When Words Fail Chapter 1

Summary: All Dan wanted to do was get through school like a normal person, but if Phil Lester called him "Prince" one more time, he was going to kick him out of Sealand.

A/N: here is my pic for the PBB 2017! Due to a glitch, I can't post it all in one go, so I'll post it in really short chapters while I wait for Tumblr to fix it. Thank you to @whydoiprocrastinate for being my amazing beta! Thank you to @pickinglester for being my artist! The art will be up soon, but go check out Cami's Tumblr is the meanwhile! One last note: Sealand is an actual country off of Britain, but no one lives there. It's pretty interesting, so I recommend googling it. Now onto the story!

As the car approached the weathered brick building, Dan leaned against the window, his eyes wide. He thought about how his life inside the walls would be. He imagined hanging out with his new friends, doing work and caffeine-fueled rants early in the morning. But most of all, he imagined a place where he could forget his royal duties and act like an actual person. That is why the school is so far away from the island of Sealand. So that he can act like himself without the eyes of the public watching him. Instead of a tall building, he sees relief. He sees his future.

---

Growing up in a Sealand, Phil didn’t see a future off the island. His parents didn’t have the money to send him to school outside of Sealand. So he tried his best, working his ass off until he got the opportunity to apply to Diligitis Academy, a school in England that costs enough to make sure that only the best attend.

Phil didn’t expect to be accepted, so we he got a letter that read “Congratulations.” He had to read the letter many times to finally except that it was happening. After many years of hard work, it finally payed off and he was accepted into a top school with a full scholarship. (he totally will not admit that he cried despite the fact that he totally did.)

It was a few months later, when he was packing, that it set in that he was going to spend time away from his family for the first time, in another country, and he took a deep breath before continuing packing. When he finally left his house, his suitcase next to him, his entire neighborhood waved off his parent’s car off on their way to the airport.

On the plane ride there, he looked out the window as it flew away from Sealand, away from his home and his family. He closed his eyes for a second, and reminded himself of the future he can now have because of Diligitis Academy.

As the car drove up to The Academy, his heart rate increased. The tall, old building intimidated him, and he immediately felt like he didn’t belong. He paid the driver before they pulled up, and he got out as the driver got his luggage. He thanked the driver as he rolled his suitcase into the building, not making eye contact with the people around him. He followed the others up to a table in the front hall, getting on line for his year.

“Name?” was the first world spoken to him by the intimidating woman sitting across the table from him.

“Philip Lester,” he said swallowing. The intimidating woman handed him his file.

“This file contains your dorm, a map, schedule, the student handbook, and a calendar with all important events. A paper will have all the meeting you will be required to attend. Classes start in two days at 8 o’clock. Next!” The woman called out, a shocked Phil grabbing his suitcase and walking away from the table. He took out his dorm assignment and the map.

“I can do this” he whispered to himself as he walked out of the building, his head held high.

---

Dan unlocked his dorm and walked in pleased to find it empty. He put his suitcase and bag on the bed to the right. He immediately began to put his stuff in the drawers, pausing when he came upon a locked wooden box. His parents voices echoed in his head, “Just incase,” they say. “You might need it.” He blocks out the voices as he hides the box under his clothes. He didn’t see a point in unlocking it. He knew what the the box held. A crown. His crown, to be more specific, However, he ignored it, and ignored the way the key seemed to burn his skin from where it sat hanging from around his neck. In this school, he wasn’t Price Daniel from Sealand, he was Dan, just Dan.
