"Oh god, I can't believe I talked to him! I mean, did you see him? He smiled at me!" I scream while making gestures with my hands.
I look back at where Denis's car has pulled out of the parking lot and I can't help but get excited as I remember what happened minutes ago.
"Yes, yes, you've already told me about twenty times" Thomas exclaims laughing.
Thomas has been waiting for about 15 minutes patiently for me to finish talking to Denis "as if we were lifelong friends". Now, he walks quietly with his hands in his pockets and a stupid smile on his face.
"And he said they need more young people in the industry, can you imagine I work on a movie with him? Oh god, I'd see Timothée Chálamet!" I keep on daydreaming while we walk to where our friends are supposed to be.
"Woah, stop there. Don't talk to me about your crushes!" He warns me before I continue talking and I roll my eyes shutting my mouth.
Since we started talking about all the crushes we had from when we were little to the present, Thomas can no longer bear to hear the names of very handsome boys like Harry Styles or Luke Hemmings. I don't think that could create a complex for him, since he himself knows that he is handsome or at least he gives that vibe.
Seeing his panicked face and taking advantage of the fact that he has stopped walking, I pounce on him throwing my arms around his waist, catching him by surprise.
I let my emotion evaporate little by little and I let myself be carried away by the heat of Thomas's body. After a few seconds, he reacts by putting his cheek on my head, since he is taller than me, and he hugs me tighter, both of us enjoying the moment.
"A thousand times more thank you for what you've done for me today", I whisper under my breath as I rest my head on his chest. But he pulls out from the embrace and put his hands over my shoulder, making me steady.
"You don't have to thank me, it was clear that you were excited and it happened that I saw him, nothing more" He explains himself as if it was nothing out of the ordinary.
"I wouldn't have talked to him if it weren't for you", I remark, "So yeah, thanks"
His eyes meet mine instantly, staying fixed for a few seconds as we get closer to each other instinctively until he shakes his head and walks away from me. He runs his hand through his hair before turning to face me and gesturing with his head for us to keep walking in that direction.
Why are things with Thomas always like this? Get closer to each other, get away ... I can't do this, not when Reece has returned to my life.
"C'mon, they're not going to wait forever!" he teases me obviously trying to break the awkward moment and I thank him in silence as we head towards our friends.
And here we go again, as if nothing could have happened.
The moment we arrive, we see Jane with a bag of Doritos that she must have bought while we didn't arrive and Nate taking some from her bag. I look at the clock to see how long it took us and I was startled to see that we have been away for about 45 minutes.
Lizzy looks at us with a raised eyebrow and with her arms crossed over her chest, I look at her pleadingly not to make any comment and she shakes her head, unable to help but laugh at the situation.
"Hey, where were you? We've been looking for you two" Nate says with his mouth still full of food and I look away in disgust whereas Thomas finds it funny. Boys.
" Has anyone ever told you that you have to swallow food before speaking?" Jane complains and Nate shows all his bitten food and Jane rolls her eyes, "You're disgusting"
