True Love Knows No Boundaries

Rollercoaster

~Phil's POV~

As Dan and I walked back towards my house something kept me from looking at him. Now, I'm not exactly sure what it was but, for some reason, my mind was telling that I didn't deserve this, again, I'm not sure what I didn't deserve but it was probably important. We were about a block away from my house when I saw the flashing lights, red and blue shining in the dark of night. I shot Dan an extremely worried look, he quickly nodded before we both started running towards the front door. "Mom!?" I I shouted as I burst through the doors, Dan quickly following me. I was expecting to see, well, I thought I was going to see a murder scene to be completely honest but fate seemed to be on my side as what I saw was nothing compared to what I had imagined. There in my living room was my mother, crying and surrounded by two, probably five-foot tall men. 

Swiftly my mother's eyes sprung open and met mine, hers overflowing with tears of joy and relief. She quickly got up from her seat and ran towards me, almost knocking me over as she wrapped her arms around me and pulled me close. "I THOUGHT I'D LOST YOU!" She sobbed as I held her close, resting my chin on the top of her head and slowly rubbing her back in reassurance. In the corner of my eye, I watched as Dan thanked the police and quietly shut the door behind them as they left. Slowly, my mom started to pull away from me, her soft hands cupped my face as she kissed my cheeks and smiled. "PHILLIP MICHEAL LESTER! HOW DARE YOU GIVE ME SUCH A SCARE!? I THOUGHT SOMEONE TOOK YOU OFF THE STREETS! I THOUGHT YOU WERE MURDERED IN AN ALLEY! I THOUGHT THE WORST!" Her tears slowly staining her already red cheeks as she looked into my eyes.

I couldn't find the right words to say, I could feel that lump in my throat begin to form once more, hot tears threatening to leave my eyes as I stared down at my innocent mother. "I-I'm so sorry mom..." I found myself stuttering the words but at the same time fighting to keep myself from breaking down in front of her. 

Her soft fingers slowly moving across the skin of my cheeks as she smiled, I found myself calming down almost instantly. I heard Dan gasp, we both turned towards him and he smiled at my mother, "You need to teach me that" my mom laughed as he smiled. 

~1:15 AM~

~In Phil's Bedroom~

Once my mom was asleep Dan and I made our way up to my room and laid there on my bed, just cuddling and both not wanting this moment to ever end. But as we all know, all beautiful moments can suddenly come to a horrible and shocking end. Dan was softly humming along to "Welcome to the Black Parade" by MCR (My Chemical Romance) when his phone vibrated. He closed his eyes as the light from his screen blinded him, once his eyes adjusted to the light he placed in his password to see what was sent.

I smirked, "What's your password?" 

Dan just laughed and gently placed our lips together, "It's PHAN" I just laughed. Of course, he made our ship name that Louise thought of his password. 

I hardly had time to look back up at him before he threw his phone across the room, thankfully it landed on my beanbag chair. His expression was an overflowing mix of; fear, anxiety, and sadness. Tears building up in his eyes as he started shaking slowly, his breath uneasy and uneven. "Dan?" I asked as I slowly sat myself up and pulled him close to me, slowly rocking him and attempting to calm him, "What happened love?" He didn't seem to be able to form words, he was just shaking his head, and softly crying as to not wake my mom. I let him sit back on the bed as I cautiously got up and made my way towards Dan's phone.  Once the rectangle was in my hand I slowly looked back towards Dan, he nodded, as if he knew I was asking for permission. Cautiously, I unlocked his phone and pressed his messages, totally unprepared for what I was looking for. However, when I saw it, my heart dropped and the anger and fear started boiling over.
