That Shadow (PHAN)

Part three

Dan P.O.V

It's been three days since that day Phil had explained the night before. I was out shopping for some food for the upcoming blackout. I grabbed four boxes of cereal and a couple bags of chips, crackers, cookie, and a lot of chocolate covered pretzels. I quickly ran by the lights and grabbed a couple of battery powered lamps. I didn't need to buy any batteries, Phil said we had a couple at home.

After a little bit of a struggle to carry everything back to the apartment two blocks away. I lightly kicked the door with my shoe unable to open the door with my hands full. Phil came to the door and opened it with a big smile on his face. He said he was doing a live show while I was gone, I bet it went great. Phil took a couple a bags from me and turned into the apartment to put them away. I quickly retreated to my room and tucked two boxes of cereal under my bed so Phil wouldn't eat it all.

I went back into the kitchen and Phil's face was not its happy, perky face it was only a mere moment ago. He looked sorry for something. But what?

"Phil, what's up?" He sighed, then quickly changed his expression to look happy again. Fake happy.

"Um... You bought enough food for tomorrow's blackout right." That wasn't what he wanted to say.

I'm sorry Dan

I put on a fake smile and quickly lied
"Um... You bought enough food for the tomorrow's blackout right?" Dan raise his right eye brow. He knew I was lying, but I wouldn't tell him. Was he really not the strong, scared of nothing Dan, I thought he was? Everyone was afraid of something, but something little kids were afraid of, I wouldn't judge him or make fun of him if he was, but was he really? I guess I would know tomorrow night. I had took at the the batteries out of the controllers and hid them under the TV stand. I felt dirty as I did it, but I needed to know, I could help. The rest of the batteries went under my socks in my sock drawer.

I'm really really sorry Daniel! I really love you!
