There were a lot of people that would have loved to have the attentions of guitarist in a famous band. Thomas was counted among that number though the chances that he would be to object of said attentions was non-existent. Thought he still went to the concerts of his favorite band religiously any time they were within driving distance just to see a certain blonde heart throb with long, able fingers. Newt may not be the traditional looking rocker but he was able to work magic that no one else seemed to replicate. Even those who weren't fans of the music didn't mind sticking around to watching him.
There was always one part of every concert when they did a series of their ballads and slower songs where they would select members of the audience to perform for. Every time Thomas eagerly watched Newt move through the crowd, wishing that maybe it was his lucky day. Normally, Newt would pick a moderately decent looking girl even though he came out as gay when the band started to become successful. But it never failed that said girl would look like a love sick puppy despite the facts. Thomas watched as Newt moved about the crowd once more, looking for a willing participant to bring back on stage with him. Thomas just relaxed against a nearby light fixture, expecting nothing different than any other time he'd been to their concert. Newt's face appeared from the swarm of people, much closer than Thomas ever got to see him before. He caught Newt's eye and nodded once at him in a silent greeting. Newt raised his index finger, pointed it directly at Thomas' chest, and beckoned him closer with a single movement of the digit. Thomas' heart fluttered rapidly in his chest as he moved to stand closer to his celebrity crush. He couldn't manage to hide the growing smile on his face as Newt offered his arm.
"What's your name, love?" Newt asked, his voice raspy after his night of screaming backup vocals and getting the audience pumped up. His accent was thick yet light and it sounded perfect in Thomas' ears.
"Thomas," He managed to breathe out without stumbling over this thick tongue.
"Nice to meet ya, Tommy. Sit down and relax because this part of the show is just for you," newt instructed as they ascended the stairs. The crowd applauded the choices though murmurs could be heard about the only male audience member among three other girls. Thomas rolled his eyes and sat in the chair nearest Newt and settled in for the best half an hour of his life.
