Take Me Away, Newtmas

Eating Out.

Newt POV. (Idk about the pic, but shooketh Sam Winchester is such a mood)

All in all, I've had a pretty strange but amazing day. Firstly, my suspicions about Teri being trans were confirmed. Secondly, Tommy and I went shopping and had fun. Thirdly, The quest for the binder... I don't think I'm going to bloody recover from that any time soon. Next was seeing Tommy beat the crap out of those guys who pushed me over. I never knew how strong he was before, but I sure as hell do now. Then there was Teri's hair cut and giving him the jumper from me. Now, I'm sitting in a rather fancy restaurant, my sister and Stiles sitting across from me. I honestly had no clue they were dating, but I'm really happy about it. It's been too long since I've seen Malia so bloody happy. Minho's also here, Teri having invited him. I didn't even know they were friends. But clearly they are, because they've been talking to one another all night, Minho congratulating Teri on coming out as trans to everyone. Apparently he'd known for a couple weeks now.

"So Newton, what's your favourite subject in school?" Miss Greene asks me as she sips her wine, blue eyes focused on me. They were an almost perfect match to Teri's.

"Art. I'm not exactly sure I'm all that good at it, but that won't stop me from enjoying it." I say calmly, smiling at the woman beside me. Tommy's sitting on my other side, talking to Malia while he holds my hand.

"I'm sure you're fantastic. How'd you meet my son?" Miss Greene has been asking me questions pretty much since we sat down, not that I blame her. I just bloody hope she likes me. This question in particular seems to catch the attention of everyone at the table, all eyes focusing on me. I shrink away a bit, Tommy giving me a reassuring smile

"I met Tommy on his first day of school. He asked to sit next to me at lunch and I let him. It was actually kind of strange for me to do something like that, for I'd developed social anxiety around a year and a half ago. Then he introduced himself to me, and I got nervous and acted stupid. I also don't usually like nicknames because I've had quite a few insulting ones over the years. But then Tommy called me 'Newtie' after Alby had sat with us. Alby flipped out, but I didn't really notice. The one thing I did notice was Tommy's eyes. They held happiness, but also something I couldn't place at the time. He was a mystery to me, and even when I figured it all out, he is still so interesting to me. I wouldn't change him for the world, and I may not know why he decided to sit beside me that day, but I wouldn't change anything for the world." I say in a calm and unwavering voice, meaning every word of it. I look at Tommy, who starts talking too.

"I sat down at your table because I'd seen you earlier in the day. You were running down the hallway and went right past me. You didn't notice me, but I couldn't help but notice you. Then I saw you at lunch and I knew I had to get to know you. You were quiet and cute and your accent was the greatest thing ever, even though you'll disagree no matter what I say. You then giggled, and I knew then that I was going to care about you. I didn't know how much then, but that didn't matter. All I really knew was that I had to protect you. And I have, and I don't plan on stopping. You're also the first person to actually like me for who I am, so thank you. I know we haven't really known each other for that long but it honestly feels like a lifetime. I'm glad you haven't gotten bored of me yet." Tommy smiles at me, giving my hand another squeeze as he smiled even wider.

"Tommy, I'll never get bored of you." I say quietly, smiling back at him. Someone coughs awkwardly and I remember that there are people near by... people who just heard everything I said. Heat floods to my face, making me look down to the table. "Sorry..." I mumble quietly as I take a sip of my creaming soda.

"Holly crap, Tom keep this one." Teri said, smiling at me.

"I'm planing to." Tommy said confidently, wrapping an arm around my shoulder. I blush a bit again as I smile up at him.
