Nothing Matters But You (tomblyth)

Chapter 16

I know it's been a while sorry girlies i lost motivation but I'm back now)

Real life

As the pair walked down the streets of Berlin they finally arrived to the hotel. She was wondering what he was thinking and if they should talk about the kiss or not. Julie stepped into the elevator and looked over at Tom "Hey... so you said earlier we should talk about what happened... and I think we should too but maybe not right now.. just in case we don't agree and it makes things awkward.. I don't want it to affect our relationship and our interviews" she said hoping he'd understand

Tom smiles a bit as he listened to her, looking down into her eyes "whatever you think is for the best I agree with... I'll be waiting just know that" he smiled softly and leaned down, kissing her forehead before the elevator doors opened. He let her get out first and walked her down to her room. He got where she was coming from but this made him nervous. What if she didn't actually feel anything for him and she just kissed him because she was drunk? He actually felt something for her. As they reached Julie's door he looked down at her and smiled softly "Goodnight Jules" He kissed her cheek and hugged her before pulling away

Julie felt her cheeks heating up. She nodded "Night Tommy" She opened her hotel room door and got in, waving bye and closing the door behind her as she let out a small sigh. She knew there was no getting over him if he did reject her when they talked about the kiss but also why would he reject her if he was the one waiting. She was glad there was no actress he was dating and it was just the press. As she started doing her skincare routine she heard her phone vibrate causing her to frown. She looked down at her phone, her eyes widening when she saw Dacres name. It was clear he was drunk texting her because most of his texts didn't make sense. She sighed heavily and finished her skincare routine, patting her face with a clean cloth. She put her phone on do not disturb and went to bed, not wanting to deal with Dacre.

It was the next day. Finally they'd be starting their interviews she had super excited about these and possibly meeting fans of them and of the books. She got up had a small breakfast because she didn't want to look bloated or anything and she let in the hairstylists and the makeup artist. She had her outfit laid out in the bed. She looked down at her phone, seeing Dacres message, tempted to check but didn't. She sighed softly and greeted everyone who'd be helping her out. She went to the hotel bathroom and they started working on her makeup and hair. As they worked on her makeup she couldn't stop thinking about her conversation with Tom yesterday. He was so understanding and such a gentleman she knew she didn't deserve him but she couldn't get away from him either. As they finished up her makeup she thanked them and gushed over how good they made her look. She took a few pictures for instagram later and texted the group chat, wondering if everyone was ready.

Real life

As the time got closer to leave Juliette started getting more nervous. She was always nervous when it came to press and interviews, afraid she might say the wrong thing and they'd come for her not to mention her conversation with Tom. She hoped it wouldn't be awkward because she would hate that. They were really good friends she was just scared it wouldn't work and they would just be better as friends but she couldn't lie to herself she had already written a song about him and had 100 ideas for another lover album but she wasn't sure. She didn't want to mess up again and be humiliated. As the elevator opened to the lobby she saw the trio waiting for her. She smiled happily and hugged Rachel "you look like a little doll"

Rachel squealed and hugged her back "and you look like a goddess like no joke. Right Tom?" She smirked softly, Tom visibly flustered

"No uh yeah she looks..." he looked at her, admiring how good she looked "she looks gorgeous"

Josh smirked slightly and shared a look with Rachel, unsure why they made things hard for each other when it was obvious they liked each other.

Julie's eyes widened when she heard Rachel but soon her gaze softened when he said she looked gorgeous "Thank you, you guys look good too but I don't think better than me and Rachel" she smirks slightly, trying to keep it playful

Josh scoffed and crossed his arms "Hey, I gave this fit my all"

Tom chuckled and looked at them "I saw a mirror back there we should take the pictures there"

Juliette nodded "yesss you're right, let's goo" she grabbed Rachel's hand and walked down to the mirror with them. Once everyone was ready they took like two serious pictures and the rest the girls did funny faces which Tom could be seen looking directly at Julie and smiling.

Rachel smiled happily "alright send them to me pleasee"

Julie nodded "I'll send them in the group chat now let's go before Francis gets upset" she said knowing he always wanted them to be punctual
