Tom had gone out for lunch and to run some errands, wanting to leave Andre alone. He needed to figure things out for himself.

Tom was obviously hoping Andre wouldn't completely bail on tonight. If only he did go, he'd be in for a huge surprise which he'd obviously be very happy for. But the point was that it was a surprise, so Tom couldn't say anything to convince him.

Tom knocked on Andre's bedroom door. "Hey." Tom said, lightly pushing the door open.

Andre, on the other hand, was feeling a bit better after Bella texted him back.

"Andre! You're dressed." Tom exclaims once he walks into Andre's room. "Aw, buddy. You look good!" Tom said, trying to cheer his friend up.

"I'm only doing this for you. And Bella." Andre said, looking between the television and Tom.

"Bella?" Tom questioned.

"Yeah. She texted me. Convinced me to go." Andre said.

"Interesting." Tom nodded thoughtfully.

"Do you wanna go now?" Tom asked.

"It's only five thirty." Andre said, looking at the clock.

"Better early than late." Tom shrugged. Even Tom was excited for Andre's night. Very excited. He couldn't wait to see the priceless look on his face.

"Sure." Andre sighs, standing up. He followed Tom outside and to his car, buckling in the passenger seat, preparing for the big night.
