Did you really want to go to New York to go to a world premiere with the lead actor who just so happens to be one of your best friends? Think of all the people. All the questions. All the stares, rumors, camera flashes in your face. But think of Tom. How you haven't seen the man in seven long months. The person you've talked to nonstop talking about anything and everything.

You
Who all is going to be there with you?

Mind Reader
Harrison, Harry, and hopefully..... you
My team will be there but they're only around for hair, clothes, and stuff like that
Tessa will be there

You haven't seen Harrison in so long either. You've talked to him somewhat, but nowhere near as much as Tom. You never met Harry. Tom talks about him a lot though. You've seen his photography which is quite impressive. Might have to ask for a few tips.

You
Let me find an Airbnb and buy a ticket real quick

Mind Reader
So is that a yes?
Both are already taken care of

You
I guess. I'm only in it to see Tessa
Rewind. Both are already taken care of?

Mind Reader
Figures. I knew you liked her more than me
I just bought you a ticket that leaves tomorrow at 7
For the other thing, you can stay with me

You
Stay in a hotel with three guys. No I'm good

Mind Reader
The hotel we're in has adjoining rooms (y/n). Harrison and Harry are in one room, we'll be in the other. Metal door and all to lock them out. So basically it's just the two of us

Oh. Oh. Come on brain, stop freaking out and think.

Mind Reader
Unless that's not ok. You can still get an Airbnb.
I just thought since I'm asking you to come last minute that I would offer you to stay with me.
Less worry of trying to find a place and save some money

You
No no it's all good. Um yeah. Sounds like a plan man

Man? Seriously? Mental facepalm.

You
I'm going to go pack
Wait
Are you picking me up at the airport or can you tell me the name of the hotel so I can tell the cab where to go

Mind Reader
I'll be there. Says you should arrive around 8:40-9ish

You
Ok cool. See you tomorrow then

Mind Reader
See you tomorrow!

What just happened?

It was around nine when Andi finally arrived home. You were in your room pacing, clothes scattered all over the floor. You didn't even hear your door open to a confused looking girl.

"Hey (y/n/n)'s." Her face fell when she saw your panicked state and the mess of your room. "What's going on in here? Looks like a tornado hit only this one room and left." She carefully walked over to your bed and sat down in the one spot clear of clothing.

"I'm going to New York. I'm leaving tomorrow." Your pacing hasn't stopped. It's increased.

"Um okay. Is this a nervous breakdown from losing your job? Why are you going to New York and why am I just now finding out?"

Your best friend went from confusion to concern. You decided to halt and take a deep breath. "No. Tom asked me to come. Because I just found out."

Her face went straight back to confusion. "Tom asked you to go to New York? Why? You've never hung out with him since California. Why now?"
