Okay, this is awkward. Thorpe thought to himself. He was surrounded by people he hadn't seen in 2 years and weren't particularly fond of him. The only thing that wasn't making him uncomfortable was being back in New York. He missed the bustling atmosphere and walking everywhere. Florida was full of old people and rain. At least the old people here are fabulous and it doesn't rain that often.
"(y/n/n) thank you so much for brunch but Bo and I gotta bounce. His Abuela has been expecting him all day." Marshall patted him on the back.
"Yup, she's waiting for her grandson to help bake some pastries." Bo nodded. "It was a pleasure seeing all of you again."
Everyone hugged and said goodbye.
"Yes, I also promised Kiko I would show her around New York." Kristen took one last sip of her coffee. "We will be going too."
"What? Kris, you've been here like 5 times. Let me show you and Kiko around New York." (y/n) offered.
"I'll help too." Tristen clasped his hands. "It's been a while since I've been here. I'd love to explore the city."
"If all of you are going I guess I better join too." Luke smiled. "(y/n), is it ok if I set up my luggage in your guest room?"
Rose patted him on the head and whispered to Francois to help her bring up the guests' luggages to the different rooms of the house.
"Are we ready to go?" (y/n) asked.
...........
The gang started by visiting Central Park for a stroll in the park. Kiko has an eye for photography and adores taking pictures, Kristen likes nature, and Luke like wandering off, and well, that leaves the two ex-lovers.
"So! How's Florida?" (y/n) started. Jesus, why do I sound so perky? I know about Florida and it is not that exciting.
"It's good, yeah. Very different from New York. Disney World is pretty cool. My cousin dragged me there." Thorpe shrugged and dragged his hand across the bushes.
"How old is your cousin?" She chuckled.
"23" Tristan mumbled.
"Did you have fun on the teacup ride?"
"Me? No. The teacup ride makes me sick. With all the spinning and churros that I ate I would've projectile vomited everywhere."
Why do I like hearing about him almost vomiting?
Thorpe realized what he was talking about and pursed his lips. "I'm not sure why I started talking about vomit. That's gross. Please excuse my behavior."
Oh my god, what is wrong with me.
(y/n) chuckled and touched his arm. "You are such a dork. Please excuse my behavior." She recited in a posh British accent. "Dude, we're friends, you can be normal around me."
Tristan looked down at her and sighed. "How's working at the jewelry store?"
"Oh! So cool! You should see the kind of deals I'm making. People are calling me saying 'give me this at a better price!' and I'm like if you want this pure amethyst ring at a better price maybe you should mine it yourself. Some people do not understand the principles of negotiation." (y/n) scoffed.
"(y/n)! Roy? Roy where are you I'm lost." Luke called from around the corner.
"Turn around, deemweet." Kristen barked.
"Oh." he scratched his neck. "Hey."
The gang walked into a crowd, blabbering on about their professors giving them work over the break and parents being annoying and new interests.
