Love Birds.

My phone rings from my dresser. I rush to grab it before it turns to voicemail. I smile looking at the contact name. I immediately press answer. "Hi, Tommy!" "Hey, I'm outside your door." I pull the phone from my ear, confused. "Why didn't you just knock?" "Um-" He cuts himself off, hanging up on me. I grow even more confused at his behavior. A loud knock sounds throughout my apartment and I smile.

Fucking dumbass. I make the short walk to my door, opening it with a smirk. Tommy huffs and lets himself in, colliding with my shoulder to knock me out of the way. "Don't look at me like that, woman." I turn to look at him. He stands tall hands on his hips, leaning his weight on one leg. His head tilts and he smirks. "My neck hurts from looking down at you," I roll my eyes at his comment. 

"What do you want?" I say, biting the inside of my cheek to stop myself from smiling. "My friends want to meet you," He breaks eye contact and lifts a hand to the back of his head nervously. I perk up, "Online?" He brings his gaze back down to mine, "Yeah, but Will, will be there in person." I snort, "Will is a funny name." Tommy breaks into laughter. "I'm going to tell him you said that." he brings his hand down to grab mine and all but drags me out the door. 

"Where are we going?" Tommy looks back to me and smiles. "Wills office."

We reach the previously mentioned location and Tommy knocks on Wills door. I suddenly grow quiet, I wanted Tommy's friends to like me. Tommy puts an ear to the door when Will doesn't answer. Tommy's eyes grow wide and he pulls me away from the door to the one next to it. "Wrong one," He mumbles, I burst into a loud laughter all my nerves disappearing. The door in front of us opens at the first knock. 

A rather tall man comes into view and Tommy smiles. "Will!" He says bringing the man into an awkward side hug. "Alright, Tommy, I'm not here for you." He says peeling Tommy off of him. Tommy gasps, "What you mean you want her and not me." Tommy says putting emphasis on "her". Will simply nods and motions for me to come in. Tommy stands, flabbergasted. "You can sit here, Iris." Will says pointing to a chair in front of a desk. 

Tommy huffs and walks in the door. "Are they all in the call?" He asks Will who hums in reply. Tommy walks over to me, "Okay, do you want to stream this or not?" I shake my head no. I'm not ready for the internet. "So if we just press this button they'll be able to hear you through the mic and we can hear them through these headphones." Tommy places a pair of headphones tenderly over my ears and I swear I heard Will "Aww," 

Once Tommy presses the button I hear a bunch of voices screaming and laughing. Will walks over and grabs a pair of headphones for himself. Tommy clears his throat and all the voices quiet before screaming again. "Is she here?!" One asks and I turn to Tommy pointing at myself in a question manner. Instead of answering me he turns to the mic and says, "She's here, but quiet down. Your voices are all jumbled." 

The voices comply and one by one they introduce themselves. I zone out momentarily and just watch as Tommy laughs at the jokes they make and shoots back with his own. I zone back in when the attention is brought to me. Tommy looks at me worriedly, "Are you alright?" He asks. I nod, "Yeah, sorry. Just zoned out for a second." Will laughs at my star-struck expression. Tommy turns to him, "What?" 

Will shakes his head and looks to the ground, "Nothing," Tommy rolls his eyes and looks back to the computer facing him. "Boys what do you say we play some Minecraft?" At this point most people had left. The five remaining people included Dream (Tommy didn't seem to like him very much), Quackity (He kept claiming to be Mexican Dream and asked if my mother was single), Tubbo (Tommy's bestfriend), Ranboo ( Tommy wasn't quite fond of him either) and Phil. 

"No you cant swim in lava!" Tommy screams as I jump into the lava to grab my items. A chat in the bottom left corner informs me that I've been changed to creative. When I don't die in the lava I look to Tommy, "Yeah I can." Dream begins to wheeze and Tommy throws his hands in the air. "Dream put you in creative!" I cross my arms over my chest, "So?" The call bursts into laughter at my snide reply. 

"Its cheating!" I roll my eyes and unclasp my arms turning back to the game "He was just helping a girl out. It isn't cheating if its for a good cause." My words are slurred with tiredness. Tommy picks up on this, "We're going to leave now, bye guys." Everyone else says their "goodbye" 's including me and Tommy walks me home. I turn to face him when we reach my front door. "Thanks, Tommy." 

Tommy smiles and engulfs me in his arms. "Sleep well, Iris." With that Tommy lets go and walks away glancing back at me before making his descent down the stairs. I close my apartment door and slide down it. This boy.
