-Phil's pov-

I really needed a flat mate. Living on my own was proving not only hard, but extremely lonely. As much as I was friends with Chris and PJ, I needed someone to be there all of the time. That's why I put the posters up. I'd made a few posters including a little bit about the flat and my name and phone number of course. I said on the poster that I'd arrange an interview with someone if they called with interest. I was really hoping I would get  a nice guy. 

-Dan's pov-

I needed a flat for university. Once I had a flat and hopefully a flat mate, I would be able to do all of my work and not live in the prison-cell-of-a-university-flat. Later that day I noticed that there was poster for someone who needed a flat mate. It was the perfect opportunity and I was sure I'd heard the name "Phil Lester" from somewhere. But where? That wasn't important at the time. I quickly tapped the number into my phone to arrange an interview.

"Hello?" The voice on the other end said.

"Um.. Hi. Are you Phil Lester?"

"Yes. Can I ask who this is please?"

"Oh right. I'm Dan. Dan Howell and I noticed your poster for a flat mate. I was wondering if I could arrange an interview?"

"Yeah sure. When's best for you?"

"Any time really." I was hoping I hadn't made this difficult for him to figure out a time.

"Woudl you like to head up now?"

"Yeah shure. What's the address?"

"It's 126 York Street and flat number 14."

"I'll be right up. Thanks."

And with that I hung up.

-Phil's pov-

I was so happy that I had someone who was interested but I was kind of nervous at the same time. I was glad I had a potential flat mate but that meant I would have to go round and take the posters down. At least I only put up five.

I decided that I needed to straighten myself up. I was still in my pyjamas and I needed to hurry up so I quickly threw on a nice t shirt and jeans and drowned myslef in deodrant hoping I wouldn't smell. I heard a knock at the door, took one final look in the mirror and opened it.

"Hi, I'm Dan. Are you Phil?"

"Yeah. Come on in."
