The Photography Project. Phan AU

Chapter 1, Joe Sugg.

Each chapter is going to be named after a YouTuber (except the last one) because that person in the name will be the person Phil photographs in this chapter.. If that makes sense.

Phil had his camera around his neck as he wandered around school, searching for someone to photograph. He soon came across a boy who was wearing ripped skinny jeans and a cool band shirt. On it was one of Phil's favourite bands, Fall Out Boy. The boy had his brown hair up in a quiff and his eyes were blue and slightly tired. He wasn't smiling but instead frowning. He was skinny, almost too skinny but Phil didn't question anything too much.

"Excuse me," Phil spoke up, a huge grin on his face as the other boy glanced up and they made eye contact. "May I take a photo of you?" The other boy furrowed his eyebrows, looking like he was going to question it before shrugging and nodding. "Thank you." Phil stepped backwards, looking in the lens as he snapped a few photos.

"Why?" The other finally asked as Phil let go of the camera, letting it fall against his chest.

"It's for my photography project. I have to take photos of things I find beautiful."

"You think I'm beautiful? That's adorable. Thanks so much." The other boy was blushing and smiling and that made Phil's smile grow.

"No problem. I'm Phil."

"Joe." The bell rang, splitting the pair apart.

"Can I take a photo of you?" Phil asked another brown haired stranger. They swerved around and glared at Phil. He found the boy undeniably beautiful, with his chocolate brown eyes. The boy sent butterflies flying in Phil's stomach.

"Why would you want to?" The stranger snapped, anger in his countenance.

"It's for a photography project-"

"No way." The stranger then stormed off.

That made Phil sigh; the stranger was one of the most beautiful people he had ever seen and he had disappeared just like that.

Phil was rushing to English when he noticed Joe putting some books into his locker. "Hello!" Phil yelled over the commotion and Joe smiled at him.

Happiness.

-

Phil sat down in English, pulling out his book and beginning to scribble down the date. His table partner then slumped down into their seat, letting a loud sigh as they did so. Phil turned to see the boy from earlier sitting there, his head in his heads as he emptily stared down at the table.

"Are you okay?" Phil asked, gently tapping the boy on the shoulder. He flinched. The boy just ignored him.

Phil wished he could make him happy. Some people didn't feel happiness as easily as he did.. If he could just make that boy smile once, he'd feel so satisfied. Phil guaranteed that his smile would be more beautiful than any sunset, any painting ever painted or just anything in the whole wide world.

In History, Phil didn't really work all that much. He just sat at his desk, his notebook disguised slightly as he doodled random things. He found himself drawing someone's beautiful face- the boy's. Phil didn't really understand why he was so intrigued in him.

Maybe because he was a challenge. Challenges made things more interesting. Phil needed (he no longer wanted, he needed) to make that boy smile.

Phil tried to sketch how he imagined his smile to look but he just knew that it would be nothing compared to the real one.

Just to say the chapters will be really short. This is actually one of the longest chapters I think XD thanks for reading!
