"Okay,by the way, she doesn't know you're an actor and Nat told me it would me best if you don't tell her that."

"What?I'm supposed to lie to this girl about my job.Why?",Tom retorted,parking the car.

"I don't know.Well...Nat kinda told her that you're still in hotel management.So just pretend that you're still doing that.Or don't talk about your job at all.That should work.",said Harrison,nervously.Both get out of the car and starts walking towards the cafe.

"I cannot believe you.I can't believe you're making me do this"says Tom

"Please.This one time,I swear."Harrison replies.He opens the door and they walk in.

Your POV

You and your best friend Natalie were called in for work on a Saturday to finish your project.It was so last minute that Natalie had almost forgot that she had promised Harrison a date the same day.Since you didn't have a ride back after work and she didn't want you moping all alone in their shared apartment for the rest of the day( especially after your breakup),she decides to call Harrison to say that she's bringing a friend.When Harrison tells her about his friend Tom and that they'll meet after work,she couldn't be more excited.

And you?You were furious that she dragged you into this but you could see she really liked this guy. That was how you ended up here.

You had reached the cafe a few minutes before the boys arrived.Nat waved at them as they came inside and starts walking towards them.You spotted Harrison and the guy behind him who was supposedly your "date".

"I can't believe you're making me do this"you whisper to your friend.She's too busy grinning at them when she hisses back"Behave".

"Hi,good to see you again",smiled the blonde,giving you a quick hug.

You smiled,"Hi,Harrison".You had met him before once and he seemed to be a great guy.

" y/n,this is tom" ,Harrison says before going over to compliment Nat and give her a quick peck on the cheek.

"Hi,I'm Tom",the guy with dark brown messy curls and  brown eyes sits down in front of you after shaking your hand.Nat had told you that they were British,but his accent caught you off guard.

"Y/n"

He nodded once,smiling politely.

After a few minutes of  small talk between the four of you ,followed by an awkward silence between you and Tom,you ask"I'm gonna go get my drink,do you want anything ?"

"Oh, you don't have to..."

"No,it's fine.I'm going anyway...Latte?",you asked,making a guess.

"Definitely",he said, flashing you a smile.

~time skip to 10 minutes~

You  came back with your drinks and some extra sugar sachets because you didn't know how much he wanted.Being really careful as you put the drinks down on the table (because you were known to be a little clumsy)you sat down, thankful he didn't have to see you spill the drinks all over the place.You could see that Tom felt bad for letting you get it by yourself.

"Here you go",you said,pushing his cup towards him.

You briefly looked over to find your best friend and Harrison were leaning forward on the table flirtatiously and whispering who knows what in their ears.You made a disgusted face at them but they didn't even notice.

"Thank you",he said,shortly before following your gaze to see what you were looking at.

"Ugh"You both say in unison.
