"I promise" [Phan]

bring me flowers

"Why did you just run up to your room last night?" Mrs Howell walked over to the cream coloured fridge, glancing over at her son who was staring at the cereal in front of him. Dan wouldn't usually eat that much. He didn't want to starve himself or anything, he just didn't like eating.

Without even realising his mum was talking to him, he began gently humming a random tune. Probably an anime theme song, since he seemed to like anime a lot. His mother coughed which made him look up straight away. Dan and his parents didn't get along all too well, but he preferred his mum to his dad since his dad was horrible to him.

"Dan, when I'm talking to you the polite thing to do is acknowledge me, it's like i don't even exist to you!" She said with an angry tone in her voice, rolling her eyes and walking out of the door. Feeling bad butterflies in his tummy, Dan bit his lip gently. He knew she wasn't going to do anything, but that didn't mean he wasn't nervous. After a while of staring down at his cereal, contemplating whether he should eat it or not, he got up and drained the milk in the metal sink before throwing the cereal in the bin.

Text Message from unknown
Are you sure you don't want me to come over? We can just watch movies and relax? Remember i'm here for you princess whenever you need me okay? xxx

Dan rolled his eyes, not even in the mood to reply to that boy. Ever since the last breakup he went through he'd been making sure he wouldn't fall in love with an idiot again, and he definitely didn't want to fall in love with this idiot. He rushed back upstairs and sat at his desk to begin applying his cute makeup. Before he began he quickly began texting Phil back, contemplating on what to say. He bit his lip and sighed.

Okay, come over in half an hour and bring me flowers

Dan didn't even realise he'd sent that until after he pressed the send button, clasping his hand over his mouth and blushing deeply.

I mEan you don't have to I was joking heh just come over you don't have to get me flowers

He quickly typed and threw his phone onto his bed. Sighing and hoping it worked, he finally began applying his makeup. Once he was done, he glanced at his face in the mirror. Usually when he did his makeup he would only wear eyeliner, but this time he also wore highlight on his nose which complimented his thousands of adorable freckles scattered over his nose and upper cheeks.

After a couple of minutes he heard his phone buzz twice, squealing like an excited teenage girl and rushing over to look at the text.

Babe I'm getting you flowers you can't stop me, what kind of flowers do you like? xx

Dan felt his whole face practically turn into a tomato, quickly realising how he was acting. He was..excited to see this boy? Excited to even receive a text from him? He promised himself he wouldn't fall in love with an idiot ever again, though.

I like purple tulips

Before he knew it, they were texting back and forth for about 10 minutes.

Phil: why? because tulips are better than one? xx
Dan: you're such a flirt, you don't even know me that well :))
Phil: ok tell me about yourself x
Dan: no
Read 9:27am
Dan: where are you
Phil: I got you the tulips princess, I'm coming over in 10 x
Dan: I'm not a princess
