Save Me ; Phan ~ completed

chapter 53

||Phil's POV||

My heart nearly stops as I watch the words form on the screen. Tears prick at my eyes as I type out a response.

Me- Why?

I delete that. It's pretty obvious why..

Me- Dan, please don't.

Dan- why not?

Dan-I don't see the point anymore..

Dan- I'm just dragging you into my mess

Me-Because I love you.

Me-I need you.

Me- And if thats not enough, you dragged me into this a long while ago. Theres no way out, I'm better off with you then without you.

Dan- I think otherwise..

I get up and grab my keys, rushing into the car.

Me- Just please tell me where you are.

Dan- I can't. You'll make doing this a lot harder.

Me- no. You aren't going to do that. I won't let you.

Me- Please Dan. I can't lose you

He doesn't respond for a whole five minutes, causing my anxiety to go through the roof. I'm a wreck. I know if he goes through with this it'll be all my fault.

I drive around, trying to think of anywhere that's near a bridge, but come up blank.

Dan- Phil, I'm sorry. I love you. I really fucking do.. I never thought that could be a possibility for me, but.. I fell for you. Hard.

Dan- You did all you could to make sure I was okay.. I see that.

Dan- You marched into my life like a blue eyed knight in shining armor. You swept me off my feet, quite literally.

Dan- Whenever I was with you the world could have been falling apart and I would've hardly noticed. The past few months have been the best, and worst of my life. Good because of you, bad because, well... You know.

Dan- Do you remember that night I called you crying my eyes out. You snuck me out of the house so we could go eat ice cream in the park. For the first time in a long time, I genuinely laughed. I told you how absolutely cheesy this was.. You just giggled and kissed me. Then in the early morning hours you brought me back home.. What you don't know is that I stayed up for the next hour, smiling like an idiot. It's funny how quickly you were able to change my mood.

Dan- Speaking of you altering my moods.. I don't know if I've ever really said this, but thank you. For every-damn-thing you've done. You cared. You loved me when I was unloveable. Hell you probably still love me now. You made everything okay. Your lips could work miracles and your touch might as well save my damn life. So Phil, thank you for sticking around. Turns out I was the one who couldn't stick it out.. You could've ran away when you found out about my life.. My problems. But you didn't.

Dan- And I'm sorry for ever hurting you, or making you cry. That was never my intention.

Dan- I wish I was okay, but I'm not, I wish..

Dan- I love you Phil.

Dan- I guess this is goodbye.

I stop at a second place, noticing the outline of someone sitting on the edge of the bridge.

Me- No it's not.

Me- I love you too.

Me - That's why you've gotta get off that ledge.

Dan- I can't. I'm sorry. Don't try to save me this time. Please.

I get out of the car and run through the rain and cold to where Dan sits. I watch as he leans over the edge, looking down at the water. At least he hasn't jumped. I run over and grab him from behind around the waist. "What the- Phil!?!" He shouts, kicking as I pull him off the edge. "Let me go! Put me down! Stop stopping me!" He sobs, struggling against me.

"Oh Angel.." I choke out, holding him tightly and sobbing into his shoulder.

"S-Stop it." He sobs, trying to peel my arms from him. "P-Please just let me d-die.."

"I can't." I shake my head, feeling him stop fighting as hard as he sighs in defeat.

"Just please let me go." He whines, squirming.

"No. I won't." I say firmly. "I don't care if you don't love me, because I know I'll always love you."

"Phil." He says softly, giving up on fighting me. "Would you at least loosen your grip? It's starting to hurt." He whimpers and I chuckle, letting go of him a little.

"Thank god you're okay." I mumble, tears still falling as what if's swirl through my mind. "I love you so much."

"I love you too." He mumbles. "Don't cry over me."

"I can't help it." I chuckle sadly, unable to stop the tears from falling.

"Babe." He mumbles, turning around so he's facing me. He wipes my cheeks and looks at me with his glossy brown eyes. "Please don't cry.. I'm not leaving." He mumbles with a frown. "I won't. I can't leave you."

"You were about to." I mutter, my arms wrapping around his waist and pulling him closer.

"Well I won't, as long as you don't cry.. I hate to see you upset."

"Good." I say softly, a hint of a smile appearing on my face as I notice that little red bar slowly turn from red to orange. I look back down and meet his eyes, leaning in and kissing him.

At this point I hardly cared who was watching, or who gave us dirty looks. Things were okay.. for now.
