RAINBOW COULDN'T HELP BUT question if she's ever been inside Tom's loft before. This was the first time she's ever been there, but there was something, call it deja vu if you want, that made the loft feel oddly familiar. As she tore her jacket off of her body and hung it on the rack she decided it was just another silly feeling her body was having.

"The corridor isn't that interesting, c'mon Rainbow." Laura tugged her towards where the party was really starting: the living room.

To her surprise there was a lot of people there. "Wow, I didn't expect you to have so many friends, Tom." Rainbow smirked as they made their way over.

"Can't you be nice to me? For once?" he rolled his eyes before wrapping his arm arm her waist.

"Oh baby, you know I can't do that." she pecked his jaw and leaned against his body with a light smile.

"We've gathered drinks!" Ella interrupted the two, balancing two drinks in one hand.

"Oh, thank you Ella." Tom smiled at her and took the two drinks, handing one to Rainbow who immediately took a long sip.

"I believe we should have a toast," Zendaya grinned, her wine cooler in hand.

"Hell yeah!" Jacob nodded, the widest smile plastered on his lips.

"Oo, I've got this." Rainbow smiled and removed Tom's arms from her waist before stepping forwards and carefully getting onto the wooden table.

"Whoa, whoa!" Tom bolted to her, immediately coming to her side. "What the hell are you doing?!" he asked, looking up at the smiling woman on top of the table.

"I'm trying to get their attention," she ruffled his hair before doing a full 360 to look around the packed room and yelled at the top of her lungs, "EXCUSE ME!"

The loud talking in the room ceased, heads turning towards Rainbow both confused at why she was on a table and in utter awe by her beauty.

"I believe that we should hold a toast for the movie that premiered earlier tonight. So please everyone raise your bottles, cups, whatever the hell your holding and raise that shit to the sky." And when she saw people raise their cups, she raised hers up high.

"I'd like us to thank everyone who provided us with that wholesome movie. So yes, I'm looking at you guys," Rainbow smirked towards her friends. "Everyone please give a grand applause for Ella Sedero, Jacob Batalon, Laura Harrier, Tony Revolori, Zendaya and last, but certainly not least, Tom Holland!"

The room was filled with cheers and applause, leaving her friends smiling and thanking those around them. "Thank you to all of you for creating our favorite movie into the most loveable and laughable and heart breaking thing ever." Rainbow clapped her hand against her wrist, continuing to hold her cup to the sky. "Alright, I don't know what else the fuck to say, so like- yay!" she laughed softly before bringing her cup to her lips and then stepping down from her spot with the help of Tom.

"You know, you really didn't have to do that." said a breathless Tom who's face was red as he helped down Rainbow.

"Of course I did," she shrugged with a light smirk, "I'll do anything to show you off and make you embarrassed."

"I'm already a walking meme, RainBob."

"Then walk it off, Thomas."

Tom was left alone in the kitchen trying to get drinks for everyone in his living room. His fridge was packed with various liquors, but he decided to take the pack of wine coolers because he knew that they were Rainbow and Zendaya's favorites. Plus he didn't plan on getting completely trashed that night.

"Need help there?" Haz walked into the kitchen to find his best friend struggling to carry drinks in his hands.

"Please Haz," Tom pleaded as he placed half of the drinks on the counter top, letting out a small laugh.

Haz walked over and gathered some drinks in his arms, chewing on his inner cheek as he stared at Tom, "So, when are you going to tell her?"

"Tell who what?" Tom rose a brow, forgetting the large problem at hand as he got some beer bottles in hand.

"Don't shit me, mate." the blonde glared at the brunette, stopping him from leaving the kitchen by standing in his way.

Tom sighed and lowered his gaze, grumbling out quietly, "Soon,"

"Dude, Rebecca is seconds away from ripping you apart."

"I said I'd tell Rainbow soon, and I intend to-"

"When? When are you going to tell Rainbow, huh? Now? Right when you hand her her fucking wine cooler?"

"Lower you fucking voice!" Tom pulled Haz away from the hallway and looked behind him, "I'm telling her on my own terms."

Haz exhaled deeply and shook Tom's hand off of his arm before taking a step back. "Fine. Don't tell her now. But the more you put that off, the more your putting a strain on my own relationship because you don't have the damn balls to tell Rainbow." he opened a bottle of alcohol and took a long swing from it, beginning to walk away and saying to him, "You're not the only one who has shit to lose, Tom."

When Tom was finally left alone he let out a small, aggrivated noise from his throat. And without thinking, he threw one of the wine coolers at the wall across from him before dropping the drinks onto the counter top in front of him and letting out a soft sigh. Tom kicked the counter with a small grunt, his hands tangled in his hair before cupping his face in deep thought.

He was fucking screwed.

¤ ¤ ¤

Rainbow was left alone in the mists of all the partying going on. Becca and Haz went away to talk, Zendaya and Laura needed to touch up their makeup, Tony left with Jacob a few minutes ago, Ella and Mickey were making out behind her and Tom was no where in sight. But to say the least, she was bored as fuck.

Normally at scenes like these, Rainbow would be shit faced drunk and dancing around, but she decided to take the high road and stick to wine coolers for the night. A soft sigh left her lips as her leg bounced against the ground, looking around at the people she didn't know. Her eyes caught a red and black phone case in the corner of her eye. Suddenly a glint of mischief washed over her as well as a light smirk.

She grabbed the phone and later identified it as Becca's. Only Becca would have Harrison as a lockscreen and a polaroid in between the case and the phone. Rainbow grinned once she figured out the password easily.

"Oh Becs, only you would have your password as 0000." she mumbled under her breath as she unlocked it.

Rainbow smiled at the background on Becca's phone: a picture of all of them at the premiere that night. Her smile widened and when to Becca's camera, starting to snap various pictures of herself in various poses and faces that no one would like to see. Ever.

When she was gone goofing around, she decided to scroll through the pictures to try to pick the best one to post on Becca's Instagram. Rainbow pursed her lips, swiping through her selfies to try to cure her boredom but stopped when she came to a curious screenshot. Her eyebrow quirked upwards, finding it strange that Becca would have a conversation between Haz and Tom on her phone. But her fast reading slowed when she saw her own name pop up.

As she continued to read the conversation, Rainbow's throat went dry and felt like throwing up. Her emotions were a mixture of sadness, betrayal and anger. And most of all, she just wanted to scream but only felt tears roll down her cheeks. Her shoulders shook as she cried and slowly brought herself to her feet in a search for somewhere to be alone.

She ended up pushing past others, Becca's phone still tightly gripped in her grasp as she ran out the front door, her tears rushing down her cheeks followed by a choked out sob. Rainbow's back hit the wall and she was hit by the cold air that nipped her bare arms. She slid down the wall, sobs falling out of her lips as she hit her hands against the ground.

Rainbow was fucking livid and couldn't bring herself to open her eyes when she felt a presence next to her.

"Someone told me you ran out- oh shit, Rainbow are you okay?" Tom knelt down next to her and placed his hand on her arm. However, instead of having her curl up next to him as he expected, she winced back and scooted farther away from him.

"D-Don't," she spoke shakily.

Tom knitted his eyebrows in confused and looked around, until his eyes fell on a red and blue phone. He grabbed the phone and saw the one thing he didn't not want to see. Screenshots. His heart dropped into his stomach as he heard her whimper and whipped his head in her direction, "I-I can explain-"

"No... y-you can't," Rainbow muttered harshly as she wiped under her eyes harshly. "Thi-This," she gestured between them shakily, "was b-based o-on a lie. A fuck-fucking lie."

"Hey, hey," Tom moved closer to her, only making her cower away and push herself closer to the wall. "No-No it wasn't-"

Rainbow laughed and used all her strength to push him away. "I'm so f-fucking dumb. Thinking that this-this would actually w-work." she got up slowly, having Tom only mirror her motions and pointed a finger at him. "D-Don't you dare, c-come any clo-closer." the tears in her eyes welled up as she did her best to remain strong as her shoulder shook.

Rainbow turned around and started to walk away, her heart heaving and cracking with every step she took. Tears began to roll down her cheeks and she didn't dare to wipe them away, but stopped dead in her tracks when she heard three words she never expected to hear.

"I love you!"

Her heart stopped as she let out a shakey breath, a sour smile falling on her lips as she turned her head to the side and looked at Tom over her shoulder. "And I l-loved y-you."

She continued to walk down the stairs, ignoring the constant yells the came from his lips and was suddenly out of sight.
