old friends

Chapter 12

"OMG you are amazinggggg!" I shouted as I we got out of the car.

"Haha, my brother didnt wanna come anymore so... Tah dah!" Tom replied with a shrug.

"Well remind me to thank him! So what bands are playing?" I asked, almost skipping down the path by his side.

"Jesus Christ, calm down! Erm well Panic are definitely playing, I think All Time Low and Fall Out Boy are... I'm not sure, but it will only be a couple of songs each so don't get too happy.. And it will be old ones 'cause thats the point of this concert-thing." Tom explained, I was slightly ahead of him but I could feel his eyes on me.

"I fucking love you oh my-" I started, but was cut off by Tom's loud, mocking gasp. "As a friend, calm down."

Suddenly, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me into his chest. "What if, right, what if I don't want to be as just a friend?"

I could feel his warm breath on my forehead (since I'm pretty short compared to him), and his heart beating just as heavily as mine. It was so tempting to just... "I think we should go inside!" I shouted as I pushed myself away from him.

"Well rejection at it's finest." I heard him mutter under his breath as we started walking again, and I had to hold back a giggle.

Inside, Sugar We're Going Down was playing loudly.

"Um, do you want a drink?" Tom shouted over the noise.

"Er, sure, just get some some coke." I shouted back, not taking my eyes off Pete (Who had brought back his eyeliner which I personally think suits him so much).

"Hey! What you doing here?" I turned round to see Damian stood behind me, with some blonde girl that I didnt recognise next to him.

"Oh, I came with Tom." I awkwardly shouted.

"Oh so you two..." He said, making a 'sexual' gesture with his fingers.

"Nope. No. No." I replied with the straightest face I could manage.

"Ah, I see he's been friend-zoned yet again. Guess his plan isn't working out." He said, though I think it was meant to be under his breath or something.

"His what?" I questioned, only to get an embarrassed look from both Damian and the mystery girl.

"Erm.. He kinda just wants to make that other girl, what's her name, Paige, I think, yeah whatever, we all know he's using you to get her jealous.. Amelia thought he genuinely liked you but to be honest I've only ever seen him talk to you when she's around.. that didn't come from us." He shrugged, and walked off with his arm around the girl.

I looked over at Tom, who was leaning against the bar, picking up our drinks. He smiled as he walked over to me, but I looked down, trying to process what Damian had told me.

"Hey, what was that all about?" He shouted as he reached his arm out to hand me my drink.

I didn't think twice before looking up and shouting "FUCK YOU." And walking straight out the door, tears rolling down my eyes.

You can walk home.

a/n: it took ages but I did it! what do you think? I love plot twists.
