Our Love || TinCan

CAN POV

    I have a confession.

    I know who Tin is. I know who his parents are. I know he's rich. I know his father is like the biggest guy in Thailand. I know what family he belongs to. But I don't care. I don't like Tin for his money. I like Tin because he's just Tin. Oh yeah. One other thing:

    I like Tin.

    Have for a while now.

    I knew who he was a long time ago.

    Ae is my best friend, so, naturally, I was one of the first people to know about Pete, his boyfriend. And, like any other good friend, I had to make sure that Pete was right for Ae. So, I internet stalked him. Doing that, I found Tin. Ever since I began my internet stalking on him I have had a super big crush on him.

    I didn't mean to run into him coming out from the field the other day, but I'm glad I did, and a little embarrassed. It wasn't exactly the best way to meet him in person, but at least I did.

    And last night he brought me to stay in his apartment. He let me take and shower there and wear his old clothes. When I heard Pete talk about Tin it always sounded like he was some cold monster, but I think he is absolutely the opposite.

    He invited me to breakfast the next morning and drove me to practice, he's even driving me home right now. Do you know how hard it is to keep your cool when your crush suddenly barges into your life out of nowhere and just pretends he's been there the whole time? My heart is always beating really fast when I look at him.

    "Can?" I heard Tin calling my name, bringing me out of my thoughts. I looked over to him and he pointed out the window. "We're here." He said. I looked out the passenger's side window and nodded, smiling.

    "Thanks for bringing me home." I said grabbing my things from the backseat. He smiled and me and shook my head.

    "Anytime. And it's a good thing I know where you live too." He said. My eyes went wide and I looked at him confused.

    "Why?" I questioned. He laughed and shrugged his shoulders.

    "Because last night you wouldn't wake up and tell me where you lived. That's why I brought you to my place. Now, that won't happen again." He said. I laughed nervously and nodded.

    Right, that was another thing. I was piss drunk in front of him and passed out. What the hell was wrong with me. I'm hungry again.

    "Right. Well, thanks for driving me. I had fun this morning and hanging out with you." It was like absolute heaven. I added the last bit in my head. He smiled at me again and nodded.

    "It was. Let's hang out again sometime." He suggested. I nodded and smiled. I wasn't going to turn him down. "Pete's mom's birthday was a couple days ago. They are having a party tonight to celebrate. Be my plus one?" He asked. I swear I could feel my heart soar out of my chest, but I kept my cool and only nodded and smiled.

    "I would love to." I said. Shit! Love to? No! Wrong thing to say. He didn't seem phased by it though. He nodded.

    "I'll pick you up around eight." He informed me. I nodded. That was the end of our conversation. We said our goodbyes and went inside.

    "Have you a boyfriend?" Was the first thing my sister, Lay, asked me when I walked in the door. I tried to hide my smile as I shook my head, but I couldn't.

    "No. That was Tin. He's a new friend, that's all." I said as a matter of factly. She snorted and nodded her head sarcastically.

    "And for how long is this Tin going to be just a friend?" She questioned. I shrugged my shoulders.

    "Forever. That's it. We're friends. So what if he's cute and nice and everything I could ever ask for? And so what if I may have a small major crush on him? He doesn't feel the same way, so we'll just stay friends." I said shrugging again. She cleared her throat and nodded.

    "And you can be just friends with this Mr. Everything that you may have a small major crush on?" She pried. I thought about it for a little before nodding.

    "I indeed can." I said and it was the truth. If Tin wanted to be just friends I could do that. I could be just friends. I didn't jump the bones of every guy I met. Tin would be a nice friend to have around. He was also nice to look at so there was also that.

    "Okay. Mom told me to tell you to walk Gucci." Lay informed me before heading up the stairs and to her room.

    I'm hungry. Where's the food?

    At eight Tin arrived right on the dot. I had only been given about twenty minutes after my shower to get dressed because Lay was being a bitch, but I had just managed to find the perfect thing when he knocked on the front door.

    I rushed downstairs before Lay could get there and interrogate him, but I was too late. I pulled her away from the door and rushed out the door so she couldn't badger him with questions. I was not about to have him figure out my little crush.

    I also knew, as soon as the night air hit my face, that I choose the wrong outfit for an outside party. I hated hot summer nights.
