Tom x Jake || Disventure camp

Normal day?.. || Part one

(I made the cute image above✌️)

(Jakes POV)

It was hard getting used to my regular life again after the show. It was genuinely overwhelming to think about what I did to Tom and how I was the reason he got out... Ugh, I should just stop thinking about it.. it's too overwhelming.

It's not worth thinking about.. It's the past.. ugh.. but it's so hard to forget about it! I still like him.. but... what I did to him was wrong.. I hope he doesn't hate me..

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This morning I walked to my shift at the cafe Miriam owned. The soon was shining, it was actually a really nice day for once. I perked up as I heard my phone beep.

As I walked into the cafe I opened my phone and saw that Miriam texted me. It turns out that she had to go for a doctors appointment for her back pain. I felt slightly worried for her but she said it was nothing big.

(On text)

Miriam: Jake, I won't be there all day, can you stay an hour longer and lock up?

Jake: Yeah, no worries Miriam :)
Good luck, tell me what happens :D

Miriam: Thanks Jake. I'll see you tomorrow. Oh, by the way, I left some cupcakes for you as a thanks, your favourite, the blueberry icing ones.

Jake: Omg, thanks Miriam!! I'll give some to Ashley!

Miriam: No worries Jake, I'll see you.

Jake: Bye Miriam! :)  Remember to stay safe!!

I put my phone in my pocket and walked behind the counter. I put on my apron and tied my hair up. Luckily, the store wasn't the busiest place on Wednesdays so it was pretty chill.

I still kept thinking about Tom and... You know what, it doesn't matter, I should focus more on working.

I was just cleaning the counter until I heard someone walk in. I looked up and saw... Tom?!

(Toms POV)

After the show, I genuinely have been feeling overwhelmed. I knew I shouldn't have lashed out at Jake but... What? Why am I still thinking about that? Ugh, whatever..

After my shift at the police station, I was kind of hungry so I decided to go to the new cafe that just opened, plus it looked really cute and there weren't any lines.

I parked my car a few minutes down and hopped out and started walking over. The weather wasn't actually like the usual, cloudy, windy vibe. It was really nice and warm.

As I entered, I peered over towards the counter and stopped dead in place: I froze up. I realised that it was Jake, his dark blue hair and his beautiful black eyes.. I mean... His black eyes.. Yeah, yeah..

I walked over to the counter through the cafe. It was really nice. It had a lot of plants and it was mainly green. I looked at Jake and spoke to him.

Tom: "Erm.. Hi there..."

Jake genuinely looked kinda shocked to see me, there was also a tinge of.. sadness and anxiety, in his eyes. He responded weakly.

Jake: "H-hi, what can I uhh.. get you?"

I ordered a coffee and a blueberry muffin and waited for it to be ready. The awkward silence hung in the air.
I looked around at all the cafe decor. It was really cozy.

(Jakes POV)

The silence was terribly awkward. I just kinda stirred in the milk and put a cool design on the top. I also added some sugar, I remember from the show that Tom liked sugar in his coffee.. Wait what. Whatever.

I walked over back to the counter from the coffee machine and handed him the coffee and went back to package his muffin.

Jake: "H-here's your order.."

I passed him the paper bag and coffee. Our hands made contact for a little too long until I pulled back, a light blush on my cheeks.

Tom also looked a bit more red on the face. He said his goodbyes and left. Oh my days... that was even more awkward than before...
