~ James' POV ~

Shit. What is he doing?? Am I blushing?! Shit!! Thomas looked at me, a concerned smile on his face. I stared at him too long and completely forgot his question.

"James?" He asked, taking me out of my trance.

"Huh? What?" I said back. He laughed, and I could feel an embarrassed tingle creep onto my face.

"I said, are you okay now? I only said it two times already," he laughed.

"Oh, sorry. Yeah, I'm okay," I said, wondering if I actually was.

"Okay, good. I was worried there for a second." We both stood there for a while in silence. Welp, this is awkward. I took this silence as an opportunity to think. That coffee might have been hot, but it wasn't that hot. I only pretended it was because otherwise, Thomas would've known that I actually got really surprised at what he had said. "The one with all the cherry blossom trees"? Look, I've seen enough anime to know that cherry blossom trees are a crucial for a romantic setting. Is that what he intended, or...? My thought process was cut off by Thomas' voice.

"So, are you gonna change, or do you plan on rollerskating without a shirt?" He laughed, pointing at my chest. What?! Oh my god! I didn't realize I wasn't wearing a shirt!! I stood in shock, my eye twitching. How embarrassing. "Jemmy? You good, man?"

"I'll be right back," I said, running past him to my bedroom. I slammed the door behind me, a bit too loudly. I heard Thomas calling me from the kitchen.

"Alright, but hurry! Spring is the perfect season for cherry blossoms!" I took a deep breath and locked the door. I then proceeded to get dressed, my face burning.

Note: Sorry this is short, but I've decided to have the chapters be one prospective at a time. That way, I can get more done and upload more often
