Ch. 16

[Dan POV]

Our noses resting upon eachother, I stare into his ocean blue eyes as he stares into my dull brown ones. I smile and look away as I feel heat rise to my cheeks. I usually do this whenever I make eye contact with someone for a really long time, but because it was Phil made it worse.

He holds my face in his soft hands, drawing unknown patterns softly into my cheek, resulting in my cheeks fading into a darker pink hue. I nuzzle my face into the crook of his neck in attmpt to hide it. A low, soft giggle fills my ears as Phil pulls me closer to his chest. I play with his shirt as I take in his sweet scent.

I feel Phil tangle his pale fingers in my short, chocolate hair. I bite my lip, trying to hold back a smile, a smirk creeping over my lips instead, although no one can see it.

It feels strange to meet someone you met just days ago, who happens to be the most beautiful human alive, then be cuddled up to them.

Let's just emphasize the only days ago.

If I wasn't such an antisocial little bitch, it would've probably been so much longer until we met. I'm extremely thankful that Phil stood up for me that one time. Most people just sit and laugh at me. Phil is the only person who has stood up for me in my whole life, which makes me both sad and happy and the same time.

I feel Phil jolt away slightly, staring into my dull eyes with his vibrant ones.

"Danny, are you alright? I didn't upset you did I? I'm so-"

"Phil? What are you talking about?"

"Y... You're crying..." I wipe my face, only to find it was true. I laugh at myself for not realising. I wrap my arms around his neck, placing a kiss on his cheek.

"Would you look at that? I didn't even notice. Don't worry about me, Philly. It's happy tears." I choke out between tears and chuckles.

"I always worry about you," he sighs, sounding relieved. "What were you thinking about, bear?" I blush at the nickname.

"Just how you stood up for me a few days ago when we both got kicked out," I say, chuckling for reasons I am not sure of. "You're the first one who's done that, you know? They would all leave me and laugh at me."

"That's horrible, Dan. I couldn't just leave you there, I had to do something. Especially since it was Mrs Pates. The bitch will freaking stab you if she got the chance. Someone has to do something." I smile, moving so our noses are touching.

"Thank you, Phil,"

Everything seems calm and perfect, for now.

Guys... 300 reads... Thank you guys! I thought I would be lucky to get 100 within 6 months but today (23rd Feb) marks one month of this book being published. So thanks again!

Also sorry for the short chapter, I'm so fucking tired and I have to be up again in 6 hours for band rehearsal, but it's a fluffy one so...

Also question of the day; Do you prefer fluff or smut?
