Me? - Adopted By Phan

I nervously walked over and sat with him. "I'm so sorry! If I-" "No I apologize. I know you aren't a bad person. I'm sorry Papa." I looked up and saw him smiling.

"You called me Papa. Did you hear it Bear?! HE CALLED ME PAPA!"

I hugged him. He was so warm. I missed hugs.

"Kris! You're back!" Fin ran up to me and squeezed me tight. "I was only gone for a few hours."

"Yeah but me and Fin had no idea where you were or how long you'd be out." Phil shot Dan a glance.

Dan raised his hands in defense. "Ask him what happened!" He pointed to me. I stared at him as he mouthed "sorry".

"What are you talking about Bear?" I sighed. "I met up with a friend at the shop. That's all Papa. Sometimes Dad can be crazy."

Dan squealed and hugged me. "HE CALLED ME DAD!" Phil and Fin joined our hug and it was a cheesy moment. But I loved every second of it.

"How many days till Christmas Papa?" I asked after our moment was over. "Only a couple and you should head to bed." "Okay, thanks. Night Papa! Night Dad!

I turned to my room but immediately spun around. "Do you have a laptop?" Phil laughed. "Of course we do!" I smiled. "I know but can I borrow it?" "Sure can! It's by our bed." Dan replied. I thanked them and went to their room.

As soon as I entered I saw a picture of Dan and Phil smiling brightly. I went over to it. "So happy..." I placed my fingers gently on the frame. "So much love..."

I grabbed the computer and dashed to my room. I messaged Mikey.

~ What's your Skype?

"What's wrong?" "Panic attack.... bad things... please help..." "Okay. It's okay. I'm here. I've got you. You're not alone. I'm here for you." His words made me feel so much better.

We talked for hours. I yawned. "I should go," Mikey said. "Please stay," I begged. He nodded.

And soon we were both sleeping while still skyping and I felt like he was right there next to me.

I heard a yawn and my eyes fluttered open. "Hey, Kris!" Mikey said sleepily. "Hey!"

We probably looked terrible but in this moment everything was perfect.

There was a knock on my door. "Kris! It's time for breakfast!" The door opened and I saw Phil enter. "And I need my computer. Who are you talking to?!" Phil entered parent mode and was legit about to flip out.

"Papa calm down. Dad!" Dan ran into the room. "Tell Papa to calm down. It's Mikey." I turned the computer and Mikey waved to them. Dan hugged Phil and waved back. I said goodbye to him and closed the screen.

"Were you talking to him all night? Who is that boy? Why were you talking to him? W-" Dan kissed Phil to stop any more questions. "That was Mikey. And we weren't talking all night. We talked for a bit and then fell asleep but I didn't want to be alone so he stayed on. Then we woke up together. That's all."

Fin entered. "I saw him!" I turned to my little brother. "Yeah I heard you two talking and when you fell asleep I looked at him. He was smiling. I think he's your good friend."

I smiled at the thought. "Yeah, he is."

Dan started poking Phil and wiggling his eyebrows in a suggestive manner. "Papa make him stop!" I hid my face in my pillow. But when I looked up I saw Phil encouraging him. "Uh, you're the worst!" I climbed off the bed and handed Phil his laptop.

As soon as I stepped into the hall the smell of food hit me. I dashed to the kitchen and saw a stack of pancakes on the table. "Fin! Food!"

He ran in and I served all of us a plate. "Dad! Papa! Let's eat!"

Dan and Phil walked in hand in hand. "Well. Since we are pretty famous and we know how hard it is to go anywhere when you have fans we'd like to keep you guys a secret. If that's alright with you guys?" Dan and Phil both looked extremely nervous for our reaction.

"Of course that's fine! I've seen your videos and being stopped like that must be crazy. Like what if you're in the bathroom and someone asks for a picture?"

We all burst into laughter and me and Fin had to leave the kitchen so Dan could record a quick video.

After the video we had some food and Fin took a nap. "Hey Kris, me and Dan have to make a gaming video. Do you mind?" I shook my head. "I'll be fine. I need to grab something from the shop so I'll head there." "Be back in 10 minutes!" "I will!" I called back as I left the flat.

I should've known that going out alone was a bad idea. I should've known that I needed someone to protect me. But... I didn't.

I walked to the shops not necessarily paying attention which probably wasn't the best move. Someone grabbed me and pulled me into an alleyway. I struggled against his grip and for just a moment he let go of my mouth. "Help!" I yelled with all the power my voice carried. But nobody came.

The man started kissing me. And more things. It was terrifying. I thought I was safe. He took out a knife and whispered in my ear. "Stop struggling." I didn't listen. He took the blade and sliced my cheeks.

Just then I saw someone run inside the alley. They fought off my attacker. It was Pj.

I was on the floor. "Are you okay?" "Thank you, Pj. Yes. I'm Kris."

I checked the time on my old watch. It had been half an hour. I was supposed to be back 20 minutes ago. They were probably worried sick about me.

"Can you take me home now?" "I don't even know where you live." I facepalmed. "Dad and Papa's- I mean Dan and Phil's place."
