Waiting for You // Phan

---17---

Louise's POV

Louise turned to Tyler as they walked up the stairs to Dan's apartment.

"Do you reckon Dan and Phil should get together?" She shot a sly sideways smirk at Tyler and wiggled her eyebrows.

She saw Tyler's eyes light up. "I knew I wasn't the only one who thought they should!" Louise laughed, of course Tyler agreed.

Louise high-fived him. "Yes!"

Tyler smiled broadly and rolled his eyes. "Have you seen the way Dan looks at him?"

"The way they talk about each other..."

"...just the way they act..."

"There love is so epic!" Tyler burst out, and he and Louise burst into fits of giggles.

Louise gasped suddenly. "Tyler, they need a ship name, everyone needs a ship name!"

"Oh my God yes!" Tyler said, rubbing his palms together. "A mega super awesome combination of Dan, and Phil!"

"Dil?"

"Nah, that doesn't really sound right. How about... Phan?!" Tyler exclaimed, waving his hands.

"Amazing. Amazing." Louise nodded, looking at Tyler. "Together, we can be the daring duo who will ship Phan to the death."

Tyler's eyes brightened again. "We can get PJ involved!"

Louise's smile faltered. She had noticed how weird PJ had been acting around Phil.

"I don't think PJ will want to..."

"Why not?" Tyler asked, genuinely confused.

Louise sighed. "Tyler, have you seriously not noticed how much PJ hates Phil right now?"

"PJ hates Phil?"

"Tyler do you even have eyes?"

"I have glasses?"

Louise rolled her eyes dramatically. "Plumface."

Tyler glared at Louise with mock offense, pressing his hand to his chest.

"So what's up with our boi Peej?" Tyler asked as they waited outside Dan's apartment.

"So basically" Louise began, "I don't know when it started, I'm pretty sure it was today or yesterday or something, but PJ has been acting really weirdly towards Phil, like he hates him."

"Does Dan know?"

"I don't know actually."

Tyler spread his hands. "Well, I think I have an idea to what's wrong."

Louise raised an eyebrow. "You say idea, does it involve flying giraffes and singing-"

"No it doesn't!" Tyler laughed, "Why do people always never take my ideas seriously?"

"Oh alright, carry on." Louise shrugged. "But it better be real."

Tyler sighed shortly. "I think, what PJ's problem is, is that because Dan and Phil are, you know, soulmates, and Dan and PJ have been best friends for ages, I think PJ is jealous of the way Dan wants to spend time with Phil, instead of him." Tyler finished with a flourish of his hand. "See? It's a reasonable theory."

Louise nodded. "Even I have to admit, it does sound likely. Well done. Though this still doesn't mean I'm going to say all of your ideas are brilliant."

"So PJ-"

Louise and Tyler stopped talking as they heard someone coming up the stairs.

"Why are you two waiting out here? You could have just knocked and gone in."
