newts perspective (oh my goodness pErSpEcTivE cHaNge)

chapter 3: out

we were gettin' situated for the picture we were goin' to take when tommy came to me with an idea.

"we should kiss right when they take the picture...that way we can tell them without saying anything. i know it's kinda soon but i think they need to know...you up for it?" he whispered in my ear. my eyes widened. did i want everyone tae know? yes, i think i did. i nodded.

finally we all got situated and gally stood before us with teresa's phone camera.

"if you break the phone gally i'll break your bones." she yelled out at him.

"i won't break it teresa, don't worry." he replied. "now on the count of...four."

"four? why four? that so random, why not just do three?!" minho commented.

"because i want it to be four, now shut up and let me take the picture."

i chuckled quietly and glanced at tommy, he shifted and moved closer to me.

"one."

he glanced at me, i could tell he was nervous, i was too but i gave him a smile. he smiled back and i could see him take a deep breath.

"two."

i reached down and grabbed his hand, squeezing it reassuringly. i wanted to kiss him but i wanted him to be comfortable too.

"three."

he turned his body to face me and i did the same. 'are you sure about this?' i asked silently. he nodded.

"four."

i moved to close the distance between us, i cupped his cheek in my hand and brought his lips to mine. the phone camera flashed, though i barely registered it. it only seemed like one of the many fireworks exploding between us. thomas kissed me back and then we pulled away, smiling and slightly breathless.
