Thomas tapped his food nervously against the wooden floorboard of his kitchen, he was waiting for Newt to arrive and knock on the front door any second now. Thomas had never been nervous about a boy coming over or a girl even. He wanted the night to go perfectly.

What if he thinks I'm trying too hard?

Maybe he just wants to be friends?

The almost-kiss could have been a one-off

Maybe Thomas was a fuck and shuck to Newt

These thoughts raced around Thomas's head, making his heart beat erratically and his forehead shine with small drops of sweat. Thomas didn't know why Newt made him feel so safe like he could tell the boy anything and not have to worry about being judged. Thomas wasn't a big relationship person of course he's dated girls before or fucked them before never talking to them again. Thomas didn't realise he was attracted to the same gender until he laid eyes on Newt his body had never reacted that way for somebody girl or boy, it scared him.

A loud banging on the door filled the large space making Thomas jump. He slowly got up to open the door not wanting to make himself seem too desperate, even though he was. Once he opened it Newt stood in a black jacket and black jeans fiddling with his thumbs nervously.

"Are you going to invite me in? or keep staring" Newt asked smirking

"Depends are you a vampire?" Thomas joked eyeing Newt up and down liking the boy's outfit

"Obviously" Newt lied, Thomas moved out of the way letting Newt walk past him as he shut the door. "Now what are we doing?"

"Cooking cupcakes" Thomas smiled pulling ingredients off the shelves and placing them down on the bench.

"You cook?" Newt asked admiring the boy who was placing flour into a bowl the powder covering his face and staining his cheeks with a light white.

"Yes Newt I do cook, mostly because it's the only way to take care of Chuck my mum's out drinking most of the time" Thomas slightly smiled, "Have you ever cooked something"

"Does putting fast food in a microwave count?" Newt joked making Thomas roll his eyes

Newt got up helping the brunette roll the cookies out on a tray before slipping them into the hot oven steaming air warming up the cold room. Once the two cleaned up Thomas decided to throw the soap from the sink at Newt which turned into a whole water fight making the kitchen covered in bubbles and small puddles of water which they cleaned up.

"Where's Chuck?" Newt asked noticing the chubby boy hadn't come down yet

"With my grandparents, it's easier if they take care of him for the next 2 months with the state my mum is in it's not safe anymore" Thomas said taking the cookies out of the oven and placing them on the bench.

"Don't you hate being alone for so long?" Newt asked grabbing one of the hot cookies and breaking it in half the chocolate spilling out before placing one half in his mouth and giving the other to Thomas.
