[9/29/21]

let's go almost spooky month :3

"Wilbur?"

"Y/n?"

Wilbur smiles at her, and she smiles back at him.

"Wait- do you guys know each other?" Tommy questions.

"Yeah, we met at a cafe the other day!" Wilbur says happily; Y/n nods in confirmation at his words.

"Well it's not all about you, Wilbur," The shorter man with dark brown hair adds before walking up to Y/n, hand outstretched. "Hi I'm George, nice to meet you,"

"Nice to meet you too," She passes the camera to Tommy so she can introduce herself properly. "I'm Y/n,"

The blonde man comes up to her next, smiling warmly at her. "I'm Phil,"

"Old man!" Tommy calls in the background, earning him an elbow in the side from Wilbur.

"Nice to meet you too, Phil," Y/n tells him after shaking his hand as well.

"My name's Kristin," The raven-haired woman approaches her. Y/n gasps slightly in surprise.

"Are you American?" She whispers.

"Yes," Kristin smiles happily at her.

The younger girl claps her hands excitedly before giving Kristin a hug, which is eagerly returned by the receiver.

"Good, everyone here is friends now I guess," Tommy remarks. "Now can we go shopping please? I need new stuff,"

"Like what?" Y/n asks as she's handed the camera again to film.

"I dunno, whatever makes me look good,"

"We aren't going to find anything then," George snickers.

"Very funny George, I'm glad your new job as a comedian is working out," Tommy glares at him as the sarcastic tone escapes his lips. "Anyway, let's go this way first,"

"Has he always been like this?" Wilbur asks Y/n quietly. "When you would babysit him, I mean,"

"Unfortunately yes," She replies with an amused smile. "Nothing's really changed. Tommy has always been Tommy,"

"Guys they have creeper plushies in this store!" Tommy yells excitedly from up ahead.

Y/n and Wilbur exchange glances of amusement.

After they film the majority of the needed footage for the vlog, everyone splits off into their own little groups to do some side-shopping. Y/n ends up going with Kristin to Hot Topic.

(a/n: do they have those in england? idk)

She enjoys talking with Kristin. It was nice to hear her own accent for a while, even though they were just having small talk.

"So Y/n, are you seeing anyone?" Her friend asks after a while.

Y/n lets out a small laugh. "No, I haven't dated since my freshman year of college,"

"Really?" Kristin says in disbelief.

"Yes, "really"," She replies with a grin. "I spend all my time at home for my job,"

"But you did meet Wilbur on your own," Kristin points out teasingly. "What do you think about him?"

"What? No, we're just friends," Y/n says a bit too quickly. "Plus I just meet him, I hardly know the guy,"
