I quickly move about the room, buttoning one of Tom's button downs that I had borrowed so that Zendaya and I could head out and get our hair and nails done before the premiere tonight.

Tom is sitting on the bed, watching me with a small smile on his face, the onesie and picture sitting across his lap that are still nestled under the covers. "But I can keep the picture, right?"

I laugh as I stop in front of the bed, looking at his sweet smile and messy hair, "As long as you don't show it to anyone, Thomas." I tease, walking over to sit next to him.

"Not even Tess?"

"Not even Tess."

Tom pouts, but I know that it's far from real. "When do you want to tell our family and friends?"

"I want to wait for a while longer, make sure we don't lose them, ya know?" I whisper, running my hand through his hair and down to cup his cheek.

Tom nods before placing a soft kiss to the inside on my palm. "You better get going before Z comes and drags you out."

I nod, pinching his chin between my finger and thumb before pressing a kiss to his forehead. I stand and grab my bag, smiling at him one more time before leaving the room and head down the stairs to the kitchen.

"You ready to go, (Y/N/N)?" Zendaya says with a smile, handing me a to-go coffee container.

"Yeah lets-"

"Wait," Tom whines, jogging over to us, making Z roll her eyes. He wraps an arm around my waist and pulls me into a quick kiss, making her gag.

"I let you stay in my house and you thank me with this?" She groans, but I can see the hint of a smile on her lips.

"Just have to say bye to my favorite girl." He states, pulling me into another hug before pushing me over to Z, but not before pinching my ass.

"Thomas Stanley Holland!" I squeal, playfully glaring at him before blowing one last kiss to him. He smiles at me and waves.

"Do you know how excited I was when he finally admitted that you two were finally dating?" Z asked as we hopped into her car. She turns and looks at me with a serious face, "so freaking excited."

I laugh next to her, shaking my head. "You and several million other people." I feel my phone buzz in my pocket and pull it out and see that I have a message from Tom.

Thomas💙

So no peeking

Thomas💙

Fine

Have fun ❤

"You two are literally too cute," Zendaya pulls me from my thoughts, "Like, when I called him after you two were officially out he gushed about you like crazy. I mean, he did that already, but he still was so happy."
