Real life

As she put her phone down she started thinking back to the kiss. It was about 10 am and Julie had to get ready for breakfast with the group and with Francis. She snapped out of her thoughts, looking down at her phone, wondering if Tom would text her to apologize or to talk about the kiss. She didn't know why she did it. She had been wanting to but why didn't she wait until after the movie premieres and the interviews. She was starting to overthink it all but knowing Tom he'd probably reassure her and give her one of those charming smiles where his gaze softened. He was so adorable in her eyes. She snapped out of her thoughts again and groaned in frustration towards herself "Stop it..." she went over to her suitcase, picking out an outfit for today and got her makeup started.

As she made her way down to the lobby she felt her phone vibrate. Her eyes widened seeing toms iMessage name pop up. He had told her to turn around causing her to frown slightly. She did as she was told and spotted him. She didn't know whether to be happy or embarrassed. Tom being Tom gave her a warm smile and went up to her hugging her and accidentally messing her hair "Oops sorry" he chuckles and fixed it causing Jules cheeks to heat up.

"It's okay... How.. uh was the hangover?" She couldn't help but feel awkward and wondered if he did too.

"I actually woke up great" he said as he rested his hand on the small of her back, walking with her. "Did you have a headache or feel sick?" He asked curiously, slightly worried, hoping she wouldn't be sick

She shook her head "No no I was just wondering because you had a lot to drink" she reminded, wanting to see if he remembered anything. They were adults why couldn't she just ask straight up?

"I did.. but I had a lot of water afterwards did you think I drove here drunk?" He chuckled lightly, knowing what she probably meant. He stopped walking and pulled her aside gently. He looked down at her, his gaze was intense but sweet. "If you're wondering about the kiss... I meant it. But if you don't then I understand and we'll put it behind us" He reassured, seeing Rachel and Josh coming over. His face lit up "Hey guys"
