Trudging through the rain, Thomas huffed loudly at the mail man's idiocy and inability to put the mail in the right mailbox. 4173 was nowhere near 4137 for Christ's sake! The weather had enough time to change from sunny to rain on his walk that made Thomas even more miserable, all because of a stupid number mix up. The person he was hand delivering all this to better not outright throw it all in the garbage, not after all the work Thomas was doing. Rounding up the driveway, Thomas approached the house with a scowl pressed on his face and envelopes in hand. A face appeared in the doorway before Thomas could even reach for the doorbell.
"Hello?" an accented voice asked. Thomas' sour expression fell as he properly looked at the person who greeted him. He was gorgeous beyond any reason and Thomas had to mentally slap himself out of staring at the guy.
"The idiot mail man put these in my box. Didn't know if any of it was important or not so I'm here to finish his work," Thomas explained. He held out a small stack of mail for the guy who looked at it curiously. "I have a feeling I'll be here a lot since I manage to get all sorts of weird stuff that isn't mine."
"Thank you. I'm Newt which I'm sure you've deduced on your walk over." Newt held out his hand which Thomas took happily.
"Thomas," he managed out. He felt a little giddy at the simple touch of the guys hand in his but Thomas couldn't help but to admire the sharp features, light hair, and lithe limbs that disappeared into a sinfully tight shirt and super skinny jeans that looked like they stopped all circulation from the waist down. If Newt noticed Thomas admiration, he didn't let on that he knew. He gave Thomas a lopsided grin instead and moved off to the side of the doorway.
"The rain is only supposed to get worse. You want to come inside until it lets up?" Newt offered. Thomas returned the grin, toed of his shoes, and stepped inside the house. Thomas decided he liked Newt already and he might be willing to take some mail just so he could bring it back all so he could spend more time with the beautiful neighbor down the road.
