Dan Howell was just an insecure 17 year old, hating each and every aspect of himself. After all, his entire life, he grew up with a father who blamed and hated him because of the accident that caused Dan's mother's death when Dan was only 10 years old. At school, he wasn't exactly the most popular kid, and regularly puts up with bullies and their beatings. And the one friend Dan ever made in high school left him when Dan built up the courage to come out of the closet to him.
It wasn't exactly easy for a boy like Dan to put his trust in anyone.... until a beautiful boy with blue eyes and black hair named Phil enrolls in Dan's school and takes the time to get to know Dan, showing them both what an amazing thing called "love" can do to someone's life...

pretend (phan)
Dan Howell was the typical spoiled, rich boy with butlers driving him to operas and maids making him nachos for breakfast. Phil Lester, however, was the opposite. Barely any money and deadbeat parents, he lives in a bad neighborhood in a gross apartment with cat hair covering the carpet and an odd roommate. And then Dan's parents decide he needs to love someone rather than himself, and when Phil shows up at his mansion steps, Dan's parents grow fond of him- so much that the two are exchanging rings and Phil is moving in with his new spouse. They tell Dan he should give it a few months, to be patient, and if he still doesn't like him then they'll sign the divorce papers and call it quits. Marriage isn't perfect, right? Well this one is the exact example. But they could always pretend.Complete
Danny's Girl (Phan)
I've read a bunch of phan, so why not write one? Dan Howell's life couldn't be any better at the moment. He has met the most beautiful, charming, kind girl he could ever imagine, and she loves him back. Everything is perfect... but not for Phil. Phil Lester has always been in love with Dan since the first moment he first met him, but now Phil's heart is crushed. He has some suspicions of Dan's girlfriend, but Dan just brushes it off, ignoring Phil completely. Unfortunately, Phil's bad feelings may be true... Sexual content, self harm, language, and domestic abuse warning. Also, I'm American, so if I get anything wrong, please tell me. ••• Update: This is very old (not really that old) writing! It's cringy as hell, and I apologize in advance. I have fixed a few errors, so if it seems slightly different than it was before, that's why.Complete
