Forever (Phan)

Phil's POV-

"Oh yeah, Dan, Kenny's coming over today" I mention.

"Oh, ok" he mumbles disinterestedly.

"Something wrong?" I ask.

"Oh nothing, it's just that I get the feeling Kenny... doesn't like me" I say.

"What? That's ridiculous, what's not to like about you?" I ask, genuinely meaning it. The man is perfect!

"A lot" he answers. I tut at him.

Kenny comes over and wraps me in a big hug.

"How are you?" he asks.

"I'm good, how about you?" I ask.

"Better now I'm with you" he says. I giggle and wrap him in a hug, made uncomfortable by that remark. Dan stands awkwardly.

"Oh... hi Dan" Kenny's tone drops as he sees Dan. Maybe he really doesn't like Dan.

"Hello, Kenny" he nods at him.

"U- um sit down, I'll make tea" I point at the sofa. Kenny takes a seat. I make the tea and we all sit down. Kenny starts rambling about his job but I'm not really listening. I'm looking over at Dan, who is pretending to listen. I love his face, the way his mouth moves when he talks, the slightly tanned shade of his skin, the brown locks that fall into a fringe across his forehead, his bright brown eyes that hold so many emotions... ok so maybe my feelings towards him aren't fully platonic... or not even platonic at all...

"Phil?" Ken asks.

"Yeah?" I snap out of my daze.

"Can I talk to you for a second?" he asks.

"Sure" I answer, and he pulls me to the kitchen.

"Do you like Dan?" he asks.

"Dan? No, of course not, I was just day dreaming because I barely had any sleep last night" I shrug. "Why, anyway?" I ask.

"I just don't think Dan's right for you" he says. I give him a judging stare.

"How so?" I ask.

"Well, for one you barely know the guy, for two he lacks social skills, and for three the man's dull" he lists.

"You don't know anything about him! Plus it's not up to you who I date or like or whatever so keep your nose out of it" I scold him, before we go back into the living room. I sit next to Dan just to prove some kind of point although I'm not sure what point it is.
