My Youth is Yours (Phil x Reader)

17 June, 2005

Your POV

"Y/N!" My mum bursts into my room, cutting off my song and looking like she'd just been told she could play an important role in the next Harry Potter film. I put down my guitar as she runs towards me, a letter in hand.

She hands me the letter and I stare down at it, a grin creeping onto my face.

Oxford University.

With butterflies going crazy in my stomach, I tare open the envelope and read the text.

I look up, mouth agape and in shock. Mum smiles hopefully down at me. Suddenly, I jump up and wrap my arms tightly around her and scream over and over, "I got in!"

~Time skip~

"Phil, I have news," I grin as I into my best friend's eyes on the screen.

This time of the day is always the best time of the day. It was the time of the day when I got to Skype Phil and tell him all about what's happened since the moment the last call ended and vice versa.

"Gerard Way is down on his knees with a ring in hand, asking to be with you forever? Tell him to back off."

"I wish," I laugh. "But it's more important than that."

"Who are you and where's Y/N? Since when is anything more important to you than Gerard Way?"

I hold up the letter, a huge grin plastered on my face.

"I got in, Phil!"

His warm smile instantly fades and his blue eyes darken.

"O-oxford? In London?" I can hear the hurt in his voice, causing my heart to drop.

"I-I'm really sorry, Phil. I know we had our plans but... this is a big deal to me. I really, really want to be a singer a-and Mum thinks it's best to start off early and-"

"It's fine, Y/N. It's not like we'd get anywhere, anyway. Neither of us have cars, or even a license, and it's not like we have a fortune, either. You go to Oxford. You become a singer. Just promise to visit me when you can and maybe one day, if I get the money, I'll move to London and we can have a flat together."

I blink back tears and smile gratefully. "I would love nothing more. And you follow your Youtube dream. I expect to see great things from you, my amazing Phil."

~Moving day~

"I'm going to miss you, PJ," I mumble into my friends shoulder.

"So am I. Do me a favour," he releases me and his green lock onto mine, hands on my shoulders. "Work hard and follow that dream you never shut up about. I expect to have an album with your name on it next time I see you. And find that friend of yours."

"I will." The honk of the horn of my mum's car causes us to jump. I give PJ one last hug and run to the car. "Keep using that brilliant, crafty mind of yours, kiddo!" I shout as we drive away, a huge grin plastered on my face.

Time to start my life...

~Time skip~

Bzz bzz.

The buzz of my phone snaps me out of my daze. London may not be Paris or space, but it is still absolutely marvelous and breath taking.

I manage to take my eyes off the huge buildings outside the passenger seat window and turn on my phone.

Phil x: Are you in London yet?

Y/N: Yes, it's amazing! But scary. I knew it was big but damn!

Phil x: Haha, hope you have fun x. Please try not to die.

Y/N: I'll try not to. For you.

About a minute passes before I am blessed by yet another text from the sweetest and most amazing person in the whole universe.

Phil x: I love you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's amazing what can happen in a matter of seconds.

One second you could be smiling down at a text from the love of your life, about to tell him you love him too.

The next could be followed by the scream of your mother, the sound of metal crunching against metal, the sound of glass shattering. The feeling of fear, pain, and the feeling of your heart thumping against your chest at an extremely high rate. In just a matter of seconds, disaster occurs and your life changes... forever...
