True Beauty lies Beneath the Skin (Phan)

Undress Your Body (Explicit Content)

Undress your body
Hold it over my head
Because you know that if you knock
That I will always let you in
I've been numb for so long
That I forgot how to feel
So I don't care if it will break my heart
Just fuck me 'til we disappear

Dan anxiously bounced his knee up and down the entire cab ride to Phil's house. Phil had returned from tour and Dan had missed him so much; it almost seemed as if them finally saying "I love you" made it all that much harder to say "goodbye". Phil was one of the only things on Dan's mind aside from Bella; all other things seemed so insignificant in comparison. Every day, every hour, every minute, every second, Dan was just a little bit closer to seeing Phil again, and just the thought of that nearly drove him mad, but in the best way possible.

Sure, there were things from Phil that made it feel like a piece of Phil was with Dan; Dan had stolen a couple of Phil's jackets and once in a while the occasional love mark that Dan would have to try to hide, all of which Dan really loved, but it wasn't the same as having Phil with him. It wasn't the same as feeling the warmth of another body next to him and falling asleep in the arms of the person who not only did he love more than anything, but who was also his best friend.

It had been almost a year since Dan and Phil had gotten together, and Dan was completely smitten. He fell harder and harder every day for his boyfriend and wouldn't trade their relationship for the world, despite the hardships. Nevertheless, it was extremely difficult to be away from Phil so often, and it was difficult for Phil too. Phil often apologized to Dan for the fact that the two of them didn't have a "normal" relationship and that he couldn't be there more often, but Dan never thought the apology was necessary. Phil was chasing a dream that many people in the world wouldn't be brave enough to do, which only made Dan love him more.

Bella had gotten invited to another sleep over with a friend, which again made Dan very happy. The fact that she was making friends, going on play dates, having fun and being a normal little girl made him absolutely over joyed. A year ago, Dan wasn't so sure that that would have been possible, and then all of the sudden he was saying "goodbye" to her for the evening as he walked away from her friend's house. Dan was still getting used to Bella staying over with friends, so he did still worry at times, but if Bella was happy, he was happy. Besides, it was extremely convenient on nights like tonight for Bella to be elsewhere...

As Phil's house came into view, Dan's heart began to race a mile a minute. He quickly unbuckled, paid the cab driver, and clambered out of the cab and to the gate. He punched in the code for the gate and the gates opened up to the long drive way. A smile slowly grew on Dan's face as he walked along the familiar pavement up to the house that he'd grown to know so well.

Before Dan can even get to the door, its flung open by Phil, who runs out of the house with a huge smile on his face. Dan smiles as well and the two of them run over to each other before colliding in a hard and tight embrace. An immediate wave of relief washed over Dan just by being in Phil's arms, and it felt as if the entire weight of the world had been lifted off his shoulders. They come apart just enough for their lips to be able to touch, and they immediately melt into each other right there in the drive way without a care in the world.

Phil loved getting to go away on tour, but he absolutely hated being away from Dan, and the anticipation to see him again had nearly killed Phil. So as they broke their kiss, all Phil could do was smile, because he'd just returned from taking part in his dream job, and now he was with his dream partner once again; Phil felt complete.

"Hi," Phil exhales.

"Hi," Dan chuckles.

"Guess what?"
