Phil's POV

"Phil, I'm g-gay." Dan said. I saw him break down. I rushed over, the ice pack from my hand flew across the room and I squeezed him tightly in my grip. Dan's head buried in my shoulder, wetting my t-shirt with his tears.
"Dan, that's what this is about!" I rubbed his back slowly with my slightly bad hand. "You are funny, amazing, talented man, Dan." I rambled on about how great of a friend he was and how he shouldn't care about the haters. "Your sexuality doesn't mater to me." I said. Lies. It matter. Well, I mean like, I hated how he was straight because I secretly always had feeling for him. But now I don't care. "I'm lucky to have you as a friend and nothing will change that." I said. "You don't need to worry about those hate comments. More people love you, fan over you, than the amount of people that hate you. I know thinking about how many people hate you is scary, but it doesn't matter. They only see a portion of your life. They don't know what goes on. Those filthy people can only judge you on what they hear and or see. Nobody knows what goes on behind the scenes." I told him

Dan's POV:
I broke the hug. "Thank you! You always know what to say!" I wiped the tears from my face, relieved. But the worst was yet to come.
PHIL: "I understand this was very hard to tell me and I really appreciate it. I love you.." I hesitated. Did I just hear what I thought I heard?

Phil's POV
IDIOT! Did I just say that?!?! OH MY GOD!
"You know, as a friend." I relaxed. Nice save phil! I never would have told Dan that. Thank god for that save. Dan flinched. It looked as if I hurt him. I tilted my head. "Dan..?" I looked deep into his eyes. "Are you okay?"
