Dans POV
-10-15 days later-
"Good morning Philly." I kissed his cheek as I went to the kitchen to get cereal.
"Good morning. Wanna watch the next episode of SAO while we eat?"
"Sure" I got my bowl and sat down at the table, sitting in my orange chair. I opened up my phone to scroll through tumblr. Looking at memes and what not about my latest YouTube video.
"Buzz" I checked my phone. It was a text from a unknown number. Well, not unknown to me at least.
"Hello Daniel"
"Alex? How the fuck did you get my number. I changed it."
"Oh dan, because what we have is real, and I can't let you slip away just like that. I didn't mean what I said and did. You know that."
"You mean when you got drunk and beat me and told be I was a fucked up peice of shit who didn't deserve you. Then when I tried to leave you beat me more. U didn't mean that!?"
"Daniel, I love you, and I need you back. We were meant to be!"
"No we aren't. Besides I'm with someone else now."
"ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS? Who the hell is this person! I bet they would just leave you with a blink of the eye, the don't like you for how I like you. They are probably just using you to get in your pants. You know I'm better than whoever that fucke-" I stopped reading his text. I started crying. I thought he went to jail. I thought he had another year.
Phil walked over to me. "Dan are you okay?" I just shook my head. I was the opposite of okay right now. I was scared for my life. I barely got out alive from Alex last time. "Dan, tell me what happened." I sighed. Trying to gather up enough courage to tell him.
"Three years ago, I met this guy at a bar. I went to the bar and sat down and went to order a beer. It had been a rough night because of a reason I can't remember. After I ordered, a man came up to me and payed for my beer. He told me his name was Alex and we started talking. He seemed like a really nice, down to earth guy. He told funny jokes and listened when you talked. After we had some beers I ended up coming over to his place. We ended up having sex and the next morning he had a really bad hangover. He was already really snobby. Not long after that day I realized he had a very bad drinking problem. One day I was making breakfast and I accidentally broke a plate or something and he grabbed me by my cured hair and started punching me. When I was on the ground he then kicked me. Over and over again. He raped me then beat me on a every day basis. When I tried to leave he would do it again, more painful than the last time. One day i went down stairs and I saw him hungover asleep on the couch. I saw a opportunity to get out. I packed a bag with a pair of clothes and tip toed my way out of a window. I went to Verizon to change my phone number and then I moved to California. It's also why I changed my hair back to straight. Now he texted me and told me-" I started to tear up again. I just handed Phil my phone.
Phil's POV
"Oh my gosh dan, I'm so sorry." I struggled to find words. I wanted to hit this guy so hard that he never saw daylight again. He was wrong on so many levels. I loved dan with all my heart and I'll be damned if he says I, Dans most trustworthy friend/boyfriend, just want to get in his pants.
"Just ignore him." Dan whispered.
"Ignore him? You think I'm just going to ignore him! He hurt you and abused you and and-"
"Phil, Alex is, he's a jackass. He's a person who would kill anything or anyone that gets in his way."
"What's he going to do?"
"Honestly, Phil, I don't know. He is also one of those guys who can find someone in a large city who lives in the sewers. He'll find me. And hurt you." The last sentence he whispered under his breath, trying to not believe that it was a fact. "I'm going to have to leave."
"Dan no. You can't leave me." Phil started to tear up. I grabbed his hands, whipping the tears from his face.
"Phil, I'm not going to let Alex hurt you. I'm also not going to leave. I would never leave you. But we will have to leave. By myself or both of us.
"When are we leaving?" Phil asked, a little more confident.
"We'll pack tonight and leave town tomorrow."
"You are the light of my life, even if you wear the darkest clothes everyday." Phil laughed slightly and so did I. "If this is our last day here for a while, let's make it count." Phil chirped.
"Alright Philly. What are we going to do?"
Wow um, okay, this went from ice cream romantic shit to a guy named Alex who abused dan. Honestly I'm making this up as I go so don't hate me.
