That Boy in My Class (Phan)

My Best Friend

Dan's POV:

Phil and I spent the full school day talking and goofing around with eachother, the most fun I've had in ages with anybody! The school day finally came to an end. Phil walked me outside, when I saw my bus there. "Dan?", Phil said. "Yeah, Phil?", I replied. "Do you want to come over to my house?", he asked, looking at the ground with his shoulders up to his ears in complete shyness. "Sure! I'll have to ring my mum and make sure it's okay.", I replied with excitement. I pulled out my phone and called my mum, "Hey, mum, is it okay if I go to my friend's house?", I asked. "Sure! Tell me when you need picked up.", she replied. "Okay, see you later!", I said, hanging up after she said goodbye. Phil's mum was waiting in her car not too far from the building. "Come on, I'll show you to my mum's car!", Phil said, playfully nudging me. We walked over and got into the back seat of the car. Phil's mum looked into the back seat at us, "Hello, Phil! Who's this, now?", she asked, looking and smiling at me. "This is Dan, is it alright if he comes over for a while?", he asked. "Of course! Hello, Dan, I'm Philip's mum.", she said. "Hello!", I replied. It wasn't a long drive to Phil's house, we talked the whole way there, which is why it seemed so short. We stepped into Phil's house. It was a nice place, Phil led me to his room, me trailing my schoolbag behind me. Phil's room was amazing. His ceiling was covered in Buffy posters, he had nice green and blue wallpaper, a whole area of stuffed lions and his bed had colourful sheets which matched the wallpaper. "Your room is amazing!", I said. "Is it? I always thought it needed a bit of a tidying..", Phil replied, looking around. Phil then dropped his schoolbag at the door and fell onto his bed, leaning over one side. "Do you want to watch a film?", said the voice from one side of the bed. "Sure! You choose.", I replied, throwing my schoolbag at his bottom, him letting out a yelp and a chuckle.

Phil's POV:

Dan and I had rhe best time at mine. Mum went and got us a chippy and we just sat watching movies and playing on the Gamecube while eating chips. I had never had this much fun with anybody in my life. "Thanks for inviting me over, Phil, I'm having the best time ever!", Dan said, taking a sip of Coke. "Hey, isn't that what best friends do?", I replied. Dan looked at me, straight into my eyes, I saw his eyes start to water as a smile pulled at the side of his lip. He then pulled me into a hug. "Yes, it is what best friends do...", Dan said into my shoulder, a slight whimper in his voice. Why was he crying? I had no idea. I then wrapped my arms around him and hugged him back. When he let go, he looked at me again. "Phil... Can I tell you something?", he said, wiping a tear from his cheek. "Sure! What is it?", I replied. "I've never had a best friend... Ever... Until now..", he said, his eyes tearing up again. "Oh... Well, I will be your friend for life, and I will stand by you, you can tell me anything, we will do everything together and I'll always be here when you need me.", I said, Dan started to cry. "Aww, come here.", I said, pulling Dan into a hug, him wrapping his arms around me, crying into my shoulder. "I will do the exact same, Phil.", Dan whimpered. He tried to pull away, but I just hugged him tighter. I had never felt such warmness in my heart before, it was as if the one space in my heart which was empty just got just filled in. We both finally pulled away, Dan wiping his tears off his face with his sleeve. "How about we finish that game of Super Mario Sunshine, eh?", I said, patting Dan on the shoulder. "Yeah.", Dan chuckled. The rest of the night was great, we played Gamecume for ages until Dan had to go. I showed him to the door. "See you tomorrow, Dan!", I said, pulling Dan into a hug goodbye. "See you tomorrow, Phil.", Dan replied, hugging me tight. I waved as Dan pulled out of the driveway, him waving back through the window.

Dan's POV:

I waved at Phil through the car window, smiling like an idiot until I couldn't see him anymore. "Who was that, Dan?", mum said. "Phil. My best friend.", I said, secretly smiling. "Oh.. Well, if he wants to come over anytime, he's more than welcome!", she said, smiling at me. "Thanks, mum.", I replied.
