Summary: Dan and Phil go on a cinema date
-

Dan was stood timidly outside outside Phil's door. He had been for about ten minutes now, contemplating whether or not to knock.

You see, earlier that day Phil had promised him that they could go out on a cinema date that evening, right after he'd finished up some work he was doing.

The only problem was that it was getting rather late and Dan was worried that he'd forgotten.

He worried quite a lot to be frank, it was just the way he was, he was always panicking about being late to events or worrying that Phil didn't really care about him (which of course wasn't true).

'Come on... come on... I can do it, he's just working it's not like I'm intruding on anything' Dan mumbled to himself as he tried to psych himself up 'Just do it Dan, knock on the goddamn door!' He took a deep breathe.

'Okay'

Knock knock.
'Philll?'
He knocked again after hesitating.
'Phil can I come in?'
He decided then that it wasn't worth standing outside the door again for another ten minutes so he took the silence as a yes.

As soon as he walked into the room he sighed at the sight he was greeted with. So much for Phil being 'hard at work', well actually he did look very much like he had been hard at work but he was currently collapsed from exhaustion on his desk.

Dan rolled his eyes affectionately at the sight as he walked towards it. He'd always thought to himself that Phil looked cute when he was asleep, his fringe messy and his lips slightly parted.

'No, this is no time to be creepily admiring your boyfriend when you want to go on a date Dan' he said, internally chastising himself.

'Philll' he said just as he had before but in a whisper.

There was no reply, not even a movement. 'Philllllll' Dan tried again, speaking up this time. Still nothing. 'Phillllip Micheal Lester, the most angelic being to ever roam this earth... wake upppp!'
Dan chuckled to himself and then jumped as he unexpectedly got the response he was actually after.

'Hmmm' a sleepy yawning Phil mumbled 'Dan?'
He got up with a stretch and looked up at Dan.
'You fell asleep while working again' Dan exclaimed.
'I did?'
'Mhmm' Dan smirked 'shame you had to wake up really, you look pretty adorable when you were sleeping'
'Hey!' Phil yelled, punching Dan playfully now that he was fully awake.

'Now, I'd say you have about... hmm 5 minutes to get ready?' Said Dan as he walked out of the room without elaborating.
'Wait! For what?'
'The date, stupid' Dan shouted down the hallway. Crap, how did Phil forget about the date?

Believe it or not both of the boys were actually ready in record time a few minutes later. After much stumbling around the apartment in a hasty rush to get changed they met up in the hallway five minutes before they had to leave.

'Nice shirt Howell, I wonder where you got it from' Phil asked, a knowing glint in his eye.
'Oh I don't know I'm pretty sure it's mine' Dan teased, playing along. It was one of Phil's brightly colored plaid shirts he had on, having found it on his boyfriends clean washing pile.

Phil rolled his eyes at this response
'Come on then you lying thief, let's go or we'll miss the film' he exclaimed as he took Dan's hand and led him out the door.

They took their seats in the cinema about half an hour later, after a short taxi ride and a considerably longer cue.

They were sat almost right in the middle of the room, in the perfect spot, thanks to Dan booking the tickets a week in advance and for once being actually prepared. He really wanted to see this film (as Phil was well aware), he'd been rambling on about it for months.

Phil on the other hand couldn't really care less. He hated romance movies to be quite honest, though he never voiced that opinion due to how much he know Dan loved them.

He knew the basic premises of the film from Dan's explanation but he couldn't say that he actually had any reason for going other than to please him.

'Psst Dan, can we go get snacks?' Phil said, nudging his partner a whole 30 seconds after they'd sat down.
'Hmm? Oh, uh you can' Dan replied, he was already captivated by the adverts, eyes glued to the screen. 'But Phil' he actually turned to face the other boy now 'don't get lost okay?'
Phil snorted. 'Hey I'm not five you know! Anyway I'll be right back'

Now when Phil said he'd be right back Dan knew that he would, he wasn't dating some freak who ran away half way through a date after all, but what he wasn't expecting was what Phil came back with.

As it turned out he came back with his arms adorned with what looked like half the shop. He had two buckets of popcorn, two giant drinks of soda, various chocolate bars and a whole tub of ice cream.

'Phil!' Dan yelled looking slightly gobsmacked. 'Why did you buy so many snacks?!'
Phil would've looked guiltier if he wasn't currently trying to balance the snacks while trying to haphazardly place them down.

'I er... wanted to make sure we had enough food and drink to last the whole movie' He explained like this was a perfectly normal thing to do. Dan sighed. How he had grown so used to Phil's embarrassing quirks?
'Just sit down you dolt'

The film was about half way through now (the snacks definitely weren't though) and Dan was fully captivated by the screen. Even Phil dared to admit that he found the film somewhat interesting, not quite as bad as the usual crap Dan made him sit through.

As corny as it was, Phil was definitely still way more interested in the sight beside him rather than the one in front of him though.

With every moment he got he took advantage of the fact that Dan's eyes were on the screen and gazed at him with what was probably a rather longing, sappy expression. He couldn't help it, he just found the man so captivating. The way his hair fell perfectly in messy curls, the way his pale lips glistened in the dim light.

From what Phil could hear, the movie was just getting to the cliche part where the two characters confess their undying love for each other. However, he still wasn't looking at the screen, instead gazing at the light that reflected from it in his boyfriend's eyes.

He'd still assumed that Dan was fully immersed in the film at this point. So it really caught him by surprise when the boy turned and caught Phil staring at him for the first time.

Those eyes had been intense enough from a side glance, but know he had them in full view and fully focused on him, he really didn't know what to do.

It came to him though, a moment later when he heard the quiet exchange of 'I love you' coming from the film. He turned to face the screen for a second to see that the two characters were kissing.

Then without thinking he turned back and kissed the boy sitting next to him, perfectly imitating the couple on the screen.

Dan's lips against his felt incredible as he felt them kiss him back. The feeling made him feel all warm and tingly inside and he felt a rush of adrenaline course through him.

He knew that the people all around them were probably staring, maybe even a little disgusted by their public affection but Phil really couldn't care less as he continued to kiss Dan. The boys wrapped their arms around each other in a warm embrace, neither ever wanting to let go.

Did Phil ever mention how much he loved romance movies?
