Dan and Phil Oneshots / Imagines

Coming Out pt.2 (ℓ.𐒨)

"phil! are you okay?! phil!" I was shaken awake by a familiar voice and a splashing sound. (A/N: sh°°k)

I felt drops of cool water hit my face lightly, and I opened my eyes.

"dan...? what're yo-" I tried to ask, but was cut off almost immediately.

"phil oh my god thank fuck you're awake! do you remember anything that happened?" I tried to remember something, anything, but I couldn't.

"n-no... what happened?" I suddenly realised that dan was resting my upper body on his lap... what the hell?

"you went to the bathroom - you said you'd be right back - but you were gone for almost forty minutes. I was scared. when I came in to check on you... your eyes were puffy, your nose was red, and your hands and legs were shaking. when you saw me, you froze. it was like you were a deer in headlights. I said your name, but right after... you fainted. if I didn't catch you in time - you would have fallen on the ground and hit your head really hard. I immediately started splashing water on you and gently shaking you to try and wake you up as soon as possible. I think you've had enough drinks for tonight."

half way through explaining all this he started running his hand through my hair and caressing it softly.

I couldn't look away from his eyes - although his eyes weren't on mine, but focused on my hair.

I didn't notice he was crying until I saw a tear fall down from his watery eye and onto my cheek - which then proceeded to slide down my face.

"ohmygod phil, don't scare me like that." he sighed with a small sad smile.

"wait - why were you crying?" shit.

the words I dreaded to hear came spilling out from his lips like a river bank spilling into the oceans waves.

I stood up - 'nonononono this can't be happening I am not in this situation this isn't real' oh - was I wrong.

"uhm, I-I don't, lets just, I'll be, yeah."
I mumbled aimlessly, trying to avoid answering the question.

I started to walk out when I heard dan, "phil no - wait! godfuck."

I chuckled at the phrase he said when he was frustrated. (A/N: not true I made that up + I use that so)

I heard him shuffle while trying to get up quickly and hopped out the door.

"mate!" he exclaimed, obviously 100% done with my bullshit and weird ass attitude.

he grabbed my arm and turned me around to say something - but he was cut off by hundreds of people screaming, "THREE! TWO! ONE! HAPPY NEW YEAR!" and woo-ing while many kissed their partner or hugged their friends and others who were alone just stood there clapping and taking shots of strange alcohol.

we looked around as we realised that it was officially 2017.

I quickly looked back at dan in realisation and was about to laugh nervously, when dan did something that caught me by surprise - as well as many others.

daniel james howell, the love of my life, leaned in, and kissed me.

after pulling back he whispered "happy new year, phil." while resting his right hand on my chest and loosening is grip - still keeping his left hand on my upper arm.

he searched my eyes for any negative reaction or response.

I was speechless.

all I could say was "happy new year, dan." while kissing him again.

'well,' I thought to myself. 'now you know the answer ; you're gay for dan howell'

I smiled into the kiss because for the first time in my life I felt at peace.

I felt him smile into the kiss as well, and all my sadness was evaporated into thin air.

"I'm gay." I said to dan when we pulled apart for the second time.

"I know, me too." he whispered to me.

"I love you." he said.

"I know, me too." I smiled and leaned in for the third time.
