Dan and Phil managed to leave the house! "Dan I want to go to Starbucks," whined Phil. "I can't believe you got me to get up from tumblr position. Ug I hate human interaction," laughed Dan. "Oh come on you love it," chuckled Phil. "True, but still," smiled Dan. They got inside and Phil stopped. "What's wrong," asked Dan before he noticed her. She had (h/l) (h/c), and was dressed so cute! "Phil?" Said Dan. "Hu? Oh sorry," said Phil embarrassed. "Go talk to her," whisper Dan. "No," Phil replied blushing lightly. "Just do it, she's cute," smirked Dan. "Ok fine," he groaned quietly as he walked over to her. Clumsily knocking down a 'new drink sign'. Dan tried not to laugh. She looked up at him in confusion. Her sparkling (e/c) eyes gazed into his striking blue ones, and Phil could feel his face turn red.

"Hey there my names Phil, what's your name," smiled Phil. Her (h/l) (h/c) looked so soft Phil wanted to take a nap in it. She smiled lovingly, making his heart skip a beat. Then she replied with, "go to hell Lester." Phil was so shocked he froze! Dan burst into laughter then ran up to him. As she walked away. "What the hell," asked Dan. "I don't know! She knows my last name but I don't have a clue who she is!" Said Phil upset. "Calm down there Philly, let me go talk with her," said Dan. Phil nodded as he caught up with (y/n). "Hey hold on," called Dan and she turned around. Dan caught up to her and smiled. "Hello there my name is, Dan," he said in the most friendly way possible. "My name is (y/n). What do you want Dan," she asked. "Can I perchance know why you hate Phil Lester," he smiled. "He's an asshole," (y/n) snapped. "Whoa whoa whoa there lady! Not Phil! He's the sweetest man ever," gasped Dan. "Listen, it's a long story. But I haven't vented in a while so how about I tell you and in exchange you can buy me a coffee," she smiled. "Hm ok," said Dan. He texted Phil, that he would meet up with him at home and explain. They got coffee and they sat down. "Ok so what happened was, in high school I asked Phil if he wanted to go out on a date, he was nervous and said no. I was heart broken but I excepted it. Later I found out it was all because of my hair color. His friends told me that I wasn't pretty enough, and when these girls found out I was bullied. They told me that I was a waste of his time. At fist I blamed myself, then I noticed he started avoiding me, ignoring me, and I was more broken. I don't blame him for rejecting me, I blame him for never standing up for me when the bullying continued," she sighed. "Maybe he didn't know what to say to those people," said Dan.

"My main bully was his brother. When he did have to talk to me, he'd call me that name.... Ask him. He should remember. That nickname that haunts me to this day," she said depressingly and Dan stopped. (Y/n) took a sip of her coffee, then said, "just a moment ago he asked me out, so call me shallow but I feel better about myself. Nothing felt better than saying no." "So your completely over him," Dan asks before taking a sip. She did an unsure half smile before saying, "I wish." Dan thought about options and how to handle this. "I think I can help," he smiled. "Hu?" You say confused. "I'm his flat mate, so what if we pretended to go out or be friends, you could see how Phil has changed," said Dan. "Hm.... Ok, but if it doesn't go well I prefer if we pretend today never happens," sighed (y/n). "Deal," smiled Dan.

They parted ways after exchanging phone numbers, and he headed back to his flat. "Dan! What happened with her," yelled Phil. "Ok first, your in my crisis position, and second Do you remember (y/n)," Dan asked. "Uh not really. I know too many (y/n)'s in my life," groaned Phil. "Ok how about the girl that asked you out in high school. The one who you started avoiding," said Dan and Phil shot up. "Oh no.... OH NO," moaned Phil covering his mouth. "So you do remember," smirked Dan. "Well yeah! Omg I'm an idiot... How could I not remember her," Phil said saddenedly. (I made a word... It's a word.) "So explain," said Dan.

"Well she was a cute girl, but I was too shy to date. All my friends knew she liked me, but it was never confirmed till she asked me out. I got teased to much I had to say no. My brother was the worst about it. After that I knew she hated me so I avoided her. I was so shy and scared. Soon I learned she had a nickname from my brother... To prove I still wanted to be friends I started calling her that. She glared at me, and soon she avoided me too," Phil sighed. "Um what was it?" Asked Dan curious now. "It was (offensive nickname, that seemed innocent)," Phil said. "Phil you jerk, you should have just talked to her?" Dan said face-palming. "I know I feel so bad," sighed Phil. "Well it's ok, she's over you anyway," said Dan. "How do you know," said Phil raising an eyebrow.

"I asked her out,"
