You've known Zendaya since an eternity, you grew up together, living in the same street, going to the same schools... you quickly became best friends, you were always together. When she moved away for her career you stayed in contact, you used to call each other at least twice a week and used to see each other whenever you could. When she was shooting shake it up she loved inviting you on the set to show around and spent time with you. it continued like that for years and that's how you ended up on the shooting of Spiderman Homecoming. It was really impressive, you were surrounded by celebrities such as Robert Downey Jr, the way the movie was directed was incredible with all these technologies and green background...

That's how you met Tom Holland. Zendaya talked about him in really positive terms. She said that he was hardworking, truly kind and very funny. She added that you would like him. she was right, you had a good connection with him. in a short amount of time you were inseparable. Tom liked to tease you, it was his little game to relax after a day of shooting. With Jacob they noticed that you were easily embarrassed and blushed heavily when someone complimented you so they did their best to make you flush. At this game Tom was obviously the best. He used pickup lines to make you feel awkward and that always worked.

The worst of all is that he used to tell you them when you didn't expect. The first time you were saying goodbye to the crew because it was time for you to go back home and Tom said to you "Do you mind if I walk you home?" you looked at him confused and you were even more when he added "My mother always told me to follow my dreams." When he saw your face he gave a high five to Ned. Another time you were recounting your trip in Sidney when Tom joked "Are you Australian? Cause you meet all of my koala-fications." When you were eating at Taco Bell he found it truly fun to tease you by saying "I want you wrap in my arms... like a burrito... be ma baerrito." At the beginning that was just a joke here and there but now that was a constant teasing. You knew that he just did that because it was fun but you felt even more embarrassed with the time because you developed a crush on him. that was quite hurtful to hear him say those cheesy pick up lines without meaning them just for the fun of making you flush.

It was the Spiderman premiere and Zendaya invited you to the projection. She added that she was hosting a party after the projection and you were invited too. You hesitated to go the party, you were tired these past few days because you just took your exams however you decided to go because you had enough to hear Zendaya asked you to come. For the premiere you followed your best friend's advices and wear a pastel pink tea-length dress with matched high heels and a pearl necklace. You braided your hair and just put a bit of make up to look natural. You joined Zendaya at her home, Jacob, Laura and Tony were already there. Then Tom came with his best friend that you've already met on the set. As soon as Tom saw you he asked you: "do you know why we can't see stars tonight?" You shook your head in a no and he replied "because you outshine them". you mumbled a thank you and felt yourself turned crimson. Soon after that you left Zendaya's house to go to the premiere. Everything went well and you complimented all the crew for their work, the movie was really great.

After the movie you drove to the party. This was a little one,s there were only Zendaya, Jacob, Laura, Tony, Haz and you. you were talking with Laura about your studies when Tony suggested a truth or dare. You didn't like this game it always ends up with the revelations of awkward secrets or with embarrassing dares. However everybody seemed excited to play so you played too. The first truths and dares were funny. But soon it became more and more uncomfortable because that game was about relationships, crushes, kisses... you were not very focus on the game until you heard Haz asked:

_ Tom why are you always teasing Y/N with pick up lines? He had a satisfied grin on his face when he noticed Tom's face discomposed. He sent a death glare to his best friend and replied coldly

_ Haz I thought we were friends and we had an agreement, don't we?

_ Yeah but this is so much funnier to break it! he chuckled. So your answer.

_ I won't answer to that. He stated unkindly and you were even more confused but you did your best to not show that.

_ Right you know what we do to those who don't play fair! Jacob exclaimed smiling. You deserve a forfeit!! When those words left his mouth everyone cheered. I was thinking what about a seven minutes in heaven with Y/N and it's a forfeit Tom, you can't refuse. He was smiling devilishly as Tom did his best to refrain his wish to kill his so-called friend.

_ Hey what about me? what if I refuse? You wanted to avoid this forfeit that implied you.

_ If I were you I would accept it because if you refuse it will be your next dare. So you won't escape to that. Zendaya told you laughing. You rolled your eyes.

Zendaya and the other led you to the guest room and locked you in with an upset Tom. You sat on the bed and remained silent while Tom was pacing all around the room. He eventually stopped and sat next to you. he smiled at you softly. A thought was running in your mind, you wanted to know why he was always teasing you.

_ Can I ask you something? He nodded. I have the same question than Haz, why are you always teasing me with pick up lines? He tensed a bit and frowned, he didn't expect this question.

_ Why do you think I do that? He retorted nicely.

_ well I guess you think it's fun because with Jacob you remark that it is easy to make me awkward and blush so it is a sort of competition between you that you clearly win if I can judge it.

_ If I understand it never crosses your mind that it was not just teasing but that I mean what I say. He stated genuinely.

_ What? You didn't understand what was happening, what he was trying to tell you.

_ I've been flirting with you since I met you and you think it's just teasing. Actually I don't know how to make it clear that I truly think what I say. I like you Y/N, I just didn't know how to tell you that because I was so scared of your reaction. I was convinced that you would make me stop if you didn't like me but you never really react so I figure that it was just a game for you and I was right. So I will be clear I like you and more than just a friend and I am sorry if this ruin our friendship but I can't control my feelings, I tried but I can't.

you were taken aback, you weren't ready for that. You dreamt several times of this love declaration but you never thought that it would happened one day. You didn't know what to say or what to do, you just stood there, looking at Tom with wide eyes. He seemed hurt by your reaction but he couldn't deny that he wasn't prepare to it, he was so sure that you didn't feel the same way. He couldn't stand your eyes on him so he looked at the ground. He eventually broke the painful silent:

_ Please Y/N say something. He almost begged. I am so sorry if I messed up but please say something, anything, please.

_ You know what is on the menu tonight? He sent you a confused look, he didn't know what this meant. Certainly he begged you to say something, anything but he was not thinking that you would say that. You didn't really understand why you say that, it was silly but it was the only thing you were thinking right now.

_ No I don't. he eventually mumbled even if he was persuaded that your question didn't need any answer. To him asking what you would eat that night meant that you didn't like him back. He was so surprised when he felt your hand on his chin lifting his head up and forcing him to look at you in the eyes.

_ Me'n'u. you giggled as you leaned to kiss him softly.
