     " What?" Phil and I say at the same time. Wait, how does Phil have a shirt on?

     " Well, I figured we've been together for 3 years." Dan explains.

     " 3?" I swallow.

     " Yes 3," Dan sounds a bit angered. " You weren't there."

     " Dan are you sure about this?" Phil's face is ghost white. " I mean your 19."

     " Don't you guys understand true love?" Dan hisses. " Age doesn't matter." 

     " She's lucky," I smile reassuringly at Dan. " I'm going to take Phil to the hospital now, OK?"

     " Wait, what's wrong alcohol  poisoning?" Dan smirks.

     " No," I look at Phil. " I think some one drugged him." 

     " Whoa, really?" Dan looks at Phil.

     " Really?" Phil whispers. I hold out my hand for him to grab. He starts to get up, but cries out. He lifts up him shirt, revealing his black and blue stomach.

    " Holy shit!" Dan yells. I push past Dan in the door way and rush to the kitchen. I grab a bag of freezer burnt peas. I run back into the room and hand him the bag. He puts it on his stomach, and winces. I help him up, draping his arm over my shoulder. 

   " A little help Dan!" I spit. Dan says nothing, helping me walk with Phil.

    ~ 2 hours later ~

       " It seems your friend was slipped roofline, or the Date rape drug." He explains.

       " Seriously?  like in the hangover?" Dan asks. The doctor nods.

       " The bruises on his stomach indicate that whoever slipped him the drug, also used him at a human punching bag." The doctor frowns. " You may take him home know, just keep a good eye on him." He smiles and turns.  Dan and i walk into the room.

       " How you feeling?" I ask him. 

       " Like shit," He giggles a bit. " I want to go home. Oh, Ellie I forgot about your pageant." 

       " Don't worry. You read it wrong. It's next month." I laugh.

       " Thank god i'm blind." Phil smiles and gets up. " Let's go home."

   ~ At home ~

    " OK," Dan hopes around. " She's coming over in a few minutes!" Dan cheers. 

    " Calm down," I giggle. Dan rushes into his room to grab the ring. I grab Phil's laptop and log into my e-mail. I read the top one. 

    Pageant delayed to August first. Phil gets up and moves from one couch to the other, sitting next to me. " It's delayed?" He looks at me and smirks. " Why?"

    " I don't know. maybe there wasn't enough girls going."  I shrug.

   " Are you ok?" He whisper in my ear.

  " I want him to be happy, even if it's not with m-" I stop myself. " someone nicer."

 " Oh, Ellie," Phil pouts. " Stop."

 " What?" I glare at him.

 " Don't pull that, "I want him to be happy" bullshit. I know how you feel about Dan, even if you won't admit it." Phil scoffs.

  " He's my best friend." I smile. " Nothing more." Candy walks in wearing the tightest pink dress I've ever seen in my life. 

  " Hey," She walks over to us.
