Phoenix Howell- Goodbyes and Hellos

Dan and Phil

Phil's POV-
We were sitting in the airport, Dan crouched over with his hands supporting his head in his arms. I'm nervous, not only for the safety of Phoenix who has become a sister of mine also, but for Dan. I know that he's blaming himself.
I put my hand on his shoulder, he looks up at me and gives me a small smile. I feel a tingle in my stomach and butterflies start to erupt. Ive always had feelings for Dan. I was never quite sure what they were. I never gave much thought of the possibility I could be gay and I never brought up those feelings and thoughts to Dan because I wasn't too particularly sure how he would react.
"It's not your fault" I say quietly.
"We should've watched her more, we should've loved and cared for her more, maybe she would still have been here Phil."
"It's her decisions that she is making, the important part is that we are ensuring she is safe and getting her out of there,"
"I know, thanks Phil"
"No problem home slice" I say trying not to laugh at my emence to be cool.
"Oh my god Phil"
"What"
"I just love you"
Did he just say...that he loves me?
"What" I say again
Dan looks flustered and looks down at the floor
"Oh...uh..love ya man...I guess." He says awkwardly playing off what he said.
I looked at him, he was trying to play off the awkward moment cool. The next thing that happened was something I never thought in a million years that I would do. I did it on a single impulse. I lifted my hand and softly grasped Dan's chin. I slowly moved his face, continuing until our faces only centimeters away from each other, I could feel his breath, the sweet smell of his gum hitting just underneath my nose.
"Daniel, everything is going to be okay. You are strong, she is strong. None of this is your fault and she will be okay. I...I love you Dan. I mean that," and without a single thought in my mind I kissed him.
