There Are Worse Things I Could Do

Chapter 48: Recap of incident

How'd you do? There's a part where there's mention of the sexual assault on here. You've been warned.

You wake up the next day at 12:00pm. Dan was still asleep. You look at the boy next to you. How could he ever be like you? How could he be depressed, suicidal, emotionally broken? That doesn't even seem possible.

You place your hand on Dan's cheek and rub his cheekbone with your thumb. He stays asleep. He doesn't even move. You remove your hand and watch his chest rise and fall. So peaceful. After a bit you decide to stop being a massive creep and go downstairs.

Phil was sitting in the lounge watching 'Death note' Phil's love for Anime was so strong, he most likely wouldn't love a human as much as it.

"Hey Phil!" You say, causing him to jump a bit.

"Oh hey, (Y/N) what's good?"

"Not much."

Phil chuckles and pauses the show. He pats the sofa next to him. You come over and sit down next to him.

"Where did you go last night?" Phil asks. That was Phil's serious face. No more bubbly Phil.

You stay silent.

"(Y/N)....."

"I just left. I couldn't handle being here at the time so I ran." You manage to say.

He studies you for a moment and then says,

**boop it's coming up**

"You had to have a destination, wouldn't you?
There no way you just ran in a direction and didn't stop."

"Well... I did for the first stop. After that I got caught---"

"What?!" Phil says cutting you off. "What do you mean you got caught?"

Shit. Shit shit shit shit shit.

"Two guys came out of a car. Held me back and sexually assaulted me." You whisper.

Phil's bright blue eyes widen. You wanted to crawl into a hole right about now. You just blurted it out. Damn you. He's gonna tell Dan. Fuck.. He's gonna tell Dan!

"Oh my...are you--"

"I'm fine Phil. Can we just change the subject?"

"Sure. Where did you go before that?"

"I went to Aidan's house. He gave me a key a while back and I just went there."

"Why? Why would you go to your dead ex boyfriends house?"

"I don't know. I guess I'm still in shock."

"Oh. All right. I wouldn't do that but.."

You could tell his strange mind was still on the incident. Once Dan wakes up you'd have to tell him. Or you could just wake him up now.

"I have to go wake up Dan. Thanks for the chat Phil!" You say suddenly.

You get off the couch and run to Dan's room. He's still fast asleep.

"Daniel James Howell get the fuck out of bed and wake up.  You swan dive by the bed on top of him.

You hear a moan from the body beneath you. Dan pulls a free arm Over his face.

"What the actual fuck (Y/N)!?"

"I need to talk to you. It's really important and I wouldn't wake you up of it wasn't important." You ramble.

"All right what is it?"

**boop boop mentioned it again.**

"Last night, right before you came to get me, something happened. Two guys came out of a car and one restrained me and the other sexually assaulted me."

That got Dan's attention. He moved you off his body and sat up.

"What.."

"Yeah.. I'm sorry."

A new emotion flashed on to his face.

"Don't you dare be sorry. That's wasn't your fault. It's never the victims fault." He says.

"Wel it was. I'm the one who ran--"

"Shut up. "

"But Dan--"

"Shut up."

"No!"

"Shut the fuck up."

Before you could open your mouth again he presses his lips to yours to keep you from objecting.

"I'll take my lips off of yours if you shut up." He says into the kiss.

He pulls back and glares at you.

"It is not your fault. You had no idea they were going to do that. But now you're not allowed outside without me." Dan says.

You just nod.

"Now I'll give you a hug and kiss. But you need to help me pack for VidCon."

"Okay."

Dan pulls you into a hug. You squeeze him tight and snuggle your face into his chest. After about a minute he pulls back and gives you a kiss.

Dan gets up and graves his suitcase from next to his wardrobe. He throws the case onto his bed. The suitcase was black and most of the clothing that will go into it will be black.

He opens the wardrobe and holds up a black sweater.

You gave a thumbs up. He tosses it to you.

"You fold them. Only because I don't know how." He says. With that.. Probably not sarcasm.

You go through some of his button downs and then it came to his leather shirt.

"Absolutely not." You say.

"Why not!? I look hot in it."

"No."

"Fine."

"I love you." You say cutely.

"I love you to (Y/N)."

You and Dan finish packing his clothing. You were right. 90% of the clothes that were packed were black. :)
