"stop,"

phil paused his actions, slowly lowering his fist back down to his side. he looked over at pj in confusion.

"what?"

pj frowned. "sorry i um, i just, got... scared," he mumbled sheepishly, shoving his hands deep into his jacket pockets. phil sighed, running his hand over his face.

"i know peej," he started, placing a comforting hand in his shoulder. "but think about how scared dan is right now."

"you're right, you're right. sorry, let's go,"

phil smiled sadly and turned, raising his fist once again and knocking.

he waited a moment, but there was nothing. not even a sound.

he knocked again, louder this time, but still there was nothing. he took a deep breath and twisted the knob, jumping when it creaked open. he turned around to see a petrified-looking pj and shrugged before walking into the room.

"hello?" pj called loudly. phil could have punched him right then.

"shhh!"

"why?" pj asked in a whisper as he stayed close behind phil, who stopped and turned to him.

"what if he hid when he heard the knock, and now he's somewhere watching us with a gun?" phil said in the quietest voice possible, watching as pjs face dropped and his eyes widened.

they walked around the apartment for almost twenty minutes before finally they'd checked everywhere. they went back out and stood outside the door.

"dammit, dammit, dammit," phil repeated as he paced, trying his best to think of where else they could be.

"maybe they aren't here," pj started and phil cut him off in anger.

"no shit sherlock!"

pj frowned, looking taken aback.

"sorry," phil mumbled, leaning against the wall. "i just, where else would they be?"

"i don't know, phil, i don't know," pj sighed and leaned against the wall as well, looking over as phil began to talk.

"well, maybe james went somewhere we wouldn't expect?"

"yeah," pj agreed. "yeah, maybe they went to-"

suddenly a scream echoed from up the staircase, making both boys jump as phil stood up from the wall and looked up.

"was that dan?" phil asked as pj stared at him.

"um, that could have been literally anyone,"

phil frowned. "let's check... just incase?"

pj smiled lightly at phil. "sure, phil,"
