Dan's POV
My first day was nothing special the only thing that made it special was him. Phil. Coming in halfway through the first semester I'll admit is weird, but Phil made it feel a lot less awkward.

     "Wow Phil, you really made my first day a whole lot easier. I would have ended up making friends with a kid who only has warts for a face if it wasn't for you. I guess you really are my best friend now." I get everything I need out of my locker and put it in my backpack. "I guess I really did help. Do you want to come over to my house?" Phil suggested. "That would be delightful."
Wow, first day and I'm already going to someone's house. I bet my mom's gonna think that I bribed someone to be my friend.

Phil's POV
Did I really just ask this kid that I barely know
to come over to my house? How psychotic am I?
I just can't believe he said yes, let alone be delighted to come over.

   "Hey mum!" I yelled. "Yes Philly?" she called back. "I have a friend over from school. His name is Dan. We're gonna head upstairs!"
Dan and I head to my room. "This is my room. Sorry about the mess." I start to clean up my messy room. "No, you don't have to clean up. You should see my room, it's way worse than yours." He grabs my wrist gently and makes me put the clothes down. His touch sends shivers down my spine. He awkwardly retracts his wrist.
"So, you wanna play some video games? I've got all of the classics." I gesture to my shelf of games. "Let's play some Sonic." Dan grabs Sonic off of the shelf and puts it into the console. We played for what seemed like hours.
We finally stopped playing Sonic and went downstairs for a snack. "Hey mum, where are the chips? They were on the counter." I questioned. She guiltily smiled and admitted she ate them all.

Dan's POV
Phil's house is really nice compared to mine. I guess that's what happens when you're poor.

   "Hey, Phil. I gotta get home, my parents are probably worried sick about me." I check my phone. 3 missed calls from Dad. "This was fun!" Phil showed me out and I went home.
