"y/n, what a surprise to see you here." thomas spoke out in excitement, deliberately ignoring the presence of third person between them. he didnt even want to recall how much of darkness they held with one another. "lets talk somewhere else." but before they could, miles spoke out, "arent you lee thomas?". as he turned to acknowledge his presence, the other walked ahead.
They fiercely stared into each others eyes. "remind me how I know you." miles laughed it off as a joke, 'acting strangers? very well. let me play along.'
"you may not know me but I know you really well." he slides his hand around y/n's shoulder to possess whats his. he stared in amusement as the other's eyes burned in rage. y/n stood silently, not being able to do anything in response. the air around them felt stiff and cold.
just then, grace walked in. she took a quick read around the situation. "Aww, what a lovely couple." her hand tightens around thomas. he felt annoyed and irritated. but remained to stand still. the glaring battle between miles and him ended at last. the other broke it off with a smile. "Shall we go, y/n?" with her approval, they walked off.

"You two go ahead. we'll catch up later.", Jay waved only at henry and proceeds to walk the other way. y/n couldnt care any less about jay's misbehaviour. she felt like a lot happened tonight. Nothing other than a good night sleep could calm her mind. with none's notice, miles reached out to henry, "walk her home safely." he said in a sharp voice. "I will." henry obediently replied and ran off.

Jay stood puzzled as he couldnt bring himself to believe what he just heard, "Is this a joke or what! how could you get attached with a girl like her! Is she a replacement for you?"
"I am not replacingĀ her!", miles shouted back. "She can never be replaced."
"right, you're not.", Jay repeated in sarcasm.
"For how long do they know each other?", miles calmly asked while reffering to 'thomas'. it didnt take long for Jay to figure out. "lot longer than us."
"Make sure they dont see each other anymore."
"are you really doing this for her?"
"She's going through the same thing. I cant let it happen. I'll stop her before it's too late...again"
