I let myself in the door after school. The flat was dark and Dan and Phil were nowhere to be seen. I pulled out my phone to text them but found that Dan had already texted me.

D: hey A, we're at the store but we'll be back soon. U need anything?

A: k, can u get me some shower gel tho? Tired of using yours or P's and smelling of spices/vanilla

D: sure wat kind

I texted him a picture of my favorite shower gel, and ran up the stairs to my room. Linkas and I had decided (or, I told him) we were doing our project on a knight. Sitting down at my desk and opening my browser, I searched up some facts about medieval knights and their daily life. I won't bore you with the details, but basically Knights are destined for knighthood the minute they're born, and then they do training and stuff and then they're Knights who fight for their Lord or something like that. When Phil and Dan came home, I had lost track of time on tumblr and the sun had gone down a while ago. "Lana-banana?" Phil called up the stairs, "are you doing your homework?" His tone wasn't upset, he sounded curious. "Ummmmmmm" I called back, shuffling papers and trying desperately to find the tab from earlier. "Yeahhhhhhhh?"Phil opened the door and poked his head in. I looked at him sheepishly as he shook his head and "tsk"ed at me in a mock angry way. "Daniel! Our daughter has apparently taken after you, because she's procrastinating on tumblr!" Dan's footsteps fell hard as he bounded up the stairs. "High five!" He put his hand out, but I missed by about a foot. 

Most of the day was pretty uneventful, we had dinner and then Phil put on Mulan, in honor of the time at the orphanage. It was also my favorite Disney movie, so I wasn't complaining, not to mention Dan made amazing popcorn! I ran upstairs to get my duvet and we all sat on the sofa, eating popcorn and bundled in our respective blankets. I didn't want another mishap like this morning, so when the film was over and Phil was half asleep, I went to get ready for bed. While I brushed my teeth, I hummed a tune that was somehow a combination on Pentatonix's 'Can't sleep love' and Payphone by Maroon 5? I wasn't even sure. Dan put me to bed, kissing my forehead and double checking that I set my alarm; "You're sure right? 'Cause we don't want a replay of today, right?" I nodded, and he turned out the light and shut the door.

I'm pretty sure that when I closed Alana's door I heard a faint, "Goodnight Dad!" My heart melted just then, and I found Phil fast asleep on the sofa. "Phil! Wake up you spork!" Phil sat up abruptly, "What? Are the dogs on fire too?" he said, looking around frantically. "Nooo? I don't know what you're talking about babe, but I have something to tell you." I sat down next to him, and let him wake up a bit more. "Oh, sorry, weird dream. What's your news?" "Lana called me dad!" He smiled, then frowned. "Not fair! How come she hasn't called me dad yet?" I smirked. "Maybe because you fell asleep halfway through her favorite movie?" "Hey!" Phil punched me in the arm, maybe a little to hard, because; "That actually hurt you know!" "Oops. Sorry." He stifled a giggle, then pulled me down onto the sofa. I purposely angled myself so I would fall hard on his lap. "Oomph. Warn me next time, will you?" "You were the one who pulled me down!" I adjusted myself so I could see his face. "Okay, fine. I love you." I played with his hair, "I know you love me, because I'm FABULOUS!"

"You're so gay."

"Oh why thank you kind sir. You're looking quite homosexual yourself."

"Dan, no one looks gay, it's not exactly possible." I raised my eyebrows. "Oh really? Because you just told me you love me, and last I checked, we both identify as male penis owners." Phil smiled at me, "I'm pretty sure that's sounding gay, not looking gay?"

"Whatever bitch, I'm still gay anyway, no matter what." I looked into his eyes, which were a multitude of colours, blue currently. Extremely blue, like the sky on a sunny day. Not that it was ever sunny here. I traced my fingers on his jawline and leaned closer, our foreheads touching. Then his lips were on mine, and when we finally pulled apart, "I love you so much." He smiled his beautiful smile, and I found the part of me that was missing.


A/N: Sorry I haven't updated in about a billion years (not that you really care), I don't really have an excuse other than writers block. Also sorry about the ridiculously short chapter. In other, happier news; we got 400+ reads! Yay! *does 400+ reads happy dance* One last thing I wanted to say; is that I'm American, but I try to use British spellings here (Colour in stead of color, etc.), and if I'm writing on the computer, it's fine, but sometimes I write on my phone, which means autocorrect. And if I don't catch it, that is why there may be inconsistent spelling. ^-^
