My phone went off, and since I saved the number my mother kept calling with, I now knew this was her, too.

Thomas sat next to me on the couch, scrolling on the TV after breakfast because he managed to convinced Newt he was sick.

I doubted he actually was.

And I just... stayed with him. Because why not?

"Hey." I pressed the phone to my ear as Thomas turned off the TV so my mother could hear me better. "How are you, Mom?"

"It's going quite well, honey." She said. "I made a a dumb decision to drink a few days ago, but I'm sobered up now. What about you? Everything all right?"

"Yeah, so far." I nodded. "Yesterday we—."

Thomas groaned into the phone loudly, a deep grin on his face.

My eyes widened. "Uh, yesterday we went to the spa."

"What was that?"

"What? Oh, uh... I bumped my head." I said fast, because if I told her that this was Thomas joking around she would maybe dislike him when they would ever meet.

Now there was a whimper.

I shook my head at Thomas and pressed a finger to my lips. "I guess I'll—."

"Who's with you?" Her tone was suspicious.

"I- uh, it's Thomas." I cleared my throat. "Thomas."

"Ah, I see." A chuckle. "I thought this Minho—."

I was close to hitting Thomas in the face when he moaned through the middle of my mother's sentence.

"Quinn. What are you two doing?" Her voice wasn't stern. By the sound of it, she was teasing.

"Watching a movie." I assured very fast. "It's a... it's a sex scene."

"Oh, Quinn..." Thomas muttered before he whimpered another time.

I hit the back of his head, attempting to push him off the couch. "Thomas is just joking around. Don't worry. We're not—."

"Just make sure you stay safe and use a—."

"Mom!" I was almost yelling. "We're not doing anything, I swear! Thomas is just being stupid. Really."

"Whatever you say." She let out a small scoff as Thomas groaned a few more times. "I'll let you two continue, then. Bye, honey."

"We're not—." But she already hung up. "THOMAS!"

Innocently, he turned the movie on again. "Something wrong, Spider-Man?"

"Now you have three people on the list that want to kill you." I muttered.

"I have a death wish." He grabbed a blanket. "Plus, you all love me too much to kill me. Where are the others, though?"

"Eating, I guess." I shrugged. "What movie is this?"

"Clueless."

I gasped, immediately straightening my back. "I'm in!"

"You know, Cher is pretty hot." Thomas muttered under his breath before he gave me a blanket too.

"Agreed."

"You know who else is hot?"

"You."

"Also, yes. But that's not who I meant."

"You find Newt hot, don't you?"

"Ten points for Spider-Man." He clapped in his hands.

My mouth nearly fell open. "Do you like Newt? Like-like him?"

He waited a few seconds before replying, "Yeah. I think I might have a little crush on Newt."

I squealed in my place. "Knew it!"

His cheeks were starting to turn red, but then he grinned. "Now you gotta tell me if you like Minho."

I stared at him for a few seconds, too. "I like him. A lot. Too much."

"Knew it!" He laughed out loud before turning the movie on. "Two crackheads in love with these... fancy men."

"Did you just call me a crackhead?" I crossed my arms while my eyes focused on the starting movie.

"I sure did. Want something to drink?"

"Sure. Coke, please."

He handed me the drink. "Can we watch Mean Girls after this? And yes, I know I'm making it very clear I'm bi."

"Of course. And She's The Man."

"Oh, definitely!"

A text from Minho after we finished watching Clueless and moved on to the next movie with bags of chips in our hands.

Watcha doing

Watching movies with Thomas. Wbu?

We're about to go shopping. Wanna come with us?

Nah. Don't feel very well, sorry

Don't apologize
What's wrong?

Can feel the stomach cramps starting

Aha, I see

Being a girl sucks

Being my girl wouldn't

Funny

I have cool pickup lines.
Can you stop watching that movie?
I wanna say more

No.
I'm not turning the movie off, even though I really like talking to you

You'd probably like kissing me better

Have very much fun in the city, Minho

😐

Can you go to that beehive store though? :)

No. You turned down my pickup lines.

💔

Bye

"Nah, ah, ah." Thomas took my phone out of my hands and put it to the side. "Regina is having an iconic moment again. Watch!"

I chuckled. "Yeah, yeah."
