Dan's POV:

I hurried over to Phil's house. Poor Y/N, she was so scared, I hope it wasn't visible how scared I am. I can't let her be taken away. Maybe Phil will know what to do? I texted him from his porch, and he opened the door shortly after.

"Dan?"Phil asked in surprise.

"Y/N's mum is trying to send her away, I don't know what to do," I said in panic.

Phil let me inside and had me sit down.

"I'll be right back. Don't worry she'll be okay, just wait here," he said.

He went upstairs, and a few minutes later, he was back downstairs with his mother. She sat down next to me, and Phil looked down at his hands in worry.

"This is strange decision to make so quickly, but desperate times call for desperate measures," his mother began,"I'm going to see if Y/N can live with us."

I looked up, and she nodded her head at me.

"I'm going to try to convince her to let us take care of her instead of wherever she is planning to take her,"she continued,"I've found her number, so I'm just going to give her a call."

It would be weird feeling having Y/N live with Phil. Would that make her his sister? I don't even know.

"So Dan, you can go home now, Y/N will be fine, I won't let anything happen to her,"she said with a smile.

I smiled back weakly and said,"Thank you."

I showed myself out, and ran through the rain back to my house. I opened the door quietly, and locked it behind myself. When I made it up to my room, Y/N was curled up in my bed, fast asleep. She looked so peaceful. I smiled at her, and changed into some dry pajamas. I turned out the light and crawled into bed beside her. She shifted closer to me in her sleep, and then she hugged me tightly. I put my arms around her in response, and I laid a gentle kiss on the top of her head.

Your POV:

I woke up the next morning to find myself in Dan's arms.

"Good morning," he said to me with a smile.

You smiled, and he kissed your forehead. His phone buzzed, and he picked it up to look at it.

"Oh, it's Phil,"he said,"we have to go over to his house right now."

"Right now?"you asked with a yawn.

"Yep, come on, there'll be breakfast there,"he said getting out of bed.

He didn't even change out of his pajamas. You got out of bed too, and you both hurried over to Phil's house.

When you got there, Phil's mom answered the door.

"Hi Y/N,"she said warmly,"please, come in."

You noticed your things that you had packed were now over in the corner, along with your phone. You sat down in the living room with her.

"This is going to sound crazy but I've talked to your mother and," she announced,"she's letting us adopt you!"

You looked at her in surprise.

"Sorry if it seems odd," she said as she played with her fingers nervously,"I ca-"

You interrupted her with a hug, and she hugged you back.

"Thank you," you said.

She smiled and said,"You're welcome."

Phil showed you to where your new room was, and Dan helped you unpack.

"Does this mean you're my brother?"you asked Phil.

"Y/N, I'm whatever you see me as," he answered.

"Well you're still my best friend to me then," you told him, and he smiled.

Once you were alone in your room, it felt surprisingly normal. It was as if you'd never been home until now. As you were going to sleep you remembered that Dan had asked you to prom, which was in a week. You needed to find a dress soon before it was too late. You'd just have to start working on that tomorrow.
