Chapter 11
Dan groaned as the sunlight hit his face, he opened his eyes wondering why his head hurt so much. He had blurred memories from last night, all he remembered was going to a bar with Phil after the meeting with the surrogate mother and then it's all blank. Dan tried sitting up but two arms were holding him down, he looked over seeing Phil still asleep with his arms around Dan's waist. He carefully grabbed his phone from the side table seeing that it's already noon. He noticed something else, a piece of paper on the ground that appeared to the be a marriage certificate.
"P-phil, get up.." Dan whispered shaking Phil who groaned. He opened his eyes and sat up rubbing his eyes.
"What's the matter? Why are you up so early?" He asked rubbing his head, like Dan he also felt his head pounding.
"It's noon." Dan said reaching down to pick up the paper. "Um Phil, what's this?"
Phil looked up at Dan confused taking the paper from him. His eyes opened wide when he realized what it actually was. "Did we- did we drunk marry?" He quickly sat up noticing two wedding bands on the bedside table.
"I honestly don't remember anything from last night." Dan said looking at Phil confused.
"I am so so sorry Dan." Phil apologized quickly "Its my fault I'm the one who suggested going to the bar and talked you into it when you said Lexie is home and I said Victoria would-"
"Phil, you don't have to apologize" Dan said cutting Phil off. "I'm every bit responsible as you are."
"I know that but we've been together what? Seven months almost? And yeah we talked about marrying one day but never in details or when we would marry." Phil continued covering his face with his hands. "And when we did marry I wanted it to be special and romantic but now I ruined it because I'm so fucking stupid and irresponsible."
"Hey hey don't say that, look don't blame yourself it's okay Phil."
"But you probably didn't even want this.." Phil muttered looking down.
Dan sighed then playfully tackled Phil back onto the bed sitting on him with his knees on both sides. "Can you stop talking for just one minute and hear me out?"
Phil tried sitting up but was just pushed back down again by Dan. "Alright..." He groaned.
"I get it, we were drunk and people do stupid things they regret when they're drunk but I don't regret this." Dan said taking Phil's hands in his and intertwining their fingers. "Do you regret it?"
"It's not that I regret it, I wanted to marry you more than anything but I wanted it to be special.."
"It's what we both wanted, whatever happened, happened. I promise I'm really happy even though I don't remember anything from last night." Dan smiled. He leaned down pressing his lips on Phil's. He let go of Phil's hands and placed them on his cheeks.
"I love you." Phil mumbled against Dan's lips before kissing him back. Dan let out a small noise when Phil pulled away and sat up but kept Dan on his lap wrapping his arms around his waist. "I might not remember last night, but by the looks of these seems like we had a fun night." Phil smirked running his hands down over the lovebites on Dan's neck, down his chest, stomach and on his hips.
"You twat, how am going to hide these." Dan laughed playfully slapping Phil's hand away and gesturing to the ones on his neck. Phil pouted pretending to be hurt but failing to keep a serious face. "I can't believe I used to think you were scary and intimidating when I first met you."
"Really? So what am I to you now?" Phil asked curiously, raising his eyebrow.
"You're like a cute little kitten." Dan giggled wrapping his arms around Phil's neck.
"Hey, I'm really manly okay." Phil laughed sliding his hands farther down Dan's back placing them on his bum.
"You can put on a scary guy act and you run a prostitution business, but in reality you're just a gentle kitten." Dan said pecking his lip.
Phil smiled his tongue sticking out slightly, he leaned in to kiss Dan once more but was interrupted by a small knock on the door.
"Daddy!!" A little voice called out knocking on the door again. Dan got up grabbed his clothes from the ground and tossing Phil his clothes. He was so glad that they taught Lexie to knock if the door is locked and not to just walk in like that. Dan looked back making sure that Phil was decent and then proceeded towards the door.
"Hey baby girl." Dan smiled opening the door picking her up. He walked back to bed and sat down next to Phil.
"I hope you were good for your Auntie Victoria." Phil said tickling her tummy.
Lexie giggled moving Phil's hands away and nodded. "Missed you!!"
"We missed you too sweetie, I promise we won't pull something like that again." Dan said kissing her cheek.
"Hey Dan, don't you have a shoot for a movie or something today?" Phil reminded him as he checked the date on his phone. Having connections he was able to get Dan a bunch of auditions remembering how he had told him that he always wanted to be an actor since he was young. Dan got offers from a bunch of them and was now filming his first ever movie, he constantly said that he would never have gotten it if it wasn't for Phil but Phil said that he got it because he has talent.
"Yeah in a couple of hours, its just a small shoot today." Dan said putting Lexie back down.
Phil nodded and went back to looking through his phone to check if Valerie had texted or called when something odd caught his eye. "That's odd, it says I was on call with my dad for almost fifteen minutes last night.."
"And I'm assuming you have no idea?" Dan asked.
Phil shook his head. "No.. Oh well its probably nothing."
After Dan had gone to his shoot taking Lexie with him, Phil thought he could pass his time by going through paperwork in his office making sure everything is in order. He looked down at his phone seeing his father was calling again, not remembering anything from last night he just didn't want to face his father after whatever so he declined his call and went back to work. By the time Dan had come home Phil was already done with his work.
"Where's Lexie?" Phil asked as Dan walked into his office.
"In her room, she fell asleep on the way back." Dan smiled sitting on the edge of Phil's desk. Phil smiled back getting up and wrapping his arms around Dan pulling him into a hug and kissing his cheek softly.
"You're really affectionate today" Dan said melting into the hug.
Phil opened his mouth to say something but stopped upon hearing Victoria outside his office talking to someone sounding nervous.
"Phil is really busy right now Mr. Lester don't think right now is a good time." He heard her say, he knew she was talking to his father. Phil felt himself freeze, quickly snapping out of it he pulled away from Dan but keeping a hold onto his hand.
His father walked in ignoring Victoria glaring at the two. "Now I seem to understand why you're always ignoring my work calls or in a rush to hang up." He says looking at Phil.
Dan looked at Phil's father nervously, getting off of the table. Phil kept a protective hold on Dan's hand moving him back standing in front of him.
"You've keeping this from me for many months now, I must hand it to you I wasn't suspecting this." John Lester looked back at Dan keeping a stern look on his face. "This must be Daniel, the one I heard you with over the phone yesterday and the one you said you had fired. I recognize him from pictures."
"Dan's my husband." Phil answered plainly.
"You know what the rules are Philip, you're to marry a woman not a man. Do you care so little of this boy putting him in danger like this."
"I don't care for your rules father." Phil shot back bitterly, "and don't you dare threaten my husband."
"You seem to be forgetting what I'm capable of."
"No, I haven't forgotten about what a coward you actually are that your only way of handling things is by killing. When things don't go your way you just kill whoever is in your way, just like how you killed my mother." Phil said clenching his fist.
Dan felt Phil starting to shake with anger, he placed his hand on Phil's arm squeezing his gently in attempt to calm him down.
"Starting now, this boy will go back to work as a prostitute, its all he's good for." His father ordered. "If he doesn't then you can say goodbye to him."
Not thinking twice or hesitating, Phil moved Dan away bringing his fist up hitting his father as hard as he could making him fall back crashing into the shelves. "You do not threaten my family, the only reason you were able to get away with ruining my life all these years was because I let you. I am not letting you ruin it any more." Phil grabbed his father by his collar pushing him back with full force. Victoria and one of Phil's bodyguards came running in upon hearing the noise thinking his father had hurt him surprised that the circumstances were the other way around.
"Dave, please escort my father out." Phil said calmly. Dave nodded grabbing John by his arm pulling him away.
"Phil, are you okay?" Victoria asked worried.
"I'm fine." Phil assured her walking back to Dan who threw himself into his arms sighing in relief. "I won't let anything happen to you, I promise."
