That Boy in My Class (Phan)

Are You Going?

Dan's POV:

I went upstairs to my room, took off my blazer, undid the second button on my shirt and fell onto my bed. I did my homework and then went to bed. I was up half of the night, smiling. I had a best friend. Finally. One of my own. Someone to be there for, someone to talk to, someone to look out for me, someone I can share secrets with and tell everything. It felt amazing... As if my heart was frozen for 18 years and it was finally thawed.

I woke up early, five minutes ahead of my alarm, which I turned off. I got dressed and went downstairs to get something to eat. I was halfway through a piece of toast with Nutella when my mum came down. "Dan, where is your tie?", she asked, pointing at the empty collar on my shirt. I looked down, "Oh, crap! I left it at Phil's!", I exclaimed, facepalming my forehead. "Well, make sure you get it back!", she said, going out of the room. I had an extra five minutes, so I helped myself to another piece of toast which I ate on the way to the bus stop. I sat for a few minutes until the bus came. I stepped on and you would never guess who I saw. It was Phil! "Dan! Sit here!", he said, patting the seat I sat in on the first day. "Hey, Phil!", I said, ruffling his hair as I sat down. "You forgot something last night.", Phil said as he pulled my tie out of his blazer pocket. "Oh, thanks!", I said, taking it and putting it on. "I like your uniform! It suits you!", I said. "Does it? I think my blazer is a bit big, the sleeves go past my wrists...", he replied, showing me his sleeve. "I think it looks good!", I replied. We chatted the whole way to school. In form room, we all got given a permission slip for the school trip which was next month. "You will all be going to Blackpool for two days. You will need to bring £5.00 with you for the trip and spending money. You may wear your own clothes if you wish, and bring a clean change of clothes for the next day. Also, bring your generic overnight things like toothbrushes and such, okay?", said Miss Payne. "Are you going?", I asked Phil. "I sure am! You?", he asked. "Of course!", I said. "All slips need to be in by Friday, okay?", said Miss Payne. Phil and I put our slips in our schoolbags. "You all can chat for the last 20 minutes of form room.", Miss Payne said, turning to her computer. So, Phil and I got chatting. "You know, I have never seen that shade of brown in anyone's eyes before!", Phil chuckled. "Really? I don't really like them, to be honest...", I replied, blushing. "Well... I think they're pretty...", Phil mumbled, looking at the floor. What did he just say? Did he just say I have pretty eyes? I could literally feel my face blushing. "I think yours are too...", I murmured back, looking away then looking back when I saw Phil turn to me. "Like, you could go swimming in those eyes!", I said. "Oh, God, I sound really girly now...", I chuckled bashfully. "No, it's fine!", Phil said.

Phil's POV:

Oh my God, what did I just do... I feel so embarrassed now! Ugh, just forget it, Phil, you were just being nice. When I got home that day, I gave my mum the permission slip to go on the trip. "This is for the trip to Blackpool next month. We're staying at a hotel overnight, I need to pay £5.00 for it.", I said to mum, aching for her to say it was okay. "Is your friend, Dan going?", she said. "Yeah, he is.", I replied. "Okay, get me a pen out of the kitchen.", she said. I walked into the kitchen, doing a mini fistpump before I went back into the living room. I was all giddy with excitement as she signed the form. "There is a fiver in my purse, Phil, you can use that.", she said, giving me the form back. "Thank you!", I said, going into the kitchen to get the fiver from mum's purse. I went up to my room, lept onto my bed and grabbed my phone, calling Dan. "Hey, Phil!", said Dan. "Hey, Dan! So, I'm allowed to go on the trip!", I exclaimed, smiling like an idiot. "So am I! Aaah! We're sitting next to eachother on the bus, right?", Dan said excitedly. "Duh! Of course we are!", I said. We talked for ages until I had to go to bed. "Phil?", Dan said before I went. "Yeah?", I replied. "Thanks for choosing me as your best friend.. If you didn't sit next to me in the first place, I would have been too shy and socially awkward to even look at you.", Dan said. A smile spread across my face, "You're welcome, Dan. I'm glad to have you as my best friend.", I said. "And so am I for having you.", Dan yawned, "I should be going to bed.". "Yeah, me too. Bye!", I said. "Bye! Goodnight!", Dan replied. "Night! Don't let the Squirtle Squad bite!", I said, we both chuckled and then I hung up, putting my phone aside and dosing off to sleep.
