prologue

Dan had never been more excited in his whole life. It was the day he was going to meet Phil. They would be spending the whole day together, and they could get to really know each other.
Dan had never more nervous in his whole life. It was the day he was going to meet Phil. Had the endless hours of Skype calls and text messages been leading up to nothing?
Dan looked in the mirror and decided he needed to straighten out his hobbit hair. He thought it made him look too girly for his taste. He reached for his flat iron and began to straighten his hair out. (like his sexuality - h)
Dan had wanted this for a long time. He and Phil both thought that their friendship was strong enough to take to the next level. (if you know what I mean -h)
Dan believed that as soon as he saw Phil everything would be okay; Phil was the reassurance Dan needed in life. Dan knew that when he was around Phil, he could truly be hisself... or could he?

Phil was more than excited to meet Dan. However, Phil was still quite terrified of meeting the brown eyed boy who he had spent countless hours skyping and texting with. He didn't even know what Dan thought about him. Did he think of him as more than a friend? Phil certainly did. Phil really does like Dan. There wasn't a day that passed where Phil didn't think about Dan.
It was now 9:03am, meaning Dan would be getting on the train soon. Phil looked in the mirror one last time and fixed his fringe until he decided it looked good enough to show Dan.

Just one more stop and then Dan would be in Manchester Piccadilly. He would finally get to meet Phil. He had been waiting for this forever and every second seemed to drag out longer the closer the train got to Phil's stop.
Even with Dan constantly giving pep talks to himself, he still couldn't help but shift around anxiously in his seat on the train. Everything is going to be fine.
It was quite obvious that Dan had a huge crush on Phil. (or so he thinks) They would constantly flirt through Skype and text. Despite the flirting, Dan still had some doubts about whether Phil liked him back and his little devil constantly hissed, "Phil just wants to be friends."
Besides, why would someone as beautiful as Phil Lester want to date someone as boring as Dan?
Finally, they arrived at the next stop. Just ten more minutes and then Dan would be with Phil, reaching his arms around Phil and hugging him tightly.

Dan was still worrying about whether Phil would want to be just friends, especially if Dan did something stupid and Phil wouldn't want to be friends anymore and maybe -
The voice of train conductor interrupted Dan's thoughts, "We are now approaching Manchester Piccadilly." (dilly sounds wrong omg -h)
