question.
"I'm strictly bisexual." I giggled and he looked confused so I stopped.
"Good cause i was worried you would judge me for being bi and I like to gossip about romance a little too much to my friends!" He smiled, "Anyway there's this guy called Chris, he's really cute and he works in Starbucks with me and I think he likes me andiwasjustchevkingthatyouweresinglebeforeidoanything." He spoke so quickly that it hid my surprise WHAT!? The thing is I really like Phil, more than anyone but I new that my dad would hurt me if he found out. My mum was in Dubai working so no help there for at least three months. I hated what I was about to say but it was all I could do.
"I...I'm sorry Phil I can't." I picked up my stuff and ran out of the block, away from my troubles. Only option, only option, only option...I repeated the words in my mind all the way down the road and throughout the journey home. Only option. I really do love Phil, it hurt so much to be running away from him but at least he had Chris.

It was about midnight when I texted him, I couldn't help it, I just needed to keep him with me until my mum gets back, if he moves on that's ok because we can still be best friends, I'll be friends with him if he's with Chris or anyone else to be honest. I sum this up in a text, cutting out the bit about my mum and stuff and send it to him. He straight away replies "thanks Dan, you really are my best friend and I want to keep things that way, I wasn't sure if you liked me and I didn't want to hurt you by going out with Chris so I was just checking👍🏻wanna go into town tomorrow?getting my hair cut💈"
"Kk, 11:30 at the statue?🗿"
"C u then🙃" I clicked the top button and the screen went dark, clicking off and freeing my mind to rest.
