Summary: Dan's cousin comes over and after a freaky trip to the museum they wake up in each other's bodies. The problem is keeping it from Phil and finding out if he likes Dan the way Dan loves him...

Alice's POV

I dragged my suitcase behind me as I frustratingly studied the piece of crumpled paper in front of me. I had accidentally sat on it on the train. Now the directions to my cousin's flat were creased and I could hardly make his smudgy handwriting. I groaned and looked around, in hope that I might see him or his mentioned flat mate. 

His name is Dan Howell and he lives with his flat mate Phil, and I'm having a hard time finding where they live. I looked over the writing one more time and was able to make out an address. I followed the numbers down the street until I found a block of flats.

Sighing, I went inside and pressed the button for the lift. I tapped my foot impatiently as I waited, there was no way I was taking the stairs. They lived on one of the top floors and I was too lazy to drag my big ass case up them all. 

After a long while of waiting I huffed and clicked the button again. "Excuse me miss?" A sickly sweet voice said behind me. I whipped round, "What?" I accidentally snapped, making her fake smile turn downwards. "The lift is out of order, you will have to take the stairs." She said, less happily this time. She trotted away in her high heels, nose held high above her head.

I groaned and grasped the handle, angrily stomping over to the stairs.

...

I was breathing heavily and there was a stitch in my side. I clutched my hip and shoved my suitcase on the top step whilst I caught my breath. I really need to get some exercise! I thought then picked up my suitcase and studied the door numbers until I came to the correct number. I quickly fixed myself up, combing my hair with my fingers and patting down any creases in my clothes.

Once I was satisfied I let out a deep breath and lifted my hand to knock. Without warning the door flew open and I ended up knocking on a chest. I looked up to see a smirking Dan, who was looking rather amused.

"You look like you've just ran a marathon! You're half an hour late y'know." He chuckled. 

"Oh shut the fuck up, I've not had the best day! First I get stared at by a creepy guy on the train, then I discover I've sat on your directions and crumpled up the paper. Reading your crappy handwriting was hard enough without the fucked up paper, THEN the lift was out of order so I had to lug this piece of shit up the stairs of mount Everest!" I groaned. He chuckled and brought me into a quick hug.

"Well you better come inside. Phil's glued to the telly so he might not notice you've arrived." He grinned and picked up my suitcase. He let out a sort of strangled yelp as he picked it up. I laughed at his face. "What have you got in here? Rocks?" He wheezed as he tried to keep himself upright and carry the case at the same time.

"No, you just have no muscle." I smiled and walked ahead, leaving him to deal with my heavy case. I walked into the living room to see Phil scrolling on his phone. I smiled and walked behind him, then tapped him on the shoulder. He jumped and looked back at me with an innocent smile.

"Hey Alice, how are you?" He asked, politely.

"Exhausted, but thanks for asking!" I grinned and fell back in his lap, yawning and sprawling out.

"Make yourself comfortable why don't ya." He teased.

"Shut up!" I mumbled, snuggling into his jumper. He chuckled and continued to play his iphone game. He's such a child!
