9: The Plan Worked

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Why?" I ask confused.

"I have to work overtime."

"What about Sami?"

"She went out to dinner with her mom, I thought we told you?"

"No you didn't." I say slightly angry.

"I'm so sorry Y/nn," she says using my nickname, "promise I will make it up to you."

"Well what am I supposed to do?" I ask and sigh.

"I don't know, ask Tom to take you home?"

"Fine."

"Ok, bye love you!!!"

"Love you too." I say and hang up.

I walk back inside the studio and go find Tom's trailer. I knock on the door.

Please answer. Please answer.

The door opens and I see Tom there with a pink hoodie on and messy hair.

Damn he looks cute

Damn he looks cute. No, Y/n stop it!

"Hey, I thought Mai already picked you up?" He asks really confused.

"Um, well she has to work overtime at her job and Sami is out at dinner with her mom." I say.

"Oh."

"Yeah, and I live too far away from the studio to walk so... could you drive me?" I ask nervously.

He opens his mouth to say something but then I start talking again.

"You don't have to if like your busy or something." I let out an awkward laugh. "You know what, I could probably just call an Uber or something." I say as I start walking away from the trailer.

"No Y/n!" I hear him yell and I turn around. "I can drive you don't worry." He says with a soft smile that warms my heart.

"Oh thank you." I say relieved.
———————————————

I texted Mai to tell her that Tom is giving me a ride. She keeps sending winking face emojis and I have to fight the urge to cringe every time.

As Tom is driving me back to my apartment we start talking and singing to songs on the radio. He is actually kind of good at singing too.

We talk about how Endgame filming is going and random other things. About 10 minutes or so into the drive I get a phone call from Mai.

"Wait Mai is calling me." I say over the loud music playing in the car.

"Oh, ok." Tom says as he turns down the music.

I answer the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hey, are you close to the apartment?"

"Um, about 10 minutes away I think."

"Don't come here." She says and I get super confused.

"What? Why?"

"Remember how Sami went out to dinner with her mom?"

"Yeah."

"Well they went to Applebee's."

I sigh, "Don't tell me she got sick."

"She did." Everyone gets sick from Applebee's.

"Well why can't I come home?"

"Just don't, I'll take care of her and you should enjoy your weekend!"

"Um ok, but what am I supposed to do?"

"I don't know ask Tom."

"What wh-" I start to ask but then she hangs up.

"What the hell?" I say under my breath.

"What was that about?" Tom asks.

"Mai just told me that Sami is sick and I can't come home.

"What? Why can't you go home?"

"She says that I need to enjoy my weekend." I say sounding unsure.

"Well, you could come to my house with Haz and Harry if you want. I mean, only if your comfortable with it." He says nervously.

"Yeah, I guess that's my best option."

"Ok then."
