10-Setting Up

~Dan's POV~

The day that Chris, PJ, and I made the plans to meet up after school. We discussed every possibility there was. The three of us sat in PJ's room. It was far too risky to do it at my house witih my dad and all. If he found out about this, he'd kill me.

Chris finised writing something down on the notebook he had in front of him. "Okay, so according to my lovely Daniel over here, Phil is a complete romantic one. That would explain your guys' cheesy little dates."

I rolled my eyes slightly at him, "Yes he does, but I don't want it to be completely cliché, I want it to be different."

"Well firstly you gotta remind him why you guys got together in the first place," PJ said to him, "Otherwise he could just keep in mind everything that recently happened and just leave."

I sighed nodding, I knew that was true, "Well why don't I have him go through our whole relationship then?"

"What like a scavenger hunt thing?" Chris asked.

"Yeah I guess it could be, I could make the clues and we can put them in certain places," I said, "Will I be at the end then?"

"That would probably be what you'll need to do," PJ nodded, "Then me and Chris can stand aside and see if he kills or kisses you."

"You're just so optimistic," I told him with a small chuckle, "Let's start the cards then."

Chris grabbed his laptop and turned it on, "Let's make them all fancy and cute," he said and moved by Dan, "Okay so the first one, where is it going and where is it leading?"

"Hallway where I first ran into him, cafeteria at lunch that same day," I told him.

"We need to make it not so obvious though," PJ added and thought.

I nodded, "I want to make it like an apology almost, like I made this mistake here and then a clue to where he's going to next."

Chris nodded, "Okay so like first card will be, 'mistake one: blah blah blah' and then under that the clue."

I nodded, "Yeah like that, that'll be perfect."

"Alright then let's get to work then," PJ smiled.

We three sat and worked typing up all the cards making trips to the store for envelopes and numbered everything putting them together and setting up the times and who'd do what.

~Friday~

Phil wasn't at school again that day. I was really worried about him still. But I knew that owrrying had to be set aside, since tonight, was the night. I was already beyond nervous about how it'd turn out. My biggest fear, getting rejected again. I was basically shaking with fear of it.

I walked back home and Chris arrived soon after. We gathered up the envelopes and I quickly got changed into the outfit that I had picked out and Chris drove around, placing all the envelopes where they needed to go.

We then drove off again. To the location where Phil would head to last. I'd meant to bring him there in the past, but the two of us had never gotten around to it before...well...

We stopped at the clearing in the trees and I climbed out grabbing the box from the back of the car and walking through with Chris following behind carrying a large cooler.

In the clearing sat a little white gazebo. I walked up to it and set the box down. Me and Chris strung some lights up and turned them on and he assisted me in unfolding a blanket to set out the blanket I'd brought along with some plates and glasses. I set everything up trying to make it as perfect as possible for Phil.

Chris pulled open the cooler and pulled out the containers of food I'd made (for the most part) and packed up. Just chicken and noodles along with some of Phil's favorite sweets to help maybe curve his mind just a little bit...

As soon as everything was done, Chris gathered up the box and cooler bringing it back to his car, "So me and PJ will leave then and you two do your thing," he said, "I'll be home then, if you need a ride call me."

"I will," I nodded.

"Okay, good luck then, don't fuck up, please don't fuck up," Chris patted my shoulder and got into his car driving off. I paced nervously back and forth as I waited. I didn't know what would happen, I couldn't plan anything to do or say because I didn't know what Phil would say, hell I didn't even know if Phil was going to show up. I just had to wait it out and see.

And that scared the living hell out of me.
