Authors Note; this is going to be something special :)) basically I'm writing about how you (the reader) runs into dan and phil and you guys become good friends (haha un realistic but wtv)
Y/N= your name

Dan sidestepped a puddle in the busy streets of London, knocking into your umbrella and almost knocking you over.

"Oh dear I'm so sorry mam," Dan genuinely apologized and helped you up, which results in him accidentally rustling your umbrella which drips the water all over you. You're not in a good mood, so you scowl a little but then realize whose in front of you. Dan fucking Howell. You're cheeks flush pink and try not to fangirl too hard. Embarrassed, you try to smile.

"Oh it's okay," you forgive him for his mess and debate on whether or not you should ask for his autograph.

"Let me guess, you want my autograph? Selfie perhaps?" Your mouth hangs open in surprise, unable to say anything. You manage to squeak out and ask him how'd he know.

"Oh I know everything," he winks, and notices you're still shocked so he points at your umbrella, "you have the umbrella from the shop I share with Phil."

You fluster even more, but thankfully under the gloomy grey sky's, Dan couldn't notice the rosy glower.
Damn! I just had to bring this one out today.

He grins and takes your phone from your hand and eases next to you, pulling up the camera. "Smile!"

You try to but Dan just shook his head and told you to actually smile.

Of course, you tried, but you tried again. Dan almost laughs when he sees you desperately trying to smile genuinely. He took the picture with a click, and swiftly hands your umbrella back- you hadn't even realised he had took it from you. 

"Smile more, you look nicer when you do," 

Before you could even squeak out a goodbye, he was gone.

You stood there dumbfounded in the mist, watching him enter a taxi and buzz away.

You shake a little as you pull open your umbrella, only to find it to be signed by Dan.

It was a happy face doodle scribbled next to his fancy signature, with a note saying how he wished Phil was there to say hi. 

Shocked as ever, you instead put the umbrella away and walk in the light drizzle, trembling as you start a steady pace to find your friend and let your mind explode. 

This was not how I expected to meet my idols. 

You mumble to yourself as you swiftly walk away, occasionally looking back to see if Dan was still there. 

Why are you looking back! You clearly saw him leave!

Much like a self instinct, you can't help but feel a little sorrowful you didn't spend more time with Dan. Maybe I should have been like "Oh I'm sorry for getting in your way, let me take you out to have tea to show you I'm sorry" Instead of standing there, barely speaking. 

You smile for the rest of the way, but mostly to prevent yourself from screaming in shock how your day had turned

Perhaps I should continue this?
Lemme know if i should
