    Summary

    Phil sighs, hands rubbing at his eyes under the glasses again, and they move up in the process, and Phil, tiredly, takes them off, sets them down on the nightstand next to their bed, and Dan, without thinking, says, “no, keep the glasses on.”

    Blinking at him with a confused expression, Phil freezes mid-movement.

    “My glasses?” he asks.

    Dan nods, gaze heated.

    Dan is on tour, and stressed, and missing Phil.

    Summary

    Some things are worth whatever price you have to pay afterwards, whatever bridges you end up burning. This is one of them.

    Phil is one of them.

    Summary

    He thinks, sometimes, in the afterglow of sex and high hormones, that he wouldn't mind dating Phil. Anyone would be lucky to date him – he knows that for a fact. Phil would be the most caring and attentive partner in the world. He'd make you soup when you were sick even though he hates soup. He'd buy you chocolates just because he felt you were a bit sad, even though you're a bit sad a lot. And he'd take whatever you had to give, and he wouldn't ask for any more than you offered even though he deserved the sun, the moon, and all of the universe's creations.

    So that's why he also knows he can't date Phil. And that, really, he should start putting some distance between them. Phil would see soon that Dan's bad days outnumber his good, and although he has so far managed to keep Phil sheltered away from the worst of it, nobody could love him at his most self-destructive. He'll lose it eventually, and he'll shout and he'll swear and he'll push, and Phil doesn't deserve any of that.

    So, yes, Dan should start putting some distance between them.

    All the ways Dan and Phil have defined their relationship over the years in an attempt to avoid the word 'boyfriends'.
