The three of them took a cab back to the flat, and Dan and Clarissa helped Phil upstairs to his room. Phil was still recovering from his sickness, and it didn't help that he was now soaking wet and had been freezing in the chilly November air.
Clarissa went down stairs to make Phil some hot tea while Dan helped him get into some dry clothes and under his covers.
"I'm cold," Phil complained burrowing in his covers.
"I know. I can look for more blankets," Dan offered, but Phil shook his head.
"You're warm," Phil pointed out and Dan just chuckled.
"Alright, you got me," Dan said as he climbed under the covers and wrapped his arms around Phil. The poor boy's skin was icy to the touch.
"That's better," Phil smiled as he nuzzled his head into the crook Dan's neck.
"Is this really happening? Are you really laying here snuggling with me?" Dan questioned aloud causing Phil to giggle.
"I can hardly believe it either. It's like a dream come true," Phil said dreamily.
"So, what does this make us?" Dan asked him.
"Well, what do you want it to make us?" Phil edged him on.
Slowly, Dan brought his lips down onto Phil's, and kissed him long and passionately. When he released, Dan looked Phil in the eyes and told him, "I want it to make us a couple. I want it to make you my boyfriend and I yours. I want it to make us what we've always wanted."
"I love you," Phil whispered.
"I love you too," Dan responded planting another kiss on his lips.
"Ok, get a room!" Clarissa teased as she walked in with a mug of peppermint tea in her hands.
"We had one, you just invaded it!" Dan joked causing Clarissa to laugh.
"Here," she handed the mug to Phil.
"Thank you," he said taking a sip of the warm liquid.
"You can't let anyone know you're together. You know that, right?" Clarissa reminded them.
"Why not?" Phil wondered aloud.
"Because everyone still thinks that you think I'm dating Anya. If they find out that you know the truth, thinks could get messy because they'll begin to wonder what else you know," Dan explained.
"But I don't know anything else," Phil pointed out.
"Clarissa and I know that, but the rest of them don't," Dan commented.
Phil sighed in defeat. Their points were incredibly valid, and he didn't want anything huge to break out just because he had gotten wind of something he shouldn't know.
"I'm sorry, Phil," Dan apologized caressing his new boyfriend.
"No, it's not your fault. We can keep this between the three of us if it means we can all go on as we are now," Phil told them.
"Well, anyways, I should head back. I can walk or take a cab, so both of you just stay comfortable. See you tomorrow, Dan," Clarissa bided as she walked out of the room.
"Bye!" both boys called after her as she left the flat.
As Clarissa strode back home to the coven house, she couldn't help but let a few stray tears fall.
I'm happy for him and angry at him at the same time. I love that Phil's with him and makes him happy, but it still hurts to see him with Dan. I want Dan too, so why'd he have to fall in love with Phil?!
