Falling in Love Wasn't Part of the Plan | Phan AU

Dan Howell always made it his mission to know the staff. He knew each servant by name and took time to get to know them for who they truly were, unlike his mother and father who only cared if they served supper on the appointed time and knew how to handle shoe polish.

Charlotte Lester was his favorite. Ever since he was small she had always snuck him extra goods under silver platter lids, she taught him piano and hushed his giggles when he struck the wrong key, she wiped away his tears when his knee got a scrape from tripping over one of the grand rugs; she was the kind, mother-like older woman whose hands were a bit too callused for someone who worked too much in the kitchen and smelled of vanilla.

One day a pale, bright-eyed boy by the name of Phil Lester shows up, and Dan's life may just become a bit my exciting.

NOTE: This is entirely fluff-based. No suicide or any triggering stuff like that. Yes, there will be angst thrown in her and there. But really, when isn't there?
