Author note: YOU HAVE TO READ THE WHOLE THING TO UNDERSTAND. I hope that you understand what I was getting at with this phanfiction. I truly believe that this is one of my best ones. Triggers: any triggers that I could put here would spoil the ending, but if you're a sensitive person, then this may be hard for you to read.

E D I T I N G Dan has a new neighbor. His new neighbor Phil who happens to be an insomniac who loves playing the violin in the dead of the night, baking cookies and who also has a cat who spends half of her time in Dan's house. Dan finds Phil very annoying but he really can't resist those blue-green eyes...

Really quick, *trigger warning suicide* Okay, hopefully everyone who reads this is being safe, and has a box of tissues nearby as the person I had proof read this did burst into tears. Though that may just be from my terrible writing skills...

Like alot of stories out there Dan is super depressed badly but he hides it from Phil until one day.....

In which Dan is a broken hooker who is barely hanging on

Daniel Howell is twitchy, energetic and slightly hyperactive. Phil Lester is more slow, rhythmic yet intriguing. Although they share a flat, they know next to nothing about each other - well, except they can't stand to live together. Convinced the other is up to something, they begin to investigate, unaware that they're both hiding the same thing. // collab w @foreverhome-

Dan howell is starting at a new school, he is abused and raped by his own father, Phil lester is the so called emo fag, people call him that because someone told everyone he's gay, so he gets brutally beaten everyday but pretends as if nothing happens, what happens when they met? Started: August 30th Ended: January 18th

Dan needs to let go. His parents died and he was left to live with his aunt. Nothing was really the same and he just didn't want to let go of the people that once made his life happy. He has a recurring nightmare that haunts him every night. He is stuck in a glass room and he doesn't know how to escape. He's trapped. Not just metaphorically but literally too. TW: Death and implications of suicide.

"I bursted out crying. I wasn't sure why, but at the same time, I knew exactly why. I wasn't a test dummy to Phil, I was a person"
