Caffeine (Phan)

Chapter 12

Phil's POV
Phil cracked open one eye and yawned. Dan was missing from the bed and Phil frowned at that. Phil wanted to take Dan on a really romantic date because he wanted to tell Dan how much he loved him and he wanted to kiss his neck and-

Phil's phone pinged from the bedside table, so he picked it up. Just a work email, he didn't have a shift today. He decided to text Dan just to see where he was, because the flat seemed too quiet for Dan to still be here.

Daniel, where are you?

Phil got up and went to the bathroom, brushing his teeth and having a wee. He walked out into the living room and noticed how messy Dan's flat was. Only then did Phil remember he had his own shared flat, that he still helped to pay for even though he was rarely ever there. He even has a drawer in Dan's wardrobe of clothes in case he didn't get time to stop by his own.

His phone pinged again and he figured it was Dan, which it was.

Dan: sorry, i got called into work and i was running late, so i couldn't leave u a note or tell u goodbye.

Can I call you?

Dan: yes, we're dead right now.

In 30 seconds, Phil's phone was ringing and a picture of Dan smiling at him with blushing cheeks popped up. Phil loved that picture.

"What's up?" Dan said in a quiet tone.

"So usually a person would ask another person to move into their own flat but I'm asking if I can move into yours." Phil rushed out quickly, he seemed so sure that Dan would say yes, but now he was nervous, and he picked at a loose thread hanging from his shirt. Dan didn't say anything, and Phil blushed as if Dan was standing right in front of him. "I was thinking," he continued, "why spend money on rent on a place I'm barely in? I basically live at yours anyways."

"Yes." Dan said finally, after what seemed like an eternity of silence from when Phil first started speaking. "I would love to have you live with me." Phil could hear the smile in his voice.

"When do you get off work?" Phil said, glancing at the stove time that read 11:23 p.m.

"At four, why?"

"I'm taking you on a date."

"Phil, where are you taking me? The thought of what's at the top of all of these staircases are extremely scary." Phil was leading Dan to the roof of the building he works in at the bookstore. His coworker Sam said it was beautiful at sunset and Phil hadn't been up here yet, so he'll be sharing his first impression with Dan.

"Just a little bit more, and then I'll show you." He answered, a ball of excitement growing in his chest. Before he opened the door to the roof, he removed Dan's blindfold and gave him a lingering kiss on Dan's neck.

Dan shuddered, and looked at Phil. "Will you just show me? I've been waiting all day!"

Dan gasped as they both stepped out onto the concrete roof, looking at the picnic scene in front of them. Phil had laid out a thick olive green blanket, with fairy lights surrounding it. Phil thanks the architect for having a few outlets on the roof. There was a picnic basket sitting to the side, and a bouquet of white roses.

Dan suddenly turned around and basically jumped into Phil's arms, giving him a hard kiss. "I fucking love it!" He squealed, grabbing Phil's hand and pulling him to the blanket.
