*FAST FORWARD* Depression. That was the only thing the doctors said. They said that therapy would help along with antidepressants. Dan was convinced that none of this would work and he was fucked up in the head. Dan thought he was a bomb and would explode like he did that night all over again. He was afraid to hurt Phil in the way he did again by doing that but things just got overwhelming and things took a turn for the worse. 

Phil on the other hand was mute. He wasn't saying a thing to anyone. He would just sit there and stare at the wall. The images of the night replaying in his head. Turning the corner and seeing all the blood on the floor and all over Dan. He was convinced that it was his fault. Dan somehow convinced the silent man to go to therapy hoping it would help Phil get over this bump in the road and maybe he would start talking again and making videos again instead of just leaving and confusing all the fans. 

The silence of his boyfriend was killing Dan. All he wanted was for Phil to speak and since it was close to Christmas time that's all he wanted for Christmas. On Christmas Eve the only thing he said to Phil before falling asleep was "All I want for Christmas is for you to speak again." 

The next morning when Dan woke up Phil was in the kitchen making breakfast and coffee for the two. Dan walked into the lounge of the new apartment and was greeted with Phil's smiling face which was a major thing since Dan hasn't seen him smile in months.
