Dan died, and it wasn't much of a surprise to everyone but Phil, in the end. Phil didn't know, and the only question was how? How could he have not known his best friend was dead?
***********
okok hello !! This is our first time writing together, so we hope you like it !! We tried our best to make everything (Spelling, grammar) correct, so sorry if it isn't.
It is mostly in the third person, in small paragraphs between each of us (Ariel and Anissa.) So, the dashes mean it switches. Normally it starts with Ariel, so yeah, Enjoy!
Dan is that kid. The popular boy that every girl swoons over, that everyone wants to be friends with, the boy that's a complete jerk to anyone lower on the totem pole. But deep down, he's just trying to hide and ignore his own secret- that he's gay.
Phil is Dan's usual target. Openly gay, awkward, and nerdy, he seems to be easily bullied. He's always too afraid to say anything and would rather stay in the background and get through high school and go to university.
When Dan's grades slip 🔚 he needs to bring them up or else repeat his senior year, Phil is assigned to tutor Dan. It seems to be a terrible coincidence that the two are brought together, but it's so much more.
Thank you @tissuesfortheissues for this amazing cover
