The streets of London aren't safe for young people || Dan and Phil

Red on black

(Taylor's POV)
After finishing the video it was half past 5.

I was tired for some reason.

Phil asked me what I wanted for dinner and I told him I didn't mind and that I just wanted food. He disappeared off into the kitchen whilst shouting "I'm going to make spaghet-" followed my a huge crash. I ran to find him sat on the floor rubbing his forehead.
"What happened? Are you ok?" I kneel down beside him and he laughs quietly

"I'm fine I just walked into the door"
I look up and see a slight mark on the glass. It makes me let out a giggle myself. I walk back to the lounge and rest my phone up against a book to face time Dan.

(Dans POV)
I'm sat on the sofa in the hotel room with the TV on quietly in the background.

I'm so bored.

I have about an hour until my meeting as I got up too early. Stupid jet lag. I jump suddenly as my phone in my back pocket vibrates and lets put a catchy tune.

Taylor's ringing me.
I press the green button and her pixelated face shows up on the screen.

"Hey Dan!" She says. Her voice slightly groggy

(Taylor's POV)
"Hey Dan" I say as the tanned face of my slightly pixelated dad invaded my screen.

Did I say dad? I meant Dan...obviously

"How ya doing Tay Tay?"
Tay Tay? Seriously

I tell him I'm good and not to call me Tay Tay. He replies back with a new nickname: T-bag

I just sigh to myself at the quirky-ness of my dad..Dan

I tell him about the whole Starbucks episode with Phil and he has no sympathy whatsoever he is just sat there laughing his head off.
"It's ok though because he just went into the glass door" the phone goes silent for a second and then Dans laughter erupts the speakers.

I'm pretty sure I can see slight tears in his eyes from laughter

Dan tells me about hit time in America for a while when I hear Phil shout that dinners ready.
"Oh talk to you tomorrow Dan, dinners ready"
he nods his head and smiles
"Yes food is more important than your own family...I mean.." we lock eyes through the phone screen and an awkward silence fills the air.

"See you later Dan." I say and hang up the call.

(Dans POV)
Why did I say that.
I mean we feel like family. She means so much to me and I can't imagine life without her.

(Taylor's POV)
I join Phil at the table and I'm greeted by a generous amount of spaghetti.
"I-urm- I cooked a bit too much" I nod quietly and start to eat the food. It was delicious but there's a question lurking in the back of my mind.

"Do you consider me as family?"

I should not have said that.

(Phils POV)
I choked on a meatball.
Why is she asking me this?
Why now? She could've asked this at any time but now? When Dan isn't here? WHY?!

"Do you? Phil?"
What do I say?

"Do you want me to consider you as family?" I ask her

Her eyes dart to the floor
"Well..I don't m-mind you can if you want o-or you can just, like, send me to a c-care home or p-put me back on the s-street or.."

She starts to cry.

"Sorry Phil" She says as she gets up and walks to Dans room.
I leave her alone.

(A teeny tiny time skiperino)

(Taylor's POV)
I'm dying.
Phil is gonna be so mad. I run to the sink in the kitchen with Dans bedsheets and scrub them vigorously with a brush.

(Phils POV)
I wake up to hear the tap in the kitchen running. I don't remember leaving it on? I reach for my glasses and walk to the kitchen to find Taylor scrubbing Dans sheets?

"I'm sorry Phil..your definitely going to want to send me away now I've probably got some kind of disease or illness or-"

I look into the sink to see Dans bedsheets soaked with dark red marks on them.

She got her period.

I tell her to have a warm shower and that it's going to be fine. I find her one of my old tops to wear instead of pyjamas and call Dan.

"Hey Phil! It's um..1am in England what's up?"

I tell Dan and he seems surprisingly calm. Why is he so calm? I am freaking out here.

"Ok Phil, Louise left me with some stuff if this ever happens ok? Go into the bathroom and on the top shelf in the cupboard will be a packet of towels."

I tell her that she is in the shower.

"Then get it for her when she gets out you spork! Right, I'm going to text Louise to call you and then your going to give the phone to Taylor and Louise will take it from there."

"Got it."
