The library. The only place where 18 year old Dan Howell can escape his (abusive) parents. His life has been terrible. Parents always fighting. Parents being drunk. What a happy life, right?
It wasn't until one day at the library, a new boy named Phil decided to visit the library. After encountering each other whilst trying to grab the same book and start talking, they instantly realize they share things in common. When Dan decided to tell Phil this "cute" little thing couples do, Phil decides to do it, too. For him. For the boy he had just met in the library.
TW: Abusive parenting, mentions of self-harm. Not very major, though.
Genre: Fluff, some angst
This is basically a Teen!Phan phanfic and an AU.
[COMPLETED] Phan Au. Dan and Phil are in the same year at school and finally meet through a similarity, but how will their separate and different lives affect their friendship and could it blossom into something more?
Find out how Phil overcomes obstacles bigger than what he should have to face at this age and how Dan overcomes fear of loving someone outside of his social group at school.
Mostly fluff, some angst to make it interesting. There will be some swearing, but not major.
This is based off of one of my one shots "You're cute" - go check out my Phan one shots if you want to. :P
