Phil's POV

My face dropped. Come out?! Could he really do this to me? He would really fucking force me out? I took a deep breath. Maybe it's time... I picked up the phone and called Dan.

Dan's POV

My phone ringed, it was obviously Phil.

"Hello," I answered.

"Hey, Dan," Phil said, he sounded sad. Who could blame him? "Dan, I'm... I'm not sure if I can do this. What if my parents hate me? What if my friends won't talk to me? What if..."

"Phil, Phil, calm down. Your parents won't hate you and if they do then fuck them. And your friends? Who? Tyler and Henry? I can't believe you still talk to them? After everything that they did to us? To ME?! To YOU!! What the fuck Phil?"

"Don't you fucking dare bash my friends, Howell. They might not be the headmaster's kid but that doesn't mean they aren't cool! The whole thing was my idea, not their's so don't tell me who I can or can't hang out with. Your friends got me kicked out of school and I don't care that you hang out with them because I fucking love you!"

"I'm sorry, Phil. I shouldn't have said that, I shouldn't have dumped you, and I shouldn't have asked you to come out for me. It's just I'm so fucking done, I'm so fucking tired with everything, I thought this would be better for us, so we can be happy everywhere, not just having to sneak around."

Phil sighed, again, "shit shit shit. UGH. Just get you ass over here and let's us do this before I decide against it."

***

I pulled up to Phil's and walked to the door and knocked. I was dressed up rather nicely, in a white button up shirt with a navy blazer, nice jeans, and some loafers. It was Phil's brother who opened the door, FUCK. 

"Hey, Dan. Why so dressed up? Here to take my bro on a date?" Chris laughed.

"Ha ha what?" I smiled awkwardly.

"I'm just joking," he slapped me on the shoulder.

"Oh, okay." I shuffled into the house, just as I was doing that Phil came down the stairs. He looked amazing, as usual. His fringe was perfectly parted and his shirt was tight around the arms which showed off his muscles. God he was hot. 

"Hello, Daniel!" Phil's mum said when she saw me. "I didn't know you were coming here, I would have made more food for you."

"Mum, I... Uh need to tell you something. Dad too." Phil interrupted. 

"Okay, Philip, let's go into the living room to talk." Phil's mum smiled. "Honey go into the living room, Philip and Daniel want to talk to us."

Phil's dad sat in his chair and his mum sat on the arm, they were like this picture perfect family. And we were about to turn their world upside down...

Phil nudged me, "hey, you okay? Don't go getting cold feet on me now." Phil smiled, I think he was actually ready to do this. I returned the smile.

"So, Philip, you wanted to tell us something?" Phil's dad asked.

Phil and I weren't sitting as close to each other as we could have been, but right before he started to talk, Phil scooted over closer to me. "Dad, mum, I... Um... I. Dan... I..." 

Chris, who was standing in the door frame, yelled, "oh for God's sake's, mum, dad, Phil likes it up the ass!"

My face was so red and Phil looked like he might cry. 

Phil's mum rushed out of the room, probably to hide the fact she was crying. Phil's dad on the other hand was PISSED. "This better be a joke, Philip. No way in HELL will I have a fag under my roof!"

"No, father, it's not a joke. Dan and I are dating and you know what? I love him." He put his hand on my knee but I shoved him away. "Dan, what the hell?" He whispered. 

"Not here, Phil, not now."

"Get out." Phil's dad said.

Phil looked at his dad with the same way he looked at me when I told him it was over between us. "What?" he said lowly.

"GET OUT!" Phil's dad was yelling now, "I don't want to look at you, so get some shit and get your ass out of my house!"

Chris, who was at one point smiling was now in shear fear for what he was witnessing. "Dad what the hell are you saying to him?" 

"Chris don't you question me! He doesn't belong in this family!"

"Fuck you, Dad! Phil can stay with me in my apartment at uni! Don't think you'll be seeing me anytime soon!"

"FINE I HOPE YOU CAN FIGURE OUT A WAY TO PAY FOR YOUR SCHOOL!"

"Piss off, Old Man."

Phil, who was standing there with a backpack full of his stuff, couldn't believe what he was watching. "Chris are you seriously gonna let me do that?"

"Yea, little bro, you can do that. Let's leave before this piss lord's head explodes"

Phil, Chris, and I walked to Chris's car.

"Phil... I don't even know what to say. I am so sorry. This is my fault, I should have never forced you out."

"You know what Dan," he didn't call me Howell, maybe he wasn't angry with me, "I'm not upset with you. If this is how my parents felt anyways then I would have learned anyways. I'm actually glad you were here with me, because at least I still have you." Phil kissed me, but I pulled back. "Okay, Dan, what is your problem? You've been pulling away from me!"

"I'm sorry I just don't like to be showy in public."

"YOU don't wanna be showy? Seriously? You wanted to come out so we COULD be showy. And now I have to live with my brother just so I'm not homeless!"

I pulled Phil in for a long kiss, "I'm sorry. Okay, I'm so so so sorry." I leaned in and whispered in his ear, "you wanna come over tonight and we can have a little fun?"

Phil smiled, "I just need to drop my stuff off at Chris's place."

Chris looked at us funny, "Phil? Don't you realize that my flat is 3 hours away? If you come live with me you will be going to school near the Uni, you won't be able to come back and fourth between here and there."

Phil dropped his stuff on the ground, "WHAT?!"
