secret soulmates // phan

twenty three.

sorry i haven't updated in a while, i was quite busy! also dan changed his username so let's just pretend that the dan in this story got bored of danisnotonfire and his channel is now called daniel howell bye

Dan
"That is the coolest thing ever. I'm so jealous!" Pj says.

"Maybe you'll get a soulmate, my soulmate is older than I am. You could get one when you're older."

"I hope so! You're so lucky. Also, can't you just.. like.. if you're taking an exam and you don't know the answer, can't your soulmate just google and tell you?" Pj asks.

"That's actually so smart, why didn't I think of that?" I laugh. I'm not going to use it a lot, though. I get quite good grades on my own, but maybe Sun could use some help.

Phil
"Phil?! Phil! Phil oh god Phil you definitely broke it oh Phil–"

"Cat. Don't worry, just keep driving so we'll reach the hospital soon."

"But pHIL you hurt yourself why what how I—"

I roll my eyes. This isn't helping.

"Look, Cat, I kind of have a massive headache right now so can you please calm down a little? I'm okay."

"Of course. Sorry. We're here. Do you want me to go with you?" She asks.

"I'm good, it won't take that long. You can drive back home. I'm an adult, I can take care of myself."

"Okay, good luck!"

Carefully, I get out of the car while holding onto my wrist. It hurts so badly. I take a shaky breath and walk into the big white building.

...

I enter my house. Turns out, my wrist was broken indeed. Great.
Carefully, I take off my coat and my shoes. Maybe I can avoid Cat, I really can't deal—

"PHIL! oMg! It's broken?! Is it? Is it?"

Sigh.

"Yeah, it is. I'm going to take some rest, if you don't mind."

"Of course!!! Sorry!!"

I run upstairs as fast as I can. Cat can be very caring, but it's a little too much.
When I sit down on my office chair, I realize I haven't talked to Dan at all. I didn't even message him! Has he uploaded his first video yet?

I quickly type in "Daniel Howell" on YouTube (rip) and click on his channel.

His video is there! His first video!

After watching it, I give it a thumbs up and decide to tweet it.

"Hey guys! My friend @danielhowell made his first YouTube video. I'd love it if you'd check it out :)"

Then, I go to Skype. I press call, hoping Dan will pick up.
After a few seconds, his excited face shows up.

"Phil! Thank you so much for tweeting out my video! Did you enjoy it?"

"I did! It was amazing."

Suddenly, I see Dan's facial expression turn from happy to shocked.

"What happened to your arm?"

"I.. fell down the stairs. Typical me. I broke my wrist, I've just come back from the hospital."
