Through Another's Eyes

7; Lies.

Dan's POV;

I instantly leave the room, I can't believe that Phil would do something like that,

That's why he's been acting so strange, he's been jumping every time I touched him, he's been constantly ignoring me, and just acting like a totally different person.

I should've know that he doesn't love me anymore, I mean who would fall in love with a mentally unstable pathetic loser.

He just felt bad for me, if I hadn't tried to kill myself he would've never gone out with me.

I get into my bedroom, and locked the door behind me.

I should've fucking known that this would happen.

"Dan?" I hear Phil saying from behind the door, "please just, come out, let's talk about this.."

I stay silent, and I start rummaging through my drawers. I need to find it.

And then I see it, my old razor blade. I hold it, I just look at it, I know I shouldn't. I know that it would hurt Phil more than it'd hurt me.

But Phil doesn't care about me anymore, a tear runs down my face as I roll my sleeve up.

I tried to, I tried to reach for my clean arm and cut it, but I couldn't. I just threw it across the room and started sobbing.

Just because Phil broke his promise doesn't mean I should break mine.

"Dan.. listen I'm s-sorry, just please come out." He begs.

Becca's POV;

Dan has locked himself in his room, I don't know where it went wrong or who James is.

Dan is silent, I was standing in front of his door for a while, calling out for him, begging him to come out.

Until he finally came out, his eyes were all red and puffy, he's clearly been crying,

I can't believe i made him cry,

He suddenly grabs my hand and places a razor blade into it, "couldn't do it, couldn't break my promise, but you broke yours in a heart beat." he says and bumps into my shoulder as he walks away.

As soon as I saw the razor blade i understood what Phil meant by 'keep an eye on Dan.'

My heart instantly dropped, I couldn't believe that Dan used to hurt himself.

"Dan, Dan, please. Please just listen to me," I grab his arm and he brushes my hand off,

"I'm listening," he says. I then realized that I had nothing to say. Just come up with something, Becca.

"You know I would never hurt you, o I would never want to hurt you on purpose, I love you." I said.

"Why did you meet James?" He says immediately.

Who the hell is this James!

"He just wanted to talk," I said.

"AND YOU JUST WENT TO HIM, JUST LIKE THAT, NO QUESTIONS ASKED," Dan screams.

"I-I.." I couldn't say anything. "I won't see him again I promise," I say.

"No, don't give me another bullshit promise, it's been two years since you broke up, and now he's just magically back into your life? How long have you been seeing him? How long have you been lying to my face?" He spits.

'Broke up.' Oh, my god.

Phil used to date him, I just told Dan that I was with my ex, to his fucking face. Shit.

I have to make this right, I WILL.

"Never. I promise you, Dan. This is the first and last time." I say in hopes that that would be enough.

"W-What did you even do with him, how? How could you just go and hang out with him after what he's done to you?" he clearly still annoyed and angry.

"Nothing happened between us. Don't worry," I reply. I have to come up with something, quick.

"He kept calling me earlier, I ignored it, but he got really annoying so I decided to cut it short, so I answered, he told me that he wanted to talk to me, about something really important, and he said that he couldn't do it on the phone, that it had to be face-to-face, he promised that he'd leave me alone after that, and I didn't want to tell you because I thought you'd be upset." I lied.

"well, you thought right." he says.

"Dan, please, I won't see him again, I swear, he will leave us alone, he won't be able to hurt us anymore." I beg.

"Phil, you've been acting so strange recently, I just, I don't know," dan sigh.

"I will make it up to you, I'm sorry." I come close to him, and for the first time tonight, he doesn't push me away.

I look him in the eyes, "I love you, Dan. Not James, not anyone, just you."

"I love you too." He says and leans in for a kiss and I kiss him back.

This is serious now, I can't make dan upset. I have to make it up to him.

Meanwhile

Phil's POV;

Janice has left a few minutes ago to meet Becca. I just feel really tired of all of this, I want it to end as soon as possible,

I spent most of my time by either sleeping or being on the internet, which is what I'm doing now,

Everyone is wondering why I'm not active online. I sigh as I keep scrolling.

The door opens, it's Janice, finally.

"I got it," she says and closes the door behind her,

She starts setting up everything,

Just 5 more weeks, Dan. Im coming.
