Dan didn't see his boyfriend for the majority of his High School graduation. He did however, see him after.
"Phil!" the eighteen year old yelled as soon as the person he desired came into view. Dan ran and was immediately engulfed in a sweet hug, "I've missed you so much."
"I've missed you too, Dan," the other man murmured into the crook of Dan's neck. Neither boy wanted to let go of each other, "I'm sorry I'm late, I drove and traffic was absolute hell."
Dan smiled, and quite reluctantly let go, "It's okay. You're here now, and that's what matters. I love you, Phil."
"I missed hearing those words out loud so much," Phil kissed Dan softly and quickly before pulling back and pressing their foreheads together instead, "I love you too, Dan."
The couple were interrupted by a deep voice, "Dan, is this that boyfriend you're always talking about?" Nick.
Dan and Phil pulled apart hastily, as if being happy together was a sin. In front of a guy Dan was briefly invested in, it kind of was. Both men were suddenly flustered, "Um, uh, yeah. Nick, this is Phil and uh, Phil, this is Nick."
The two men awkwardly shook hands and Nick was the first to speak, "It's nice to meet you Phil. And uh, don't hurt him alright? He doesn't deserve that."
Phil smiled heartily, "I won't."

Shortly after the encounter with Nick, Dan and Phil went home, along with Dan's parents of course. Dan didn't want graduation gifts, but of course, Phil got him one anyways. Phil handed the other boy a small box, wrapped in a simple golden wrapping paper. Dan almost felt bad tearing it, but nonetheless he did, and he opened the box to find a silver ring.
Phil looked incredibly flustered, "I'm uh, not asking you to marry me or anything, but um, it's a promise ring. Just to show that no matter what, we have each other. It's uh, it's stupid sorry."
Dan shut Phil up by kissing him sweetly on the lips. The kiss lasted shorter than Phil wanted, but Dan had pulled away to speak, "I love it, Phil, and I love you."
"I love you too."
