Skinny Love - Newtmas

Chapter Nine

"Newt. Newt?" Groaning I open my eyes and see Thomas looking down at me, he chuckles, "surprised to see me?" He asks gently.

"Yeah," I smile and sit up. "We fell asleep last night." He says, tilting his head to the side.

"What time is it?"

"Class starts in twenty minutes, I thought you'd want to wake up a little early."

Running my hands through my hair I smile at Thomas, "Thanks Tommy. Where's Minho?" He returns the smile and gets off the bed, "I don't know," he pauses. "You can borrow a shirt if you want."

I blush at the thought of changing in front of him but nod, "sure." I smile.

Thomas grabs a blue plaid button up and tosses it to me, "is that one okay?" He asks. "Yeah great! Thanks."

Swinging my legs off the bed I step aside, making sure my back is to Thomas and quickly slip off my shirt. Behind me I hear Thomas sitting on the bed. Shrugging on Thomas's shirt (which is slightly too big) I button the bottom few buttons then turn around as I button the last couple. Looking up I see Thomas staring at me, his mouth slightly agape. His eyes flit up to mine and a blush rises on my cheeks.

Thomas stands up and walks over so he's right in front of me. Lightly brushing his lips against mine he pulls my closer before he full on kisses me. Wrapping my arms around his waist I forget about everything except the feel of Thomas's mouth on mine.

Breaking away for a moment I pull back and look at Thomas who has a small smile on his face and a hint of a blush on his cheeks. Laughing a little I pull Thomas close, but this time not for a kiss. Hugging Thomas I mumble into his hair, "I have to go to class," Thomas holds me tighter. "Not yet," he murmurs.

We stay like this for a moment before I back away, "I have to go but I'll see you after okay?" He nods and kisses me quickly. "See you later, I actually have class soon too." Nodding and kissing him one last time I take all my books and rush out the door.

During class I kept sneaking and texting Thomas.

Me: I'm going to the library after class. Meet me?

Quietly putting my phone back in my pocket and picking back up my pencil I attempt to take notes but I honestly have no idea what the lesson is even about today.

"Okay class, I'll hope to see you all tomorrow!" The professor calls out. Everyone gathers their things and starts to file out of the large room. Looking down at my notebook I see that I only wrote down two things that I don't even understand.

Sighing I stand and nod to the professor, "see you tomorrow," I say. "Newton can I see you for a moment!" He calls after me. Nervously I turn around and walk back to him. "Yes sir?"

"Newton. Ever since you entered my class you have done a fabulous job on all your assignments."

"Thank you sir." I smile sheepishly.

"But...the last week or so your grades have plummeted drastically, when things like this happen we like to make sure that the student isn't having any personal issues causing you not to do well in my class. So is everything okay Newton?" My heart drops, I know why my grades suck. Thomas. I've been spending all my time with him and haven't been studying at all.

"No sir...I'm sorry. I'll try to do better." He sighs and straightens up some papers.

"Okay Newton. I'm going to take your word, but there are student advisories you can talk to if you need." Nodding I say a quiet good-bye and walk out the door.

Running to the library I pause to catch my breath before I walk inside. Being careful to stay quietly I rush to my usual spot to talk to Thomas. "Hey Newt!" I look over and see Rachel behind her desk. "Rachel hi, how have you been?" I ask, not wanting to be rude but itching to get to Thomas. "Real good, where have you been? You used to be in here everyday!"

"Well...I've just been a bit busy. Ya know?" I smile and my eyes flick over to my table, I see Thomas sitting there playing on his phone. "Really?" She smirks at me. "Does is have anything to do with a rather attractive boy sitting over there waiting for you?"

I can feel my face heating up, "no! Well...maybe, yeah." I laugh nervously and look over at Thomas, smiling.

"I'm happy for you Newt," she smiles, patting my shoulder. "See you soon I hope." Saying a quick goodbye I walk over to my table. Just as I'm about to greet Thomas a girl runs up to us. "Hi Thomas!" She says, smiling so wide it looks painful.

Looking at her I don't even try to hide my confusion. Thomas looks up and sees us, she stands next to me, her hands on the table, leaning forward so Thomas can see down her shirt.

"Uh hi..." He trails off, flashing me a quick look. Shrugging we both look back at her. "My name is Sonya, you probably don't know me but I've seen you in class and I just wanted to say..." She digs in her pocket and hands Thomas a crumpled piece of paper. "If you ever want to hang out just call me." He smiles wide and looks at him expectantly.

"Oh wow...that's awfully nice Sonya but..." He looks at me and I can't tell he's trying not to smile. "I would call you but I'm gay so...I'm really sorry you seem like a really sweet girl." He winces when her face drops.

"Oh my god I'm sorry. I'm sorry bye." She stammers before she scampers away and Thomas looks at me.

"Damn I feel bad now," he folds the paper with her number and sets it on the table. Sighing he looks up at me.

I walk around the table and plop down next to him. "Well...she was going to find out sooner or later."

"I guess...I thought it was pretty obvious though." We both laugh and Rachel shushes us but when Thomas turns away she smiles and winks at me.
