"CANNN YOU FEEEEL THE LOOOOOVVVEE TONIIIIGHTTT?!?!"

I plug my ears with my fingers, trying to avoid listening to Dan singing in the shower. The most I can hear now is distant humming. Then, it's all quiet. Assuming he's stopped, I unplug my ears. Hearing nothing but the shower, I sigh in relief. 'Thank God,' I think to myself. But, I thought too soon.

"I CAN SHOW YOU THE WORLD, SHINING, SHIMMERING, SPLENDIDDD!!!"

...How am I bearing this?

"DANIEL, WILL YOU SHUT UP? I AM TRYING TO EAT IN PEACE!" I scream down the hall.

"NO, I HAVE THE X-FACTOR!" I hear. Rolling my eyes, I don't even try to reply.

"Here's a llama, there's a llama, and another little llama, fuzzy llama, funny llama, llama llama duck!"

I groan, simultaneously banging my head on the table.

"Hey- are you okay?" I turn around to see a freshly clothed Phil. He seems so calm and relaxed, his presence just makes me calm, too. "I'm fine, but Dan just won't shut up in that shower, will he?"

"Yeah, just ignore him," Phil advises. I nod, and quietly nibble on the dessert of brownies. Dan and Phil had made them a few days ago, which I was excluded from since there is a 99.99% of me burning the whole building down.

Phil clears his throat, "Umm, so, you fancy taking a walk with me?"

I answer 'yes' happily. After grabbing our jackets from our rooms, we head out the front door.

The rain has stopped, only a light sprinkling. The dark clouds are started to drift away with the wind, bringing out just a hint of a ray of sunshine. Although, it's still somewhat chilly. Shivers run down my back. As if sensing this, Phil gives me a big hug. Warmth. Warmth and love is all I feel. I snuggle deeper into his embrace, never wanting his arms to let go.

Does Dan really have the X-Factor? The world will never know.

Who else here really wants a hug from Phil? Comment!
