Fluff. Just fluff and cuddles.
--------------------------------
When they first started dating they hadn't done much snuggling or cuddling, they mainly held hands or kissed the others forehead, cheek, or nose, in a loving gesture. The first few times they had sex they slept peacefully on their own sides of the bed with no contact between them. Dan thinks it was Phil's way of letting Dan feel at ease, let him transition into this new development in their relationship. He was thankful for it, that is, until he was transitioned into it. He didn't know how to initiate things and never had to, Phil had always been the one to start things, but Phil was oblivious to the fact that Dan was completely comfortable with him now. It had taken Dan a week to talk himself into it and had almost backed out again but; thankfully he put his big boy pants on and did it because who knows where they would be if he hadn't. Phil was sitting on the couch watching a movie and when Dan had walked in he had expected him to sit next to him like always so when Dan stood infront of the couch nervously for awhile he stared at him in concern. That was what gave Dan the confidence to take Phil's hand and lift his arm to tuck himself comfortably into his side while resting his head on Phil's shoulder, still holding his hand tightly as his stomach swam with nerves.
They drowned when Phil gave him the happiest grin and kissed him gently. Phil never held back from holding Dan after that. After that Dan can confidently say that if there is one thing he loves most in the world, it is snuggling Phil.
He has never been so certain of that fact until now. Phil lays on the couch his head on one arm rest and feet on the other while Dan lays next to him, well it started that way. Dan lays on his chest now, his head under Phil's chin and arms hugging around his chest while their feet are entangled together. One of Phil's hand is absentmindedly running through the curls in Dan's hair while the other is over his waist, fingers drawing random shapes on Dan's side. They both have their eyes closed as they stay there, not napping exactly but not doing anything else besides cuddling. Dan smiles as Phil noses through his hair before kissing his head. He brings one hand up next to his face and holds the soft fabric of Phil's hoodie in his hands as he snuggles farther in Phil's embrace, giving his chest a light peck in doing so. He listens to Phil's heart beat and the rise and fall of his chest, burrying his head into Phil's neck and giving another peck to the skin there and splaying his fingers out, releasing his hoodie, and letting his hand simply lay gently on Phil's chest. Phil's arm tightens around Dan's waist and he inhales his scent, fingers still softly running through the soft hair and massaging his scalp.
"I love you." Phil whispers in his ear.
It isn't the first time Phil has said this to him and it wont be the last but the moment itself is what makes Dan's heartbeat increase and the very being of his soul shines with happiness.
"I can feel your heartbeat." He adds, kissing his head again. "It's racing."
"It's because I love hearing you tell me that."
"I love you." Dan's heart rate does indeed speed up again and Dan can just sense Phil grinning.
"I love you too." Phil's heart rate also goes up a bit because Dan sounds so adorable, his voice sleepy and happy, and his smile presses against his neck and Phil finds himself asking him to say it agian.
"I love you."
They sigh in a calm happiness and Dan drifts into sleep but Phil stays awake and simply relishes in this feeling; the feeling of knowing that he is holding the man he loves and that man loves him just as much and his holding him back in his sleep.

My dog is cuddling me and I can't get up and make her sad so I decided to write a fluffy snuggle fic.
