[No] Homo

Chapter Thirteen

December 15th, 1943

Manchester, England

Dan huffed out a breath of air and he saw it form in the air. He laughed, his breath showing even more. Phil laughed with him and watched his lover. Over the month the two boys had made a deal with Phil and his smoking.

Phil hadn't smoked since that day, and he regretted the whole thing.

Dan grabbed his hand and pulled him along.

"C'mon." Dan whispered as they took yet another walk through the woods. Phil moved to keep up with him and walked beside him.

"We're still heading home later, right?" Dan asked and Phil nodded, letting go of his hand as campus came into view.

"When we get home, I'm gonna fuck you real nice." Phil whispered into Dan's ear as he walked off to his room. Dan shivered and grinned, walking off to his own. He spent almost no time in his own dorm, he barely had anything there. The only thing he had was a couple items of clothing and that was about it.

He unlocked his room and walked in, shivering. He packed up all he had in his trunk and walked back out, dragging his trunk along to Phil's dorm. He knocked, nodding at someone who walked by and Phil swung open the door. He was smiling, his stuff all packed into his own trunk and Dan let himself in.

"Maybe I should just move in with you," Dan said as he grabbed his own clothes from Phil's wardrobe and packed them into his own things.

The two cleaned up Phil's room for the Christmas holiday and left to the trains. They walked side by side as they started to leave the campus, talking and laughing.

"Phil! Wait up!" someone called out. It was PJ, Phil's friend, and he ran to the couple walking.
He smiled at them both and carried his backpack on his back.

"You guys headed home for the holiday?" PJ asked and they nodded.

"Back to my mum's place for Christmas," Dan said, lying of course and PJ nodded.

"Yeah, my girlfriend is coming home with me and then I'm gonna meet her parents." PJ gloated about his "girlfriend", Sophia, that no one has ever met before.

"She sounds nice," Phil commented as the bus to the train station came into view. PJ nodded and rambled on about what he was doing for holiday and the two pretended to be interested. PJ could go on for ages.

"Well, I guess I'll catch you guys later! See you next year," PJ winked badly and turned the opposite direction and walked off. Phil laughed and waved goodbye and Dan waved as well.

"Gotta love PJ,"

"Eh, I guess," Dan joked.

Stockport, England

After a short bus ride to the train station and a quick train ride, the boys finally arrived home. Dan smiled brightly as Phil swung open their flats door and they walked in. Dan sighed in relief and set his trunk down, going and lying himself on the couch.

"I've missed our home," Dan smiled and Phil walked into the living room too. He smiled down at his loved and sat on the edge by Dan's feet.

"Me too," Phil replied and Dan sat up, scooting over to his boyfriend.

"I think this is gonna work out." Dan said as he leaned in to kiss Phil. Phil kissed him sweetly.

"Of course it's gonna work out," Phil stated. "We are a total secret. Everything is okay,"

Phil lied.
