A fic compiled of mostly texts between Dan and Phil during Dan’s trip to the Bahamas. Inspired by this post from @danielbear
Dan arrived at the airport, waiting for his flight to the Bahamas to board.
Dan: i cant believe im doing this
Phil: im so happy u will be here for my fam holiday :)
Dan: my flight is about to board
Dan: jfc did u rly just send me the heart emoji how cliche

Dan: oh should i spam you like you did with the heart emoji
Dan: border agent is so chill omg
Dan: he also insulted my pale skin
Dan: i have time before my flight apparently
Dan: go to the beach i guess
Phil: did the border agent pressure u into getting a tan?
Dan: my taxi driver just got out of the car and got in a fight with someone

Dan: i want to u have no idea
Phil: i know bear. when does ur flight board?

Dan: one of the engines lost power apparently
Dan’s phone started ringing not two seconds after sending that emoji.
“Hi.” he answered the phone.
“Are you okay?” Phil asked immediately.
“Not really.” Dan told him. “This is just annoying and stupid and I just want to be back in Florida now.”
“What are you going to do? Is there another flight?” Phil asked.
“I don’t know. I think I might have to stay the night here.” Dan said and he could sense Phil’s frown through the phone.
Suddenly, Dan heard an announcement throughout the airport that said the engine was up and running and the flight to Orlando was back on and boarding in 5 minutes.
“Wait, they just said the flight to Orlando is back on.” Dan said into the phone.
“How can it be back on if the engine stopped working?” Phil asked.
“They said it’s up and running. Should I get on it?” Dan asked.
“Do you really want to get on a plane that has engine issues?” Phil questioned.
“I don’t know, I just want all this over with now.” Dan spoke quietly.
“Okay, I mean, I guess they wouldn’t let the flight happen if it wasn’t safe. So, get on it that way you don’t have to spend the night there.” Phil told him.
“Well, they said it’s boarding in 5 minutes and that was at least 2 minutes ago.” Dan spoke frantically.
“Okay, hurry and text me when you get on the plane.” Phil said. “Be safe, bear.”
“Okay.” Dan said. “I love you.”
“I love you, too.” Phil said.
Dan hung up the phone and actually ran through the airport to catch the flight.
Dan: i just ran through the airport like a newborn giraffe that doesnt know how to use its limbs
Phil: thats quite the image
Phil: good ur laughing :)
Dan: just bc i wrote lol doesnt mean im laughing
Phil: just try to relax and have a safe flight bear
Dan: ive got my death playlist ready :)
An hour later, the flight landed and Dan headed into the Orlando airport.
He walked in and spotted Phil there waiting for him.
For the first time all day, he smiled.
