ANOTHER BAD TITLE DAMMIT
ANGELICA'S POV
In the morning, I woke up to soft kisses being planted on my shoulder and the side of my neck. I smiled and looked back at Thomas. "Hi." I said softly. He smiled back at me. "Hey." I turned around so that I was looking at him. "What time is it?" I asked. He turned his head to check his clock, then back at me. "7:30. Do you want any breakfast?" I nodded. "Yes please." He smiled and slowly got out of bed. He grabbed two fluffy robes from his closet and handed one to me. "I figure that you wouldn't want to put your clothes on yet."
"Thanks, Thomas." I got out of his bed and put the robe on. "You're welcome, Angel." He wrapped his arm around my waist as we walked into the kitchen. "You like eggs and pancakes, right?" I scoffed playfully. "Um yes? What kind of a person would I be if I didn't?" (A/n I actually don't like eggs so .-.) I joked. He laughed. "I figured." He started to make the Good Food™ for me, and I stayed at his side. "Do you need help?" He shook his head. "No, I got it." He placed a kiss on my head and finished up with the eggs. He set the plates at the table and started on the pancakes. He had some batter already in made, so he was quick to make them.
When he finished, I poured some orange juice for both of us, and we sat down at the table and started to eat. We barely got to eat when- "Hey Thomas, I came home from Dolley's house late last night, and I saw you had a girl over, do you want me to call the office and say you won't com-" a groggy voice called, entering the kitchen, causing me to jump. The voice cut himself off when he must've noticed that I was there. "She's sti-" I turned around, recognizing the voice. "Angie!?" It was James. Sweet Jesus I missed this boy. "James!" I grinned and got up, hugging him.
"Angie! Oh my god, I missed you so much, how's life? How was the rest of college?" He asked me, also grinning. "Oh college was great! I missed you though. And life's good." I told him. "When Thomas told me that he got a date with you I was like, 'what the fuck? That's not the Angie I know, going out with a man she barely knows!' And right now I'm like 'what the fuck!'"
"Why now, why what the- OH GOD RIGHT!" My lord, I feel kind of bad. I just slept with my best friend from college's roommate. "I know right? The Angie I used to know never fucked a guy on the second date! That only happened when you're drunk, with the exception of A-" I kneed his stomach. "Oh right, sorry." He apologized. I nodded and sat back down. Thomas was staring at us, a bit puzzled. "The exception of who?" He asked, the question open for both of us. "Just an ex, don't worry." I brushed he question off. "So, James, how's life for you?" I changed the subject.
"Oh, it's great! I work at this animal adoption center, it's adorable. I love it. Bad news, I have... uh, I have l-lu-..."
"Lung cancer. Yeah, Thomas told me." I frowned a bit. "It'll be ok." James sat down at the table. "I know, I'm just scared..." I rested my hand on top of his. "I'm serious, it'll be ok." I smiled a bit. "Thanks Ange. You're literally the best."
"I know." I joked and James laughed. "God I missed you." He said with a grin. I finished my food and looked at Thomas. He was finishing up, and I could see that his grip on his fork was very tight. I smirked. Somebody's jeaaaalousss. "Oh, Thomas, you'll never believe this, but yesterday at work, you know how John, Laf, and I talk a lot?" He nodded. "Yeah why?"
"Wait, omg, you work with them?" James asked me excitedly. I nodded. "Yeah! The gossip circles aren't the same without you, though."
"We have to hang out with them sometime soon!" James grinned and I nodded. "So anyway, Thomas, you won't believe this, but John was trying to start a rumor-"
"Like always." James cut in. "Right, a rumor that you fucked Aaron Burr." I laughed, and Thomas turned pink. "Ew oh my god."
"He wouldn't have been the only one that fucked Burr." James mumbled quietly, and I kicked under the table. "Anyway," I continued, glaring at James a bit. I looked at Thomas, and he seemed very confused. He hasn't worked it out yet? "John was also implying that Hercules had a big dick, and poor Laf had no idea what he was going on about." I said. "That's why you were laughing so much." Thomas said and I nodded. "Wait, what did John say exactly?" James wondered. "Well he said that Herc has a big... taxi, and that he was packing a stretch limousine." I said, grinning. "You would know about that, wouldn't you, Angie." James said, innocently and my face turned red. "James, what the fuck, that was in high school." I wrinkled my nose and he bursts out laughing.
I rolled my eyes and checked the time. 8am. "Should we get ready for work? We have to stop by my place to get my uniform." I asked Thomas. "Yeah, we should."
James pouted. "You're leaving already?" I nodded. "Sorry, Jamesie, but we have work to do." We all got up and James and I hugged. "I'll see you around, Angie." He said. When we pulled away, he kissed my cheek p l a t o n i c a l l y, but I don't think Thomas caught the platonic part. I saw him clench his teeth. "Of course James. I'll tell John and Laf that I saw you." James smiled and I walked over to Thomas. "Read-" I was cut off by Thomas pressing a passionate kiss to my lips. I heard James fake barf behind me as we kissed. We pulled away, Thomas looking accomplished, and me looking and feeling very flustered. "Looks like I'll be seeing you around here more often, then." James said with a laugh. I rolled my eyes. "I guess." I couldn't help but grin. "Ready now, sir?" I asked Thomas with a smirk. "Aaaangieeeee..." he whined and I laughed. "Come on, let's go." I grabbed his wrist and we made our way to his room. He quickly got dressed and I did too.
We got to the door, me grabbing my stuff on the way, and James stopped us. "Angie, sweetheart, I love you and all, but what the fuck are you wearing. You only used to wear clothes like that to parties, on those rare occasions you went." James raised an eyebrow. "Oh, James, shut up." I laughed. "See you around, Jamesie." I called back as Thomas dragged me out the door. "Someone's jealous." I smirked. "Ah, Angie, in your own words... shut up." I laughed and he kissed me quickly. We got in his car and started to drive.
