Different kind of best friend (Phan)

The accident

PHILS POV

I looked up from my phone to see dan, he'd been in his room for a couple of hours. He looked pale. He was ill, I could tell.

"Hey, do you want to stay here? I can go by myself. I honestly don't know why you'd want to come with me anyway my parents house is boring." I said to him trying not to sound like I didn't want him to come but I don't think I was very convincing.

He gave me a cold reply and walked back to his room, I think I've hurt his feelings. I went to my room to pack because I really needed to see my parents.

I think Dan has gone to sleep because when I'd finished packing I couldn't hear him doing anything so I decided to watch tv until I needed to go.

DANS POV

I got out of bed and went into the kitchen, to find Phil staring at me. He kinda looked like he was examining my face for some reason.

Then he asked me if I wanted to stay at home and not be with him. Why didn't he want me? I didn't know. I was shocked and a little scared because I was feeling a little bit sick.

"Yeah whatever you want." I coldly replied.

He looked really sad and I don't know why. Im so confused he basically just said he didn't want me to be with him and now he was sad! Argh. I will never understand that man! I walked back to my room trying not to show I cared.

I think Phil went to his room because a couple of minuets later I went back out because I really wanted a pain killer and some water. I then went back to bed for a couple more hours.

I woke up at 7:56pm and Phil had to go and 9 for his train to Manchester so I still had a couple of hours to make it up to him for acting like a child, I decided it was best I showered first. I went to the bathroom.

PHILS POV

I just saw Dan go into the bathroom, I'm glad he's up, I've got to go in a couple of hours and I really do want him to come with me, it was so boring at my parents all they did was talk about family and I honestly didn't care that much.

I heard the shower turn on which I hope is a good sign. He's feeling better and wants to come with me. I grinned to myself at the thought.

DANS POV

I took a small piece of metal from behind the toilet and went into the shower, I felt the boiling hot water scold my body but I deserved it.

I'd acted like a child to Phil when he didn't want me to go with him, why would he want me to go with him? I'm stupid and pathetic.

I wouldn't want me to go with me if it was my decision. I took the small metal object and sliced my skin open with it, I did it once and I felt no pain, the water wasn't even hurting me anymore, I needed to be punished!

I did it again, and again, and again, until the bottom of the bath was full of red blood splats from where the water didn't reach, I went to wash them away but I slipped.

PHILS POV

I just heard a loud bang, I was worried "DAN?" I shouted, no reply. I went up to the bathroom door and shouted "dan!" Again and still no reply.

I refused to put a lock on the door for this reason, I'm so glad I did now. I walked into the bathroom, the shower was still running and it felt like a sauna, it was way too hot for him to be showering in.

I couldn't see him, I looked over the bath and saw blood, a lot of blood. Dan was lying there covered in blood. I quickly turned the tap off and rung 999. I didn't know what to do.

I rung my mom "Hey mom, yes everything's fine but I don't think I can come over yet. I've got a lot of work planning to do and I need to do it at the studio but I should be over some point in the next week. Sorry!" I was being very apologetic, I think she suspected something.

"Yes that's fine sweetie, you need a job. I understand. Come over when you can though." She seemed suspicious but also totally fine with it at the same time, should I be suspicious of her? I don't know. Anyway dan was the problem right now.

"Yes I will, don't worry!" I quickly said then hung up.

*knock at the door*

Finally, it feels like it's been forever, "my friend fell over I. The shower and he's lying in the bathtub, I didn't know what to do so I rung you! There's blood everywhere! Is he going to be okay?" I said all this pretty fast so I'm not sure they had time to take it all in.

"Where is he? How long ago did it happen?" They asked me, I was so scared and upset I didn't know anything, "10 minuets I think, he's in there" I said pointing to the open door which was still letting out a load of heat.
