One
Dan Howell, the twenty one year-old monochromian. Colorblind and deprived of love. But was he always?
He'd been on Earth for two months and hadn't found the love from his dream- flashback. It was a flashback, he reminded himself.
But he wondered whether it was a lost memory or a dream still. After all, he didn't really remember doing a lot of the stuff...
Anyway, he was having no luck finding his love. He didn't know where to start looking, but he knew that as soon as he saw his love, he'd...
Well, he wasn't sure.
He couldn't remember their gender. All he remembered was their face. No, he didn't know the color, but... he was sure that once he saw them for the first time, he'd know it was them.
Dan and his friend, Felix Kjellberg, had to stay together, looking.
"Hey," Dan uttered into the silent room, the light from the sun brightening up the colorless world as he let out a breath, despite the fact that he didn't need the oxygen. He breathed solely for the purpose of appearing human, and he got used to doing it every second of the day. "Pewds?"
"Hm?" Felix replied to the nickname like he always did, looking over his shoulder briefly from where he stood in the kitchen, cooking something for the two of them to have for lunch.
"What if I can't find them?" Dan asked, playing with a flower in a vase of water on the kitchen table absentmindedly.
"Who?" Felix asked, putting the grilled cheese sandwiches onto plates. "The one from your dream?"
Dan sighed. "Yeah..." He murmured, gazing out the window. "I mean, it's just... the earth is a big planet... he could be anywhere, y'know...?"
"I know, I know."
"It's like... sometimes I wonder if it really was just a dream. But like, when I wake up, the dream isn't done... so maybe it's real... like... I dunno what I'm saying..."
"I think I get it," Felix said, smiling lightly as he gave the other boy his grilled cheese. "I think I know what you're saying. It's like you think it was a dream, but when you wake up, you feel like it actually happened?"
"Yeah, yeah... I think..."
The two ate in silence after that, and when they were done, Dan stood and put his plate in the sink, brushing off his hands.
"I'm going out to look some more," he said, and Felix nodded, putting his plate in the sink as well.
Dan grabbed his sketchbook and went to the door. As he went outside, he accidentally bumped into someone.
"I'm sorry," he said, but the person smiled.
"It's alright, don't worry about it."
Dan's eyes widened. "Do I know you?"
The guy shook his head. "Nah, besides, I'd remember a cute fella like you."
Dan blushed, but it couldn't be seen, for it was a white glow.
"O- Oh... well... I mean, you just look familiar."
"Ah, well I'm Troye. I live in this apartment building."
"I see," Dan said, smiling. "I do, too."
"Got a name, gorgeous?"
"Dan... it's Dan."
"It suits you."
Dan chuckled. "So, Troye, can I ask you something?
The boy nodded. "Of course."
"Do you know someone that looks like this?" Dan asked, showing Troye his sketch of his love.
Troye nodded. "Oh, yeah!"
"You do?"
"Mhm, yeah, that's Phil. He's not quite a friend, but we've talked before. He works at this diner I go to almost everyday. Wow, that sketch is pretty good, but he looks a bit feminine."
"Ah, well, I didn't know his gender... but yeah, thank you. What's the name of this diner?"
"Sam's. It's Sam's Diner."
"Sam... that name sounds awfully familiar..."
"Ah, well, I have to go now."
"Alright, bye Troye, and thanks again."
"It's no problem." And then Troye was walking inside, and Dan was smiling widely.
Was he really about to find his love?
