Dan's POV-
My mum's coming over today. I furiously tidy the house even though it's pretty tidy already.
"Phil, you need to start closing the cupboard doors!" I nag. He giggles.
"Sorry, Dan, I like having things open" he shrugs. Realising this sounds dirty, I shoot him a look. He realises and chuckles.
"Dan, get your mind out of the gutter!" he laughs. I do too.
"My mum's coming in an hour. Get ready and I'm going to get ready too" I order.
"You sound like a mum" he mumbles. I flick him on the nose, earning an over exaggerated gasp of horror. I giggle at this. He pokes his tongue out at me, before going to get ready.
After an hour, I hear the doorbell. I rush to the door, check the room one last time, before I open the door. My mum stands there with a bag in her hand.
"Danny!" she squeals, throwing her arms around me. I hug her back tightly.
"Hullo, mum" I smile.
"How have you been? This place looks lovely!" she compliments.
"Thank you, I've been great" I inform her. Phil comes into the room.
"You must be Phil!" she smiles, running over to him and hugging him. Taken by surprise, Phil awkwardly pats her back.
"Hello, Mrs Howell,how are you?" he asks.
"I'm very well thank you, I trust Dan's been living up to the expectations of a roommate?" she teases.
"Harhar very funny, mum" I say sarcastically.
"Yes he has, Mrs Howell, he can also make a good cup of coffee so I'm all happy" he jokes.
"Please, call me Jackie" she smiles.
"Ok, Jackie" he beams at her.
Later, my mum and I stand in the kitchen while I make tea.
"Soo, Phil seems nice" she mentions.
"He's lovely" I agree.
"Do you like him?" she asks. I turn around and face her. Ever since I came out to her she's been asking if I like this or that guy.
"No, mum, not in that way" I sigh. Mum looks at me curiously.
"Ok, sure, honey" she shrugs. Deciding not to argue with her, I let it slide. I bring the tea into the living room.
"So, Phil, tell me about yourself" she says. Phil begins to explain about his life and my mum listens intently. I already know she wants Phil and I to be together.
"... and then I met my best friend, Kenny-" Phil says. I take a sip of my tea.
"Ooo, Dan had a boyfriend named Kenny!" she exclaims. My eyes go wide and I choke on my tea.
"Shit" my mum whispers. I cough, reaching for a tissue. Phil looks confused.
"Mum! Why would you say that?!" I scream.
"Dan I'm sorry I-"
"I don't want to hear it, mum, next time keep your mouth shut!" I shout at her, before going to my room in embarrassment.
