Dan Howell

I bit my lip hard and looked at Phil Lester. We went to college together and ended up working in the same firm. We work in the film industry, we aren't best friends but if say we're friends. He's been over to my house a couple times and I've been to his once or twice.

I knew enough about him to know that he hasn't been on a date since day three of college when I met him.

I have no idea what sexuality he is so how am I supposed to make a move if I don't even know if he likes dick?

Phil was at the front of the room doing a big presentation.

If I drag this silly crush along longer then it has to go, it might be too late.

I thought not removing my eyes from Phils body.

I'll ask him out today.

He finished and everyone applauded. I clapped the loudest. I appreciate his voice better then anyone else.

He sat down next to me and scooted forward to the table.

"That was fantastic Phil."

"You think so? I feel like I barely even had a full speech prepared just a few paragraphs." He scratched the back of his head.

So cute.

"So Phil can you allow me to treat you to dinner tonight for that amazing speech?"

"It's a date!" He said happily.

Yes!

"Awesome, I'll pick you up at eight."

"Perfect." He smiled at me then bit the tip of his pen.

So sexy.

I got to Phils door wearing a semi-casual outfit. He opened the door and I handed him a white flower.

"Bonjour Phil."

"Hola Dan. Let's go!" He looked amazing, drop dead gorgeous. Same thing he wore to work but without a jacket or tie and jeans instead of dress pants.

We got into my car and I drove us to the restaurant.

The date went off without a hitch bonding over our common interests and I loved every moment.

A few hours later we were back at his door laughing.

"Thanks for dinner Dan."

"Thanks for going out with me." We were silent so I edged in closer, my eyes fluttered closed. Our lips met and I swear, on my life, he kissed back. I felt his hand touch my face, and I felt his mouth move against mine. But three seconds later he pulled away.

"I- I'm sorry I'm not gay Dan!"

"Oh I'm so sorry, I should go."

"I- I'll see you tomorrow."

I walked away embarrassed.

Phil Lester kissed me back, I know he did. How to make him realize I hadn't a clue.
