Tori Kelly imagines [Editing]

Will my love not be enough?

Psst you and Tori aren't dating in this. Carry on

"Y/nnnnn, babe can you do me a huge favor?"

I lift my eyes from the book I was engrossed in and raised my eyebrows at Tori. The girl who is not only my roommate/best friend but my one and only crush. Sadly, she is taken by this ass, I think called Henford? I don't know, I don't give a fuck. "And what could this favor be?"

"Welllll-" she's stalling, this is going to be big. "You see, Henry and I are going out tonight and I thought about how lonely you will be, sooooo I set you up with a date to come with us. It's a date!"

Well then.

I was speechless at this plan. The inside I was in agony, I will see Henry be with my love of my life in front of me. Yet, the outside I was hesitant and afflicted to agree, but seeing Tori's pout, I couldn't resist.

"Alright. Alright. I'll come along" I sighed, wary of tonight's outcome.

"Fantastic! I even got your dress, it's going to be fancy tonight," even better.

"Oh Tori, you didn't have to I've got plenty of dresses."

" I know, it's just I don't know. It's been a long time since I hung out with you, so here's a way of apologizing"

It's your boyfriend's fault. He's ruining us. I don't think I can do this. I'm sure Henry-what's-his-face will rub this in my face. Not only that, but it's also a blind date. What if Tori sets me up with Henry's no ass-friends! A guy! Come on.

"The date is at 8, which means we need to get ready at 6 and meet our dates at the restaurant." Tori clearing out the plan. It was only 4 pm so we have a couple hours to burn.

"Do you want to watch Netflix?" I suggested, we're not doing anything so might as well. We ended up watching movies and cuddling.

When it was 6, Tori got up and did her magic. Dressing first with a nice slim fit dress (imagine above), mine was similar, a fancy cocktail dress. ((so bad at describing dress lol)) Yes, it did take us 2 hours because Tori wanted to do little photo shoots before we left.

We headed out to a fancy bistro that I forgot what's it's called, we got out of the car to see Henry with a raven hair girl next to him. Tori started nudging me excitedly telling me that the girl is my date (thank god its a girl and I won't lie she looks pretty hot from my distance). We went in and got served to our table. Henry and Tori did their own things, while I'm stuck awkwardly this a lady I do not know.

"Well this is going to get awkward, but I'm Lauren. Lauren Jauregui." Lauren introduced herself, I did the same returning the manners. We were able to chat along calmly (surprisingly we have lots in common) until we heard Tori squealed in delight.

"Oh my gosh! Look how great you guys are getting along." Thankfully, the food came before Tori had a chance to add in anything else.

We chatted as a group during dinner, going throughout subjects and adding in our inputs.

Throughout dinner, Lauren and I slowly became touchier, nothing much besides lowkey holding hands or placing a hand on each other's hips.

Sometimes I would catch Tori's eyes drifting off to our hands or when Lauren leans over to whisper to me about how nasty Henry is. A glint of jealousy? Is what I see? I couldn't be sure as Tori would immediately look away once our eyes contacted.

Once we finished dinner, we were about to head out going out separate ways when Henry suggested walking to the park to view the Christmas decoration. We all agree (all as in Lauren and Tori because I had no choice) and started to stroll around.
