Daniel James Howell has a typical teenage life, with the acceptation of a semi-dark past. His life was drama free, and had no major worries. That's until a student teacher starts to teach his art class. They instantly clicked and even more. Dan never had any big secrets, he could always tell his "friends" everything. But if him and Mr.Lester are going to continue seeing one another he'll have to hide everything, and cross his fingers the school board doesn't find out. (Keep in mind, Dan is the age of consent so that's not why the relationship is problematic. But students and teachers aren't allowed to be together)

Phil's family needed the money, Dan's family could spare the money. WARNINGS - swearing - smut (later on in the story) - self injury - mental disorders I'm sorry to have so many warnings, and I am in no way forcing Phan or promoting mental illnesses. Stay safe and enjoy.

"I see a lonely boy. Someone who trusted another person & that person person left him & stopped talking to him all together. I see someone who deserves love & kindness. He deserves an explanation. I see Phil. Wonderful, amazing, beautiful Phil. Fuck Carrie, I might like Phil." +×+ Or the one where Dan & Phil used to be best friends but something tragic happened to Dan and he cut Phil and the rest of the world-minus his parrnts and cousin- out of his life completely until Phil has to spend winter holiday with the Howells. +×+ co-written with @Salazaaar09 +×+ *ngl, this is v cliche but I hope you like it* +×+

Everything was like a puzzle that had yet to be put together. It was like all the pieces were there, but you didn't know where to connect them and how they fit in. Dan was the puzzle, and I wanted to know how to solve it.

Phil is an orphan, bullied, and living alone with no friends in a home. He does his best not to let that fact that no one seems to care about him get to him, but it's getting harder. Then a nice couple start to take interest in him, and it turns out they have a son his age, Daniel, but the love they begin to share isn't of a brotherly nature...

in a world where your moods are visible above your head, displayed through pictures and icons, it's impossible to hide your true feelings. however dan howell seems to be lacking this. labelled as an emotionless freak, dan is outcasted because his moods are never visible. that is, until an endlessly happy boy named phil wonders why.

They say that the moment you find the love of your life, you're love-struck. They say you can't speak because your mouth is too dry and your heart is beating too fast and forming a coherent thought, let alone sentence, is an impossible task. (Few people also say something about 'sparks' or getting lost in the stranger's eyes) I found this to be untrue on the day that I ran into Phil Lester. - Dan's life USED to be normal. Just like any other nineteen year old in London, he lived on his own in a cheap flat, ordered food from every take-out place, and played video games all day when he wasn't working. But when he runs into Phil Lester, who becomes his best friend and more, things change.

"This is going to be a difficult time for me if my adoptive brother is this attractive. "

Working at a bakery has its perks, like meeting the love of your life. *im updating I promise 9/15/2020 Copyright © 2016

Dan and Phil, Phil and Dan, Daniel and Philip, Phan. No matter how you put it, these names belong with each other. Dan Howell and Phil Lester are two YouTubers who live together. This isn't an alternative universe, this takes place in present day. This is a story about how they could realize their feelings for each other and the conflict that could come with these feelings. There's denial, suspense, powerful feels, possible shouting at your screen, somewhat fluff, and some awkward yet heated smut later on.
