1st

"shit."

"dan, please don't curse."

dan lifted his head to meet his mothers squinty eyes.

"sorry mum, the box just landed on my toe"

dan was packing all his things to move to his new apartment in london. it actually wasn't his apartment, it was their apartment. dan actually didn't know who the other half was in 'their' yet though.

(5 weeks earlier)

dan squinted his eyes, filling out the online sheet to find out his roommate match.

hair color- brown
eye color- brown

dan smiled, he ought to have the most boring features.

birthday- june 11, 1991
age- 24
interest- making videos, tumblr, anime, and video games.

dan clicked the "done" button at the bottom of the page and furrowed his eyebrows, that was all the questions?

another page popped up, revealing a picture of a boy with snow-like skin and raven hair. he had blue eyes, with a dorky smile plastered on his face and his left hand raised as if to say "hello!"

a text beneath that said, "meet your new roommate, philip lester!"

hair color: black
eye color- ???
birthday- january 30, 1987
age- 28
interest- tumblr, big sweaters, coffee, video games, anime, and you tuber

dan smiled, it seemed they both enjoyed basically the same things. but, why had this "philip lester" left his eye color blank?

(present)

dan breathed heavily, what if his new roommate was some insane person? what if those "interests" were all false, and he really wanted to murder dan?

"dan, hurry. the truck will be here soon."

"mhm" dan replied as he put yet another action figure in a box.

"dan"

"what mother" dan was getting frustrated.

"i don't think your roommate will enjoy all those figurines" dans mum tapped her foot impatiently on the ground.

"he likes anime too, so we're fine"

"how do you know?"

"it was on one of his interests."

"maybe all of those are fake and he's really an insane person."

dan smiled, "believe me, ive already gone over those possibilities."

"I bet you don't even know what he looks like."

"I bet i do" dan smiled. he jumped over to where his laptop was sitting on the couch and opened it, typed in the password and showed his mother his background.

"why is your roommate your laptop background?"

"i want to make sure I know what he looks like. plus, if I study the background close enough, I can see what kinds of things are in his room."

dan pointed out a figurine from attack on titan, his colorful shirt, and some posters from varied video games.

"dan..."

"jesus christ, what mother,"

"i think you're obsessing a little too much over this. lets think logically. who actually changes their background to a person they barely know and looks at their room through a digital screen? come on , dan, who?" his mother sighed, trying to talk some sense in her sons head.

dan kept quiet, packing more boxes.

she threw her head back impatiently, "a stalker, dan, that's who."

"I just really want him to like me. like he's going to be my roommate for god knows how long, so why not at least try to get him to like me?"

"i understand. now, change that background before your new roommate sees."

dan didn't change it.

Author stuff okay:

Okay so far into the story we've uncovered this:

Dan is very insecure and wants people to like him and be friends with them.

What do you think about Phil though? What do you think he'll be like?
