A/n: Hello everybody! Today is March 13, 2021. I feel like I should say something about how it's been one year since America shut down...but like you would shut down a toddler throwing a tantrum, I'm not going to give it attention 😌 ✨thank yew

Y/n, Anna, and Tom stand between two doors. "So," Anna begins, "We're staying in a conjoined suite. You two know what this means, right?" 

Tom glances down at Y/n, reddening. "Ew, Anna!" Y/n exclaims. 

Anna rolls her eyes. "No, this means we're going to have a slumber party. Jeez, you guys."

"Ah," Tom says, sucking in his teeth. They unlock their doors and walk into the hotel rooms, setting down their stuff. Y/n glances at the clock and realizes how jet lagged she is. "Anna, the flight left at 6:30am in Atlanta, then they flew west to California, which is 3 hours behind. The flight was 6 hours, so add 6, then subtract 3 because of the time difference, and it is now only 9:00am in California. Boom- mathematics," Y/n explains, using hand gestures to emphasize the math.

Anna blinks at her. "I didn't understand a word of that other than it's 9:00am in Cali." Y/n laughs at her and turns around to find the door that conjoins the suites open, with Tom leaning in the doorway.

"Slumber party?"

9:00 pm

"OOH, THERE'S ALCOHOL IN THE MINI FRIDGE!" Anna exclaims, grabbing canned cocktails from the mini fridge and handing them out. Y/n takes it and sit down, now changed back into her Loki pajamas after a day of desperately trying to overcome the jetlag like it was a bad hangover.

"What does one do at a slumber party?" Tom asks, sipping his cocktail.

"Truth or dare, never have I ever, dance party, pillow fight, paint nails," Y/n says, listing off everything on her fingers. She glances down at Tom's large hands with his cut-down nails. "I actually think that the stylists and the fandom would love to see you with black nail polish." She shudders. "The fan-art is...beautiful."

Tom glances at Anna, who has a far-off look in her eyes and is biting her lip. "I'm...uncomfortable," he says, looking between the two girls. They snap out of it and smile casually. 

"OOH!" Y/n exclaims, grabbing her phone and her speaker from her suitcase. She quickly types something in and connects the electronics. A soft country guitar fills the room. Tom places his face and his hands, but Y/n sidles up to him and takes his hand, intertwining their fingers as she sways.

"What eye whreally whant to whknow is why don't you love me like you used to?" Y/n asks, dramatizing the southern accent as a joke to Tom's performance in "I Saw the Light."

"Why would you do this to me, darling?" Tom groans. Y/n grins at him and goes over to Anna, sinking to her knees and taking her hand. Anna snootishly turns her face up and feigns annoyance. 

"Well, why don't you love me like you used to do? How come you treat me like a worn-out shoe? My hair is still curly and my eyes are still blue. Why don't you love me like you used to do?" Y/n sings. She scuffles over to Tom and gives him her best puppy dog eyes.

He sighs. "I ain't have no loving and no kissing and no hugging in a long, long while," he reluctantly sings, much to Y/n's happiness.

"Truth or dare, Anna?" Y/n asks. The three of them are sitting in a circle, Y/n bent over Tom's hand as she paints his nails black. His blue eyes watch her with great interest.
