|| Philophobia. Its name comes from two Greek roots, "philo" meaning love and "phobia" meaning fear of. The fear of love. ||
"I think i was 9 or 10. And i would watch from the stairs and-and the concept of getting close to anyone...it petrifies me."
"Why?"
"Because I never want to be vulnerable." His voice became colder. "I never want to be taken advantage of."
"Who says everyone will?" The man retaliated.
"I like my own tent. I don't want people to come inside and mess everything up."
"But what if someone climbed into your tent and cleaned it up for you?" He asked again."

Touch - Phan
"'I miss you.' 'What do you mean? I'm right here.' He shook his head. 'No, I mean I miss seeing you. I miss your smile. Seeing you smile made me so happy. I'm still so upset that I'll never see it again.' I breathed in, a bit shaky. 'You've just got to remember that if I'm with you, I'm always smiling, okay?' 'I still miss seeing you. If I could have just one opportunity to be able to see again, even just for a moment, I would spend my time just watching you smile. That's all I would want....'" After a horrible accident, Phil loses his sight and goes completely blind. Dan's help has been amazing to get him through it, but Dan can't help falling in love with his best friend - now in daily need of his care and attention. This story is about love and trust, and how two friends - much more than friends - overcome the odds of a disability, and how they realize that no matter how difficult it gets, they will always have each other. (Warnings: none! :D Fluffy, a little dash of angst, looong)Complete
