phil eventually got up, dan having to move his head, pouting at the sudden loss of warmth that phil provided. "where are you going?" he asked, following the sky eyed boy into the kitchen, where he had already picked up the phone and held it to his ear. phil put a finger to his lips as he ordered a pizza, dan's frown literally turning upside down.

the pizza soon arrived and they went back into their position they were in earlier as they ate and watched anime. they both lost track of time, too busy enjoying the present, which is something neither of them did often.

they each had their own worries about the future, sometimes even the past, and that distracts them from the things happening in their life right now, but currently, it's not a problem as both boys are enjoying every second of this.

phil glanced over at the clock and all of a sudden rushed over to the window. dan watched in confusion, then phil grabbed his hand and brought him back over to it.

they looked out, the sun was setting. it was beautiful. the normal dull blue sky turning shades of pink and orange, like fireworks. the clouds looked like cotton candy and the sun was sinking lower under the horizon, it's beautiful bright rays disappearing.

"wow," dan breathed out, "it's so pretty."

"not as pretty as you," phil casually said, not taking his eyes off the sunset.

dan turned to phil, his cheeks red. phil met his gaze, his bright blue eyes staring back into dan's shiny brown ones. dan didn't know what to say, he just kept staring at phil, not wanting to mess anything up.

"what?" phil asked, "it's true." phil said, scooting closer to the starstruck boy. dan's lips were parted ever so slightly, his perfectly pink lips.

"you know," phil said, holding onto dan's hand, "i never really liked pj, i was just dating him as an excuse," he paused for a moment, taking in a deep breath, then staring back up at dan, "i love you dan. i knew you wouldn't feel the same way so i tried dating pj to try and get over you because i thought this would never happen, but i was wrong, and i'm so happy i was wrong because you make me so happy and," phil took in another deep breath, "i want you to be my boyfriend."

dan's smile was so big and tears even began to prick his eyes, "i love you too, phil," he whispered, "of course i'll be your boyfriend."

phil leaned in closer to dan, "can i kiss you?"

dan didn't even bother to answer, he closed the space between them and their lips met. fireworks seemed to go off in the sky and everything in the world seemed right.

dan pulled away for a moment, only to kiss phil again, his lips soft against his own. he loved it. he loved him. he loved phil so much.
