"It's true, I do."
Dan looks into my eyes, and I can see his brown irises watering. "Phil... do you really?" He asks. I stare sadly at the broken boy in front of me.
"Yes, with all my heart," I say truthfully. He sniffs and leans his head on my shoulder, and I let him cry, feeling a stab of pain in my heart.
He takes a shaky breath. "Please... don't fall in love with me..."
I take his hand. "Why?" I ask him softly.
He clutches my hand, squeezing it hard for support. "Because I can never be good enough for someone like you..."
"Like what?"
"You're the perfect person... you're always happy."
"Oh Dan," I sigh, "please, don't think that..."
He closes his eyes, his hand going limp in mine. I look at him sadly as his pulse starts to slow down.
"Dan..." I say.
"Yeah phil?" He mumbles.
I look at him, so vulnerable. I swoop down and press my lips against his, holding the kiss for a long time, tears starting to inch their way down my cheeks. His breaths are shallow, his lips becoming cold.
I pull away to look at him. I reach out and place my hand on his chest. His heart slows.
Just before the beat stops, he lifts one hand up shakily, almost not able to, and rests it on mine. His heart stops at 12:01, on the day I met him. I don't move, but rather stay with him until the sun comes up, when my watch beeps to signal a new day.
Yeah so basically this was a snippet of a possible phan story. I did not intend for Dan to die, when I wrote "his hand going limp in mine" I was trying to think of ways for Dan to relax, but it sounded like he was dying and I stuck with it. I know, I'm a horrible person.

RandomI first came up with the idea when reading Bad Boys Don't Smile by phanci (it's amazing and if you like Dan and Phil you should read it). After I recovered from the story, it inspired me to write something of my own. I wrote this in a crowded restau...
