Phil's POV

I went to my old house that I technically still own as everyone who was going in the cars were coming here, just because it was practical and it was the last home pj lived in I guess.

I had to come here earlier than the rest so I could open the door and maybe tidy up a bit, from what I remembered it was quite messy of the day of the incident and I had only been back once to get the essentials, and I took the least amount of time in there as I could. I hadn't really been back, not really. I even left the massive collection of games consoles and games because I couldn't bear the thought of playing the games without PJ's smile filling the room on the occasion I let him win. With Dan, though, he's like a master of the games he has, so it is very rare that I win, even when I did win, he let me... I guess it's a cycle.

As I got the dusty keys out of my pocket, my hands were shaking, but Dan put his hand on my arm and I felt okay and I put the key in the lock and turned it. I twisted the knob and pushed the door open.

"You ready?" Dan asked me.

"Kinda have to be...and Dan..." I replied.

"Yeah..."

"If I... you know... pass out at the service before or while I'm speaking can you deliver my speech for me? It will be in my left pocket of it happens before"

"Oh... are you sure that's okay? I didn't really know him..."

"It's not your words Dan they are mine, just tell them that I have asked you to do it and why then just do it... they all know me, and they have known me a while... and you are my boyfriend, it's what people would expect you to do, you know?" I replied.

"Okay then, sure, I'll do that for you if it does happen" Dan smiled at me.

We walked into the house, and Dan closed the door. It was so dark and quiet. And it was very messy. I just laughed thinking about the night before it all happened. We invited friends round and we had a board game party. Twister was the most hilarious game though. The mat was still on the floor.

"Oh... Phil... i knew you were messy but jeez..." Dan giggled.

"Yeah... this wasn't my fault... peej planned a board game party the day before and we both just fell asleep on the twister mat watching a film after they had all left." I laughed slightly at parts when I told the story. "I completely forgot about the party until now... anyway... we need to clean up...a lot"

"Okay... I don't know where anything goes though" Dan replied.

"Why don't you wash the pots or something?"

"On it" Dan smiled.
