the moon shone on the boy who laid in the field of daisies. he had been there all night. he fell asleep around midnight. it was 3:07 now. the moon was slowly fading away, leaving a deep pink splattered across the sky.

when the boy woke up, the sky was grey and rain slowly pattered against the ground. he decided he should get up before it started pouring.

he watched his old doc martens splash the water up to his knees as he skipped along the pavement.

when it started to pour, he pulled his yellow hood over his brown hair. he started to sprint so he could get into the cafe before his pink leggings were completely soaked.

when the boy got inside, he hung his raincoat up on a hook and walked up to the counter.

"good morning, dan. want the usual?" the woman at the counter asked him.

"good morning, jess. yes please," dan replied, handing her two pounds. he skipped over to his usual seat by the window and waited for his black coffee.

he opened tumblr as he sipped his drink. he scrolled through the pink and purple blogs. after liking a couple, he checked his inbox.

"hello. sorry to bother you.
this is probably super super
dumb. you probably get a lot
of these and this is wasting your
time. i just wanted to say that
your account is amazing and
you're hella cute. i noticed you're
following me? i don't really
understand why? my account
sucks and yours is perfection.
so why did you follow me?
you don't have to answer.
sorry for wasting your time. bye."
                 - phil-lester

that was unusual. people messaged him all the time saying "check out my blog!" or "omfg ilysm! fb?" but never asking why he followed them.

he clicked on the account. a black background popped up first, then a flash picture of a black haired boy with bright blue eyes. most of the pictures were taken in the dark. the flash lit up pictures of graffiti and neon signs and blurry selfies. dan sighed and clicked back to the message.

"because you're cute."

then he pressed the power button and walked into the restroom. he sat down on the white tile and unzipped his fluffy pink backpack. he got out his makeup bag and got to work.

he finished his smokey eye with a perfect wing and added a dark red lipstick before walking back to his seat to watch people rushing through the rain to get to their jobs on time.

dan liked sitting by the window every morning so he could observe all the people that went past. he liked to make up backstories for everyone. he was making up a story about two boys holding hands when his phone buzzed.

tumblr- message from phil-lester

"sorry, i'm really not cute.
how did you even find
my dumb account anyway?"

"kik me. dan-howell."

kik- message from chillyphilly

"hi. it's phil-lester."

"great username."

"my seven year old
cousin came up with it."

"i like it."
"a lot."

"really?"

"nah. i'm kidding."

"oh."

"sorry."

"whatever."

"alright."

dan picked up his coffee cup and his coat and headed out the door. whoever this phil guy was, he seemed pretty cool.

[ hello! just to let you know the format for the texting is going to be different i just made it that way for this chapter so don't worry. it won't be just texting, there will be actual paragraphs and stuff just like in this chapter. so thank you if you read all of this because that means you're super cool.
