~Phil's POV~

After Seph found out she was going to be living with Dan and I, I hung around to help her start packing. I'm honestly afraid to have her move in because then we'll have the whole love triangle under one roof for over a year. After I left their flat, I headed home. I would have gone to see Dan, but I didn't feel up for it. Seeing him would've hurt me even more. I couldn't bare thinking about Dan or Persephone, just the thought of them cripples me. Part of me wants him to get out of the hospital because I miss him but part of me doesn't want him out so I can have down time with Seph. I dug myself into this hole and now I'm stuck, Dan's my best friend and I love Seph. I finally got home, closed the door, and slid to the floor. My phone started to buzz in my pocket, I looked at it, Dan. I thought about it for a second, then gave in and answered it. Our conversation went like this:

Me: Hey, how's it going?

Dan: Alright. I have some news.

Me: Really? I guess I do too, but you first.

Dan: I'm gonna be out of the hospital soon.

Me: That's great. How long are you gonna be?

Dan: A couple weeks. But, anyway what's your news?

Me: Persephone is gonna be living with us for a while.

Dan: How long is a while?

Me: Uh ... eighteen months or so. Not long at all, right?

Dan: Phil! No, she can't live with us! That'll just lead to stronger temptations. It's not gonna happen!

Me: But, Dan.

Dan: Absolutely not! I gotta go but don't let her move in.

Me: Wait!

Dan: Yeah?

Me: We're still friends, right?

Dan: If we weren't would you be the first person I call to tell?

Me: Thanks.

Dan: Yeah. But I really gotta go.

Me: Alright. Hope your home soon.

Dan: Thanks, bye.

Me: Bye.

Dan and I hung up. I felt myself start to smile, uncontrollably. I crisscrossed my legs and called Seph. I told her everything about Dan except his disapproval of her moving in. She was overjoyed. She told me she was going to come over in a couple of hours to bring her essentials. Seph and I had decided she would sleep in Dan's room since he wasn't going to be there, but all that changed. My nerves started coming back. My head started pounding, my ears started ringing, my vision went blurry. Then, everything went black.

~A/N~

Aloha! I have no idea why, but this chapter took me forever to write and I apologize. Phil passed out just in case that wasn't clear. I have a lot of things planned for this and I'm so excited to share them.

Bye for now, my lovelies!
