Phil's POV-

"Phil!" My mum squeals.

"Mum!" I squeal back, wrapping her in a big hug.

"Hi Phil" my dad gives me a hug and I hug him back merrily.

"Little bro!" Martyn greets me with a cuddle and an involuntary knuckle head, to which I whine, "Gerrof!"

"Hello Phil" Martyn's wife, Cornelia smiles sweetly. I give her a hug and kiss her cheek.

"Hey Cornelia" I greet.

"Phil, how have you been?" My mum asks.

"I've been quite good actually" I smile brightly.

"That's good to hear, how's Dan?" She asks.

"He's not bad" I stop myself from going into the subject of Dan because I don't want to tell her we're together for fear something will happen and we break it off. I mean, it's only been one week.

"You guys been getting along?" She asks.

"Yeah we're getting alone just fine, he's really nice" I mention.

"It's nice to hear you're happy, Phil. Hey, Mart, shouldn't you tell him now?" She implored. Martyn complies and stands up with Cornelia. 

"Ok, so, Cornelia is... PREGNANT!" He shouts. My suspicions have been confirmed! I get up and congratulate him and her and all that before sitting back down. Mum puts the TV on and I start think about Dan. I miss him. We usually have movie night on Saturday. I wonder how he's doing on his own. That's when I remember I said I'd skype.

"I'll be back in a bit, I just have to make a call" I proclaim, but they're all too engrossed in the movie to care. I go upstairs and sit in my old room and Skype Dan. He answers almost immediately.

"Phil!" He chirps happily.

"Danny!" I cheer.

"I didn't think you'd call! It's lonely here" he sighs.

"Hey lemme see a smile on that little face" I sing. A smile spreads across his face, showing his dimple and I forget how to breathe for a minute.

"Ayee there it is!" I smile, poking his cheek on the screen. "What are you up to?" I ask.

"I'm watching broke back mountain, warning, I might still be crying about it when you come home" he jokes. I giggle.

"Well if you're watching broke back mountain you must feel right at home" I point out. He lets out a breathy chuckle.

"Well, we don't have a tent so not quite" He shrugs, making me laugh. We keep talking for around ten minutes, then I realise I have to go or my family will get suspicious. We hang up and I go out and bump into my brother.

"Sorry Mart" I apologise.

"I heard you and Dan, are you two together?" He asks. I figure I can tell him, right?

"Yeah, but you can't tell mum and sad until I'm ready" I hiss.

"Yay! I'm happy for you bro," He pats my back. "Also I won't tell, don't worry" He smiles. I smile back at him.

The next day I get home excitedly. I open the door and close it, shouting 'I'm back!' as I do so. I don't realise Dan running at me until it's too late. He knocks me straight over and kisses me excitedly. I laugh and kiss him back, wrapping my arms tightly around him. He continues to kiss me in a series of little kisses.

"Dan... we're... going... on... a... date" I proclaim between kisses. He stops kissing me to smile joyfully.

"Is Phil Lester asking me out?" He asks.

"A little bit" I answer.

"Well all my dreams are coming true" he giggles and kisses me passionately. "So, when's the reservation?" He asks.

"One." I answer.

"Ok, so we have time to cuddle?" He asks hopefully. I answer by holding my arms out. He snuggles into them. I breathe in his scent. I know it's only been a day, but I missed him all the same.

"I missed you." He reads my mind. I smile at him.

"I missed me too." I giggle.

"You're a meanie!" He pouts.

"Well, you took a piece of me when you left." He shoots back.

"Dannn, that's too cheesy! You know I hate cheese!" I whine.

"Well we better not be going to a cheese restaurant then." He jokes.

"I'd sacrifice it for you." It's my turn to be cheesy. I can't hide the grin on my face. I kiss him firmly on the lips.

Later, we're both ready to go. I'm dressed in my black 'vibes' tshirt and black skinny jeans with my red plaid shirt over it. I go out into the living room to see Dan dressed in his oversized, black and white striped tshirt with ripped black skinny jeans.

"You look amazing!" I exclaim. He blushes.

"You do too." He states, kissing me on the cheek.

"The taxi's here." I say, grabbing his hand and the keys and leading him out of the apartment. We get to the restaurant. It's Mele E Pere.

"I love this place!" He jumps before kissing me. "Best boyfriend ever!" He adds, I giggle.

"Aren't I just?" I laugh. We go in and sit down across from each other, holding hands under the table. We order and I remember when that waitress thought we were a couple all those months ago. I remember wishing it would happen, well here we are now. I look over at Dan. He looks so gorgeous in the candlelight. Once I look at him he looks away blushing.

"Aww, were you gazing at me?" I ask. He blushes harder. I stroke his hand under the table and he looks over at me.

"You're so beautiful." He states, making me blush, too.

"Not as beautiful as you," I play with his fingers sweetly. "I remember when I first accepted I had a crush on you." I mention.

"Do tell." He raises my eyebrows. I giggle and blush darkly.

"Well, you were chilling on the couch watching friends, your hair was curled up because it rained the day before, and you just looked so pretty... it was then I realised that I had a crush on you." I explain. His cheeks go darker and I smile widely at him.

"Aww!" He coos.

"Ok, your turn!" I chirp.

"Ok so, you were making a cocktail clumsily and you dropped the cocktail shaker. I came over to help you clean it up and we made eye contact. I was drunk but I felt sober for a minute." He sappily recalls.

"I remember that." I smile at him. I study his eyes and he does the same.

"I care about you... so much." I state slowly.

"I care about you too. I really really do."
