"Come on now, it's getting late." Phil laughed, pushing Dan's face away playfully. "If we don't get out of here soon we're gonna be positively shriveled."

Dan sighed dramatically, smiled and swam to the side of the pool where a small silver ladder was placed. He stepped out and shook himself off, squeezing the water from his fringe. Phil followed suit and grabbed the backpack. "Ready?"

"Mhm." Dan nodded, planting a small kiss on Phil's cheek before grabbing his hand and pulling him over to the thin picket wire fence that surrounded the pool area. "High tech security." he chuckled sarcastically.

"I hope we don't get zapped...it may be rigged to look harmless." Phil mumbled, breaking a twig off of the nearest tree. "Let's check to be certain."

Dan sighed again. "Always super-safe, Phil. Take a risk!"

"Fine, get electrocuted and bloody die then. I'll stand here and travel there myself."

"You wouldn't make it 20 minutes without me." Dan cooed, tracing a soft finger along Phil's jawline. "Just admit it, I'm your rock."

"If you mean a heavy boulder that sits around all day, then yes, you are correct." Phil smirked, his eyes following every one of Dan's small movements.

"Oooh, sassy Phil." he chuckled, sliding the stick from Phil's hand and chucking it at the fence. "See? No shock, no nothin. We're good, babe."

"You're touching it first." Phil said, laughing after realizing what he had just said. (huehuehue I'm such a dirty person)

Dan raised an eyebrow and laughed. "Okay then. Kiss for luck?"

"You're such a sap." Phil laughed. Yet as Dan rolled his eyes and started towards the fence, Phil grabbed his shoulder and pulled him close, pressing his lips softly onto Dan's. Dan opened his eyes in surprise, originally intending the idea as a joke, but closed them and put his hands on Phil's waist, deepening the kiss. Phil smiled against his lips.

Dan licked Phil's lower lip, asking for entrance and Phil obliged. Phil ran his fingers through Dan's hair, content. After a minute or so, they separated; both taking big breaths and laughing.

"That was an...exciting experience." Dan giggled, walking to the fence and kicking it. "No shock, buckoo."

"I guess you were right then." Phil smiled, grabbing a piece of fence to hold onto and sticking his foot into another. Once both boys were over they walked to the car.

Dan jumped into the driver's side and pulled out of the gardenway. "Should we go to the flat to get washed off? Everything's already packed and ready."

"Umm, I think we're fine, just grab our bags and go. We don't have much time anyways. The police should be onto us already." Phil smiled, rubbing his hands together. "I'm excited."

"I am too, love. You sure you packed all of it?"

"Mhm. I'm sure."

"Perfect." Dan chuckled, pulling to the side of the road in front of the apartment building and parking the car. "Let's go fast, I can hear the sirens already."

"I've always loved the sound, you know. A high scream of pain, telling a story of heartbreak and death, sadness and grief, speeding down the street on four wheels. Nothing can stop it, except one red light that can mean life and death for some. Everyone is frantic, and the siren is normally a sign to notify panic, and you know how much we love panic!" Phil giggled, twirling a bit as Dan opened the door and laughed. (I just got a huge Harley Quinn vibe from that and I liked it -- oh and I'm seeing Suicide Squad soon so yayyyyy)

"Pan·ic, noun - sudden uncontrollable fear or anxiety, often causing wildly unthinking behavior." Dan recited, closing the door to their flat. "Fear, my favorite word." he sighed, smiling.

"Fear, noun - an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat." Phil chimed in, throwing Dan his bag. "We're feared, and it's fun."

"Very."

(I've never been on a plane so I'm just gonna skip the security part -- just a little thing though, they [somehow] got onto the plane with their guns, so they're taking them to where they're going ooohhhh suspicion)

Phil plopped down into his window seat and sighed. "Only a 8 hour flight."

"Yeah, but it's what we've been wanting, correct? And we didn't even have to pay for it. Parliament did." Dan smiled.

"That is true." Phil replied.

"Relax, precious. You're too tense. Just think about yesterday. Blowing out that guards brains?" Dan laughed, kissing Phil on the ear.

"That was fun." Phil giggled, his nose crinkling in happiness. "Okay, you better not fall asleep during the movie or I'm leaving without you when we get off."

"I won't."
