Dan thinks himself to be straight. That is, until Phil enters the picture. Without warning-and most definitely without his permission-Dan begins to develop feelings that are completely new to him. *Currently being edited High School AU // Dan POV // Completed Book cover by the lovely GypsyRover :)

What really happened between Rider and Dan after his dream? [I guess you could call this the third book in the series.]

Phil is the new patient at an adolescent mental health unit. A young Dan is told to keep an eye on him but apparently, not caring causing things to go down hill. Will Phil get better, for Dan, as well as himself? ~ COMPLETE ~ BOOK ONE ~

Dan's starting at new school. He never fit in at his old one, but when he meets a new friend, he finally starts to feel like he belings somewhere.

"Why are you always so sad and gloomy?" "What's so wrong with being sad?" "Everything."

Pastel!Dan x Punk!Phil Dan Howell was different to say the least, he was the only guy in his school to wear flowers in his perfectly straightened hair, to wear button down shirts under his pastel colored jumpers, or wear pastel jumpers. Or to wear light colored skinny jeans and converse. He only had two friends, the only other people to dress similar to him. Phil Lester was the opposite, he wore all black, his fringe was dyed blue and he pierced and tattooed his skin against his mothers wishes. He was the schools bad boy, he could care less about his grades or where he would go after high school. He spent his days sassing his teachers, bullying helpless peers and skipping class. On the last day of school Dans friends invite him along to a summer camp so the three of them can enjoy the three months of summer vacation away from their small town. Dan agrees, mainly to get away from a particular bully, Phil Lester, who seems to be set out for him and only him until he realizes, Phil is at camp too. Against Dans deepest desire to return to their small town, he stays, and prepares for the longest summer of his lifetime.

The story of how a rainy day and a startled ferret can change everything. Dan's a sixteen year old self-confessed art hoe who spends a lot of time in the trees off to the side of house. Phil's a seventeen year old ferret enthusiast with insanely bright blue eyes who happens to take his ferret, Susan, there for a walk. Vaguely (well perhaps more than vaguely) homosexual chaos ensues.

the air smells like the promise of tomorrow and nothing has ever smelled more terrifying

in which dan and phil are best friends, but dan wishes it was something more.

"Love is blind." - Geoffrey Chaucer, The Canterbury Tales: The Merchant's Tale. "Love is the state in which man sees things most decidedly as they are not." - Friedrich William Nietzsche, The Antichrist "When we want to read of the deeds that are done for love, whither do we turn? To the murder column." - George Bernard Shaw, Three Plays for Puritans, Preface A punk!Phil and teacher!Dan story. Dan is a school teacher with not much of a social life. Phil is a tattoo artist with too much of a past... When they collide how will their worlds merge? This is NOT a safe story: there will be reference to suicide, murder, rape etc. later on, which will be indicated at the beginning of the relevant chapters.
