dan peeped his head outside his bedroom door to check for anyones presence before picking up his luggage, which consisted of just clothing and electronic devices, and quietly tiptoed throughout his house making sure not to wake anybody up in the process. once he fumbled with the door keys and set a foot outside of his home, he knew what he was doing would bring him such bliss happiness.

daniel took off in a fast pace trying to hold in his eager emotions. it was slightly chilly and almost jet black outside, with the only light source being the twinkling stars that looked after dan at night. this darkness soothed him during his darkest moments in life, truth be told. he set off, with a far location in mind - manchester. nothing made him happier than phil did, and he was destined to meet phil today, as it had been a few months ago today that he first found phil and his feelings developed into what he now knew was love.

he stood tall with shaky breaths as he could see the local train station in sight. it was 12:22AM and the train he would be traveling on arrives at 12:46AM. he would be getting an overnight sleeper train as he would be able to have a short amount of rest before moving again in manchester. (i know he would have to change in birmingham and stuff like that but its TOO MUCH TO WRITE ABOUT EVERY CHANGE SORRY)

he walked into wokingham train station, coming to terms with his very daring plan. he had pre-booked his train tickets so all he had to do was get them printed. he quickly got his tickets printed and headed off to platform 5, where the train he would be traveling on will soon arrive. to pass the extra time, dan pulled at his right jean pocket and brought out his phone to blast some what could be considered "deafening" music. listening to the music dazed dan out and he was oblivious to the train arriving until an ear-piercing, harsh sound of the train colliding with the tracks could be heard. as fast as his legs could take him, he gripped onto his luggage and shot into the train, making sure to get a sleeper cabin that was empty so he wouldn't have to deal with social interactions (even though it was a late sleeper train, it seemed other people had the same idea as him.)

he lied down, staring up at the train cabin ceiling, waiting for the long journey to start so he could get some rest. dan finally fell into a quiet slumber, dreaming of a pretty boy with astonishing blue eyes looking down at him with a beautiful gleaming smile. a glowing angel. a literal ray of sunshine. the light of my life, literally.

he finally awoke from his peaceful sleep to find out the train has now reached the destination and the anxiety and anticipation starts to build up within him. the day he's dreamed about for years has finally come, and dan doesn't know whether or not to cry or laugh from extreme happiness. dan hopes that phil does not mind meeting him as phil has no idea that dan has decided to go to manchester.

dan swipes his phone out of his pocket to see that the time is 4:50AM and sets out to find the nearest mcdonalds or even an open cafe. dan slowly plodded outside of the train station only to come face to face with a bright city with constant traffic and a huge nightlife scenery. he walked over to the mcdonalds and lightly pushed the door, stepping in and ordering a hot chocolate. dan yet again pulls out his phone and swiftly presses his earphones into his ears, pressing play on his phone for a shuffle of music.

when he has finally finished, he glides out of his chair and out into the open air, not forgetting his luggage. phil had told dan his address a long time ago during one of their many skype calls which dan had memorised for situations such as this one. he starts to make his way to phil's house, not knowing if he's even going down the right street or not.

in the end, dan finally gave up defeat and google maps his address so he could see his sunshine soon. phil meant the world to dan and would go to the ends of the earth and back for him. nobody has noticed dan's disappearance at home yet which he was very thankful for, but it wouldn't take long for somebody to notice his presence is no longer there.

he ended up walking for about an hour and a half, blasting music to preoccupy the time and to try and sooth dan from actually dying from excitement. it was around 6:40AM when he finally reached phil's accommodation. now that dan was finally outside the residence of phil's, he didn't know what to do.

dan had no idea what his reaction would be, he didn't even know if phil would actually let him in, and that scared dan. it didn't scare him to the point where dan was willing to return home, but he was afraid of what would eventually occur when phil opened that door. dan was hoping deep down that phil wouldn't hate him for randomly showing up outside of his house, barging his way through his house like he did with phil's entire life, when he oh so desperately searched for phil. he didn't want phil to be disappointed with him, meeting him the way that he has now planned it out to be. all these negative emotions were going through dan's head, but at this point there was no turning back. he loved phil and would give him the world. anything that he could do for phil, he would do it. dan loved phil too much to let go of him. phil is the person who kept dan sane for days on end when nobody around bothered for him. it's very evident that phil had saved dan's life.

dan gently raises his hand but briskly knocked on phil's door, hoping that phil can hear him from the other side. his heart was pounding and hammering against his chest. he was nervous of phil's reaction if he did open the door. after a few moments, there is sound and movement coming from phil's side of the door. dan shakily smiles whilst the door is being pulled open, with a person peeping their head around the door, checking who could be knocking on their door so early in the morning.

"um..hi phil..."

and he burst into tears.

of joy, of course.

the person whom he loved the most had their arms wrapped around daniel, cradling dan and whispering sweet words to help sooth him.  dan being with phil kept dan at peace, and he was finally where he thought he belonged.

with phil.
