Demons (phan)

Chapter 3

(Still Dan's POV)

He looks at me for a second, and then starts to talk in a hushed voice.

"Phil.. He is very lonely. He is an outcast-"

"Why??? He seems pretty cool."

"Phil has some problems. But I thought-"

"What kind of problems?"

He sighs and looked really annoyed. Oops.

"You'll find out! Do you think you could go out with Phil?"

Woah. His dad is asking me this?

"Um..."

"I'll even pay you! Here's one hundred pounds right here.." He digs into his pocket, takes out his wallet and removes £100. "Take it, please."

I reluctantly reach across the table and look at all the money lying in front of me. I'd go out with Phil for free, but money is only a bonus... I've never seen this much money before..

I look back at his pleading eyes and slowly grab the money.

"Now, there's one thing... You can't fall in love with Phil. And you can't let him fall in love with you either."

"Why???"

I see him clench his fists and I can tell he's really mad.

"Like I said. Phil has problems."

I just quickly nod. I don't want to get him any more angry than he already is.

"Do you have any clothes I can borrow? Can I sleep here tonight?"

"Yeah.. Go ask Phil. His room is the first one on the left when you go up the stairs." He calms down and continues to wash the dishes.

I walk up the stairs and reach his room. I knock quietly.

"Phil?"

"Hello? Come in."

I open his door to see him laying on the floor on his laptop.

"Your dad said to ask you for some uh clothes to borrow.." My voice is really shaky. I wish I could act normal around him..

"Oh yeah sure!" He motions to his dresser. "Take whatever you like."

I look through his clothes, and sadly, he doesn't have any black shirts. Its okay though, they're still his clothes, so I'm okay with it.

"Did my dad tell you?"

I grab the clothes I want and close the drawers. "Yeah. He did. About um us?"

He nods happily. "Do you want to be my boyfriend?"

I feel my face get warm once again. "Yeah.. I do."

"Yay! You can sleep in my bed if you'd like. Or the couch. Wherever you'd feel most comfortable!"

I really want to sleep next to him, but I don't want to seem clingy so I choose the couch. He gives me some pajama bottoms and a blanket. "Sleep well!"

I nod and run down the stairs. I ask Phil's dad where the bathroom is, and change into the bottoms Phil gave me. They're so comfy and nice... I wish I had my own like this. I go back to the couch and fall asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow.

"Mum please!"
She shakes her head. "Get out of my house right now, Daniel! I refuse to let a gay live in my home!"
Tears stream endlessly down my blotchy cheeks.
"Mum I love y-"
"I don't love you! Leave!!!" Her voice is so angry. I head to my room to pack. "I said now! You don't deserve to wear the clothes I've gotten you!"
I run outside, with no intention of coming back. I run for ten minutes, just turning random corners and running through abandoned streets. I tried mum, I don't want to be like this...

My head shoots up and I feel sweat on my forehead. I feel myself choking up, and I start to cry silently. The whole house is pitch black, and there's nothing more I hate then the dark.

"Phil..." I say quietly under my breaths.

I crawl to the stairs, and slowly go up to Phil's room. I don't care if I seem clingy, I'm terrified right now.

I open his door and see a tiny light from one wall. Its a lion nightlight. That's adorable. His back is turned away from the door, covered by his sheets.

I lay down behind him, and put my arms up to his chest. I put my knees behind his, and feel him snuggle in close to me. I breathe in his scent, smelling raspberries and mint.

It sure is going to be hard not to fall in love with him...
