octavia and tom walked around town as tom's arm draped across her shoulders. she smiled as tom told his story of how harry and sam pranked him. she let out a laugh as tom reached the climax of the story.

"literally seb did the same thing 5 years ago, you may be spider-man but a big plastic spider on my bed is a no." tom laughed as he brought her closer to his side. he stopped walking as octavia stopped short. she turned to face him as he started to play with his fingers, she being able to tell he was thinking.

"why'd you stop? is everything all right?" asked octavia, confused. tom mumbled something incoherently as he brought his eyes to meet hers.

"would like to go out tonight?" he blurted out, the crimson red started from the lower half of his face and reached his ears. shocked, she tired to speak, but just air came out. she composed herself as she took a deep breathe. she let her lips curve upward into a small smirk.

"like a date, right?" she asked. tom nodded, still embarrassed. octavia reached for his hand, causing him to look up again.

"id love to go out with you tonight, tom." she said, her trying to hold back a smile, her failing. tom smiled back as octavia leaned in and placed a kiss on his cheek. as she stepped back, tom felt the sensation of her soft lips on his cheek linger. the crimson color red returned as octavia turned red herself.

"i'll get you at 7." said tom. octavia nodded as she intertwined their fingers together.

"can't wait." she smirked as they started walking back towards the trailers. they reached the set as they heard people whistling loudly in their direction. tom protectively wrapped his arm around her body as octavia's eyes shot up as it was robert, anthony and chris. octavia turned red as she put her head down, a small laugh escaping. the men broke out laughing at her reaction.

"she's so red oh my gosh." called out anthony. tom then let out a smile as his cheeks turned a nice shade of red. robert's eyes widened as the three laughed harder.

"tommy's blushing." teased chris as they continued to laugh. sebastian the walked towards the three, oblivious to his sister.

"why are you guys laughing?" he asked. robert caught his breath as he tried to speak, but broke out laughing. he pointed infront of him, showing him why he was laughing. he whipped his head in the direction robert was pointing as his eyes widened at the sight; tom protectively holding octavia, both of their faces in shock and still crimson. he went to speak as octavia put her hand up, telling him to stop.

"later." was all she said as she gripped toms free hand and pulled him along. tom smirked at the four men as they walked away, their jaws dropping.

"he did not just smirk at us like that."

"i think he just did."

music played from her phone as she was changing in the bathroom; a simple gray crop top and jean shorts. she wore a bralette as well as she started on makeup, her hair already in french braid.

"avi, why are you getting all done up?" called out sebastian from the bed. she mentally cursed as she forgot to tell sebastian, basically everyone else besides sebastian had found out about the two going out. she poked her head out from the bathroom.

"i'm going out with tom. i'll be back by 11 the latest." she said as she immediately closed the door. sebastian sighed as he accepted what was happening.

her and tom we're slowly falling for each other.

octavia was shocked when sebastian didn't say anything back. her music was stopped as the phone rang; her father. she pushed the door open as she accepted the phone call, putting it on speaker.

"hey dad, what's up?" sebastian's body immediately tensed up as he looked at octavia with wide eyes. she put her pointer finger to her mouth, telling him to be quite.

"hi sweetheart, how are you doing in atlanta? how's sebastian doing?" he asked, genuinely curious.

"i'm doing good dad, thank you for asking. atlanta is good, made some new friends with the new cast mates." sebastian smirked as octavia threw a tissue box at him.

"sebastian's good, he's been tired a lot more but cause ya know, he's filming all day everyday. " dad chuckled as octavia smiled, liking how the conversation was going.

"how's mom? is she okay?"

"mom's doing fine sweetheart, she's out at the store, she'll probably call you later." said dad.

"i wanted to call to say that my gift for your birthday is gonna be mailed out soon so you'll get it on your birthday." he said. sebastian tilted his head to the side as that was a first. he usually never mailed her gift if they were away. she silently gasped at her dad's words.

"really? wow thank you dad."

"of course sweetheart. i'm gonna let you go now, mom will call you later alright."

"alright dad, call you soon." she said, holding her breathe, waiting for those three words.

"bye." her heart dropped. she sighed as she rolled her eyes.

"bye dad." she hung up as she slammed her phone on the table, storming back into the bathroom and slammed the door shut. sebastian sighed as he left her alone, knowing she was heartbroken and mad. she distracted herself as she thought about tom. she smiled as she finished getting done. she stepped out of the bathroom and slipped on her maroon colored vans. she sat on the bed as she leaned her head on sebastian's shoulder.

"shouldn't you be telling me i cant go out with tom?" asked octavia, not moving her head. he rested his head on hers as he let out a sigh.

"i trust tom, surprisingly. i really do. just be careful avi, you know i hate seeing you heartbroken. it hurts me more then it hurts you, knowing i could have stopped you." octavia understood where he was coming from.

"hey shortie?" "yea seb?"

"i love you." she smiled as he emphasized the 'i'.

"i love you more seb." she kissed his cheek as he smiled as her. at exactly 7, the patterned knock was heard on the other side of the door. she smiled as she stuck her phone in her pocket and opened the door, tom in a t-shirt and jeans.

"hi darling." he said as he placed a kiss on her cheek and brought her into his arms. she smiled as she accepted the warm embrace.

"are you ready?" asked tom. octavia nodded as sebastian walked up to the two. tom tensed up as sebastian's eyes burned into his soul.

"keep her safe tom, and i want her back at 11:30 the latest." octavia smiled as he added an extra 30 minutes.

"i will, thank you." sebastian simply nodded as tom held her hand. sebastian gave a small smile as the two walked out, sebastian closing the door behind him. he leaned against the door as their chatter became quieter as they walked away.

"what did i just let her do?"

•••

"i enjoyed dinner tom." said octavia as he had brought her to a brick oven pizza place. he smiled as he had given her his jean jacket. he had his arm around his waist as she leaned into his side as they walked somewhere.

"i'm glad you enjoyed it avi." said tom. he looked at her face when they realized where they were going. her eyes widened as she got excited. tom chuckled as they reached the field where they watched the sunrise. tonight they were stargazing. there was a blanket on the grass waiting for them. she gave him a huge grin as she ran to the blanket. tom watched her excitement as he let out a grin.

wow i really do love this girl.

the two laid down as octavia rested her head on his heart. he wrapped his arm around her waist as they started pointing out constellations. they laid there for about an hour as they then sat up and talked. in the darkness, octavia could tell tom was staring at her lips. tom could tell she was staring at his. she sat closer to him as somehow their faces became inches away. tom had hesitated in cupped her cheek, her letting her head rest in his hand. she put her hand at the back of neck as they felt each other's breathe against their skin, sending chills down their spines. their noses brushed as their heads tilted in opposite directions. they barley felt each other's lips as a unknown loud crash went off in the background.

they separated as they tried to figure out where the noise came from. they looked back at each other, octavia giving a breathless laugh. luckily for the two, darkness stopped the other from seeing how hard they were blushing.

"it's getting late love, we should go." whispered tom. he saw her head nod as tom stood up, sticking a hand out to help her up. he picked the blanket up as he held her hand all the way back to the hotel room. they reached the front of her doorway as they looked at each other.

"i had a great time tonight tom." she said, giving him a smile. he grinned as he nodded back, glad she enjoyed it.

"so did i." he said back, squeezing her hand. she walked into his arms as she wrapped her arms around his torso, as he wrapped his arms around small figure, the sexual tension filling the air, both of them desperately wishing they had kissed.

"goodnight thomas."

"goodnight beautiful." he placed a kiss on her forehead as she opened her door. she sent tom one more smile as she shut the door behind her. she rested her back against the door as a grin she couldn't shake went from ear to ear. she walked out of the hallway to see chris, seb, anthony and robert sitting on the bed, eating and watching tv.

"how was your date?" asked sebastian as he placed a chip in his mouth. the four looked at her suspiciously as she was in some sort of daze.

"sweetheart, is everything alright?" asked chris, ready to beat tom up if he did something. without thinking; or caring that she just told the four most protective guys in her life the biggest secret she's ever had, and she couldn't even keep it for even 10 minutes.

"tom and i almost kissed."
