Dan would never usually go out of his way to help someone but when he finds Phil beaten half to de...
Quietly cracking the front door of my house open, eyes looking around for the monster I shared this small house with. No sign of him, caused my heart to ease its normal pace once again. Once inside, I made my way towards my room when I heard something, thankfully, it was only my phone. Joe, Tyler and the rest of them were blowing up social media and tagging me in all of their posts.
This can't be good. And for once, I was right.

My heart sank as I read the messages they were sending him. Phil. I knew what this kind of hate could do to a person, I knew it all too well if I'm being honest. I quickly went to Phil's account and then to his tagged, the amount of hate made my stomach drop. It went from him being called a 'faggot' all the way to people telling him to kill himself, people he didn't even know. This had gone all too far.
Phil... I had to get to Phil.
I wasted no time running out of my house and hopping into a cab. My heart racing as I ran up to his front door. His mom answered with a confused and shocked look on her face, "Well, hello Daniel what can I-"
"Mrs. Lester is Phil here?!" I held every urge to bolt past her and run into Phil's room.
Her expression, however, told me what I had feared, "N-No Dan, he left just moments before you showed up, why? Is something wrong?" Her voice flooding with concern. I quickly nodded as I ran past her and up the stairs and into Phil's room only to find an empty room. Yet, in the corner of my eye, I noticed a piece of paper and a pen on his desk. I almost fell as I attempted to make my way across his room towards his desk.
"Dear mum; I'm so sorry... Sorry that I put you through so much pain because of me. Sorry that I made you believe everything was fine when it really wasn't. I love you. You've given me some of the best years of my life and I wish I could've done and been better for you."
My heart sunk when I saw my name written in his handwriting. hot tears streaming down my face.
"Dan... I love you. I don't think I could ever not love you. You make me a better person. And I'm sorry. I shouldn't have pushed you the other day about the messages... I just thought, well I'm not sure what I thought, I was just trying to help and in doing so I pushed you away... I don't know if you'll ever see this... Or if you'll want to even... But I want to thank you. You make me so happy. Happier than I've been in such a long time and when i'm with you... I feel... safe...
I love you, Daniel James Howell... Please never forget that..."
