"Tell me about yourself!" he said. Oh god, he really wanted to know stuff about me! Don't mess this up, Mary!

"Well, I'm here in London because I wanted to travel somewhere alone, and I live in Southhampton, so it's not so far. My parents actually wanted me to go here, because they wanted me to do something fun and make new friends and stuff. And I'll be staying here for two week."

"Nice, how is Southampton?" he asked.

"Uhm... Nice, I guess." Stupid, that sounded stupid! He smiled and asked me about my interests.

"I like to read", I said. "And update social medias...and bake and play the guitar." God, Mary, that sounds really boring. You told him about your interests, and they are FOUR!

"I also play the guitar! Are you good at it?"

"I don't know, a little maybe. I wish I could be as good as you!"

"Practice makes perfect", he said and we laughed a little. I was just going to say something, but my phone rang. I looked at the display; it was my mum.

"Excuse me", I said to Thomas. "I just gotta answer this." We stopped walking and I pressed the answer-button on my phone.

"Hello mum!"

"Mary! How are you? D'you like London?"

"I'm fine and London is nice."

"What are you doing?"

"Uhm...First I went to the Sherlock Holmes museum and then I got lost and Thomas Sangster helped me and now we are walking somewhere..."

"Wait, what?! Did Thomas SANGSTER help you? Oh god! Am I disturbing you?"

"Well, kind of..."

"Oh, goodbye then, honey", she said, and hung up.

I looked at Thomas and we started to walk again.

"Mary, how old are you? Just wondering."

"I'm 19", I answered. He nodded and smiled his heartmelting smile.

We kept on walking for what felt like hours. We talked about so much and it was the best thing that had happened to me. I thought.

"Why not take a cup of coffee?" he said when we passed a café. I thought it would be nice, even though I didn't like coffee, so we went in.

He ordered a cup of coffee and a cinnamon bun and I wanted a smoothie.

"Do you pay together or separately?" asked the woman who stood behind the counter.

"I'll pay for it", Thomas said.

"No, you won't!" I answered. "I'll pay for my smoothie!"

"No, you won't!" He smirked and put his credit card into the chip reader. He isn't just the cutest guy in the world, he is also so kind! I love him so much!!!

We sat down on a table, that was placed against a window. He drank his coffee and licked his lips. He was so cute and I tried to not fangirl. Apparently I didn't succeeded, because my mouth started to make weird sounds and my breathing was quite unstable. Thomas started to laugh and stared at me with a look that said 'What the hell are you doing, girl?'.

"Ugh...that was awkward...Can you just forget about this?" I said. "Can you just...Can you stop licking your lips?" Actually I didn't want him stop stop, but I didn't want t fangirl infront of him again, so I chose the safe way.

"Really?" He licked his lips. Damn it!

"No, just...Just stop it! Okay?" He licked his lips again. Was he flirting with me? No, he just wanted make make a fan happy. Of course he wasn't flirting with me. Of course he wasn't.

"Okay, just stop it!"

"Why?" he asked and smirked.

"Because you are so goddamn cute and I don't want to fangirl more infront of you. That's why."

"Okay then." He bit his lip. Oh my god he looked so sexy!

"You're hopeless!" I said and giggled.

"I know", he answered and winked.

15 minutes later we went out of the café in silence.

"Well..." I started, but he interrupted me.

"What's the name of your hotel? And on which street is it?"

I told him, and him smiled.

"Oh, I know where it is! It's not so far away. Let's go, then." Wait what? HE wanted to walk with ME to MY hotel. Oh, right, he wanted to check that I got back to my hotel and didn't got lost again. How thoughtful he is.

In less than ten minutes we were in front of my hotel. I wanted to say goodbye to him in a good way, but I din't know how. I didn't want to do something embarrassing again, at least not the (probably) last time I saw him.

"I-It was nice to meet you and-" I started but he silenced me.

"You aren't going to say goodbye yet, are you?"

"I-I'm not...no wait! Of course not!" He giggled and took my hand. Yea, he did!

"Come on, then!" He pulled me into the building. (WHAAAT!?). We took the elevator up to my room, which was on the fifth floor.

The elevator stopped and we walked out in the corridor. I stopped at door 528 and took out my keys from my bag and unlocked the door. Thomas went in. I didn't know what he wanted, but I hope he wanted the same thing that I wanted. Eww, Mary! Stop thinking those dirty thoughts!

I sat down on my bed while Thomas checked my room out. I didn't dare to say anything. I didn't even dare to breath, because I was afraid I would mess things up between us. I stood up and closed my eyes for a second and when I opened them, Thomas stood infront of me, staring into my eyes.

"Tommy, I-...", I said, but I didn't know how to finish the sentence, so I kissed him. And he kissed me back. His tongue explored my mouth and he pulled me closer. I pulled my fingers through his fluffy hair. Sparks flew around in my body. A wave of happiness reach my heart and it was enough for a whole life. I wanted that moment to last forever, and Thomas wanted that too, apparently, so we were just standing there and kissed each others, for what felt like years. But suddenly, he pulled away from me, with a sad look.

"I-I need to tell you something, Mary...I can't...I-I have a girlfriend..."
