"Finally. You guys clearly have feelings for each other or else you wouldn't have done it in the first place."

Thomas stared at the floor, trying to ignore the fact that his face was heating drastically. Practice. He took a few steps back, before turning completely and retreating to his room. He flopped onto his bed, pressing his face into the pillow and just breathing. Practice. Thomas was probably redder than a ladybug. Practice. He let out a hot breath. It wasn’t real, Damien was just helping me practice, it’s not like he likes me. It was just helping me practice. That was it.

Damien watched as Thomas left the room. He turned back to the others, trying his best to hide his blushing face. "I need to use the bathroom." He lied before running off to where Thomas had gone. He knocked quietly on the door frame, waiting for a response.

“Who is it?” Thomas asked, voice extremely muffled from the pillow. He didn’t feel like moving anymore. Embarrassment weighed too heavy on him. Gosh… I am such a fool. It was just practice.

"It's Damien," He muttered quietly. "You left kind of suddenly. I just wanted to make sure you're feeling alright." He leaned against the door frame as he opened the door cautiously.

Nova watch to both guys leave the room and head down the hall and she was pretty sure that Damian was going off to find Thomas but she didn't say anything about it. "I'm so bored!" Nova exclaimed while walking over to the couch. "I don't have school, work, or anything to do." She laid down on it, extending her arms and having her head touch the ground while her legs were at the head of the couch.

“I feel embarrassed…” Thomas said into the pillow, not wanting to turn and face Damien. He just kept his eyes closed, tugging a blanket halfway over his head awkwardly and murmuring into the pillow, “I’m a mess.”

Damien walked into the room, standing awkwardly next to Thomas. "If I'm being honest, I feel embarrassed too. I don't know why you would think you're a mess though." He fidgeted with his hands, reminding himself to get his pen from Nova later.

Antoine collapses on his bed, holding his hand to his eyepatch. Slowly he removes it, and reveals only a closed lid with a burned ankh on it. He sighs and looks up at the cieling and sighs a little bit.

WHO CAN SPOT THE MISTAKE AND THE REFERENCE??//

“I’m always a mess,” Thomas murmured, then rolled over so he could face Damien, intentionally leaving some space on the bad in case the other wanted to sit down. Stop fantasizing. He shook his head a little, “Why are you embarrassed? It was-“ Thomas voice cracked just a little, but he tried his best to hold in his sadness, “It was just practice.”

He looked down at the ground. "That's the thing. I don't think…I don't want it…" He took a deep breath. "I…it was nice. I don't think it was just practice." Damien clenched his fists, as if that would make the blush on his cheeks disappear. "And if it means anything to you, I don't think you're always a mess."

Thomas furrowed his brow, trying to keep the hope from edge img into his voice, “You… you thought it was nice?” Thomas slowly sat up, “I-I thought it was nice too…” He said quietly, a blush, yet again, rising to his face and he quickly looked away.

Damien did his best to keep himself from jumping up and down excitedly. "So…we both thought it was nice." He sat down next to Thomas, scratching the back of his neck. "That's good, I suppose."

“It is…” Thomas trailed off as he grabbed Damien’s hand. He gently tugged him down, murmuring, “We should kiss again…” Damien’s eyes were like a trance, starry and beautiful. He wished he could just capture the moment, and hold it forever.

If Damien wasn't blushing before, he was now. He let out a small squeak, his heart pounding in his chest. "Okay." That was all he could manage to get out.

(I'm sorry, I'm just feeling evil today.)

Nova got off the couch to check on the boy and saw the door open just slightly. She knocked roughly on the door to get them off of each other. "Ok, you've had your fun, but I would like to not hear some very explicit sounds in two minutes." She pushed the door wide open just to be dramatic before poking in again. "Also, I'm sorry if I mad you feel bad Thomas, I didn't mean it." She added before throwing Damien's pen at him and quickly walking away. She didn't like apologies very much but, she felt like she went to far with the teasing. "

Thomas turned red, and the moment broke before it even happened. He shrunk a little, then turned even redder, “Uh… oh.” He started to wring his hands, one of his terrible habits whenever he got nervous or embarrassed. Or both.

The pen hit Damien's face, causing him to snap out of whatever daze he was in. Mental note: Slap Madison twice, replace her shampoo with glue, then kill Nova. "She needs to stop doing that." He stated quietly.

Thomas blushed a little more, squirming just a bit while he wrung his hands, “Uh, yeah.” He nodded slightly, then looked back up at Damien, “I’m glad she gave you your pen back, though.” Gosh I’m so awkward…

Damien chuckled. "Yeah, that's good. I get super squirmy when I don't have anything to fidget with." He began fidgeting with his pen, as if to prove his point.

Thomas was about to add something else, but a little beeper went off. His nearly sprang off his bed, almost crashing into Damien in the process, “I have to get going for my auditions,” Thomas flipped off the alarm, then ran and grabbed a comb from his dresser, rushingly brushing out his hair.

It took Damien a few seconds to process what was happening, but when he did he immediately stood up and ran to his room to grab his phone. He then raced to where the others were.

Thomas snatched his phone off the counter in a hurry and called to the people who weren’t joining him as he walked out the door, “See you all! Wish me luck!” He couldn't suppress the grin on his face as he looked over his shoulder for Damien.

Damien stuffed his phone in his pocket and followed Thomas out the door, returning the grin. He had no idea where the audition would be, so he just planned on following Thomas wherever he went. He hoped that he had a car or some way to get there.

Nova saw Thomas and Damien leaving, so she decided it was best to let them go together. She hated third wheeling, even if they all were friends. "Madison!" She hollered throughout the house. "Let's go to the movies, I'm bored!"

Madison popped up behind Nova ¨What we seeing¨ Maddison said.

"Christopher Robin." Nova simply put before tossing her backpack and hoodie on.

Thomas turned and grabbed Damien’s hand without thinking, tugging him down the stairs to outside and where his motorcycle was parked. He sent a grin at Damien, “Do you mind riding a motorcycle? The only reason I have it is because it was cheap, but I know it’s kinda… I dunno, dangerous?” Thomas let out a little laugh.

¨Yay¨ Madison yelled as she grabbed her leather jacket.
