The stress. The pain. The butterflies in his stomach. The year was 2022 and Daniel Howell felt awful. He felt so shacky. He was scared and didn't know what to do. Something had come to his attention several days ago. He had logged out of his twitter for years. He logged back into it to find some fans. Fans who still want to know if Phan was real or not. He felt like they deserve at least a story about Daniel's relationship with Phil. He needed to do it soon, and not tell anyone. He had to keep it a secret about what he was about to do.
The next day after procrastinating, Dan went to a local store to get some supplies he needed. A notebook, a pen, and a cute jumper. When he got home, he immediately started writing. He wrote till his wrists hurt so much that he couldn't write anymore. He was so focused and only stopped to get breakfast, lunch, and dinner. This is the only thing he knew for sure he should do. He didn't need to procrastinate, he knew what he was doing, was right. After several long days of writing in the notebook, he was finished. He wrote down everything he wanted to say. He did it. He was ready. He then made a trail. He put his pen in front of the door. He put a sticky note next to it, with an arrow pointing towards the cute jumper Dan got at the store. Then there was a mini letter. Next to the letter was an arrow, pointing towards the notebook. Then another arrow pointing to the tree. This wasn't just any tree. It's called the Hanging Tree. Multiple successful suisides have taken place at this very tree. People would hang themselves.
"It's now time," Dan said to himself.
Right before he was about to hang himself, he called his old mate, Phil. Phil is married to a wonderful woman and has 3 children together. Dan on the other hand lives in a little house in the middle of no where by himself. When he called Phil, all he said
was," come.. to my house."
Phil was concerned but didn't say no. He quickly got in his car and drove to Dan's house. When he arrived, he opened the door to find a trail. A pen, then the cutest jumper he had ever seen. It had a lion on the front, and the lions fur, had real fur in the jumper! Phil thought it was so cute. He then saw the notebook.. it said to read a little later. Then he saw Dan, trying to hang himself. Phil immediately started running towards Dan, trying to stop him. He was trying to save Dan. He then ran back into the house, going through all the drawers that Dan might have placed a pair of sissors. After several seconds, Phil found a pair and ran to Dan. He had never ran faster. He then cut the rope so it would be impossible for Dan to hang himself. Dan then fell to his knees, balling his eyes out. In the several years of living together, this is the first time Dan had cried in front of Phil. Phil was right next to him hugging him. Saying how much he cares about him and for him to never do it again. But Dan couldn't hear anything. All he could hear is the sound of his crying and the ringing in his ears. He had to do something. Phil then saw there was a scar on his neck. Phil freaked out them called an ambulance. When they got there, Phil just stood there.. still in shock about what just happened and what almost happened. Dan and the ambulance left to go to the hospital. Phil was crying. After a while, he picked himself up. He grabbed the notebook and started reading. It was too much for Phil to handel. It was heartbreaking.
