James POV

After Thomas left, I finished reading my page to understand what he meant.

He says he thought what he said in class. I'm looking for the words he could have said. I'm bad at reminding myself of something. That's why Aaron was surprised that at recess I remember Tommy.

Ah yes! He found me cute ...... Why does everyone find me cute? Peggy, Aaron, Herc and now Thomas. I sigh before going back to my book.

Awesome cousin:

JAMES!!!

I put down my book and take my phone to see that Hercules sent me a text message.

Little teeny tiny cousin:

Yes?

Awesome cousin:

You're okay ?

Little teeny tiny cousin:

Yes and you?

Awesome cousin:

Well, but I wanted to tell you something.

Little teeny tiny cousin:

What?

Awesome cousin:

Don't go near Burr any more.

Little teeny tiny cousin:

WHAT ????? !!!!! WHY ????!!!!!

Awesome cousin:

Because I don't want him to talk to you.

Little teeny tiny cousin:

Hercules. (It's never good when James says his name in full) I'm not a kid anymore, I know how to fend for myself and if I want to talk to him it's my decision. OK?

Awesome cousin:

We'll talk about that at school. Bye.

I hesitate to answer him.

Little teeny tiny cousin:

Bye.

But I do it anyway.

I cross my arms and sulk alone on my bed. I finally get up to take food.

Thomas is still watching the window. I go behind him and hug him from behind.

«Bouhhh!»

He doesn't move, but he looks tense. I turn my head so I can see his face. He is all red. I start laughing.

"It's you who is cute now, Thomas." He blushed even more.

Thomas POV

He says that I am cute. I thought he didn't listen to me, but I was wrong. I blush at every laugh that comes out of his mouth.

Ring Ring!!!

I look to see if it's not my phone, but it's James's.

"Hallo?...Yes....if you want.....ok. " He hangs up.

"Who was it?" I ask.

"It's Laurens," He says, pouting.

"Do you want to come to the restaurant with Aaron and me on Wednesday?" He asks. I nod, my face still as red as before.

I want to be able to go out with Jemmy and we just stay both. But this day will not come, maybe never...
