Chapter Text
The breakfast had been awkward, to say the least. But it it had taken a nice friendly turn once Dan had become more comfortable. I could see he was struggling with every word he said, every action he took and every glance he stole.
I really liked Dan. Even though he had been rather confusing for the last month, seeing this final and true version of him was very likeable. He was extremely nerdy, funny, cute, kinda dirty minded, not much of a filter on swearing and he was really interesting. The way he could explain some things was wonderful and immediately mesmerising. Not mention the cute smile he had.
As I retreated to my room a wide happy smile was etched onto my face. I was feeling a little dizzy, but I had had a rather busy night. I had been working on the files for work, as boring as they were they had to be done.
I held my head with my right arm and grimaced at the growing pain. Maybe I should go back to sleep, and not stay up too late next time.
"Oof." I let out as I threw myself on my bed, the headache was growing stronger. Should I call Dan to get me some pills? But we have only forged this friendship, I font want to bother him...
"Hello, I'm PJ. Are you new here?"
"Oh yeah! Could you help me?"
The guy smiled at me, his green
eyes looked friendly.
I clutched my head again. The pain was strong and I could barely move from the fear of it.
Louise looked at me sadly,
I didn't understand.
"I'm sorry Phil..."
Why was she sorry?
"PJ, he is gone..."
I looked at her confused.
The scene had a sad vibe to it, I couldn't explain it. It was like mixed clips were replaying themselves in my mind. I could feel the raw emotions.
Another one started playing, this time happier.
I was in the library writing notes.
"Hey Philly!"
I looked up, it was PJ.
I smiled at him.
"Hey."
He pouted and landed
on the chair next to me.
"Cheer up! We're going
to this party with Louise!"
I rolled my eyes at him.
Who was this guy? Whenever the name was said in my mind I would forget it immediately. I kept trying to reach it, but I couldn't. Was I mad?
A familiar memory started playing again.
I looked at the guy, his hair brown,
Curly almost. His eyes a sweet green.
He smiled at me. He looked familiar.
"Who are you?
The guy's eyes went sad immediately,
his entire expression full of disbelief.
" They would
dare-
"
The sentence was cut off suddenly by someone grabbing me quickly. I was still in pain and was a bit annoyed at whoever stopped the sentence. I was so close to hearing the entire thing.
"P-phil? Ar-are you o-okay?" It was Dan, he sounded panicky. I coughed, everything hurt so bad. Should Dan call an ambulance? I was sure a few headache pills could stop this.
"He-head-" I kept trying to talk but it just hurt too much.
"Head-ac-ache?" Dan tried guessing, I drunkenly nodded but regretted it immediately after. My neck hurt now.
"P-p-pill-pills..." I wasn't sure if Dan could understand anything, I hoped he could. I could barely see now. The world was now just a few blurry lines.
I fell unconscious.
