Chapter 2
*Dan's POV*
I was quite occupied for a couple of days with my grandmother's funeral, I didn't get to visit Phil. But now that I'm done with everything I can finally see him again. "Hey Dan" he smiled as I entered his room "Hey Phil, how are you?" I asked "I'm alright, Im getting discharged today" he said "That's good to hear, I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to visit you, I was occupied with my grandma's funeral" I said softly, he grabbed my hand and squeezed it gently "Don't worry about it, that was your first priority, I'm just glad you're doing okay" he smiled. I looked at him, something about him made me feel okay and calm, I started thinking about what my grandma said, but how could I think of him like that, I just met him a couple of days ago, I mean I always believed in love at first sight, but I always thought that it would be a mutual thing not just one sided, I could not have feelings for some one I just met, could I? "What's on your mind?" He asked and I instantly snapped out of it "Oh um sorry, I was just thinking about how great it is that you considered my offer" I said quickly smiling at him "Well I'm allowed to leave any time today" he said "Okay, then let's go home" I smiled. I helped Phil gather what he needed like his oxygen tank that he would need for emergencies "Um Dan, can you stop at my old apartment? I need to get my mail and pay last months rent before I move in with you" he said "So how do you manage alone? Isn't it difficult?" I asked getting into my car "Yeah it is, I need to find a job soon if I want to pay for my treatments,my doctor is already refusing treatments" he sighed "Wait, who is your doctor? What kind of doctor does that?" I asked concerned "He's an asshole, he never smiles and is bossy" Phil laughed silently. "You know I could help pay for your treatments, money isn't a problem for me" I offered and he shook his head "Thanks but you're already letting me live with you,I couldn't ask for more" he said quietly. We reached his apartment, I went inside with him, he unlocked his mailbox and pulled out a few letters and sighed "What are those? I asked " Nothing " he said quickly, I took them from him "These are medical bills Phil, they're a lot how are you going to pay for them?" I read through them "I told you Dan, I'll manage" he said leading me to his apartment"Please let me help you, I want to help, your treatments are important " I insisted. He stayed quiet and unlocked his front door, the apartment was small but the perfect size for one person, the furniture seemed a little old "So what do we need to take with us?" I asked him "Just my bag, my clothes are already packed. The furniture belongs here" Phil said going into the bedroom "How many bags do you have?" I asked "Just one" he said dragging a bag outside with him, I quickly took it from him so he doesn't get tired "Thanks" he smiled, we were about to leave but a man was standing at the doorway "What brings you back Lester?" He asked coldly, the man was wearing loose clothes and honestly he looked like a drug addict, and I bet he was. "I was coming down to your office, I have my rent and I need to inform you that I won't be living here anymore" Phil said calmly handing him an envelope, he took the envelope from him and started counting the bills "That's this months rent, where's the rest of the money you owe me?" He asked "What!? I don't owe you anything else!" Phil said confused "Yes you do" the guy said in a harsh tone. I looked at Phil, I could tell he was telling the truth, he looked confused he wouldn't lie "He said he doesn't owe you anything" I said in a defensive tone "And who do you think you are?" The guy asked glaring at me, Phil looked at me, he looked scared of this guy so I grabbed Phil's hand and intertwined our fingers so he knew I won't let anything happen to him. "I get it, you're his boyfriend" he smirked "So what if I was? That's none of your business. But if you bother him then watch out" I said coldly taking the envelope back from him "I'm not someone you should be threatening, so think twice before getting defensive over him" he warned me. Phil looked really scared now "Don't fucking take my boyfriends money then! He doesn't owe you anything but rent he's ill!" I yelled trying to shut him up. "Dan, its okay" Phil whispered pulling me back "No,he's trying to rob you, I'm not okay with that Phil" I said "You don't get it Dan, i-if I don't pay him then he will come after me and kill me" he whispered, his eyes were full of fear, he was threatening Phil, what person in the right mind would do that? I held Phil's hand tighter "Don't you dare threaten my boyfriend" I said coldly as Phil handed him the money again "This is all I owe you" he said trying not to sound scared. The guy took the money from Phil and looked at me "I don't care if he's ill, I want my money no matter what" he smirked he then took Phil's oxygen tube and dropped it to the ground,Phil just sighed and picked it up, but I wasn't about to let him get away with that "Did you just touch my boyfriend?" I said in a harsh tone and pushed him with full force. Before I knew it he came at me and punched me in my face "DAN" Phil shouted worried, I was about to hit back but Phil held me back "Please don't, he's not worth it" he whispered he looked frightened. "Try anything and I'll see you in court" I said plainly to the guy taking Phil's bag and grabbing his hand heading out the apartment. "I'm sorry Dan" Phil whispered "Why are you sorry?" I asked confused "He hit you because you stood up for me" I said sadly "He's just an asshole Phil, don't worry I'm okay" I smile.
*Phil's POV*
Dan was such an amazing person, he stood up for me, he took a punch for me, he's doing so much for me, a person he met a few days ago. One thing wouldn't leave my mind, how he called me his boyfriend a few times, he probably didn't mean it but I hoped it meant something. "So, what was with the boyfriend thing?" I asked nervously. "Oh sorry about that, I was just trying to get him to shut up" he laughed awkwardly. "Oh.." I was kind of hurt, I knew it meant nothing but I felt hurt "What's wrong?" He asked looking at me "Nothing" I shook my head "It must be something Phil, please tell me" he really had no idea "Well I was thinking about how no one would ever love me back" I said trying to send a hint "Come on I'm sure that's not true" he smiled "Well I know for sure now that it's true" I said softly looking outside the window. Dan held my hand, I looked down at it, it made me really sad because I knew it didn't mean anything "You're a great person Phil, anyone would love you back" he smiled. He honestly had no idea "It doesn't matter Dan, the one person who I wished would love me back doesn't" I said quietly so only I could hear myself "What's that?" Dan asked "Nothing sorry" I said quickly. Dan parked his car in a driveway, he got outside and took my bag out of the trunk, I took a look at his house, it was massive it was basically a mansion "You live here?" I asked and Dan nodded awkwardly "Come let's go inside" he said dragging me indoors. I looked around, his house was beautiful "I'll show you your room later, we should take it easy. Want to play on my Xbox?"he asked " Sure, but I always win I used to play with my brother a lot" I told him "Good because I'm not going easy on you" he laughed warning me. We played for about an hour, I caught Dan catching glimpses of me, I smiled to myself slightly. Without saying a word he paused the game "what's wrong?" I asked facing him, he didn't say a word he just stared at me and leaned in I knew what was coming next I didn't hesitate I kissed him, it was a sweet and soft kiss, I felt something instantly. We pulled away and looked at each other "Woah, did you feel what I feel?" Dan asked whispering, his face still close to mine, I nodded, I felt something amazing something I never felt before in my life. Dan bit his lip and smiled at he put his hand on my shoulder and gently laid me down on the couch and kissed me, this time it was more passionate and lasted longer, our lips didn't separate for only more than half a second when we pulled away for air. We laid their on his couch making out for I don't know how long, all I know is that it felt right.
