"Hi Dan," Zoe cheered. "Do you want the usual?"
"Yes please,"
"It'll be ready in a few, love,"
"Thanks Zo,"
"No problem. Oh, and if you're looking for Phil, he's at one of the back tables,"
"Thanks," I sighed. "I'll actually just wait for my drink..."
"Is everything okay?" she asked as she started working on my beverage.
"No,"
"What's wrong?"
"My dad's making me breakup with him," I mumbled.
"Oh, I'm sorry dear," she pouted. "Here...it's on me,"
"Thanks Zoe,"
"No problem," she whispered. "Good luck,"
"Thanks..."

I took my drink and made my way to the back to find Phil sitting at our normal table. I took a seat across from him and refused to look him in the eye.

"Hi," he smiled. "How are you?"
"Fine," I lied.
"What did you want to talk about?" I dug my face in my hands as tears started to drip down my cheeks. "Dan? Are you okay?"
"No...no I'm not, Phil,"
"Why not? What's wrong?"
"We have to breakup," I said as my voice cracked.
"Oh... May I ask why?"
"My dad found out..."
"Oh," he frowned.
"I'm so sorry Phil,"
"Why? It's not your fault,"
"How are you not upset?" I cried.
"I'm heart broken..." he murmured. "I'm gonna go...do you want a ride home?"
"Yes please," I said, drying my eyes.
"Okay, let's go..."

We got into Phil's car and he drove me home; we never said a single word to each other. When he pulled up the my driveway, we let out weary sighs and looked to each other.

"I love you," he said. "I love you so much Daniel James Howell and I always will. I don't care if your father keeps pulling us apart, I will always be there for you. I will wait for you to get back from school. I will wait a thousand years for you and I hope you'll do the same for me. I love you..."
"I love you too Philip Michael Lester," I gave him a passionate kiss. "And I always will..."
"I'm going to miss you so much," he held my hand and sighed.
"Fuck me," I whispered.
"What?"
"I'm losing you, possibly forever. Please, just fuck me, one more time,"
"Dan, we're literally in your driveway... They know I'm here.... What if-"
"My parents are at work," I smiled.
"When do they get home?"
"Stacy gets home at 4:30 and dad gets home at six. Come on," I laughed. "I have lube and everything upstairs,"
"What about your brothers?"
"They'll understand," I smirked. "Come on,"
"This is not how ex-boyfriends act, Dan," he chuckled.
"Yeah, well, we're not your everyday ex-boyfriends,"
"Fair enough," he said.

He rushed out of the car, locking it behind him, and followed me up to my room.

"Dan?" Adrian called from the living room. "Is that you?"
"Yeah," I said. "Where's PJ?"
"He's with me! Stop yelling and get in here!"
"Kinda busy!"
"With what? Crying? Get in here, play some Halo, and forget about Phil!"
"Hi Ade," Phil smirked.
"Phil!" he gasped. "How have you been?" he laughed as he got up and hugged him. "It's really good seeing you again,"
"Yeah, you too,"
"Why are you here?"
"To say my final goodbyes, if you catch my drift,"
"Oh?" he raised a brow. "Oh! Ew,"
"Shut up," I hit his arm.
"Aren't you going to introduce me?" PJ asked.
"Oh, Phil, this is PJ. PJ, this is Phil," I said.
"Nice to meet you," PJ smiled.
"You're the asshole that cost us our relationship," Phil scowled.
"Oh yeah... Look, I am so sorry about that. I completely forgot about the whole situation and you have every right to be mad,"
"I don't understand why you guys don't continue your little secret meetings when Dan goes off to school,"
"Cause Ade, I'm going to a boarding school. I won't be allowed off campus and, the only time I'm able to leave is every other weekend. Lord knows, when I'm back home, dad will be keeping an eye on me,"
"You guys can still text, right?"
"Light out is at nine. They take your phone, tablet, iPod, laptop, or whatever it is you have, so no,"
"You're literally getting sent to hell,"
"Yes, yes I am. Now, if you don't mind, we're gonna go fuck. No promises on keeping it down,"
"You're gross," Adrian said.
"If dad or Stacy come home, please either send them back out for something or stall them,"
"His car is in the driveway..." Adrian raised a brow. "We kinda can't hide a car,"
"There's a big parking lot a few blocks away," Phil said. "I can park it there and come back,"
"Fine," I sighed. "But hurry back,"
"I will," he said as we headed for the door.
"I'll be naked and stretched for you when you get back," I whispered as I bit his earlobe.
"God, I love you," he said as he kissed me. "I'll be back in like ten,"
"I'll be here," I smiled as he left the house.
