TOM GROANED AS ZENDAYA dragged him into the restaurant. He really didn't want to be out of his hotel room. Not only was he jet lagged, but he was not in the mood to socialize with anyone. Plus, he wasn't even that hungry.

"You look so sad," Jacob frowned once he saw Tom and Zendaya finally sit down.

"It's because he misses a special someone." Liz smirked as she sipped her ice tea.

"...No," Tom squinted at her before clasping his hands together onto the table.

"We ordered pizza, if that's okay." Tony told him, seeing that the conversation was dying very quick within the friend group.

And just before Tom could reply, Zendaya cut in. "Pizza is the bomb. If he doesn't like that then he can eat outside."

"I'm offended that you even think I don't like pizza."

"Have you seen yourself?! Do you even eat pizza, dude?" Jacob threw a napkin at his british friend.

"If he didn't, then how would he have met the lovely Geovanna Selene Ricci?" Laura grinned, having fun with teasing him about his yet-to-be girlfriend.

"Man, I can't believe you're not dating her yet." Haz shook his head, disappointed with his best friend.

"I'm just looking for the right time!" Tom defended himself and accidently raised his voice a bit when he spoke.

"Mhm, sure hunty." Zendaya threw him a fake smile.

The group quickly began making their own side conversations while Tom sat in his seat, staring blankly out the window. He didn't really have anything on his mind until Haz's voice echoed through his head. But it wasn't for long because it seemed that the food had arrived just before Tom was going to get deep into thought.

"One large meat lover's pizza," a man with a thick Australian accent said as she placed one out of the two pizza's down.

"And large cheese pizza." a woman said with a familiar voice and got in between Tom and Jacob just to place the pizza down.

"Holy shit, this smells good." Tom mumbled under his breath.

"Language!" the woman standing behind him said.

"Hey..." Jacob turned around to see the woman's face and immediately smiled before Zendaya, who was sitting across from him, decided to kick him in the shin.

"Oh, uh-" Tom felt his cheeks rush red and turned around, not really paying attention to the woman's face. "Sorry, ma'am."

"Oh it's alright, Tommy. We all slip up." Geovanna chuckled, resting her hands on her hips as she watched Haz, Tony, Laura, Jacob and Zendaya snicker at how obvious Tom was being. He hasn't even realized that she was there, in London, standing right behind him.

"Tommy...?" he mumbled, furrowing his eyebrows in confusion and finally brought his eyes to the woman's face. "Oh my god," it was Geo.

"Took you long enough, goddamn." Zendaya laughed, her phone in hand as she began to record the scene in front of them.

"You're totally sending me that." Laura grinned, whispering to the woman next to her.

"Holy shit you're here!" Tom exclaimed excitedly and stood up from his seat, wrapping his arms around Geovanna tightly.

"Wow, I do owe you ten bucks Laura." Geovanna smiled as she tightly hugged Tom back before pulling away to stare at her. "He didn't notice me walking by and giving you guys water."

Tom looked at Geo in disbelief before turning his head towards his friends. "I didn't?"

"Bro, you looked pensive as fuck." Jacob laughed with everyone else nodding in agreement.

"I'd like to say that you were thinking about me, but yanno." Geovanna grinned before throwing her arms around his neck once again.

Tom sighed, looping his arms around her waist and mumbled into her hair, "Of course I was thinking about you."

¤ ¤ ¤

"What's with all the post-it notes?" Geovanna asked once she entered Tom's hotel room.

"Nothing!" he quickly began ripping them off the walls until she was able to take one that he hadn't reached yet.

"You really don't have to-"

"-'Date Idea #14: take Geo to the the first place your finger lands on when you close your eyes and point at the country you two are in.'" she looked up from the piece of paper and smiled softly, feeling her heart beat faster at the adorable note. "Awe, this is a wonderful idea!"

When she turned to look at Tom, his face was completely red and his eyes were darted away from her. Geovanna smiled softly and cupped one of his cheeks in one hand before kissing his jaw lightly. "You look like a tomato."

"D-Do you really like that idea? I have lots more-" Tom blushed again before lowering his head onto hers, letting out a soft sigh and mumbled out, "I just want our first date to be perfect."

Geovanna's smile widened, her nose softly nudging his chin as she softly pressed her palms against his cheeks and started to giggle. "I don't need perfect to be with you, Tom. I just really need... you."

He laughed lightly as he removed her hands from his cheeks, holding her hands in his and gaze down at her lovingly. "I love you."

"I love you too." she whispered, her brown eyes slowly meeting his before getting locked in each other's gaze.

"Oh thank god." Tom mumbled under his breath before crashing his lips into Geovanna's.
