~This idea comes from @GravityWillFall01 ! It's such a great idea! ^~^ ~

Philip walked down the street with his beautiful girlfriend. She just so happened to be you. The two of you strolled along hand-in-hand. You reached Philip's apartment. "Well, here you go!" You grinned, expecting a goodbye kiss.
Nothing.
Nothing.
Nothing.
Philip didn't kiss you.
Eh. Maybe he had some important stuff to do or something.
Who knows?
Anyways, you shrugged it off, walking home. Philip had always been pretty affectionate. You couldn't figure out what was going on. You walked into your apartment. You checked the answering machine to see if you'd missed any calls. There were three messages.
"Call Number One: "HEY (Y/N)! It's Theodosia! I was calling to see if you wanted me to pick up dinner or anything. I'm on my way over to your apartment building to hang out with the P.Dawg. I'm stopping by (fast food joint). Call me!" : End Call Number One."
"Call Number Two: "Hello (Y/N)! I'm calling to remind you about our business meeting Thursday morning. OH! Don't forget to bring the little cracker packs. You know my favorites. Anyways, see you Thursday. It's Tony." : End Call Number Two."
"Call Number Three: "(Y/N)! It's Mama! I was just calling to say I hope you've had a nice day. Love you!~" : End Call Number Three."
You inhaled sharply.
"P.Dawg...That's Philip... Hrm."
Philip and Theo had always been pretty close. Lately, however, it seemed as though they were a little bit too close. Philip was getting to where he almost avoided you. Heck, you had to beg him to walk you home today. Usually he stayed back with..Theo.
Everything began clicking.
Philip had to be cheating. It was the only possible solution. Maybe..Maybe he just liked Theo...
Surely she wouldn't steal her best friend's boyfriend..
Right?
The thought brought an upset feeling to your stomach. You laid on your sofa, sighing softly.
It would all be alright.
~~
It's been four days. Philip hasn't called or texted. Sure, you get calls from Theo telling you she's headed to his place, but that's it. Nothing from Philip himself, that's for sure. You were starting to get worried. You tried not to think too hard about it. You didn't want to seem clingy or anything..
It'll be okay.
~~
It's been six days now. You called Philip twice. It went to voicemail.
He changed his message.
Instead of you two saying it, it's him and Theo.
It really hurts you to think about it.
It'll be okay.
~~
Ten days. In a row.
Philip picked up once, but Theo answered the actual phone. You could hear Philip giggling in the background.
It'll be okay.
You think.
~~
Fourteen days. It's been two weeks since he even responded to any of your texts. He hasn't been out. You decided to visit his apartment.
*Knock Knock*
You knocked on the door. You sighed a breath of relief when someone answered...
It wasn't Philip.
It was Mr.Hamilton. It was Philip's dad.
He asked if you wanted to come in. You happily agreed.
Mr.Hamilton offered you a drink. You accepted, receiving a grape soda (Sorry, but I really love grape soda). You sipped it quietly.
"Mr.Hamilton?"
"Yes, (Y/N)?"
"Is Philip home?"
"I'm sorry, but he's out with Theodosia. Not quite sure what they're doing, to be honest." Mr. Hamilton chuckled softly to himself. "Those two sure did hit it off.."
Your eyes began to water. Your mouth felt dry. You laughed bitterly, trying to hide the pain that was stabbing you oh-so angrily in the chest.
"D-Did you know that emotional trauma can be bad not only mentally, but ph-physically? Your heart strings can...can...wear out..."
*Umpf*
You blacked out.
Everything's not okay.
~~
"(Y-Y/N)?" A voice called through the darkness.
You opened your eyes to find a hospital room. Philip sat at your side, tears running down his face. You could see that he'd been crying for a while, as proven by the tears on his shirt.
As your eyes opened, his widened. He began peppering your face with kisses, covering your face with tears in the process. "Philip..." You hiccuped through the tears that had managed to escape your eyes.
Philip kissed your lips softly, bringing you towards him. "Pop called me when he had called the ambulance.. you passed out while talking to him... I'm sorry.."
Tears continued to fall.
"Philip..D-Do you like Theo..?"
For a moment, Philip's breathing stopped.
"Do I like Theo..?"
"Yeah.."
"No, no, no!" He kissed your face over and over, tears running down his face swiftly. "(Y/N), she was helping me with something..."
"Can you please tell me? I'm worried.."
"Guess now's as good a time as ever."
Philip knelt down beside the hospital bed, pulling out a ring. Your breathing hitched.
This was it.
Philip's mouth had barely opened before it met yours once more. You simply nodded, kissing him over and over.
Now it'll be okay.
