    Summary

    It was cold, and Dan was bored. The journal rested easily on his palms; he hadn't opened it since Phil went away.

    He doesn't have the heart to, but the only thing he fears is losing the memories of the love they once shared before losing everything.

    In which, Dan kept a journal that kept every single memory and every single moment that led to their messy breakup, rereading it only to reunite with Phil through the pages again, Phil doesn't bother reaching back.

    Summary

    “Hey, Martyn here… Phil really liked this pretty girl back at his school and um the ‘girl’ was actually a guy— his name is Daniel Howell… or Dan as Phil would say and they've been really getting along— he uh— he says some things about letters and how the other guy doesn't really like to talk bullshit… it seems to have helped Phil a lot when he was you know…

    But now he ran like crazy out of the house and uh— tripped almost actually…Um… He was moving with urgency like super speed just threw on a fucking scarf and all— might have something to do with Dan the pretty guy… but uhm— I just wanted you to check on Phil yeah?

    And call back… I hope I do hear something’

    The line goes dead.

    Summary

    “Well, but you're brave,” Phil says. Dan smiles slightly and leans his head on Phil’s shoulder again. “Braver than I am.”
    “I’m scared of the dark,” Dan tells him. “Not brave.”
    “I’m scared of putting new shoes on top of tables. Even more not brave.”

    Summary

    October, 2009: Dan is meeting Phil for the first time tomorrow. He just has to get through this night.

    ///

    “The precious desire burning deep in Dan's gut is intoxicating and he should be so much more scared than he is. He’s still plenty terrified, but maybe just this once he can allow his heart to want this. He’ll pick up the shattered pieces later.”

    ///

    formidable: (adj.) causing you to have fear or respect for something or someone because that thing or person is large, powerful, or difficult
