Tommy dug his hands into his pocket and watched Maureen from the corner of his eye. How could he put this? He didn't want to hurt her. Or loose her. Plenty of friendships seemed to be ruined by relationships. And he didn't want that to happen. Suddenly he got a Spice Girl song in his head. And that needed to end.
"Um...hey Maureen...would you mind if...we..." He paused and licked his lips. "Do you....would you mind if..."
Then he paused realizing that he should ask Angel before Maureen. He didn't want to speak for him. Tommy sighed. Things were getting complicated. Not that he would change this for anything but... "Angel...do you wanna go off and Maureen would you mind if we headed off?" He asked holding up his arms like obe of them would hit him.

Angel raised his eyebrows slightly. Tommy seemed kind of...weird. He wasn't sure how to describe it. But he couldn't help but hope he hadn't done something wrong.
"Oh...yeah. Sure. I mean, if it's okay with you, Maureen..." he added, swallowing.

"Oh," said Maureen with a smirk to Tommy, "I get it...you and Angel need some 'alone time'...guess me seeing you two make out wasn't meant to be," she said with a smile and sighed. That would really be a cute thing to see...but, Angel didn't seem like the kinda person to do that if someone else was watching. Lightly kissing and making out are two totally diffrent areanas.
"Bye, you two!" she said and went to Smittys...but, then pouted a bit...she was gonna be...bored. She wondered if Mark was there.

"Oh ummm...thanks Maureen," Tommy said with a deep blush. "I didn't exactly mean that that...but you know. Uh thanks," He waved to her slowly. "Bye, Mo. Call me, ok?" Then he frowned and giggled to himself. A good laugh always calmed him down. "I sounded like a bubble head there didn't I?"
"Are you ok with this?" Collins asked, "I'm sorry. I just thought we could...you know. Go out and no offense to Maureen...I love her but. Are you ok with the..." He reached out and put his finger on the necklace.

"Bye..." Angel waved to Maureen before turning to Tommy. Sighing deeply, he looked down at the small necklace. "Is it blaringly noticeable?" he asked quietly.

Tommy rubbed Angel's hand with his thumb. "No, it's awful small frankly. But you know...if it makes you uncomfortable...then you can tuck it back in. I'm sorry about Maureen. Sometimes I don't think she knows anything but extremes." He frowned hoping that she didn't hurt him. "But if you want to keep it out, it does look nice on you."

Angel smiled lightly, squeezing Tommy's hand. "We'll see how it goes. I'll leave it our for now," he said quietly. He felt a little more comfortable next to Tommy. Maureen was nice...but was more likely to draw attraction.
"No...it's okay. I like her, I do. She's just a little..." Angel sighed, trying to come up with a word. "Ex..citable? A little bit out there." And just a little but much.

"Okay," Tommy said quietly looking down at their hands. "Just don't feel...like you have to. It's all you. I don't get a say," He reminded Angel just in case. He didn't want to be that type of boyfriend. The one that would take over your life and dicate what could or could not be done. He wanted to love Angel and for him to love him back. It was that simple for him.
"I like to use the word 'charming' and the word 'crazy.' They kinda go together," Tommy said winking at Angel. "She kinda attaches herself to things too. If she sees something she likes, she holds on until she gets it. I pity whoever has to be her soulmate. They gotta have a lot of patience."

"Oh, I know. Don't worry," Angel nodded, leaning up to kiss Tommy gently. He couldn't even imagine Tommy reacting any differently than he did. It just didn't register with him.
"Those work," Angel grinned. "Well...I just...I'm not really ready for that. Going out in it," he sighed deeply. "It's...it's big. I mean, I just started today..."

Tommy smiled and held back a blush. He was going to have to get used to this eventually. The kissing and the cuteness that was Angel. After all, he planned on being with Angel as long as he would allow him. So he'd definitly have to get over the blush factor.
He chuckled quietly and shook his head. "Angel, you don't have to explain yourself. It's ok. And I'm with you. What you did today...it was big it was monumental. You'll get there when you get there," Tommy said squeezing Angel's hand.
"Okay...where to?" Tommy asked, "I just kinda wanted to talk to you about this. We can go to Smitty's now if you want or...where ever."

Angel smiled lightly, letting a hand brush against Tommy's cheek. He didn't realize how cute he was. But it only made Angel love him more. Everything he did made Angel love him more. Everything. He just kept coming up with more reasons Tommy was lovable. He'd have to write them all down one day...make a list.
"Okay," Angel mumbled quietly, squeezing Tommy's hand. Then he looked at his clock. "We still have about...an hour and a half till I gotta be back. An hour and fourty minutes if we wanna be rebels," he grinned up at Tommy.

He leaned his head against Angel's hand for a moment. It was so warm.
Tommy laughed quietly. "Well you know me, Ang. I live to be a rebel. And considered the lengths you went to today...I'd say you're a bit of a rebel yourself..." He patted his chin with his alternate hand in thought. "A rebellious place...now if I was a rebel...how about the library?" He teased, then adding, "We could talk at normal loudness instead of whispering."

Angel didn't say anything, just smiled lightly at Tommy. Nothing needed to be said. Everything was understood.
Angel's jaw dropped teasingly, his eyes widening. "You wouldn't!" he giggled lightly. "Sounds good to me. Let's go," he grinned lightly, squeezing Tommy's hand and turning around to walk. Reluctantly of course.

Tommy laughed quietly as they did an about face. "I know. I'm a wild and crazy guy, Angel. Beware," He shook his head and then chuckled. "Do you really wanna go to the library? We could go to somewhere that is a little bit more exciting! I was just...we could go eat or dance...where I don't know." He shrugged. But then Angel would make the boring trip to the library, less than boring.

"Oh, I am," Angel winked, before thinking it over. The library was boring...but it was probably relatively empty. But they'd also probably get kicked out for being loud, anyway. "You hungry? I like dancing..." he smiled lightly. He didn't know where they were gonna dance, but...he'd like it.
