Family (A Dan Howell Fic)

.:Brunch Fight:. (Dan's POV)

We sit in the car and I hear her in the back moving. I look at her in the mirror and see she is changing.

"Take a picture, it will last longer." Oh god she saw me. I tried to hide my embarrassment.

She seemed comfortable around us. As she scolded Phil after. I was driving to the department store and hear Phil's stomach growl and pull up. I thought he had already eaten, though.

"Was it that loud?" Alyssa says. Oh shoot, it wasn't Phil. It was Alyssa. I don't want to seem rude. I've already seen her without a top and now I'm commenting on hunger. I realize Phil hasn't answered her so I say the first thing that pops into my mind.

"Yeah." Ok now I'm really rude. Phil nudges me and we walk into the restraint and order. Then we sit down. I was going to sit next to Alyssa but I didn't want to be like a "predator" trying to be close to her. She was on her phone for a few minutes and then went to use the toilet.

"Order 17!" The woman said over the intercom. We took the food and retuned to the booth. I sat across Phil this time and maybe she will just go with it and sit with me.

I saw her leave the toilet and got excited. Then looked at Phil and our food to act casual.

"You like Alyssa don't you?" Phil asks.

"Why would you say that?!" I sound really obvious. I hope he doesn't tell.

"Because you were rude to her, and then Tried to be sweet, and then playful. That's Cosmo Magazine's top signs a guy likes you."

I just stared at Phil. What the even hell.

"Um, why do you know that?"

"I was at the dentist and I left my phone". He said like it was the most normal thing.

Alyssa was taking some time, it doesn't take 2 minutes to walk from there to here, this was a small place. I look for her and she stares at me and mouthed "help". Oh god what do I do. What if he is a wrestler, what if he has a gun.

"E-excuse me Phil. He doesn't look up from his phone.

I make a conscious decision to confront him, no matter the outcome, which I was really afraid of.

"Hey" I sort of whisper, but he can't hear me. I take a deep breath

"Hey!" He turns around is is a lot shorter than me. People watch and I feel the pressure.

"Sorry mate. She's taken." He scolds. I can see her shaking a bit. Was I really going to pretend I was her boyfriend. What if she thinks that's weird. Also I really hope he doesn't have a gang behind him.

"Yea, be ME!" Emphasis on "me". She looks surprised at my actions. I've scared her and now she probably thinks I'm crazy. I even start to shake. But stand tall and a lot of people are watching. Phil comes up behind me and stands next to me. I feel really tall.

"Oh, You have two boyfriends? He looks at Phil disgustedly. How can someone be so rude. I bet I was acting this rude yesterday.

"Sllllllut." She looks at her the same way he did Phil. That was it. That was the line. I didn't know Alyssa well. Or at all. But nobody should yell at a girl. Especially if she is alone and small. Alyssa was a bit small, but cute for her size, like a stuffed animal. I literally lost control and punched him in the side of his face.

It really hurt my hand and didn't do much damage to his face.

"God, I didn't like you anyways, fat ass." He looks at her and turns out the door.

I see her tears and I think I scared her, she wasn't into violence.

"I know you don't like violence, but I swear I wasn't gonna punch him until- she walked up to me, probably to slap me or something.

I close by eyes waiting for the impact. She grabbed my face. Here it goes.

Se kissed me. I opened my eyes and she was staring at me, like she had made a bad decision. I smiled and grabbed her waist. And kissed her again.

"What about me? I was all tough too!" Phil added

She pecked Phil on the cheek. Then the restraint clapped with happiness. I felt like a superhero.
