Catch Me Before I Fall (A Phanfiction)

Chapter 6

*Dan's POV*

I couldn't sleep all night, all I could of was Phil, I didn't believe him when he said he fell down the stairs I know there's something he isn't telling me. As I was getting ready for school I realized Phil didn't text me, since we started hanging out he would always text me asking if i'm ready, I decided that I should drop by his house to see if he's okay.

I reached Phil's house and knocked on the door it opened itself, his brother might have left it open which was really careless. "Phil?" I called his name but no answer I went upstairs to his room and found a sleeping Phil, he looked so cute when he was sleeping I could watch him sleep all day it was probably something I could do and not get bored but we were going to be late for school. I sat on his bed and leaned down and gently kissed his cheek seconds later he slowly opened his eyes.

"Dan?" He said in his morning voice looking up at me. "Good morning" I said giving him a small smile. He smiled back before realizing the time "Crap we're late for school sorry" he quickly sat up and winced in pain. "Are you okay?" I asked him "Y-yeah I just fell remember.." he said in pain. I didn't believe him one bit "No, something happened and you're not being honest Phil" He looked at insisting he's telling the truth and that nothing happened "I don't believe you, look I really care about you Phil please tell me what happened" Phil eventually gave in, he took a deep breath before revealing what really happened.

"Ben, he uh hit me.." I stared at him with complete shock "He pushed me down to the ground and then he kicked me" he didn't look up at me. "Phil..you don't deserve this.. You need to turn him in" I said taking his hand "I-I can't" his voice started getting shaky "What? But why? He's so horrible to you!" What was Phil thinking how could he not turn Ben in?! I looked up at Phil who was crying now "T-this house is the closet thing that reminds me of my m-mum Dan. If I get Ben arrested they'll send me to some foster care I-I can't leave his house. I-I will be 18 in a few months until then I don't want to do anything"

Poor Phil, I didn't know how tough his life must have been, I put my hand on his cheek and wiped his tears away "How about we ditch school today, you're in too much pain to go I'll stay with you" I said giving him a small smile. Phil smiled back at me I hated seeing him sad a kind person like him doesn't deserve to be sad, he tried getting up and winced in pain I made him sit back down "Woah what do you think you're doin?" I asked him. "I need to change my shirt its dirty" he said I could hear the pain in his voice, I got up and found a shirt for him so he doesn't have to get up he smiled at me and took his shirt off I could tell he was still in pain. I noticed all the bruises poor Phil "Sorry, my body looks horrible I know" he sounded sadly, I sat back down next him and did something that neither of us were expecting, I kissed his bruises, he flinched a little when I kissed one of them "I'm sorry" I said "It's okay, I-I liked it" he smiled at me I smiled back feeling my cheeks turn pink. I helped him put his shirt back on and we just sat there.

"I'm kindah hungry" Phil said after a bit "Want some breakfast?" I looked him, I didn't want to eat but the way he asked I couldn't say no, I helped him downstairs into the kitchen and made him sit deciding its best that I make something. I made omelettes for the both of us which Phil ate happily.

"Should I get you painkillers?" I asked him. "Yes please, they're in the cabinet in the bathroom" I walked to the bathroom and got the bottle of painkillers and handed it to Phil who took the bottle from me but then got concerned.

"Dan? What's this?" He said holding my wrist. Shit...my cuts.

*Phil's POV*

When Dan handed me the bottle of painkillers my sight fell on his wrist I saw cuts. "Dan? What's this?" Dan's smile faded he looked confused "Uh..M-my pet cat scratched me.." He said, I knew he was lying cat scratches weren't like that. "Dan, be honest with me" he sat down next me, tears started filling his eyes and he started crying.

"Okay, I-I cut, I've been doing so for a couple of years now" his voice was shaky, I put my arms around him "But why?" I whispered I felt like I was  about to start crying too. "I-I just feel so worthless, no one likes me, the bullies at school call me a fat emo that's why I don't eat much either" he was crying a lot now.

"Dan.. Listen to me, you're perfect, you're worth so much you can't imagine"  he looked up at me and I wiped the tears from his face "I like you, you're not fat at all you are perfect you hear me?" I looked at him for a few seconds and leaned in and kissed him, I pulled away and smiled at him "No one has ever treated me this kindly" he said to me smiling. He put his arm around my neck and pulled me closer to him and kissed me passionately, I kissed him back and wrapped my arms around his waiste not wanting to let him go. We both pulled away for air and just hugged onto each other I could tell he was being careful not hurt me "You mean the world to me Dan and I promise I won't let anything happen to you"
