Dan and Phil One Shots (2)

Slipped Away

This is a songfic to Avril Lavigne's Slipped Away as requested by @11dreeaam11

This took me so long to write D: I am so sorry.

TW: It's sad but it kind of has a happy ending?

Phil sighed, flicking through the photo album in front of him. The memories were running through his mind, reminding him of things he really didn't want to remember. The tears the day he left, the screams of the nightmares that ran through his head. The pictures were crushing parts of him but he couldn't stop. He needed to know why.

I miss you, miss you so bad
I don't forget you, oh it's so sad

There was a picture of Phil and him on the London eye, sharing a kiss. At the time it was a beautiful moment Phil thought he would never want to forget but, now, he just wanted the moment to vanish in history. Phil missed him so much, so much. Why did he go?

I hope you can hear me
I remember it clearly

Phil could remember the day so clearly and remembering the words he said just made Phil want to cry for eternity. Sobs shook his whole body as he flicked to the next photo: Phil and him sitting on the beach, hand in hand as they watched the waves wash against the shore.

That was an adorable day: they had bought ice cream and ate it as they reminisced about their relationship. It was amazing at the time but now Phil just wanted to forget.

The day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the same
Oh

The photo album then finished. The rest were blank pages. That made tears stream down his face at and unbelievable speed. Phil remembered the day he slipped away, saying 'I love her not you'. He left Phil without much consideration.

It made Phil feel terrible. About himself. About life. About his ex.

I didn't get around to kiss you
Goodbye on the hand

Phil didn't even get to say goodbye. He just turned around and walked out, leaving Phil to cry and cry for hours on end. He was broken, he really was. He had been Phil's world but he had turned it all around in a few moments.

I wish that I could see you again
I know that I can't

Phil wanted him back, he wanted to know that he was just joking and it was all one lie but he couldn't. He couldn't see him again, ever, because that would cause Phil to cry even more. He didn't think he could suffer crying any longer.

Oh
I hope you can hear me
'Cause I remember it clearly

"Phil?" Phil heard a voice and dropped the photo album to the floor, swerving around to see Dan. "Are you okay?"

"No, I'm really not." Phil mumbled, even more tears filling his eyes.

The day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the same
Oh

"I miss him so much, Dan. I don't think anything will be the same without him." Phil was soon sobbing again so Dan's immediate reaction was to wrap his arms around his friend in a comforting way.

"I know you do.. but you'll find someone better. He doesn't deserve you."

I've had my wake up
Won't you wake up
I keep asking why
And I can't take it
It wasn't fake
It happened, you passed by

"It was real. It was all real. The way he kissed me and held my hand. Why did he throw it away for someone else? Did he ever actually love me?" Phil buried his head into Dan's shoulder, not wanting Dan to see how horrible he looked at that moment.

Now you're gone, now you're gone
There you go, there you go
Somewhere I can't bring you back
Now you are gone, now you are gone
There you go, there you go,
Somewhere you're not coming back

"You can't get him back, Phil. You shouldn't want to either. He hurt you and I will forever hate him for that. You have me though, I am always here. I love you and I would never hurt you, trust me on that."

The day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the same no..
The day you slipped away
Was the day that I found it won't be the same oh...

"What if you do? I always believed he wouldn't hurt me but he did. Who's to say you won't do the same?"

"I love you so much and I would never hurt you."

"Promise?"

"Promise."

I miss you

Dan gently brought his hand through Phil's hair and, despite the fact that he still missed him, he knew he had found someone so much better...

Dan.

I've only read this through once so it's probably terrible.. oh well ^-^

Favourite song at the moment?

Probably Another Night on Mars by The Maine, Hear You Me by Jimmy Eat World or Fly by Sleeping with Sirens?? There are actually loads I love at the moment >.<
