I wave at Elliot as he pulls the iconic TUA cast minivan into the hotel's driveway. I open the door and climb into the passenger seat.

"No Alexandra?" 

"Nah, she's avoiding Aidan I think."

"Ah."

We drive to the restaurant in a comfortable silence, not bothering to blast Mother Mother or Green Day. Elliot parks right in front of the place and we exit the van.

"We both know what David' gonna say so you might as well just go over now." Elliots nudges me and points to Aidan, who's sitting alone on a separate table. 

Sometimes I feel bad for him... But it's so funny when David let's Aidan argue back.

"Ah, y/n! About time! Now, you know the rules. Kiddies table's over there." David says, pushing me slightly towards Aidan's lonely table.

"hi, n/n. Welcome to the 'Kids eat free' table." 

"David, unless you're joining us, I suggest you leave." David backs off and heads back to the 'Adults' table.

"Well, at least the food's free!" I wave one of the waiters over and ask to order.

"Coffee. Aidan?"

"Just the coffee."

"Bring him some kind of fruit will ya?" I whisper to the waiter, who nods and scurries off to whoever was in charge. 

"Fruit? Really?"

"Well, I'm not gonna make David buy you a steak for it to just sit there! And I won't eat it either."

"Fair enough."  We sit in a comfortable silence, waiting for someone to come back with coffee. 

"You got plans later?" 

WHY DID I ASK HIM THAT? WHY DO I CARE? Y/N SHUT YOUR BRAIN OFF!

"Yeah. Studio's making me cut my hair. Why?" 

"WHAT? NO! Your hair is like, your only likeable quality!" 

"My what- Are you only trying to befriend me so you can braid my hair?" 

"Pfft, no..." 

YES 

"I will not let them murder your hair." I lean in closer and move Aidan's head about an inch away from mine.

"What're you doing?"

"Promise me. You will not let them murder your hair." 

"It was in the contract. I signed so I gotta let 'em cut it." I leaned back and let go of Aidans head. 

"Fine. Just make sure it's not in the contract next time. Or I burn everyone with this puppy." I rummage through my pant's pocket and pull out the cigarette lighter I found when I was eight. 

"Wanna see?" I toss the lighter at Aidan, only for him to yelp and lean a little too far left. Just as the lighter was gonna hit him, he fell out of his chair. And he still hasn't noticed I secretly braided his hair. 

"Don't do that, n/n!" Aidan shouts at me from the floor. I try to apologise to him Aidan but it was so hard in between laughs. Someone had already left my coffee on the table with us noticing, so I took my chance to down the whole cup at once.  

I really wanna go ask for the security tapes now.

"Right, children we're leaving!" David yells at us from across the room, making everyone stare at either him or us. Aidan and I get up and walk over to the 'adult' cast members. 

"Nice hair, Aidan." Emmy says, pointing at his hair, which I successfully braided. 

"n/n, how dare you!" 

That's my cue to start running!

Aidan chases me to the minivan, climbing into the backseat when Elliot unlocks the door. 

"n/n, you wanna sit up front?" Elliot asks e as Ii limb into the backseat with Aidan.

"Nah, I'm alright here." David opens the passenger door and takes his seat next to Elliot. 

"Tom , pass this to y/n." David hands Tom the connecter for the car and he passes back to me. I connect my phone to the van and open Spotify. Before I can play anything, Aidan snatches my phone and looks up something. 

"Hey!" 

"Shh, lemme find it." Aidan presses a few buttons and a song comes through the car.

Of course he's gonna play his own song.

I felt my phone vibrate and hear Aidan's very loud loud text-tone go off. 

Turn it down, you idiot!

Aidan taps my shoulder and hands me his phone.

"Shit."

Aidan Gallagher and y/n l/n seen together at a restaurant in Toronto. First date perhaps?

@y/n-l/n's-here

@aidanrgallagher✔️


Well, the picture doesn't help. The paparazzi must have sent Netflix HQ this. 

The image is Aidan and I, when I was secretly braiding his hair. Only from this angle, it doesn't look like that at all.

Shit, Alex's gonna see this.

"y/n, can you change the song please?"

"Shut up David."
