Soulmates? ||:Jeffmads:||

[Thomas' P.O.V]

I walked swiftly down the roads of New York City,dimly lit by the odd streetlight every now or then. Of course my boyfriend Alex felt it prudent to send me to Walmart at 23:33 for supplies. His bathroom had somehow flooded,and somehow 'managed to get to the pancakes'. So there I was at nearly 12pm in Walmart, buying pancakes. One day if I am still alive I will  kill him. I was going to freeze out there to say the least; global warming has took a turn for the worst, next thing you know there'll be sun in England! The warm houses I passed by mocked me, I could almost see their smug faces taunting me. Sighing, I kicked one of those big two-liter bottles of cola down the street. As i did so i realised it hit someone,i had just kicked cola at a random person in the middle of the street

Oh god

Trying to look as normal and sane as possible, i approached the person to apologise for bombarding them with a bottle of cola. It was a man who looked somewhere around my age with short hair. His face looked really confused-most likely because a bottle had come flying out of no-where and hit him in the face. He swifty turned around to look at me,his face was drained of colour, he was obviously scared. I had litterally just walked up to him down a dark alley way and i was very taller than him so i kinda loomed over him.

"A-ah.." he mumbled nervously "I'm sorry if i was in your way.."

His accent was like mine, I of course found that quite cute

"Oh no! I came to apologise for kicking that-" I pointed to the bottle "At you." I scanned him up and down "Hey, aren't you cold?"

I had only just then realised he was wearing shorts and a tank top, i suppose he underestimated the weather or something, it was like five degreese out and he was wearing those clothes,he was going to freeze!

"Ah-uhm yeah.." He nodded "It's colder than what my friends told me it would be..." What made it worse was that he had to carry about eight, massive bags

"Here." I took off my blue puffer jacket and put it around the boys shoulders, he looked up at my confused "No please,you'll be cold" He argued

"Seriously,it's fine,i've been through worse.." I chuckled,he seemed to laugh along too. He looked quite cute in the jacket,it was really big on him. But i shouldn't be calling him cute-I have a boyfriend! "Thank you," He nodded

"So, what brings you onto this random street at nearly-" I looked at my watch "Twelve at night?"

The smaller boy looked down at the floor "I arrived here today and i was meant to share a dorm with some other people but they didn't let me in..." He sighed "They claimed that i would be in their way.."

"Who were they?" I asked more agressively than I should have been

"I-i'm not to sure.." he replied "Do you know any cheap hotels i could go to? I gave them all my money for the room..."

So this guy had come all the way from virginia or something with a hella lot of luggage and then wasn't aloud in the room he payed for so he had to go onto the streets at the middle of the night in shorts and a tank t-shirt? I couldn't help but feel angry for him. He had no idea where in New York he was and he hardly had no money left.

"No, i don't know any hotels but i do have a spare room in my apartment,you could stay there?" I suggested the boy looked surprised at my offer

"Oh Thank you!" He pulled me into a hug "I'm James Madison." He beamed and looked up at me

"I'm Thomas, Thomas Jefferson." I nodded and took six of his eight bags,he looked shocked by then. Once i started walking I ushered for him to follow

"Are you  sure you can manage all those bags? I was told they weigh the equivalent to an average six year old boy." He tried to grab one of the bags but i just continued to walk

"Oh please, i'll be fine." I smiled  

We began to talk about our interests and other things,i learnt a bit about him and he learnt about me. I picked up that he hated heights which personally i would've been able to agree with if it wasn't for Alex forcing me up the blackpool tower when we went there last year.  It also turns out he's bi,that makes three of us. Yay .

"So, I never asked you this my why was you out so late?" James smiled at me. I giggled "It's a long story,i'll tell it you in the morning?"

"How about you sum it up?"

"Pancakes..."

"...."
