"maybe they'll leave you alone but not me"

AU: d+p, both 16 year old, in high school

the bell vibrated throughout the entire school, rocking the ground with a deafening ring. it triggered an avalanche of sweaty bodies barreling down the stairs, all reaching for the hot burning air outside- not that the air inside the old building was much different. the air conditioners weren't working for that last week of school, which only caused the students patience to decrease even more.

outside, students threw papers and their unfinished homework into the air. teachers stood by- either disappointed at the kids disciplinary or slightly amused at the riot they saw.

inside, dan howell was still slowly pulling stuff out of his locker, and shoving it all into a worn out backpack. he kept is head low as he walked away from his locker- the only one left in the whole building. except phil lester came up from behind.

"hey dan!" phil yelled from the end of the hallway, waving enthusiastically to get his attention. dan dipped his head lower and stuffed his hands into the pockets of his stained black hoodie. phil didn't take the hint and ran up behind him. 

"hey dan!" he says again, and dan manages a quiet hello back. he even mustered up the energy to lift his face up and brush his hair out of his eyes. phil noticed the small thing and smiled at dan's sleep deprived face. 

"so uh, you free over the summer?" phil asked, 

"i'm busy," dan bluntly responded, the muttered like you give a damn, why do you care?

"of course i care!" phil surprisingly heard what dan had said, "i was wondering if you'd hang out over the summer!"

dan shrunk even more into his sweater, embarrassed and slightly flustered.

"i think you have other friends," dan muttered, he'd rather be anywhere but here right now.

"but i wanna hang out with you!" phil smiled brightly.

"too bad," dan whispered, and started to quickly walk away from the sticky situation. 

"come back!" phil cried out.

not worth it. dan thought while entering the hot summer's heat. the heavy metal doors swung shut and clicked in phil's face while he stood there shocked. 

"i won't give up on you!" he called out to dan- but dan's long gone and he's standing alone.
