Haunted (Dan Howell/Phil Lester)

Chapter 12

Dan Howell was pronounced dead at 11:32 am on November 16th.

-Only a month away from being a year since he passed.-

"Dan?" I called out.

No reply, no sound at all. Just an eerie silence filled the apartment. That's when I knew something was wrong.

"Dan? Where are you?" I called out again.

No reply, just silence.

I just returned from a vacation I was on with my family. Usually Dan bolts at me when I open the door when I return. Nothing today.

Fear of what could be waiting for me over the corner.
I stood just quietly for a few minutes waiting to see if I could hear a sound.

Waiting.

Waiting.

Waiting.

I wanted to move but I couldn't because I could feel something was wrong. I was so scared.
I hadn't felt so alone in such a long time but it just came back in that one little moment.

When I finally convinced myself to move I ran around the house searching for Dan.
I found him on his bedroom floor.
He was unconscious.
Of course in a panic I called the hospital.

An ambulance arrived soon after the call.
It felt like ages but it wasn't.

Once the hospital found out what was wrong Dan was placed in a hospital room where he would live his final three weeks in.
Dan had a tumor in his bone. He didn't know.

One day he was healthy then all of a sudden BANG out of no where he wasn't anymore.

Since the tumor was found late they couldn't do much.
But they tried.

Each day I had to watch my best friend slowly rot away in a hospital bed.

I didn't know if he would survive or not.
He didn't.
