Tommy was sulking when Salem got home. he had spent the day at the apartment with Briony and Wilbur while she was out. the second she walked into their room, Tommy looked up with a pout on his lips.
"how was your day with Caleb?" Tommy mumbled.
Salem couldn't help but chuckle at his clear irritation. she knew Tommy didn't like all the time she was spending with Caleb but it wasn't like there wasn't always other people there. he only disliked it because the one time he had hung out with Caleb, Caleb made a joke about his hair.
"jealousy isn't a good look on you, Tom." Salem sighed, hanging up her jacket.
Tommy frowned as Salem sat down beside him on the bed. he instantly wrapped an arm around her and she leaned in him, her head laying on his shoulder. Tommy smiled slightly at that.
"i just missed you." Tommy huffed, "he's taking up all your time."
"we have the same friends and you know that. plus his dad has been helping me film my music video. i can't just not see him." Salem explained.
"i know. sorry." Tommy murmured.
Salem looked up and smiled, "don't apologise. i promise i'll try make more time for you. you have nothing to worry about."
Tommy just nodded and Salem leaned over to quickly kiss him. the boy grinned and wrapped his arms around her. Salem playfully rolled her eyes and buried her face in his chest.

Tommy was reading the messages over Salem's shoulder. he did feel bad for Caleb but also was annoyed that he tried to get Salem to be his date knowing she was with Tommy. but Tommy tried not to get jealous, knowing Salem had confirmed she only wanted him.
"i'll stop hanging out with him if it's makes you uncomfortable." Salem spoke up, knowing Tommy saw the messages. "i would understand with how weird it would make things."
"no. i trust you." Tommy said.
Salem couldn't help but smile slightly, she kissed Tommy on the cheek. the blonde blushed and looked down at the floor. Salem liked the way he still got nervous around her.
"i love you." Salem reminded.
Tommy rested his head on hers, moving to hold onto her hand, "i love you too, idiot."
