Lexi and I walked outside to where the cast was signing and tried to get as close as we could to the walkway but there were too many people and we were pushed out of the way. She looked at me with sad eyes. I knew that she really wanted their autograph's but we were too far back to get them. We watched as the cast members made their way signing everyone's posters. Lexi looked hurt that she didn't get their signatures. When everything was over people started to head back to their cars. We started to follow them out when I felt a slight tug on my wrist. I turned around to see none other then Tom Felton grabbing my arm. I heard Lexi scream next to me but Tom was quick to keep her quiet so nobody would notice.
"How come I didn't see you two getting signatures?" He asked us. I stared at him like he was crazy. How would he notice that we didn't get his signature? What would that matter to him? I told him the reason why we couldn't and he told us to follow him. I was hesitant at first because this guy is a complete stranger to me but Lexi gleefully followed him with puppy dog eyes so I went along with them. We started to head to the back of the building only to find all the other cast members that were here at the signing in a back room. They were all sitting around on a couch watching tv and playing card games. Tom got everyone's attention with a slight cough.
"Oh My God!!!" Lexi screamed behind me. They all laughed at her excitement. We all introduced ourselves and talked for a bit. We talked about our jobs and hobbies. Lexi ended up getting all the signatures that she wanted and she made me get some too. I didn't have anything for them to sign so Tom gave me one of his old Deathly Hallow's Books. I laughed and went along with it and got everyone's signatures.
We talked some more but then we got tired and headed back to the car. She got into the drivers seat and turned on some music as we headed back to her house. The song "Gold old Fashioned Lover Boy" by Queen came on the radio and we yelled out all the lyrics. It was my favorite song. We laughed some more and I looked at the book that she gave to me with all the signatures in it. I looked at the first page and saw everyone's but Tom's. I thought it was weird and continued trying to look for his. When I got to the chapter entitled, "The Malfoy Manor" I saw his signature and a number next to it. I screamed and Lexi slammed on the breaks. Luckily there was nobody around us.
"What the Hell?!" she yelled. I showed her the book and she screamed as well. "Oh my lord! You have to call him! You're so lucky!"
We continued our drive and I though to myself for a bit. Why would he give me his number? Was that meant for Lexi? Wait Lexi liked him would she be mad if I called him?
I kept thinking and thinking until finally we arrived at her house.
"Stop overthinking about it so much. I'm glad you got it so maybe you can hook me up with Dan while your at it." She said while laughing
"I though that you liked Tom?" I questioned her. She shook her head,
"Nah. That was just some silly fantasy. Your the one that is going to live it." She grabbed my arms and started jumping up and down like a crazy person. She seemed happier about this than I thought possible. I mean I was happy about it, but she is going insane. I finally calmed her down and we headed to her room.
"I don't know if I am going to call or text him. I mean I know that he is famous but I just met the guy so I can't be too sure if he would want to be with me. Hell, I don't even know if he wants to be with me in the first place. Maybe he just thought it would be cool to hang out with someone. I mean I was the only person there not obsessing over him." I started ranting.
"Oh quit over thinking. Even if he doesn't want you he might be a good friend to have. You really need to be more out there Jen. It's not good for you to stay cooped up in your apartment all day." She said looking at me sincerely. I just shook my head slightly.
"Maybe tomorrow."
------------------------------------------------------------------
A couple days passed and I still haven't texted Tom. I really didn't know if I wanted to hang out with a complete stranger, especially a famous one. Lexi tried to get me to text him multiple times but I told her that if it was really meant to be another sign would pop up. I was time for work so this time I actually got out of bed and got ready. I looked down at my arms and then to my phone.
'Congrats! 3 days self-harm free'
My phone is obnoxious with these messages but it did make me feel slightly happier that I haven't hurt myself in a while. As I was getting ready to leave I tried looking for something to cover up my arms. I can't wear jackets to work so I had to put on a long sleeve shirt. I was finally ready to go and I headed out the door.
I opened up the doors and let my regulars in like always. The day went painfully slow until around 4 o'clock when a certain dirty blonde came into the bar. When he saw me he gave a little smile and sat down in the seat right across from where I was standing.
"What can I do for you today Mr. Felton?" I asked with a smirk. He shook his head and chuckled.
"Can I have a beer of your choosing and maybe a text?" He asked me. I laughed and poured him his beer.
"Well Mr. Felton, I have been very busy lately." I lied.
"Please Jenna, call me Tom. and by the looks of this place... you haven't been very busy."
"Well Mr. Fel--- Tom, I am sorry that I never texted you. I am new to meeting and becoming friends with people. I don't do it often."
"Well when do you get off?"
"8..."I replied.
"Well then I will pick you up at 8 tonight and we will go have a drink somewhere. How does that sound?"
"Splendid."
