Dan ran, his heart pounding in his chest wildly in fear; he couldn't lose Phil. He said he'd be there to keep the monochromians away, but he wasn't, and he didn't listen.

So he ran. He ran until his feet hurt and his legs were close to giving away. He ran as fast as he could. He ran.

He could see them just up ahead, and a smile graced his lips, despite the fear that was within him.

"Phil!!" He screamed at the top of his lungs, gaining the other monochromians' attention as well as his boyfriend's.

"Dan, please go back," Phil begged, tears welling up in his eyes.

"Dan Howell?" One monochromian inquired carefully, stopping. Dan recognized his voice.

"Pewds?" Dan questioned back with a small hint of relief and surprise, as well as sadness in his voice.

"Yes, it's me," Felix replied, biting his lip. Dan's nickname for the blonde just so happened to be Pewds.

Thomas's jaw dropped at the sound of Dan's voice, before he sighed, agitated, and Felix began to speak again. "Dan, why did you leave without saying goodbye? We were best friends-"

"Pewds, I'm so sorry," Dan sighed, hugging himself. "I didn't say goodbye because I knew what it would do to you. But I couldn't stay at Planet White anymore. I wasn't happy. I was tired of seeing my world as I always did. Tired of not knowing the feeling of being loved, or knowing what love was like. I didn't think you'd understand, so I left you the note as my goodbye. I'm so sorry that I hurt you. I didn't think, I just left. But it was because I wanted love."

"Well, let me ask you one thing, Dan. Did you acquire what you left for? Did you find your love?"

"I did," Dan replied softly, lifting his head to look into Phil's eyes. "And you're holding him in your hands right now."

Tears fell down Phil's cheeks and he let his fringe fall in his face to hide them.

Felix looked down at the ground and let go of Phil, before walking over to Dan.

"I hate you so fucking much," Felix whispered as he hugged Dan tightly.

"I know," Dan smiled small, hugging back. "I really am so sorry, Pewds."

"Fuck you, bro," Felix chuckled, pulling away. "But I guess I forgive you."

Dan smiled and turned to Thomas, one of his father's friends (even though Thomas was a bit of a dick) and his eyes widened, before he started to speak quickly.

"Please don't take my love away, Tom, please," Dan pleaded, biting his lip. "I can't lose him."

"It's not my choice, Howell," Thomas said sternly, glaring.

"But-" Dan stopped talking and stepped closer as Thomas began to push Phil in the vehicle.

"Dan, you can't help Phil and you can't go, they'll kill you!" Felix told him, grabbing Dan's arm. Dan looked back at his friend before pulling away and running to Phil.

Dan grabbed Phil's hand, pulled him as close as possible with Thomas still holding onto him, gave him the most passionate kiss he could give him, and whispered, "I love you. Don't forget about me," before Thomas yanked Phil in the vehicle, started it, and drove off, leaving Felix behind, and disappearing into the stars.

Dan turned to Felix. "What now, Pewds?"

And Felix didn't know what to say.
