More Than A Friend (a Danisnotonfire fanfic)

The Accident

I check my phone and see a text from Phil. He wants to come over to talk. I think I should be slightly worried.

A/N: The rest of this chapter was writing by space_turtle7 Warning there is some swearing but not a lot.

I looked up from my phone as the doorbell rang.

Coming up, I opened my door to see my brother, Phil, standing there with guilt in his eyes.

"Hey, Phil!" I chirp, trying to ignore the apologies already written across his face. "What's up?"

He looks up at me. "Can I talk to you for a sec, Sam?" His voice is soft, careful.

I open the apartment door wider, allowing him inside. "Sure. Come on in."

He and I walk inside. Chloe went to the store, so it's just us here. As we sit on my couch, Phil folds his hands in is lap and stares intently at a water bottle on my coffee table.

"Phiiiiiiiiiil," I start, waving my hand in front of his face.

He jumps, and then looks at me. "I need to ask you something."

I relax, and sit back slightly. "Sure. What's on your mind?"

He sighs. "What's your opinion on my roommate, Dan?"

I freeze. The thoughts I've had about Dan recently come into mind. He is so nice, funny, and even his awkwardness is attractive. I feel like I've fallen head over heels for Dan, but I'd never admit it out loud.

"Ummmmmmm what why? Why do you ask?" I say quickly, trying to avoid the topic.

Phil sighs again. "You like him, don't you? In a more than a friend way."

I look down in defeat. He's my brother, no matter what I tell him, he would support me, right?

"Fine. Yes, I like Dan more then a friend. Is it that obvious?"

Phil looks sad. "To everyone but him."

I tilt my head at my big brother. "What's wrong?"

"I'm sorry, please don't take this the wrong way, but you can't date Dan." Phil looks up at me, his blue eyes blazing.

I blink, trying not to get mad. "Why? Is he taken or something?"

Phil winces. "No, but you just... can't."

I stand up. "Why the hell not, Phil?! Do you like him, too?"

Phil looks taken aback. "What?! No! Dan is just my friend. It's just that... you just... can't! You can't like Dan like that!"

I narrow my eyes. "You can't say who I can and can't date!"

He stands up, probably so he can tower over me. "I can and I will!"

"Why?! Tell me exactly why I can't like Dan like that?!"

"The Internet is too cruel!" An expression that seems to say, 'Please understand,' crosses his features, but not this time.

"Who cares about them?!" I scream. Why is he acting like this?

"I don't want him hurting you!" Phil won't back down with this. Why is he being so damn over protective?

"He would never do that!"

"I don't want him to break your heart by being in the wrong place at the wrong time!"

I sneer at my brother. "Why?! Because it would be awkward for you?!"

"Yes! I don't want my sister and my best friend hating each other!"
