(Skipping to the interview day)

Natalia's POV

Thomas and I are pretty close now. We're like siblings or something. He's really sweet, cocky sometimes, but sweet.

I put on my dress and brush my hair. I effing shaved my legs for this.

"Ms. Renback?"

"Yes?"

"Would you like to have someone do your hair?"

"No thank you." I French braid my hair half way and put it in a ponytail. Then I braid the rest of my hair and put it up in a messy bun.

I put on a pair of cream Toms. Ready.

Knock knock knock

"Come in." Thomas comes in.

"Ready? By the way, you look beautiful."

I blush and nod. "As I'll ever be. And, thanks."

"Good. Because you're up first and we're starting soon. Oh, and Dylan O'Brien came to watch, would you like to meet him afterwards?"

"Sure."

"Now come on." I follow him out of my dressing room onto the set. "Natalia, this is Stacy. She's doing the interview." He motions to a blonde lady in a coat and pencil skirt.

She looks like Jeanine Matthews.

"Nice to meet you, Stacy."

"Likewise." She smiles. "Are you ready?"

"Yes."

"Good. Thomas get off the stage!" He runs off.

"We're on in three... two..."

The audience claps. "Hello everyone, I'm Stacy. And today, we have two very special guests. First, Natalia Renback!" She motions to me and the audience claps again. "And later, the one and only, Thomas Brodie-Sangster! Now, Natalia, introduce yourself and why your here."

"Well, Stacy, I'm doing a foreign exchange student program, and ended up staying with Thomas."

"Why did you sign up for this program?"

"Well, I live in a very small town, and this was a way out."

"How did you feel when you found out you were staying with Thomas?"

"Surprised. And ever so slightly star struck. I mean, he plays my favorite character in my favorite show."

"Jojen in Game of Thrones?"

"No, Ferb from Phineas and Ferb."

She laughs. But I'm serious. "Well, Natalia. Thomas told me you play piano. Would you mind?" A spotlight points to a piano in the corner.

"It would be a pleasure." I go over and the lights dim, there's only a spotlight on me. I start to play Soul Sister.

Suddenly, someone starts playing along and another spot light goes over to the source of the sound.

Thomas.

He starts singing the song. Oh my God. He's doing this for me, that's why he told Stacy I can play. He knew I would play this song.

I start crying tears of happiness. He finishes the song and comes over.

"I want the world to see you with me." The songs over. Why'd he say that? He gets down on one knee. "Natalia Renback, will you be my girlfriend?"

Thomas' POV

I'm sweating, my heart is racing. Please say yes.

"I-I... I will! Of course!" I stand up and she jumps into my arms. She cries tears of happiness (hopefully) into my shoulder.

"You said yes."

Stacy claps and everyone in the audience stands and claps and whistles.

"Alright you two, come over here." We walk over and sit next to each other.

"Did he tell you about this, Stacy?"

"Yeah. He planned it out quite well."

Natalia punches me. "You..!"

"Deserve that. I know." We continue the interview flawlessly.

When it's over, we go meet Dylan in the audience. He pats my back.

"Hey, I'm Dylan."

"Natalia." She sticks out her hand but Dylan pulls her into a hug.

"You know Tommy here has been planning this since your first day of school?"

"No, I had absolutely no clue."

"Yeah, he's had a BIG crush on you." I blush.

"I knew about that part." She and Dylan smirk.

"Well you two go home. Get some rest."

I lead Natalia out to the car and we go home. When we get there I grab a book. She goes upstairs and changes into pajamas.

She plops down on the couch next to me. We sit so we're facing each other with are books in between us.

She puts on her glasses. I just watch the little things she does while reading. She fidgets a bit. She purses her lips and bites them. She sticks a finger on her top lip and pushes it up so it wrinkles her nose. She strokes her bottom lip deep in thought.

"Little tease." I mutter.

"What?" She never takes her eyes of her book. I put her bookmark in and shut the book. "Hey-!" I crash my lips into hers. Her eyes get wide then she starts to kiss me back.

Her lips are soft and taste like caramel. She's a good kisser. She moves and sits in my lap. She runs her fingers through my hair.

I feel something on her lip. I pull away. "What's that?"

"Sometime I chew through my lip. I always wake up looking like you on the cover of My Left Hand Man."

"Oh shut up."

We go back to kissing. It's slow and sweet. I pull her closer. Soon our kiss becomes faster. After a bit she pulls back and our foreheads touch.

"You're a good kisser, Natalia."

"Funny, I've never kissed anyone before."

"I'm your first kiss?"

"Yes, I'm quite lucky, aren't I? You aren't too bad yourself."

"I'm glad I'm your first kiss."

"Me too."

WOOOOOO!!! Oh yeah! He did it! Good job Thomas!
