You looked through your wardrobe trying to work out what to wear to Pj's party, you decided to go after all. You sighed remembering that day two weeks ago now.

You could feel Phil's warm breath on your lips as you inched closer to his face, it was finally happening. All of a sudden a loud noise stopped you from your actions, your head whipped to your right, and you realised it was the tv. You turned back to Phil a disappointed look drawn on his face, you looked down at your lap and sighed. There was an awkward tension in the air, Phil began to rub the back of his neck and you awkwardly shifted off his lap. You left the room and went to the bathroom. The worst part about the whole situation was that it was silent. Everything you did was done in complete quiet, neither of you said anything and the only sound that was made was the sound of the tv and the shuffling of clothes. You sat in the bathroom for what seemed like the longest time, then you quietly opened the door and knocked on Dan's door, "come in." He called from his room, you opened the door, "I'm going to leave now, I'll see you guys soon I guess. Bye." You rushed out, quickly closing the door after you and going back to the living room. You saw Phil with his shoulders slouched and shaking his head, still in the same spot as before, you opened your mouth to say something but nothing came out. You closed your mouth again and left their apartment.

You hadn't talked to Dan or Phil since that day, it was too awkward. Obviously, Dan had heard about what happened with you and Phil but you didn't know how to face them. Did you act like it never happened? Do you actually kiss? Do you pronounce your undying love for- Wait, you love Phil? You LOVE PHIL!

You were going to go to Pj's party out of pure politeness but now you had a mission make Phil yours!

You decided to wear (1, 2, 3, 4), maybe it would impress Phil... You made sure that you did your makeup all fancy and such, you styled your hair as best you could considering you were no hairdresser. Once you were finally ready you stepped back and took a good look at yourself.

You smiled, genuinely satisfied with the way you looked. You called a cab and waited outside of your apartment, with Pj's gift and your purse. It was a nice night, cool with an abnormally warm breeze, the change in weather was strange but you welcomed it. A few minutes later the cab pulled up and you climbed inside. You were excited to see Dan and Phil, especially Phil after what had happened. A small grin grew on your face as you thought of what could be.

"Excited are we?" A voice said snapping you out of your thoughts, it was the cab driver, he was an old man with weather-beaten skin and a charming smile. He looked as though he had lived a fulfilling life, which made you wonder what he was doing as a cab driver.

"Oh yes, very much so," you replied.

"I can see, is it a boy?" The man's sudden question caught you off guard.

"I beg your pardon, what did you say?"

"Are you going to meet a boy? I can tell, that grin is one of a woman who is in love." He replied a knowing grin spread across his face as he looked at you through the rear vision mirror. You blushed and diverted your eyes to your hands.

"Yes," you replied timidly.

The man simply chuckled and returned his gaze back to the road. You soon arrived at the party venue, which was a ballroom at a hotel.

You paid the man and before you turned around he said, "a man who has lived a fulfilling life should return to simplicity before the reaper visits, good luck my dear."

You were unsure as to what you should do so you smiled and thanked him before turning to the entrance of the party.

The cab drove away and you took a deep breath. You walked up to the door and knocked, a very happy and slightly tipsy Pj answered the door.

"Y/N! You made it, you look beautiful!" Pj exclaimed opening the door further and letting you in.

"Thank-you Pj, happy birthday," you reply handing him the gift you had brought him.

"Well, don't just stand here Y/N, mingle," Pj encouraged shuffling you into the party. You walked into the large ballroom, it was filled with people and covered in decorations, Pj walked excitedly behind you. "Peej!" You heard someone call, then another of his many friends greeted him. Just before the birthday boy was pulled away he whispered in your ear, "a little bird told me Phillip's been looking for you Y/N," and with that he disappeared. You blushed a little and looked up to see the infamous duo, Daniel James Howell and Phillip Michael Lester.

All of your confidence and plans melted away like butter on a hot day, your legs became jelly yet they still were able to carry you over to the boys. Suddenly you were standing in front of them.

"Hey stranger," Dan smirked.

"Hey Dan, hey Phil," you replied nervously.

"So I'm not going to ask you where you've been for the last two weeks but I'm going to assume there is a proper reason Phil has been talking about you non-stop yet not letting me contact you."

You looked over to a now embarrassed Phil, "...um I guess so..." you mumbled.

"You know what I feel like there is some unresolved tension between you two, so I'm going to go and talk to..." Dan's eyes scanned the room he spotted Louise and pointed to her, "Louise. So kiss and make-up you two." He said disappearing into the crowd.

"So..."
