**Next Day**
Phil's POV
I walk out the door and down the street towards school, I normally stop off at Dan's place so we can walk together but as he is still in the hospital I don't need to go to his place. I walk past Dan's place and see that Ryan is sitting out on his fromt lawn, I give him a small smile and wave. Ryan gets up front the grass and runs over to me and gives me a giant hug.

"Oh hi" I say suprisling looking down at the small boy "what's with the hug" I laugh

"For saving my brother" he says looking up at me with tears in his eyes

I kneel down to his level and give a smile " well I wouldn't say I saved him, more like the doctors did but your welcome Ryan"

"No you did save him, if you didn't find him in the bathroom he could have died" he shakes his head rubbing away the tears from his eyes

I bring him into a hug to calm him down a little " Ryan, I would save your brother no matter the situation"

Ryan laughs quietly "Dan was right you are very kind and lovable, no wonder he likes you" he says without realising what he said

"Wait, what did you say?" I say

Did he just say to me that Dan liked me, no he is a little kid and they have very wide imaginations so he could have made it up... he must have

"RYAN! What are you doing out here bothering this poor boy" Dan's mother stormed out of the house in her pajamas "Oh, Phil How are you doing" she said realising it was me

"I'm doing just fine, Ryan here was just thanking me" I smile down at Ryan

"Oh, I should give you my thanks too, I had no idea Dan was- was self-harming" his mother thanks me

"Neither did I, but I'm sure he will be fine now" I smile "But I really should start getting to school"

"Oh sorry for keeping you, have a nice day" she smiles walking back inside with Ryan

Did I really deserve those thanks, afterall I was the one who caused it, I chose to bottle up my problems and not tell anyone... I really stuffed up.

I get to school and head over to my group of friends and see Chris is there as well, not like he can or anything. I sit down next to Louise and look over at Chris which has his head down low.

"Hey, Phil. Why weren't you at lunch yesterday you okay?" Pj asks

"Yeah I'm fine now, something happened during drama and Dan kinda..." I trail off

"OH MY IS DAN OKAY?!" Louise panics

"He is fine now, we didn't see the sign but Dan was very suicidal and I may have accidently yelled at him" I say "and that caused Dan to almost kill himself" I start to cry "it was all my fault"

Louise jumps off the seat to give me a hug for support, I hug her back tightly at the thought that I could have been the cause of Dan's death.

"I'm sorry Phil..." I hear someone whisper

I let go of Louise and see that Chris is looking at me with an apologetic look on his face

"I'm sorry for all the trouble I have caused you and Dan, if anything I was the one who caused this i made Dan feel like shit" Chris apoligises

"Chris... you cant think that" I say walking over to him

"Well I can and I have. I even put pressure on you when you were going through a tough time with you dad dying and everything. I should have known not to put any more stress on you" Chris starts to cry

I bring Chris into a hug and start getting worried and surprised looks from Pj and Louise.

"Phil... your father died?" Pj asks with a worried tone

I nod my head and start to tear up at the thought of my dad but I had to stay strong

"Why didn't you ever tell us, we could have helped" Louise says

"That's why, I didn't want to bother you with any of my problems. I had to stay happy for you guys and Dan" I say

Louise and Pj get up to join the hug

"You know you can come to us at anytime with anything" Louise says squeezing us all tight

"That goes for all of us including Dan" Pj adds

We all let go of each other but Chris was still in a mental break down.

"Chris? What's wrong I thought everything was fine." Louise says comforting with a back rub

"I-I am still kicking myse-if for liking Phil, I should've liked him and got jealous" Chris stammers

"Chris, I didn't mind you liked me no one can help that they like someone" I say sitting down next to Chris and putting my arm around him to bring him into a hug "it's just I had yelled at Dan and my dad then that it all built up, I should've reacted like that" I say playing with Chris's hair

"But I still should not have tried to fuck up your relationship with Dan..." Chris cries again

"What relationship, me and Dan are just friends" I say letting go of Chris

The whole group is surprised

"You mean you and Dan aren't a thing?" They all say

I nod my head in agreement, why would they think such a thing. Dan and I would never work NEVER

"Chris are we good now, I know I forgive you but you have to talk to Dan about him" I say hugging Chris

Louise and Pj look at each other before saying "I'm glad you two finally made up"

"Our group wasn't the same while you were fighting" Louise laughs

"And Chris, it takes great courage to tell someone you like them good job" Pj hugs Chris

We all laugh and go back to our original spots before Louise practically screams at us;

"GUYS! This afternoon we should go visit Dan in hospital, I'm sure he will enjoy that" Louise says jiggling in her chair with excitement

"Yeah, I would like that I can apoligise to Dan" Chris smiles

"That's a good idea Louise we can bring flowers and chocolate" Pj adds in

They all turn to look at me with looks on their face waiting for my opinion

"of course I'm in" I laugh

**Ring**

And with the sound of the bell we all head of to period one and wait for the afternoon to see Dan in hospital.
