The Way He Looks

The Way He Looks- Chapter 15

A/N:

YO YO YO! I'm just letting you guys know ahead of time, this chapter will most likely be crap, but it's whatever. 
*Very, very mild smut towards the end. I wouldn’t even call it smut. More like a reference to smut, I guess*

The next morning, Dan woke up feeling ecstatic. He was ready to spend the rest of this trip having fun and enjoying his independence. He wasn’t going to have to suffer the awkwardness with Phil could simply spend his time with him without any tension.

Though, he wished things could’ve ended up a bit differently. Phil had supposedly forgotten all about the kiss and though it kind made Dan relieved that he wouldn’t have to have some sort of awkward conversation with him about what they were, he still kind of wanted him to remember. He might’ve been crazy for thinking this, but he just felt that if he did remember, they’d be cuddling on one of the beds at that moment.

Dan stirred and began to push himself up before feeling someone sit next to him. “Morning,” Phil said cheerily and Dan smiled back lightly. “Hey,” he yawned, stretching his arms out and messing his hair up, “When’d you get up?”

Phil’s eyes fell onto the boys chest as he stretched, smirking slightly as the sheets moved down to reveal more of his tanned body. He quickly realized what he was doing and shook his head, casting his eyes to the floor. “Oh, um, not too long ago,” Phil rubbed the back of his neck, “I ordered room service to bring us some breakfast and then I was thinking we could head down to the pool for the day.”

“Yeah, that sounds great,” Dan smiled, “Um, can you get me my shirt?” Phil took one last glance at his bare skin before reaching for the nearest shirt on the ground, figuring it was the shirt Dan was talking about. He handed the shirt to him and watched as it covered the skin he was enjoying staring at.

The bell suddenly rang and Phil hopped up, rubbing his eyes to clear his mind of whatever was going on inside of it. What was his deal? He had already made an agreement with himself not to feel like this about Dan, but he couldn’t help it.

He shook his head as the back of his mind told him to go for it with Dan. He couldn’t. Dan was his first friend at the school and he didn’t want to ruin the amazing bond the two of them had. He didn’t even know why he was so attracted to Dan. He was just another guy Phil was friends with. Yet, something always stood out to him.

Phil opened the door and smiled at the waitress as he handed her the tip. He pulled in the cart of food and shut the door behind him. He dragged the cart in front of Dan’s bed and sat beside Dan, placing a fork and knife into his hands.

“Waffles and orange juice,” he announced before digging into his meal. Dan felt around with his fork before finding the food on his plate and digging in as well. He groaned as the sweet syrup flowed down his throat. “Wow, how did our school even afford this place?” Dan asked rhetorically, “I wish I could just live here.” Phil shook his head a giggled slightly before both of them finished their meal in silence.

After finishing off their breakfast, Phil hopped up and went to change in the bathroom. “I just need to get changed and then we can go,” he announced awkwardly before slipping into the bathroom. He quickly switched into his swim trunks and grabbed the bottle of sunscreen under the sink.

When he came out of the room he saw Dan sitting on his bed in his swim trunks as well, playing with the sheets as he waited for Phil. Phil smiled as he watched him mindlessly play with the fabric before shaking his head, knocking him out of his trance. “Okay, let’s go,” he called and Dan hopped up, came over and grabbed hold of his arm.
