Dan finally got the urge to leave his comfy chair. He grabbed his phone and just before he got up, he shot Phil a text. His thumbs, working fast, typed, "Hey Phil. I had a great time with you! Maybe we could do this again sometime?" He stared at the message for a moment. Then, for good measure, he added a "<3" and his thumb pressed "Send". He shoved his hands in his pockets and quickly walked out the door. He glanced back and saw his sister shaking Phil. He noticed Phil check his phone and Danielle hardly being able to hold her excitement. He should have known. Danielle was the ultimate "shipping" machine. Two people closer than normal to each other? Boom. Has to be a couple. He saw Danielle finally let go of Phil, and continued his day. He took out his earbuds and tapped "Shuffle" on his Spotify playlist. The song that came up was play music. He laughed. He used to be obsessed with musicals. He tapped the 'next' button. "I Don't Love You" by My Chemical Romance was playing. He skipped to the chorus and listened.
Wheeeeen you go,
Would you even turn to say,
I dont love you, like I did, yesterday.
Sometimes I cry so hard from pleading,
So sick and tired of all the needless beating,
Well maybe when they knock you,
Down and out, is where you oughta stay.
Dan was enjoying the music when he heard a ding come from the speaker. He looked down. It was a text from Phil! It read: "Hey Dan! Sorry I answered a little late. Your sister is very interesting. Anyway, I too hope to see you again sometime!" Dan smiled. This man was so sweet. He didn't ever want to lose him...
