Phanecdotes

❁ Garbage Man ❁

"I love you, garbage man."

"Wow, I'm literally such a failure," Dan moaned as he was cleaning up his split cereal off the kitchen floor.

Phil was still bent over laughing, watching his boyfriend grumble as he picked up the mess he made. The face that Dan made as the bowl of cereal slipped from his hand was priceless. Thankfully, the bowl didn't break and Dan didn't get hurt, making it okay for Phil to laugh.

"Why do I mess up everything that I attempt to do?" Dan whined, standing up and throwing away the dirty napkin, before turning to fill his bowl again.

"You don't mess up everything bear, you aren't a failure," Phil replied, noticing the sullen look on Dan's face.

"Yeah, and death isn't inevitable," Dan sassily said, adding some milk to his cereal, because like a normal person, he puts cereal into his bowl before his milk.

"You're just a tad bit clumsy, but I'll always be there to catch you when you fall," Phil said, walking towards Dan and wrapping his arms around the younger lad from behind and pressing a kiss to the back of Dan's head.

Dan let out a long sigh, before turning around in Phil's arms and hugging him back.

"Thanks. I love you, garbage man," Dan smiled, pressing a chaste kiss to Phil's pale cheek, before grabbing his bowl of cereal and making his way to the lounge.

"I love you too," Phil called out, a confused look making it's way on his face, but he couldn't help but feel offended at the rude nickname. But he just shrugged it off and followed his boyfriend into the lounge to rewatch Totoro.

"Hey Dan, do you want to film a ga-" Phil paused, seeing his boyfriend hunched over on his bed, tears running down his face.

"Leave me alone," Dan whimpered, wiping furiously at his face.

"Bear, what's wrong?" Phil asked tentatively, walking into the dark room and sitting down at the foot of the bed.

"Nothing Phil," Dan said hastily, slamming his laptop shut, making the room completely dark.

Phil stood and walked towards the light switch, turning it on. The room filled with brightness and Dan's red eyes and tear stained face were prominent. Phil raced towards Dan's side, wrapping his long arms around Dan's slender figure. Dan melted into Phil's touch, burying his head into Phil's neck and accepting his embrace.

Phil felt his heart snap as sobs wracked through Dan's body. The ebony haired boy held back his own tears as he gently shushed Dan, running his fingers gently through his hair. Phil noticed the laptop perched on Dan's lap, and slowly shifted their position so he could get to it.

"Phil, please don't," Dan said weakly, but making no effort to grab the laptop away from Phil.

Phil shook his head lightly, placing a kiss on Dan's forehead, before pulling away from their embrace to open Dan's laptop. When the screen loaded, it was no surprise that a tab for Youtube was pulled up. Dan had been scrolling through the comments of his newest video, and some people were commenting some rude things towards the younger lad. Although there were only about one mean comment for every twenty nice comments, Dan only focused on the negativity those so called fans were posting.

"Bear, don't listen to the haters okay, they're just jealous," Phil soothed, closing the laptop once he had seen enough.

Phil was seething on the inside, he wanted to personally find every hater and yell at them for hurting his precious Dan, but he had to remain calm for Dan.
