Phil's POV: 

I saw that Dan wasn't all that comfortable with Korbin, he kept glancing at me every few seconds. I mean I thought he wasn't enjoying the dance at all how he was acting but I guess I read him wrong. We shared little smiles throughout the dance and it made my heart do the flippy over thing, I felt butterflies flood my stomach. I do like Dan... a lot... maybe more than a friend.
We had nearly kissed. Hadn't we? of course we had. Or maybe I was making that up? My head was everywhere. I was thinking about the near kiss a lot whilst I watched Dan dance with Korbin, I hated that they were in the same space together let alone that he was touching him! I tried not to let it show, smiling whenever Dan saw me or waving. But then, then, they kissed. They actually kissed! I thought Dan was beginning to like me, that maybe we could get into a relationship. It was a little bit optimistic but I just thought that maybe I had some luck in my life... but then it was snatched away from me. That hope was smashed by the attaching of their lips together. 
I had to leave then and there, I couldn't just stay and watch. It felt wrong, it all felt wrong. I hated Korbin. He had taken my self confidence away, he had taken my life away and now he was taking Dan. 

I found myself rushing out the exit and down a ramp. It was in front of a large window that overlooked a swimming pool, I found myself watching how the light shined out and glinted off the water that hadn't yet been emptied. Although I probably could've filled the pool up again either way due to the amount of tears that were coming down my face. 

  "Phil?" I heard a voice call out, Dan's voice. I turned around and tried to wipe away my tears, but it wasn't much use because they just kept coming. Dan looked worried. "Phil, what's wrong?" I shook my head and refused to speak. I knew that if I did speak I would just break down even more. He came a closer to me and grabbed hold of my hands, they felt warm but I shook them away because I knew they'd been on him. "Is it Korbin?" 
That name sent shivers down my spine, I was sure my face went pale and I felt sick. 
"It is... what about Korbin?" Dan asked again, his voice gentle but it didn't stop me from feeling the same sickness wash over me. I shook slightly. 
"I... I" I stumbled over my words. Dan furrowed his eyebrows at me in questioning but I didn't attempt to speak again. 
"Please tell me" Dan begged encouragingly, I gulped. 
"You remember the ex I told you about?" I started, Dan nodded. 
"Yeah, the one who-" He stopped short and his eyes widened "Korbin!?" He almost yelled "Korbin!?" He put his hand in his hair and caused his fringe to fall messily into his face. 
"Dan..." I said slowly "you didn't know... just, be careful if you and him you know" I trailed off. 
"Date!?" He laughed "I don't even like him!" 
"but- but you kissed him?" I asked confused. I had seen them kiss, with my own eyes. 
"He kissed me" Dan emphasised "So I told him to fuck off and then saw you were gone, I was so worried about you!" 
"you were?" I asked, perking up a little.
"Obviously" He rolled him eyes "you're a good friend of mine... maybe even a best friend?" He asked for conformation and, even if it meant I'm technically being friend zoned here, I didn't mind at all. I had never had a best friend. 
"Best friend" I nodded and bit my lip. 
"What's wrong?" Dan asked me 
"I just" I sighed "I've never had a best friend before." 

Dans POV: 

I could relate to Phil, sure I had had friends and girlfriends but never a best friend. Never a friend I could be myself around 100%. I didn't even know how best friends acted together but I was sure it was how me and Phil were. 
"Well I feel special" I winked at him which made him smile widely, I pulled him into a hug "I'll fight Korbin if you want" I rubbed his back comfortingly. Phil giggled, I felt his breath beat against my ear in short bursts. I pulled away but still gripped Phil's shoulders. 
"what?" I questioned and raised an eyebrow at him. He blushed and chuckled.
"nothing" He bit his lip, I raised my eyebrow even higher "okay. okay. I was just imagining you in a fight" He giggled a little more and his tongue poked out in that adorable way of his. 
"Oi! I am very strong I'll have you know" I said, releasing one hand off Phil and flexing my non existent muscle. 
"Of course" he rolled his eyes at me before laughing again. I released Phil completely and we both turned around and stared through the window and into a room that contained a swimming pool. 

"fancy a swim?" I questioned jokingly. I imagined us swimming through the water like Haru and Makoto from my favourite anime. Come to think of it Phil does look like Haru, quiet a lot actually, I wouldn't object if he wanted to break in there and have a swim. Hell I'd be all for it. Its every anime fanboys dream to find an anime character in real life! It's incredibly hard to find a guy that has the same traits as your favourite anime character... but I'm getting off track. 
"I wish I could just dive in there!" Phil replied. 
"Be a mermaid Philly!" I outburst and pointed to the water.
"I will be the most beautiful mermaid ever" Phil replied and flicked his hair back like a diva.
"Ariel will be jealous" I replied with a laugh. 
"Probably send her dad after me or something" 
"If she hasn't given her voice to another sea devil that is" I replied with a chuckle. 

We stayed out there for most of the night and got his mum to pick us up after we had run out of Disney puns to say. It was the most fun I had had all night, or ever in high school really. Everyone thinks of proms as being crowned prom king or dancing with friends or slow romantic dances with your partner but standing outside of prom with your possible best friend is the greatest thing ever. You don't need a crown to have an awesome time at prom, you just need a Phil Lester.  

AN:
Hey guys!! 
I'm in a really good mood today, I hung out with my crush (even though he likes someone else oops) but it was good. We had a lot of banter and he accepts my love of Dan and Phil which is great. 
I'm also seeing a doctor soon to hopefully get some anxiety pills which will help me out a lot so alls good.
How are you lot doing? I hope you're good ^-^
