Dan's view

The waiter comes back with our food as Phil was still hugging me. "Do you want me to come back later?" She asks. "No it's fine." I said. "Okay the teriyaki special and the steamed rice... Anything else that you had or want to get?" She asks. "No it's fine thanks." I said. She hands me the plate of teriyaki and then the big bowl of white rice and I use one hand for each grabbing the food and the other to hold Phil's hand as I'm hugging him. "Have a nice meal!" She said as she walks away.


"Phil. Our food is here." I whisper. Phil sits up still holding my hand. He's holding my right hand with his left hand just so we could both eat. How perfect is this? Our opposite hands are perfect for holding hands while eating. "Wait we have to share the bowl of rice?" Phil asks. "Yeah since we got two orders of steamed rice we just share it. If that's okay with you." I said. "Umm yeah that's fine." Phil said. "Are you sure?" I ask. "Yeah." Phil said as he stabs his chopsticks in the teriyaki.


"Phil if you want you can get a fork." I said. "No I'm determined to use these chopsticks!" Phil said as he stabs into the teriyaki with his chopsticks. "Do you want me to teach you how to use chopsticks?" I ask. "Pfft fine." Phil said. "So you wanna go like this." I said as I put my hands over his hands. "Phil you didnt even break the chopsticks apart!" I said smiling. "Whoops." Phil said. I break them and put them in Phil's hand. "So now after that you go like this." I put the chopsticks in the right hand formation they're supposed to be in. "And then you move them slowly to pick up your food." I said as I let go of his hand smiling. Phil drops his other chopstick and continues to stab his food.

Truth is I already know how to use chop sticks... Sort of. Sort ofish. I just wanted to have Dan holding my hand. "Why did I even teach you if you're just going to stab your food?" Dan asks smiling. "Well I just wanted you to hold my hand." I admit. "Oh my god. Such a dork." Dan said as he kisses my cheek.


I grab my spoon and grabbed some rice when Dan grabbed some rice at the same time. "Want to have a chopstick vs spoon battle?" Dan asks. "Yeah!" I said smiling.


We started to use the chopsticks and spoon like swords. "Sir Daniel! I forfeit this battle as I want to eat my rice!" I said as I swing my spoon. Dan blocks my attack. "Oh giving up so soon?" Dan asks as he swings his chopstick at me. "I am hungry!" I said as I attempt to block the attack. "Looks like I am victorious!" Dan said as he swings his chopstick. "I will never let you win!" I said as I swing one of Dan's chopstick across the resteraunt into someone's food.

Dan and I both hide under the table as fast as we could. "Oh my god I'm so sorry, Dan!" I said. "It's fine. Plus I could just use one of your other chopsticks. Since you probably will keep using your stabbing technique." Dan said. "Dan can we move from under the table, now? Being six foot three under a small booth is you know... Not comfy?" I said. "Yeah it should be safe now." Dan said.


We get out from under the tables like the little five year olds we are and continue to eat as if nothing happened.


As I'm eating my teriyaki I accidentally drop some on my blazer. At first I didn't notice until Dan started to look at me. "Really, Phil?" Dan asks as he points to the brown stain on my blazer. I look down at it and smack myself in the head. "Oh god. Good thing I brought some back ups!" I said as I pull out a backpack. "How long have you had that?" Dan asks. "What do you mean? This is the one you bought from the store in the park. Before I fell asleep I bought something." I said. I pull out a golden blazer. "Phil... I think it'll be best if you wear one of the shirts I bought you from the store. The muse merch?" Dan said. "But-" Dan interrupts me. "We're not at a fancy resteraunt. It's fine, Phil." Dan said.

Phil grabs the shirt from me and goes to change in the bathroom. "Such an adorable dork." I mumble smiling to myself.

As I was eating, two young men walk up to me. One of them had long wavy hair as if he's from California and the other with a buzz cut as if he was in the military. "So you're dating that 6'3 clutz?" One of them asks. "Hey! Don't call him a clutz!" I said. "Well he was the one who threw the chopstick." The man with the buzz cut said with his arms crossed. "Listen here pretty boy. You know you're too good for that clutz. So how about instead you hang out with my one of my friends. She is really cute, ya know." One of them said as he brushes his long hair. I look behind and see a girl with a lot of skin showing. "All we need is some money." The man with a buzz cut said. "No! You're disgusting!" I said. "Pfft says the gay lord! That's right I saw ya making out with the clutz!" The other man said. "Excuse me!?!" I yell. "I get to do what I want! And I dont care if I'm gay! You shouldn't either! What you should care about is how you're selling people women who look underage!" I yell. "I told you he wouldn't be interested. He's too posh and gay." The man with the long hair said.


As I was about to murder them with the razor on the bench because Dan you would not actually murder someone. Yeah but I would threaten them. Fair enough. Phil threw teriyaki at them. "Back off my boy friend!" Phil yells. "Oh hey its the clutz who threw the chopstick!" The buzz man said. I'm gonna call him buzz man. Dan you are an idiot. I don't care. "Hey how about you screw off and sell women to other gross men who clearly will never find love because all they care about is sex!" Phil said as he threw more teriyaki. "What did you just say?" They ask. "What are you also death?" Phil asks. "Oh it's on!" They said as they were about to punch Phil.


The waiter came back and dropped the jug of water. "What is going on here!" The waiter asks. The two men's eyes widen. "Get out of this resteraunt now!" She yelled pointing to the exit. "Wait wait!" They said. "NOW!" She yelled. "Whatever. Hey Rachel!" The guy with long hair yelled. "My name is Rebbeca." The woman who was sitting at a table said. "WHO CARES GET IN THE DAMN CAR!" They yell.


They leave and the waiter sighs and turns to us. "Omg. I'm so sorry. Are you two ok? Did they do anything to you?" She asks. The look on her eyes made it seem like it was her fault. "Yeah we're fine..." I lie. "I am so sorry! Here you know what? Free desert and sushi!" She said. "No it's fine really." Phil said. "We will still give you free food. Just hold on a little bit." She said as she walks off. What just happened.


I turn around and hug Phil tightly. "Dan?" Phil asks. "Thank you..." I mumble. "Thank you? What did I do?" Phil asks. I look up at Phil. "Are you serious? After all that happened today you still want to date me, the awkward guy?" I ask. "What do you mean?" Phil asks. "You found out I started to cut again, we had this big argument, I almost killed myself, I stood up on the table in the resteraunt making us get kicked out, I gave away all of the food we bought, I ended up broke because I left my card at home, and so much more!" I said hugging him tighter. Phil smiles down at me. "Dan. All those things are only a few reasons I love you. There are so many more reasons I love you I cant count." Phil said smiling. I smile. "Same goes for you, Phil..." I said. Phil kisses me on the cheek. "I love you..." Phil whispered in my ears. I close my eyes. I... I feel... I feel happy. I feel like I have a purpose now...
