Phil's POV

Each step is closer to the flat. Each step is closer and closer, and I begin to start to count my own steps, to distract me from stress. 

What are we supposed to do with a kid? I'm typically the one ready to give my everything, but how are we supposed to take care of her. Surely we aren't going to keep her longer than a week, but what are we supposed to do with her? We could give her to authorities, but I can't do that. Needless to say the foster system is crap, but... What else can we do?

My thoughts are interrupted when I see the flat before us. When I unlock the door, warm air surrounds me, and I remember how cold it was outside, as I rush in to avoid the London air. The young girl looks shocked by all the colours, and I don't very much blame her. We do have quite an overwhelming place. 

"Here, you can stay upstairs in the guest room, I'll show you up there, and you can get settled in, and Phil and I can make you some food, okay? Feel free to use the bathroom or do whatever. We'll be over here in the kitchen." Dan. Dan is who I love. He doesn't know. He won't know.

As Dan and Blair walk upstairs, I make my way to the kitchen and begin on the food. (If you were wondering what food it is it's a burrito you fatties. Jk ily) 

Soon enough Dan comes striding down the stairs, and grabs a soft drink (That's soda for you American Weirdos) and stands next to me.

"Is she settling in okay?" I ask him, still concentrated on the food I am preparing.

"Yeah, she's doing fine. I don't know why I offered her to stay here without even a glance of approval, I just... She needs help I can see it in her eyes." Dan is so kind. Dan is so nice. But actually what are we going to do? I can't just up and take a kid, isn't that illegal

"Okay Dan, it's okay, just, what are we going to do. We have to at least attempt to find her parents. It's kind of illegal not to." I say.

"I know, we'll try to figure things out tomarrow. Tonight, we just need her to feel at home." As I said before. 

Dan is nice. 

Dan is caring. 

I love Dan



But he doesn't love me.
