"Dan?" Phil whispered. Dan turned over to face him.

"Yeah?"

"You know how you said 'you'll ditch me, just like always'?"

Dan nodded.

"What do you mean, like always?"

Dan sighed. "When I had a boyfriend, he ditched me. End of story. It's nothing important."

Phil pulled the duvet up to his chin. "You sure?"

"Yeah."

"Ok."

They lay still, wrapped in one another's arms for a while.

"Dan?"

"What?"

"What did PJ mean when he said 'you regretted it'?"

"I think he heard me crying that night..."

"You cried?"

Dan nodded, red creeping up his face.

"Same."

"I'll never do that again, promise." Dan said.

"Good. Because my heart's cracked enough as it is," Phil replied with a small smile.

"Love you, Phil."

"Love you too."
