Dan woke up to the routine knocking on his window. He slowly dragged his heavy body out of bed, he was having another migraine. However, he wasn't allowed to stay home from school because of them anymore. Even though his dad wouldn't know because he was on another business trip.

"Morning Daniel" Phil grinned as Dan opened the window.
"Fuck" Dan mumbled quietly
"Yep- You're not going to school" Phil climbed through the window
"Phil I have to-" Dan was interrupted by Phil bridal carrying him to his messy bed.
"Too bad" Phil smirked "I can tell that you're way too out of it. Get some rest, darling, text me when you wake up" He plonked a soft kiss into Dan's wavy mess of hair. "Mmkay?" His voice was quiet and calm, reminiscent of the last time Phil insisted he took full control of Dan when he had a migraine. 

Dan could only nod, as the pain became too overwhelming to even speak. He was glad Phil was making him stay home, Dan wasn't sure how he'd survive an entire school day in such pain.

He slowly faded back to sleep.

It was early morning, August 2013. The air was cold and crisp, as it brushed onto Phil's face. He pulled his scarf up over his mouth in an attempt to keep more warmth in.
There were occasional cars driving past, not many, though. He had just pressed send and was now struggling to put his glove back onto his hand.
'Really?' Dan replied.
Phil was smirking, he had the opportunity to troll Dan, or just let him be happy.
Phil chose happy, but he always chose happy.

It was cold, 4 degrees Celsius to be precise. Phil was trudging back to his car, using street lights as his only source of real light, to avoid wasting his phone battery.
He was focused on his breathing. He had nothing else to focus on, so breathing was the best option.
Inhale, exhale. Inhale, exhale. Inhale, exhale. Inhale exh-
A metallic crack ran out through the empty streets as Phil collapsed

Dan woke up crying. Broken sobs falling from his mouth in an attempt to rationalize what had happened. The pain in his head was replaced with sadness and fear. His senses were all out of whack. Dan couldn't do anything but cry.

"Dan?" Phil asked, opening the door. "Shit-"
"It- You- My- I- Phil-" Dan couldn't form one coherent sentence
"Darling- How can I help" Phil cooed
"Don't ever leave" Dan replied softly.
"Of course, what happened in the dream?"
"You- You got shot" Dan whispered
Phil bit his lip for just a second "I'm here now darling"
"Pip-" Dan looked into Phil's eyes "Can you just- lie with me?"
"Of course, Darling" Phil smiled, climbing next to Dan.

And Dan snuggled into Phil, and they lay there, at peace.

"Thank you" Dan whispered
"Anytime Dip" Phil mumbled into Dan's messy hair, kissing it softly.

"Promise you won't leave me?"
"We can shake on it"

So they did. Phil promised to never leave Dan
