What about Tom taking osterfield reader on the kitchen counter (and Harrison can't know) and if just in absolute need of her and when the Harrison and guys come back and come into the kitchen they are wondering why the reader is so disheveled
oh my fucking god.
slutty sunday
the house was finally empty. your brother had gone off and run some errands, which left you alone with tom.
you and tom had been hooking up for the past couple months, the both of you finally giving in to each other after a night out. you two kept it under wraps, though. you didnât want your brother to freak out and it would break his one rule:
âno dating my friendsâ.
but that was the last thing on your mind as tom grabbed at your hips, his hips pressing against yours as he fucked you senseless on the kitchen counter. he pulled at your hair, whispering things that sent your knees weak.
âshit,â he mumbled against your shoulder blade, âso good for me, baby. câmon, come for me. canât have your brother see us like this.â
you were so close, so so so close when you heard the keys jingle at the door. you immediately separated, the two of you tugging back on your pajama bottoms. you busied yourself with making some coffee as tom rushed over to the fridge to make himself look busy.
you ignored your heavy breathing as your brother walked through the door. you turned around and softly smiled at him as he placed his phone down on the counter. the counter tom had just been fucking you so hard on that you were about to see stars.
âmorning, sleeping beauties,â he smiled, eyes darting to you as you sipped your coffee. tom grabbed the eggs to start making himself some breakfast, even though he wasnât hungry.
âyou need a brush, y/n.â haz laughed at the state of your hair. you almost choked on your coffee.
âyeah, i know,â you said, âiâm gonna⊠go do that.â
you sped walked out of the kitchen, tom smiling to himself. your brother watched you with a confused look, but brushed it off as he looked over at his best mate.
âgirls,â he sighed, shaking his head, âhow was your night, mate? heard you leave your room.â
tom thought about how he snuck into your room last night, his heart dropping. he didnât know, right? there was no way. he made sure you two were quiet.
âwas good,â he said, nodding, âwant some eggs?â
haz shook his head, ânah, âm good,â he scrolled on his phone, âbut, if youâre screwing my sister, at least donât do it on the kitchen counter. this is where we eat.â
he wasnât mad. he knew the two of you had been eyeing each other for years.
tom dropped the egg into the frying pan in shock, choking on air as he cleared his throat, âwhat? no, weâre not-â
âi think you forgot we share a wall, mate,â haz laughed, âjust disinfect the counter, would ya? im going to take a nap since the two of you kept me up all night.â
NOTE: the color black can be associated with strength, formality and SOMETHING HIDDEN.
SUMMARY: something hidden between you and tom is unveiled to your older--and very protective--brother, harrison. [INTERACTIVE IMAGINE]
âHey,â Harrison appears in the doorway to your bedroom, wiggling his phone for you to see your shared messages throughout the day. âI got your text...everything alright?â
His question halts your furious pacing, yet triggers a churning ball of regret in the pit of your stomach. Your sock-clad toes begin flexing apprehensively, as do your fingers.
You finally breathe out a small, âyeahâ in response. But Harrison is less than convinced as he studies your gaze set to the floor, and your teeth gnawing your bottom lip. âI just didnât know when the time would be right to tell you this. So I figured sooner rather than later, you know? But if youâre busy right now then thatâs fine. We can talk later--â
âY/N,â your older brother approaches you cautiously and sets his hands on your forearms to steady their intense shaking. âWhatever it is you need to tell me, Iâm all ears.â Eventually, he helps you to steady your breathing, and you advise him to take a seat on your bed while you figure out how to exactly tell your brother that you have been dating his best friend for half a year in secret.
âO-okay,â you start, âI just wanted to thank you first for letting me stay with you and the guys here this summer. Itâs been great getting to know them better and hanging out with you more.â Harrisonâs eyebrows cinch together in puzzlement but he nods, nevertheless.
âOf course, Y/N. You donât need to thank me, Tomâs the one who set it all up.â He chuckles. You spare a laugh of your own, but it comes out forced.
âItâs great you mention Tom!â You point a finger at him. âBecause I was actually curious about somethingâŠâ
âYeahâŠâ He beckons you to continue, leaning forward from his seated position.
âJust a quick hypothetical for you,â waving your hand nonchalantly, the question finally slips off your tongue, âhow would you feel if he and I were...you know...uh, together...romantically?â The query is clumsy as it reaches the air, its graceless cadence hardly intelligible from your point of view. And you cringe when Harrison takes more than a few seconds to process your words and search for a valid response to them. And when he finally does, your heart stops.
summary: harrison made it clear that his greasers were off limits but he never mention tom being in that equation.

The early morning light belaboured the simple earthy hued cover, fluttering the pages in the book with itâs breeze whilst you made the morning brew. The radiances of the sunrise outed the outline of the diner, creating a peaceful place where folks old and young could spend an hour or two being oblivious to their struggles. You saw many compainers, rich men running from their debts. Poor men using every ounce of their change for a fresh brew of coffee to start another day of misfortune.
Tom licked his lips, savouring your beauty into his mind. He cracked a smile, swirling around in his chair, seeking an answer. He crashed his palms onto the counter, before smuggling a small laugh off his lips. âAs many times as you like, princess.â
Rolling your eyes at his flirtatious tactics, trying hard to not show the excitement he controlled with a simple wink or syllable. You dispense his longing need with a quick access to glance at your cleavage, knowing full well of his desires. âThis is the last time, Tommy.â
Rolling your eyes at his flirtatious tactics, trying hard to not show the excitement he controlled with a simple wink or syllable. You dispense his longing need with a quick access to glance at your cleavage, knowing full well of his desires. âThis is the last time, Tommy.â
âYou say that every morning for a year, doll. And, everytime we have the same conversation. Starting to wander if that dream of yours is turning into a reality. You remember, darling?â
You sneered at him, sticking your tongue out. âI was a little girl, Tommy.â
âDoll, it was a year ago.â
You rested your elbows on the counter, cupping your cheeks as you trailed your eyes to meet his whiskey driven pupils. âAnd like ya said, it was a dream.â
He hoisted himself up a little, trusting the countertop to balance his frame as he came closer to you. He gently placed his finger under your chin, lifting it up slowly to meet his gaze. âIf only, darling. If onlyâŠâ
You let the lump in your throat devour, as Tom brushed his other finger across your lips. You didnât break your contact, but freely allowed Tom to dominate your body. You responded well to his touches, allowing him to explore your features that got men crawling but sent them away with one word you havenât used on him yet.
âWhereâs ya crew?â You questioned, breaking the humidity that circulated the two of you. Tom licked his lips, removing his fingers from your touch. He suddenly created an unpleasant earl of shivers that ran through your body. You exhaled a light sigh, which Tom immediately noticed and hid his smirk with the rim of his cup.
âOn their way. Why? Ya getting tired of me?â
âNever. Donât they ever ask you why you come to the diner early?â
Tom shook his head, âYou concerned about me, princess?â
âNope but, i'm sure you donât want that pretty little face to get ruined.â You grinned, resting your waist on the shelf admiring his tight fitted top that shaped his abs perfectly.
âYou think Iâm pretty?â
âDoesnât everyone?â
He shook his head, taking another sip but pacing himself this time around. âThatâs not my question.â He waited with an air of expectancy, toying with his buckled ring. âI said, Do you think Iâm pretty?â
âWhy are you so adamant to know if i find you pretty?â
âRelax. Iâm just teasing, princess. We all know the answer.â
âDoes your ego really need to be bigger than it is?â
Tom chuckled, dishing out a 50 pound note. âItâs the only thing I have left, sweetheart.â
You saw the bill string out of his pocket , slowly caressing the worth in his grip. âI donât need the charity, Tom.â
Tom ignored your comment, carelessly placing the bill into the jar. âSpend it wisely, doll.â
Following the eccentric encounter you had with Tom, you were still busting around the diner trying to unhinge the urgency of his touch. You hated being flustered by men, especially men who roamed with your brother. Harrison warned you from the start to never get mixed up with his crew under any circumstances. He did everything in his power to make you tough, vigilant and have perfect aim which prevents you from getting help from his crew.
Tom, however, was an expectation to Harrison due to being best friends since diaper days. They were inseparable, and it didnât take long for the three of you to be friends. Harrison never really picked up on Tomâs flirting, he just saw it as Tom warning people that you were off limits.
Your friend, Betty always kept you intact when Tom came to visit as she was the only other one who you trusted, also being Harrisonâs girlfriend. Betty would lie and tell you that she really is looking out for you but being her friend for almost 10 years you knew she had to for her boyfriend's sanity.
âYou doing okay, babe?â Betty asked, resting her chin on your shoulder. You hummed, concentrating on the toasted sandwich to transform into a soft golden brown hue. The aroma would make its way through the diner, announcing that breakfast was over and that lunch was being prepped. The warm chatter along with the warm bread blended together to create a friendly atmosphere for the customers; which made cold winters feel warmer.
The raucous gale that opened the diner door invited a soft siren, strong enough to make the customers pause their conversations to embark their curiosity. Yourself and Betty watched as the greasers swayed their boots into the diner, rummaging through the blocks of chairs before situated themselves into their claimed booth, parallel to the door but close to the bathroom.
âDo they always need to make an entrance like that? They do realise that it gets old after a while.â You whispered into her ear, causing a laugh to leave her lips.
âLet them have their fun. You gonna serve them?â
âItâs your boyfriendâs crew, you do it.â You argued, turning your frame back towards the kitchen. You heard the irritated sigh come off of Bettyâs tongue, and you winked at Mr Delmair because you secured yourself immunity once again. Once Betty made her way over, she was immediately engulfed in a tight hug from your brother which irritatingly turned into a make out session.
Cursed to keep looking, your eyes locked with Tomâs, the soft expressions of his earthy pupils made you drown in warmth. Tom held the gaze, smirking at the motion of where your hand was situated. He seductively licked his lips, eyeing the ponytail that allowed your beauty to roar.
Tom excused himself, walking his way towards your presence. âI guess I won that staring contest.â
You snort, tilting your head to the side so you can admire his features. After a few seconds, you knew he caught on, so you handed him a fresh batch of coffee to avoid conversation.
âYou know me so damn well, doll.â
You again rolled your eyes, something you frequently did when Tom was around you. âItâs just a cup of coffee, Tommy.â
âIt always starts with a cup of coffee.â Tom grinned, taking the pot from the counter. He made a strange turn to the left, allowing your gaze to meet his shiny black jacket. He saluted with his two fingers and went back to the booth, acting as nothing happened.
A sudden familiar touch startled you. Betty gave you an apologetic look, gripping your shoulders to calm the nerves. âYou good their babe?â
You quickly nodded, straightening your dress to hide the sweat from your hands.
âIs anything going on between the two of you?â
âWho? Tom? No way..â You stammered, giving Betty a convincing smile but, her expression didnât follow.
âThe fact you said his name means Iâm somewhat right.â
You scoffed, walking away from the conversation you didnât want or need to have. You rested your hands on the thick paged book, hoping this could be a way to avoid this particular conversation with anyone, not just Betty.
âI just want to be careful. Tom is a complicated fella. I don't want you getting dragged into his mess".
You tried flicking through the pages, but the tone of Bettyâs concern ravelled something inside you. Out of frustration, you slammed the book shut, gaining the attention of the greasers, including Tom and your brother.
âI'm careful. I wish you and my brother would trust me. Itâs just the same old crap, I donât like Tom and he doesn't like me. We are friends, now drop it.â
Betty nodded, chipping away the scarlet red nail polish to stable her frustration. âIâm sorry... Iâm just trying to look out for you.â
âI already have Harrison, I donât need my best friend to become my guardian too.â You snapped, which again caught the eye of Tom who was ready to examine the situation. However, this time around you didnât meet his gaze, but you knew his eyes were on you.
âI just want you to be my friend.â You whisper, fiddling with the loose hem on your apron. âAs much as I like you being Harrisonâs girlfriend, I just miss you being my friendâŠâ
Betty frowned, pulling you into a tight embrace. She began to flood your hair with several apologies. âIf you want, you can take off? Iâve got things covered here.â
You nodded, releasing yourself from her embrace. âThanks, Betts. Iâm sorry about before.â
âDonât sweat it. Iâll see you tonight!â
You smiled, handing her your apron. You quickly snatched a freshly baked croissant and headed out.
âWhat happened?â You snigger at Tomâs perfect timing, you gyrate your body, letting the thrills on the dress expose your skin.
âWouldnât you like to know.â He prided towards you, plucking the croissant out of your hand. He masticates half of the croissant, tugging on the remains.
âSuch a pig.â You laugh, pulling the baked goods from his mouth.
âArenât ya gonna tell me? I thought we were besties.â He gleefully smirks, and watches you take a jot of the baked good.
âPlease donât ever say that word again.â You cringe at his remark, but he just continued saying it.
You grumbled a fine and Tom stopped his irritating act.
âShe asked if there was anything going on between us.â
Tom smirked, tilting his head. âIs there?â
âWellâŠâ You paused for a long time. You can see the tense look in Tom's eyes, as he watches you bite into the croissant. âNot my type, bestie.â
âI call bullshit.â He yelled and with that response, you twirled around and ignored the calls from his mouth.
When the white passage of daylight had gone, and the shadows of the eventide had sprung. The dry soil that embedded your house was radiated with oleaginous muscular greasers known as the Kingstons. Each member was just as bad as another. Some only joined to be protected and others joined so they could get chicks. Each boy got along, worshiped your brother and Tom like they were royalty which made things for you a little harder.
Unfortunately, being the only person to still be in school you always missed out on cookouts and parties. You watched your yard being lit, and the flames rising boldly against the black sky. The red, orange and yellow ball of rage roared upwards eating its way through the wooden base. Plumes of grey were buffeted into your bedroom, which began an unpleasant growl to your stomach.
Once you heard the splatter of the burgers being compressed onto the silvered grill, your ravenous appetite receded on finishing your english paper. You sprawled down the stairs, landing straight into Tom who cowped his drink onto your jumper.
âFuckin hell, Tom.â You chastised at his clumsiness.
âIt was an accident.â He assured, sending you a light smirk. âIf you werenât such in a hurry then none of this would have happened, princess.â
You groused at his cocky reply, pushing past him to retrieve some napkins. âWait. Just um, wear my jacket.â Tom theorized as both of you stood there awkwardly. Tom awaited for you, but happened to grow a cheeky grin when he saw a glimpse of your bra.
âUm, y/n..â Tom paused, only allowing you to roll your eyes.
âTom, seriously just for a second be quiet.â Tom threw his hands in the air, not even bothering to warn you.
âSuit-â âNice boobs, y/n.â One of the Greasers interrupted as he fetched another bottle of beer.
âWait, wha-- TOM! Why didnât you say anything?â You whined, snatching the jacket off him.
You quickly wrapped yourself up, and gave Tom a dirty glare. âYou told me to be quiet.â
âI-never mind.â You exhale, twisting your body round to get a beer. Tom lifts an eyebrow, watching you take apart the lid with your teeth.
âShould you even be drinking?â
âShould you even be here?â
Tom was perplexed by your answer, and vanished before you could get another word out. Being an Osterfield meant your mind was astute when getting what they wanted. You peeped your head though the window and snatched a couple of beers, heading straight to your bedroom offering sweet, innocent smiles.
âNight boys.â You simpered, looking pleased with yourself.
You were laying on your stomach, flicking through the textbooks that were neatly scattered on your bed when you heard the laughs from downstairs. You spent the whole night trying to not think about Tom or his witless remarks. You let your eyes close for a brief second, enjoying the notebook as a head rest.
You heard his voice from the end of the corridor, laughing at something that probably wasnât even funny. You tried to ignore the chattering, especially the false laugh that rolled off one of the girlâs lips. Your mind fell back to the books, but a sudden knock startled you.
âIâm busy.â You implied, but another knock appeared straight after.
âOff limits.â You hiss, but the creak of the door allowing the light to invade your room didnât listen. The room suddenly smells of grease and a strong scent of the Liz Claiborne curve for men. You didnât even need to turn your head to see who was accompanied by the door, you knew that smell very well.
âWhat part of Iâm busy and off limits, donât you get Holland?â
Tom took that as an invitation, closing your door straight after. He waltzes himself into your room, with a plate of four burgers. âAre you going to accept the two burgers I managed to get you or going to be a little brat?â
âBacon?â
âExtra baconâ He corrected, and tapped your thigh to make some space for him.
You flashed him a big grin, and kicked your legs in excitement as he handed you a burger. âGod, this is delicious.â You moaned, wiping the ketchup stain on your lips.
âIf that got you moaning, pleasuring you would be a simple task.â He sniggered, taking a full bite of his burger, winking at your reaction.
âYou think about pleasuring me, holland? Is that even allowed, hmm?â You smirked, taking a long bite following a nice loud moan.
Tom tried to ignore the sounds, shifting a little in his maximum space to not show defeat. He wasnât going to let a 19 year old power over him, he forbade it.
âNot so cocky now, are ya?â You teased, propping up your body and slumping next to his.
âI hate you.â Tom mumbled, snatching the beer from the night stand and drank the remains of it.
After you both teasingly ate your burgers, you instantly got back work. Pulling your books over your exposed legs allowing Tom to fiddle with your camera, you began to study. However, every few minutes loud huffs would break out and Tom would try and see if he could help you.
âDo you need help?â Tom asked, and manoved the book onto his lap. He scanned over the pages, and hummed peacefully whenever he understood something which made you quite irritated.
âHow can you possibly understand that?â You groaned, crossing your arms with a pout of embarrassment.
âItâs easy. Youâve read the book right?â
You nodded, âI have. But, I still donât get why we have to over analyse over a stupid farm? We get it, Lennie wants to tend the rabbit.â
âThatâs not the point. You need to go more deeper into why Lennie wants the farm? Why is the farm his happy place? Lennie is such a complex character that nobody understands because of his weight. You need to go deeper.â
At first, you thought he was humouring you about knowing so many about Of Mice and Men. But, when he went onto a full analysis on Curley's wife you got the sense that Tom actually was an intellectual in other things than women.
âFirstly, that was really hot. Secondly, do my paper.â
âThanks and no. You do your own paper, and Iâll check it.â He said, voice more than a little stern âHow about I give you a short massage to ease the brain? Would that help you, doll?â
You hum in approval, grinning stupidly at the bargain you just got offered. Tom prompted you to get between his legs, and made sure that your hands stayed on either thigh. He propped himself up, and tried to sense the tension in your neck.
âKeep the moaning to a minimum. I donât want people thinking we are doing it. Can you be quiet, doll?â
His breath lingered on your skin, causing the tiny hairs on your skin to stand up in desperation for his touch. You cleared your thought, wanting to not give Tom the satisfaction that a simple touch, or breath could embark your need for him.
âYou ready?â He whispered into your ear, and you obeyed with a nod.
âGood girl.â
When you felt Tomâs touch it was exceedingly gentle at first, his long fingers tracing lightly over your skin. Your bedroom was quiet, and the noise coming from outside was soon blocked out. You inhaled deeply, and found a nice happy place to go to get your body distracted. Tomâs palms pressed lightly in circles over your shoulder, slowly elevating downwards to your bra line.
âCan I take it off?â He whispered, and you nodded. He unbuckled the bra, watching the waistband loosen your breasts. Tom coughed in panic as he saw your boobs rest on your skin, and watched how your body felt free. Tom repeated the same pattern, a few times as your moans and groan would pick up whenever he touched your lower back. Every area he tried to loosen the tension you gave a soft, quiet moan which was music to Tomâs ears.
The physical sensations of him was enough for anyone to not see the anticipation of both of you longing for each other. You were lying that you felt closer to Tom, something so intimate could really mould a friendship into something complicated. The silence in the room made the offer more personal that Tom can almost see the emotions that would fall from your face. However, what made your heart swoon was the care that Tom had to make you feel better, it was something so cheeky but gentlemen like to do.
Tomâs hand paused when his hand resigned in the same spot as he started, he leaned down and kissed the back of your neck, stating that he was done. It was a simple, harmless touch but you automatically spinned around and kissed him, in thanks and appreciation.
Tom didnât protest or move, he simply allowed you to show thanks. You slowly pressed Tom back against the pillow, situating your body on his lap, and placed another kiss on Tomâs jaw. Tom allowed his hands to work on your shoulders, pressing his thumbs into the knots below your neck that caused a moan to escape from your lips. Tom gasped, tensing a little as you began to nibble on his neck, making his hand fly onto the lower part of your back.
The kiss deepend and his hands wandered, towards your breasts that fit so well with his hand. You hissed at the coldness of his rings but Tomâs slow movements and the trust your body had allowed Tomâs glacial rings to satisfy your needs. You buckled your hips, and Tom groaned in pleasure but slowly pulled his lips away from yours.
His hands were still cupped on your breasts, but slowly left and were now placed on your waist. âWe shouldnât do this.â
âYou started it.â You nagged, climbing off his lap.
âI know and I shouldn't have.â Tom listlessly said, picking himself up from your bed. You knew that it was wrong and wasnât really in the mood to start this conversation. You watched him retrieve his jacket, and wore it with pride. You glared at your surname that was printed at the back centre of the black leather jacket.
âOnce done, give it to me at the diner tomorrow.â He whispered, and closed the door before you could even respond. Suddenly, the light that entered by itself left as soon as he did. Your room now was lingered with drunken laughs, and cigar smells. You closed your window, and flopped on your bed screaming into your pillow to relieve the tension.
When the school bell rang, the end of english was over. Mrs Dunphany handed everyone back their papers. You werenât going to hype yourself too much as Tom notes and tip went out the window. When you saw the disappointment on Mrs Dunphany's face after she handed the kidâs test before you, you knew that you fucked up.
However, you got a kind smile and a pat on the back. â100%. Well done, Miss Osterfield.â
âWait seriously? That little shitâs advice actually was useful.â You whispered to yourself, as you made your way out of the school. âClever son of a bitch.â
âSo what did you get?â Tomâs neediness was getting rather annoying as you refused to embark on his ego even more.
âI passed.â You simply stated, trying to write down an elderly order.
âOkay. But what score did you get? I deserve to know.â He bragged, tugging on your apron to try and get you to pay attention to him.
â100%â You hissed at him which in response, he twirled you again praising you.
âGod. Iâm so clever.â He teased, placing you down on the floor.
âYeah, next time you wanna get horny for Lennie, Iâll give him a call.â You smirked after apologising to the edlerly couple.
âNo worries, dear. Itâs sweet that your boyfriend cares so much, reminds me of my dear Hank.â The old woman chattered, causing a slight blush on your cheek.
Thankfully Tom already left just in time as you knew deep down that Tom would never see you as anyone but his best friendâs little sister. So, to play out your fantasy, you thanked the couple and gave them a faction of fabricated lies to fill the slight hole you felt burning in your heart.
As the warm ambiance swept facilely through your hair, you fumbled your jumper with chagrin. You propel your body forward, regretting every step you took to get to the till. Luckily, it was night and no one was around to deem you or humiliate you with the lecture of purchasing the item.
âMay I get the--â You were cut off but a stack of snacks slammed on the counter.
âHow much will this be?â He questioned, not even acknowledging you. You huff and glance at the hand. It was remotely familiar, and you squint your eyes shut hoping he wouldnât look your way. âAnd whatever the lady wants.â
Your eyes widen, shaking your head at the lady. She furrowed her eyebrows, not understanding the signal you were trying to give her.
âItâs fine, Tom. I can get it myself.â You hissed, but he didnât budge.
âWhat did you want?â
âBirth control pillsâŠâ you whispered but Tom nudges you to speak up.
âBirth control pills.â You yelled, dropping your head onto his shoulder with embarrassment.
Tom let out a strong exhale, nodding to the lady to fetch the pills.
âYou having sex?â
âWhat is it to you?â You snorted, watching his smirk grow.
âMake sure he respects ya, yeh?â Tom clarified, paying the lady in full. âIâll see you, princess.â
You smiled back at the lady, walking away with Tom. âWhere are you going?â
âSomeoneâs gotta work. Canât have a pretty girl going hungry right?â
You shrugged, âI guess. I-I thanks for the pill.â
âGuessing you donât want me to tell your brother?â
You nodded, âPlease.â
âOur little secret.â He winked, and left you there alone in a store again, with no clarification of the night you both shared.
The affluent streets were scattered with expensive mustangs and white picket fences. Tom observes the roads from the sooty, bygone windows trying to pick out what he would have if was just as rich. He appreciated his life, the freedom he managed to bargain with his parents that soon enough had no acknowledgement of their kid as they spent most of their time arguing. His smile once faded when he started to see the familiar streets that he shamefully called home. It was polar opposites to the valley, but Tom always argued with himself that his end had more history and heroic stories. The valley was changing everyday, new plants would be replaced as if nothing happened would confuse him as, to him the valley became more artificial every time he would pass it.
Once the bus pulls to his stop, Tom breaks into a run, dashing into the alley behind the stores to avoid any confrontation. It was past midnight, and Tom didnât have his crew around. He lightly ran his hand down the bricks, electrifying his veins to carry more strength as being out in the open was always a call for trouble.
As Tom went to turn the corner, his phone vibrated. Out of curiosity, he checked his phone as no one usually texted him this late at night. When he unlocked his phone, he was startled that out of anyone, you would be the one to text him.
you: get home safe, pls.
Tom grinned, locking his phone. âAnd she said she didnât like meâŠâ He whispered, throwing his phone back into his pocket. Tom maneuvered himself away from the bright lights that dazzled his frame, highlightly the grease in his raven hair. He couldnât tell who the car belonged to but with the knowledge and partial interest with cars, he knew it didnât belong to the Kingston Jets.
The London Sharks was what they were referred to. A preppy figure looking type that always had tight vests and wore italian golf shoes. Tom, minding his business letting his fixation focus on getting home in one piece. He wasnât remotely in the mood to scoorn off the Sharks due to his lack of concentration. Tom was mindmapping a simpler method, one that didnât involve violence or crime just his devilish charm.
âHey pretty boy. You're not gonna say hello?â One of the boys screamed out, honking frequently to advocate Tomâs dark side. Tom's vexed face tightened as more words were hurled at him, ones he had all heard before. His adrenaline was picking up the speed and his knuckles were prepared to take charge but Tom, revoked hiding his fists in his jacket.
âTell Y/N she is pretty hot for a greaser.â The eloquent tone in Charlieâs voice snapped the rage that was ready to erupt inside Tomâs chest. Tom swiftly turned around, adjusting his leather jacket, placing it at a jaunty angle to allow his arms to move freely.
He raced towards the sharks, passively throwing punches all around to anyone who got in his way. He collided his fists with Charlieâs jaw, not letting him have any mercy. Tomâs anger furied around his face, tiny veins peeped out of their hiding to alert the others that itâs war. Before Tom could collide his fist to Charlieâs nose, a strong pair of arms tightly swarmed around his waist pulling him away. Charlieâs crew had Tom surrounded, gritting his hands stills so Charlie could throw his punches at Tom. The punches to Tom felt weak but the rings that loosely dangled on their fingers were the main force of the sharks being tough.
Just as Charlie was going to finish Tom off, a police car came screeching down the hill, a knight in his white charger, black tired squealing on the grey turmac as the car abruptly stopped at the sight of the fight.
Tom knew that the police werenât his friendly companion as Tom himself had a fair share of crimes that could convey to jail time. Luckily, the sharks belted away before the officer could get a closer look on them. Tom clenched onto his stomach, squinting his eyes as the illuminated lights blinded his vision.
âWhatâs going on there, son? you causing trouble?â
Tom shook his head, conveying his injured state to get him off the hook. The officer shrugged his shoulders, unsure of what to say. âDonât get too much blood on the streets.â
âLove you too.â Tom winced, as he now had to use the bricks to support his weight. Tom knew that he couldnât possibly go home to his parents, due to the lack of hospitality, so Tom had no choice to pay a visit to the Osterfield.
The cold wind makes the cuts feel raw and the moonlight has them grow bright. He felt like a billboard advertising the cons of being a working class citizen. The comfort of his jacket and the warmth of the street light made his self worth still have pride. Approaching the Osterfield household, his eyes met a light from the inside. A sihollute quickly invaded the light, giving Tom a sense of relief that Harrison was awake. Tom clutched onto the barbed wire, using his remaining strength to work his way up on the roof. He was quite familiar with the rookie holes and loose nails as this wasnât the first time he had climbed through Harrisonâs window.
He clamped his hand against the wall, using his other to lift the chipped white paint window to give him access to the carpet his feet suddenly craved. Tom busted himself in, falling directly face first on the carpet. The sihollute he saw in the window was indescribably more feminie but it could just be his vision. Tom peeked his eyes open again, scanning the room to find bunches of vinyls, romantic comedies books and a red silky bra trashed under the bed.
Tom cursed, knowing exactly what room he was in. He lifted up his head to spot yourself lounging in just your underwear. The black pattern set with tiny red roses made his bruises hurl with pain and let out a grunt. You were still unaware of his presence which gave Tom a little reward to enjoy the view before he got caught.
As you were about to lean forward letting your boobs fall, Tom coughed not wanting to push his limit.
âHey doll.â Tom teased, chuckling right after as he watched you trip over a hairbrush.
You stand there like a deer in headlights. Nothing seemed to function. You were at a loss for words as Tomâs shadow invaded your area, still unaware of his cuts and bruises.
âSprout?â
Sprout, he hasnât called you that in years. You scrambled for a blanket, covering your body.
âWhat are you doing here, perv.â
Tom dragged his body towards the light, allowing you to see his vulnerable side. You gasp at the cuts and bruises. You scoffed the blanket away, accepting that Tom has seen you and used your motherly instincts to help him.
âWho did this to ya, Tommy?â
Tom grumbled, placing his head between your chest. You gently brushed your fingers through his hair, humming a sweet tune to calm his state. He tightly caressed your waist, wanting you to know that he was grateful for you.
âWe gotta clean ya up.â You whispered, rubbing his back slowly to allow his body to know that it was going to get treated. Tom nodded, letting go of your waist and removing his head from your chest. He looked up at you, his eye beginning to swell but he used his finger to trace the tear that melted into your cheek.
âWhy are you crying, sprout? Iâm the one who got battered.â
You were afraid to make eye contact with him. You were just getting used to Harrison's bruised up face but, something about Tomâs makes your heart sink and blood boil.
âTommy, what happened?â
âNothing important.â Tom mumbled, sitting beside you. He laced his hands with yours, as he brushed his thumb against your knuckles. âPatch me up?â
You sniffled as you still couldnât bring yourself to look at him. You let go of his touch, bending yourself to the floor to retrieve the first aid kit. Tom smirked, as he watched how obedient you were.
âYou're gonna have to take your shirt off.â
Tom lifted his head a little to meet your eyes, âYou gotta take it off for me.â
You signed, getting up from the floor and slowly climbing onto him. âDonât even say a word, Thomas.â
Tom smirked, closing his eyes as you began to cut his top apart. His body was built nicely, a visible V-line was the first thing your eyes ran too. The silence in your room, synced with the tension you both shared at the diner. You made yourself comfy, sitting beside him.
Out of habit, he lightly gripped your thigh, excusing the pain he felt as you began to clean his cuts.
âYou boys seriously need to stop looking for fights, itâs bad enough Harrison gets into them but you Tom? I donât like seeing your pretty face busted.â
He looked at you with a sombre expression. His face began to tense, the stinging liquid of âi told you soâsâ were burning through his skin. âSo you do think iâm pretty, hm?â
âDonât push it, Tommy.â You hissed, as you amended his cuts. Each bud stained more than the last, you could sense his guilt but his witt was still there.
âYou know you are the only one who is allowed to call me that..â
âYour other dames donât call ya Tommy?â
Tom bit his lip, at the sound of disbelief you gave him when it came to women. Tom knew he was known to have dames full at his feet but, hearing you saying the claim made him irritated.
âEh, they hardly stick around.â Tom answered, grinning as he saw the smile leave your lips.
When you gave him the all clear that he was patched up, Tom levitated his body up and his hands found their way to your lower back.
âThanks, doll.â
You shrugged, âAnytime.â
âCan I sleep here? Iâll behave.â Tom promised, tracing his fingers up and down your back. The urge you had to kiss him was there and you knew he felt it too. It was pretty clear when you chose to not cover yourself and allowed Tom to see you in this state.
âYou can. Iâm gonna put on a shirt.â You said, removing your scent and body off Tom. He whined at the coldness you left him, letting his tired frame sink back into your sheets. He got himself comfy, and discreetly watched you put a white t-shirt on.
âNo shorts?â He teased, opening the covers for you. You happily applied your body into the sheets, they werenât as warm as you hoped but you were thankful.
You stretched your arm to close the light, and a sudden arm securely pulled you away from the lamp. You chuckled at his neediness, letting him feel dominant as his pride was taken away for a good half an hour. You felt your body being pushed closer to his, which you didnât mind one bit. You allowed him to rest his nose on your back, hearing soft snores escape his lips.
âNight, Tommy.â You whispered and felt yourself going into a deep slumber.
As the week passes, you havenât seen or heard from Tom. His presence started to feel unfamiliar and cold that made you quarrel with every man that tried to hit on you. You stupidly, at the start of every shift, made sure that a fresh batch of coffee was waiting for him but, when you saw the milkshake shaped clock hit 6:10am, you knew Tom wasnât going to come.
You always return your thoughts back to the night where you both tangled your legs together, and felt safe in each otherâs arms. It also felt as though you almost imagined it, but when you found his silver ring with an anchor attached to the centre, you knew that it wasnât a dream but an unexplainable reality.
You never allowed his touch to leave your body, nor the coldness of his ring draping around your stomach when the sun rose. Each waking morning, you oddly still felt his arms wrapped around your frame whispering how much he appreciates you for looking after him.
Betty swore that she saw Tom in the diner once but he never stopped to say hi. Harrison, also started to feel a bit iffy about Tomâs disappearances and blamed it on him being quiet as his recorded wasnât looking great.
You forced your legs to work, telling Betty that you would much prefer to work the night shift so you can enjoy the sweet silence that you devoured whenever your parents would fight and most importantly not see Tom. Betty, at first, didnât like you working alone at night afraid of who could come by but you told her that one of Harrisonâs friends would be present.
You were now, gazing at your bright friends of the moon that watched over you whilst Ben got trapped into reading, Gone with the Wind. The pattern of the night sky was so fixed but still, glowing with confidence as their pride invaded the diner.
Suddenly, the inky black sky was provoked with a blaze of brilliant blue, moving quickly through the sky painting a perfect picture to capture. The comet came so sudden, almost considenantly to evoke some hope into your dismal days. As the long tail of icy particles parted, you made a wish. A vaguely simple wish that only the gods would grant if you caught them on a good day. You closed your eyes to complete the wish to only be cut off by a cacophony ring.
âDelmar's Diner?â You irritatedly said, twirling the plastic line around your fingers.
âHeâs what?â You screeched. âIâll be right there.â
When you truculently shoved the police station door open, you didnât strain yourself from communicating with Tom. The repressing force that Tom tried to convey on you didnât work but made you more exasperated. You heard his excuses for the remaining of the walk, blocking out each call and apology.
âSprout. Just fucking listen to me.â He roared, knocking the trashcan down to release his anger.
It startled you, but you refused to turn around.
âIâm sorry, please.â His voice dampened when he stared at your jittery state.
âDonât just walk away from me. Iâm trying to apologise here.â He wailed, trying to catch up with you.
You terminated your walk, spinning on your heel to face him. He was there, present in your life for the first time in a week. You shoved your hands inside your apron, shrugging at his pitiful apologises.
âDo you even know why you are saying sorry?â You said, as he moved forward.
His lips quirked disbelievingly. âHear me out?â
You beckoned a nod, titling your head to hear the tacky cheap tale he was about to fabricate. âGot a minute, Tommy.â
Firstly, he smiled at the nickname. To him, it was a road to redemption. He then ran towards you plunging you into a hug. His tight muscles wrapped around your waist like he did that night, his breathing hitched onto your neck creating the same feeling you felt that night. You were reliving that same night but this time, you both were clothed. As you felt his grip tighten around you, you knew that one more breath or stroke would make you instantly forgive him, so out of remorse you pushed him off.
âYou gotta do a lot more than that, Tommy boy.â You snarled, watching him fan out his jacket.
âLook, I know this doesnât look good. And, Iâll pay you back. I promise, but I just need you to not tell Haz. I canât have him worrying about me, alright.â Tom pleaded, as he fooled around with a rock.
âYou serious Tommy? You think thatâs why Iâm mad at ya? Because of your fucking devotion to my brother?â
Tom furrowed his eyebrows, playing along with the lie as he knew the apology you wanted. He was just afraid to express it, infact, he didnât know how.
âWhat do you want from me, Sprout?â
âTo be a man.â You yelled, maneuvering your body so he could watch you disappear into the night.
âLet me at least take you home? I wonât forgive myself if i let you wander the streets at night.â He yelled, jogging right up to you.
You longingly smirked at him, âKeep this up and ya get back in my good books.â
âYou are enjoying this arenât you, Sprout?â
You licked your lips, keeping your voice to a minimum. âYou got that right, tommy boy.â
Tom has never been devoted to earning someone's forgiveness. He was struggling, and he hated not being in control. It made him feel weak, vulnerable and open feelings he kept closed for most of his life.
It was something about the way you told him off and the tone you gave him that sparked unwanted feelings. He was at his breaking point, trying to do everything he could to make you forgive him. He wanted to just vocalise his apology but that wasnât what you wanted. It was showing that he was sorry, and it did take him approximately three days and one rom com to figure it out.
He went from extreme in the space of two days, giving you all the attention you ever wanted from him. Picking and dropping you off from school with nothing but silence. He tried to even bake but the burnt cookies were enough of a sign that he wasnât good at this stuff. He never understood why, and it hit him one night when his parents were barking at each other, he realised that neither of his parents showed him sympathy and when to call truce. It was something that he couldnât control, and he missed his chance to learn.
Now he was present in the diner. He watched you sit comfortably in the booth. Tom sat morosely contemplating at the greaser who took his spot. His aloof judgement was seen by all customers, young and old. From afar, you vacantly at him, ignoring his glances. Tomâs muscles were clenching with annoyance every time Brett made you laugh. The cackle that rolled off your lips was owned by him, and he hated sharing. Tom holds his breath, pursing his lips together to steel himself from going over there, and taking what is. Now, you were laughing at a lame joke, something to do with psychics. He knew that you loved physics, but Brett found out from that perfect score that was pushed aside like Tomâs existence.
This was his punishment, watching you cradle into someoneâs arms alerting him that he was temporary. Tom, to you wasnât temporary, even though he could have been, he stayed after every fall and argument. His gaze stays on you, but fell when you took off which sinisterly brought a smirk to Tomâs face, only to disappear when you whoosh past him if he was another bystander. He waited for you to say something, anything to put his mind at ease but, you teasingly sat next to him. He gripped the cup of coffee, watching you swat your hair over your shoulder and promptly Tom looked, knowing it was conscious at.
You were exposed and he loathed that you were so confident yet so fragile. Tom before, saw you as just a little girl, playing with barbies and making his action figures marry your dolls. He watched you spring into a flower, that now was crumpled. You were growing and Tom canât handle the sanguine you sprinkled each awaking hour making it harder for him to be around you. He wanted you in ways he shouldnât. He always scared off the kids who ever looked over at you, and now he was one of those kids. Scrawling in his chair, thinking of bizarre ways he could get your attention.
A tight, ripped tattooed arm wrapped around your shoulder, just hanging loose but Tom could see the movement of Brettâs hand gliding against your chest. He knew this trick because Tom did it, and he was now disgusted with himself. With his quick reflexes, Tom clutched Brettâs hand tightly letting the irritation roll of his tongue.
âDonât make me tell Harrison.â He chastised, not even looking at your stare. He continued the squeeze, before pushing him harshly away from you.
âDonât you ever come back here.â He threatened, before taking a big gulp of his coffee.
He turned to your appalled expression, rolling his eyes at the predictable whining that he queued as soon as he sat down. âYou are fucking welcome.â
You shook your head, chuckling at his act. âYou donât ever stop do you?â
âI just saved your ass. You should be more careful.â
âYou wanna talk about being careful? Do you even remember the happy ending you got yourself? Or, the free show of seeing me in my underwe--â
Tom chuffed, cutting you off with a smirk. He was proud that you remember every detail of your encounters with him. It didnât need a saying for Tom to realise that you were his, and only his. âIf I remember correctly, you didnât retaliate. You wanted me to kiss you, feel you didnât you?â
His breath was now drowning your will to fight back. You took his hand, taking him to the back and shoving him against the wall.
âIf you like it rough, at least take me to dinner.â
You inhaled a breath, letting the consequences weigh out later. You saw Tomâs mouth open, ready to make another remark but without thinking like always, you solved everything with a kiss.
It was wet and full of lust. All the envious inside the both of you finally let loose as you both wrestle for dominance. You were weaker than Tom when it came to physical contact, he wanted to be in control. You allowed him to revert positions, and watch you squirm for his touch.
âNot yet.â He whispered against your lips, licking the bottom of your lip in knowledge that you wanted more.
âNot here, sprout.â Tom added, and lightly kissed your sweaty forehead. âSomeone like you deserves to be cherished, looked after and not be pleasured around in a dirty diner.â
âExcuse you.â You barked, pushing him away.
âI was being a fucking gentlemen. Sorry for not fucking youâ He cringed, and rightfully removed himself away from you. âIâm trying here.â
âTry fucking harder.â You spat, as you watched him exit the diner. âFucking greasers.â You added after you heard the door slam shut. You did feel slightly guilty for snapping at him. You could tell he was trying but your immaturity got the best of you, once again. Out of regret, you pulled out your phone to apologise, only to be left on read.
âPlan BâŠâ You muttered and called Harrison.
If he wasnât going to come to you, you just had to go to him.
âI donât fucking understand girls. I seriously donât get them.â Tom complained whilst entering the tyre shop. âThey are all about taking it slow, treat them right and when you refuse to fuck them in public, they get made at you?â He added on. âMake it make sense, Haz? How the fuck have you coped with Betts for three years?â
Harrison chortled at his friendâs outburst, spinning the spinner continuously. âGood afternoon to you too.â
Tom gave an apologetic smile, climbing onto the roof of the car. Harrison handed him a beer that was acute to their surroundings. He was going to save the beer for later but Tom needed it more.
âCheers.â
âSince when does Thomas Holland get caught up in girl drama? It sounds like you like her.â
âI donât like her. I want her, thereâs a difference.â Tom scowled and pressed his lips to the beer bottle. He snaked the liquid down, letting the cold sweats of the bootle condensed to his knuckles.
âUnderstood. Do I know this girl?â Harrison quirked, as he wrapped the dirty rag around his shoulder.
âNo. Sheâs new in town.â Tom fabricated, taking another long sip of the intoxicated goods.
Harrison noticed that each time a question was played, Tom devoured his short answers with the beer. âSo, what actually happened?â
âLong story short. I shared a moment with her, freaked out and ignored her. I then got into trouble, called her to get me out. She told me to be a man. I helped her with her homework, then rescued her from being grouped and she made out with me.â Tom paused, shutting down Harrisonâs remarks. âDidnât want to pleasure her, she got angry and now Iâm here.â
âFucking hell.â Harrison breathed, trying to soak up the drama that unfolded right in front of him. âIt seems like you both are being idiots, and choosing stubbornness to communicate your feelings for another.â Harrison adds.
Tom doesnât say anything. Completely silent as he knew if he took another sip of the beer, you would be revealed.
âThis makes me dread y/n having a boyfriend. Imagine the hassle she would unfold of herâs.â Harrison spluttered, and reached out his phone. âSpeak of the devil.â Harrison mumbled, answering her call.
Suddenly Tomâs hand started to tremble with fear. He allowed the froth to rinsed down his arm, soaking his jeans in spite. He heard the laughs coming from Harrison's mouth but that didnât certify his aroma to be calm. Once Harrison ended the call, a smile pursed on his face.
âLooks like Y/N is cooking us a meal, along with Betty. She decided it has been a while since the four of us have hung out.â
âGreat.â Tom mumbled, and regret not finishing the bottle off.
âIt will be fun. Y/N is really looking forward to this. She is making bolognese.â Harrison beamed, glancing at the tired shaped clock. âWeâll leave in 10.â
âThat clever minx.â Tom muttered and finished the beer off.
Upon the messy counter lies two aprons that you dished out from the cupboard. You had no clue to even begin to make bolognese, so convincing Betty to help was exciting at first but, realising that Betty was too inexperienced you both were in a pickle.
âI still donât get why you thought I could make bolognese? Why canât we just order take out? And why bolognese? Isnât that a bit fancy for a movie night.â
âSorry for praising you. Take out isnât healthy and Bolognese because To-- I like it, as well as Harrison.â You croaked, hoping Betty wouldnât pick up on the stumble of Tomâs name.
âOne day youâll make a questionable wife.â
âAgreed.â Harrison responded for you. You curse them both, getting back to reading the recipe. You tried to avoid eye contact with Tom, as he followed Harrison like a lost puppy, acting like he had never been in the kitchen before.
âYou girls are done soon? I need some food inside my belly.â Harrison whined and wrapped his arms around Bettyâs waist, whilst resting his chin on her shoulder.
Yourself and Tom gazed at them both, still not making eye contact with each other. You removed yourself from the scene, and began to knead the meat. After a minute, Tom couldnât handle watching you mishandle the meat that he will eat in half an hour.
Regretting every step, he made his way over to you. âI donât think you are doing that right.â Tom quirked up, standing beside you.
âIâm kneading it.â You clarified with your finger pointing at the instructions.
âHarder, like this.â Tom whispered slowly, placing his hands over your own and began to guide you. You gave him a smile, and continued the motion but your eyes werenât focused on your hands, they were fixated on Tomâs eyes.
You felt the need of your lips to touch his, the temptation was higher than usual and you hated it. It was risky, childish to result in any confrontation with a kiss or a flirty remark. Tom had the same emotion, fighting himself to not give into the desire of kissing you, like Harrison and Betty were doing. You both were strong enough to communicate through eye contact but weak to speak the emotions.
âI-I think I got it.â You mumbled as you worm your hands away from his. You didnât want to take any risks, or complicate this friendship more than you have. Tom stuffed up, nodding and returned to the other side of the counter.
Both Tom and Harrison expressed that they would take a beer, and leave you both alone until dinner was served. You didnât show any emotion, and carried on listening to Bettyâs instructions.
Eventually Bettyâs instructions became faint and along came the probing of the guilt and remorse behaviour of todayâs incident. You acknowledged Brettâs action before Tom could even say anything. You stupidly allowed yourself to be vulnerable to spite him, and make him envy. You punished your heart from being irresponsible and solving everything with a kiss or a flirtatious remark.
Of course inviting him over would just add more fuel to the flame but you loved the colours and the way it danced. You were kidding yourself that Tom nor you would stop the chase, and accept that something is happening but, you both were alike. You knew punishing him for leaving you alone that night was right but, could you blame his loyalty to his best friend? You knew you would have done the same, especially if you knew how much the friendship meant.
Bettyâs voice started to become the dominance of your mind, and brought you back to reality.
âI think we should call them in. Can you go get them?â Betty asked, and you shook your head.
âItâs cold and Iâm not feeling great.â You mumbled, excusing yourself from the kitchen and landing yourself locked in the bathroom.
Betty frowned, not even having the chance to check on you as she had to serve the boys. When everyone was seated, you were still missing and Tom knew that it had something to do with him.
âWhere is she? This was her idea.â Harrison muttered, rolling his eyes at the drama you can convey sometimes.
âI think she is still in the bathroom, I reckon something happened today? She was all moody and sad all afternoon.â Betty informed the both, and Harrison felt a little ashamed for judging his sister.
âIâll go check on her. Probably had to do with this creep earlier on today.â Tom breathed, getting up from his chair to go look for you. Harrison felt a hunch in his stomach when Tom mentioned the creep but Bettyâs smoothing voice diverted his focus.
âSprout?â Tom whispered, knocking gently on the door. You didnât answer but let out a sniffle which made Tomâs eyes sink. âLet me inâŠâ
His voice was mellow, and soft. You debated in your mind if you really should let Tom in but, your heart strings literally forced you to unlock the door. Tom heard the click, and slowly opened the door to find you sat on the sink.
âWhatâs wrong?â Tom quietly cooed, before closing the door behind him. âWhy are you crying?â
You sniffle with a perfect timing shrug.
âWe donât have to talk about it if you donât want to.â Tom stated and impeded himself between your legs. He used his hand to wipe away the tears floundering from your eyes, and pressed his forehead against yours.
You slowly traced his jawline, cupping his face with your hands and lifted his head up to face you. He saw the hurt in your eyes, and blinked to show that himself, was a bit emotional. You wanted to confess, apologise but the words wouldnât form but the note of your legs wrapped around his torso invoked a conversation.
He leisurely hauled you closer to him, inviting his presence on your skin. He lightly kissed your temple, and embarked a trail, starting from your lips and pursed to your stomach, gazing his thumb across. He felt the shiver and tightness you showed him. He smirked knowingly that your body was made for his touch, and the look in your eye confirmed his theory. You tried to close your legs, to not show the neediness but your fingers now deep in his skirt said otherwise.
âDonât fight itâŠâ He murmured, and unfurled your bare legs.
âTommy.â You breathed out, and watched as his fingers found your panties. He draped his thumb over the silk, lowing his trail each second. Once he felt the moist on the fabric, he pressed his thumb down to your already sensitive clit and evoked a moan.
âMy godness, sprout. You are soaked.â He sniggered, and allowed you to respond by digging your nails into the thin fabric that was covering Tom.
Tom lightly pushed aside the fabric, marvelling at the wetness. You felt a small shiver, and gave Tom a nod. He saw your eyes close but with another push to your clit, you opened them.
âKeep 'em open.â Tom urged as he wanted you to see what real pleasure was like. He pushed two fingers into your soaking heat while his thumb played with your clit, sending your mind to oblivion.
Tom watches you carefully, taking in every movement you make and admire how well you took him.
âGod, you are so tight.â He moaned against your neck, letting his breath summon you to his coven. He took small movements, allowing yourself to adjust to his fingers. You let out a harsh moan, as you felt his ring glide around your walls provoking your clit to release.
âQuiet, sprout.â He whispered in your ear as he pushed a third finger into you. You just moan, barely registering his rules.
âTommy, please.â You cried, and felt the pace picking up every second. You were beginning to lose control. Each thrust he made, provoked your will to release.
âGo onâŠâ He purred and observed the expression when you released all over his fingers. Tom pulled his fingers out, revealing how wet you were for him.
âWanna taste, pretty girl?â He mumbled, gravitating his fingers to your mouth. You slowly nodded, taking his fingers well in your mouth. Tom grunted at the technique you used, and abruptly removed his fingers as he wouldnât be able to control himself.
Groggily you rested your head in his chest. âTommy, Iâm sorryâŠâ
âSorry for what, sprout?â
âEverything. Being stupid and immature.â
Tom signed, and felt his heart clench at your words. He should be the one to apologize, not you.
âYou have nothing to say sorry for. Itâs my fault for starting this and being a dick about it. Itâs hard, sprout. You mean a lot to me and I would hate for us to fall out.â
âI do?â You whispered and he hums.
âOf course. I just know that this isnât what you think this will be. I just need time to wrap my head around all this.â
âYou want this?â You asked, lifting your head up to face him.
âI do. Trust me, I do. Itâs just complicated at the moment. I just need to actually sit down and think this through.â
âI wish it wasnât this difficult.â
âMe either, pretty girl.â He signed, engulfing you in a hug.
âWe will figure this out, okay?â
âOkay.â
âI think we should get back. They are probably wondering where we are.â
You shrugged, and greedily wanted to spend all of eternity in his arms. âOr, they are making out and forgot about the bolognese and us.â
âSpeaking of bolognese. Iâm ready to eat what my girl cooked for me.â
âDonât get your hopes up. Betty did most of it.â You laughed, jumping off the counter.
âIf all turns out horribly, I can think of a way you can make it up to me.â
âDream on, Holland.â You said with a chuckle, leading him out of the bathroom. âIâll be out in a second. Iâm gonna clean up.â You add and Tom stops, turning to face you.
âLet meâŠâ
âBut yo--â
âLike you said, they are probably making out.â
Turning 19 wasnât such a big deal to you. You werenât fussed if you didnât have a massive party or got drunk with a couple of your friends. It was just another year of remembrance that you have spent another year trapped in this town. You loved it, for sure but itâs not what you really wanted. You were smart for your age, achieving the best marks and managing to read over 10 books in two months.
It was the day before your birthday and Betty was on your tail. Each time you were on her radar, she would pout and complain about you not having a party. You tried to suppress her, and reassure her that you will think about it but Betty was an impatient woman.
âAre you sure you donât want a party? You only get to be a teenager for one more year. You should make the most of it.â She allured you by sliding a small cupcake with sparkles to try and lure you to agreeing.
You thanked her for the effort but shook your head. You watched Betty throw her head down onto the counter, laughing at her childish tantum. You turned to look over at Harrison, who was just as asmused as the rest of the greasers at the free comedic show.
âBetts, baby. If she doesnât want a party, then she doesnât want one.â Harrison called, climbing out of the booth to give Betty a hug.
You looked over your shoulder, feeling a tad guilty on your part for shutting Betty down. You turned to face the pin board, and saw a poster of a drive inn event tomorrow. You instantly ripped the piece of paper and slammed it right in front of Betty, who shot her head up.
âLetâs do this. Itâs simple, and they are playing dirty dancing.â
Betty furrowed her eyebrows, picking up the paper. âA drive inn movie? You want to spend your birthday in a car watching dirty dancing?â
âEr.. whatâs wrong with dirty dancing, babe?â Harrison argued, removing his touch from Bettyâs waist.
You and Harrison exchanged looks, grinning as you both secretly loved watching that romcom. It was the only thing that kept you guys sane when your parents would fight.
âYou too? Seriously, Harrison? You are the leader of a motorcycle street gang and you go nuts for Patrick Swayze?â
âHe even wanted to be him.â You laughed, receiving a glare from Harrison.
âI told you that in confidence.â He frowned before snatching the cupcake from you.
Betty exchanged looks to the both of you, watching as you both squirm for the cupcake.
âYou both do realise that thereâs a whole fresh batch of cupcakes right behind you?â Betty teased, crumbling the paper and aimed for the trashcan.
âBetts. I love you, I do but, can we just go to the drive inn? Please? I just donât want to make a big deal out of thisâŠâ
Betty huffed, accepting defeat. âFine, okay. Iâm still dressing you up though.â
âNothing too flashy. I want to be comfortable..â You grinned, as you took apart your apron.
âIâm taking my break. Have fun.â You said, and left Harrison and Betty to have a mindless argument about dressing you up.
While you sat on the low wall, swaying your legs back and forth admiring the nature around you. You always loved taking breaks, as being stuck in a diner and surrounding yourself with different artificial smells it could really drain you. As you bit into your sandwich, you saw a freshly waxed green mustang park right in front of you. You could hear their words slur out of their mouth. You just chuckled in amusement, as they were struggling to climb out of the car.
As you passed your eyes, locking onto one face. You noticed that he changed so much, he was broader and looked a bit cleaner than before. Charlie and yourself went way back, first crush and first friend before Betty came along. He was born a greaser but, once his mother remarried, he had no choice to follow. You were sad at first, cried almost every night that your one friend had gone and left you here. But, as time went on, he was just a distant memory to you and seeing him now, was starting to change and you didnât like it.
âLong time not talk, y/n.â Charlie said, walking up to you. You didnât engage with him, and took another bite of your sandwich.
âStill the same as I left ya.â He grinned, wrapping his arm around your shoulder.
âCharlie.â You said, flicking his hand away. âAre you still trying to be a shark? We both know that you still have grease on your hands.â
The other two boys looked at Charlie, struggling to understand your claim. You instantly catched on, hatching a little plan to provoke them.
âYou boys didnât know that Charlie was a greaser? He was all for the Danny Zuko vibes. Isnât that right, Char.â
He grunted, shaking his head as he tried to put on a front. âA word, please.â
You happily accepted, wiggling your hands to the others before Charlie forced you to follow him. âWhat you playing at, y/n?â
âIâm just telling them the truth.â You spat. âYou shouldnât be ashamed of where you came from.â
âIâm not. I was a kid. I donât even remember anything.â He said, scrunching his nose.
âDonât lie to me. You remember everything.â You said, gently pushing him.
âI was 12. I didnât even know that my life would change. I didnât ask to be rich, we had to get out of there.â Charlie explained, keeping his voice low so the others donât hear him.
âIt hurt you know. Watching your best friend just leave. It was harder to watch you see me as a stranger, every time we passed in the halls. It hurt.â
âYou seem to be pretty fine now. You got yourself a questionable fella.â
âWhat fella?â You asked, regretting it instantly.
Charlie sniggered a laugh, dusting the dirt off your shoulders. âOh sweet naive little lamb. You donât think I know about your little affair with Tom?â
âHe is a friend. Thereâs nothing going on.â
âA friend?â He laughed, whistling his friends to come over. âI donât think Tom would call you that.â
âCharlie, stop playing.â You hissed, watching his friend circle you. âThis is ridiculous. He is my brotherâs best friend.â
âThen, watching him get beaten up because of one comment about you really signifies, friend.â
You paused, retracing the night that they referred to. âIt was you? You did that to him?â
âAh, she remembers. Iâm guessing your friend came over to yours after? Hm? Did you patch him up like you used to do with me? Iâm guessing he gave you a little reward for being such a good minx.â He paused for a moment, watching you squirm in his touch.
âDid you feel his needs? Being a little who--â You cut him off with a spit.
Charlie, piked up a laugh. âYou fucking bitch.â He said before colliding his hand to your face. Moments after Charlie felt the stinging sensation in his hand, he realised what he did. He immediately let you go. His feet froze, disgusted to even look down at his hand.
âDrop dead.â You whispered, walking away from him.
His thoughts were snapped when he saw a Yamaha YZF R1 09-16 Arrow Exhaust skirt up in front of you. He had a bunch of roses strapped to his side but they instantly dropped when he made contact with you.
You were hurt and Tom detected that instantly, which made something flutter inside of your stomach.
Tom ran to you, pulling you into a tight hug as you cried into his chest. He turned his head, making eye contact with the same boy who jumped him the other week. He watched as the other boys got into the car, driving away leaving Charlie to defend himself.
âSprout? What happened?â Tom whispered, but you didnât say anything. You shudder your hand towards the sharks and Tom didnât need an explanation he knew exactly what happened.
You felt a sudden rush of coldness when Tom parted from you. You scrutinized Tomâs chase, trembling nervously that he would be wounded again. âTom, just leave it.â You yowled, as you began to run after him.
âListen to your girlâŠâ Charlie stammered, trying out to run Tom.
But, Tomâs anger and frustration only got stronger. âWhat the fuck did you do?â Tom exasperated, tackling him to the floor. Tom aggressively grabbed Charlie by his polo shirt, and threw a punch to his nose.
âIt was an accident. I didnât mean tooâŠâ Charlie begged, covering his face but Tom was too quick for the boy.
âAn accident? What did you do?â He growled, slamming his body onto the floor.
Charlie didnât say anything, he kept quiet.
âDid you not fucking hear me? I said, what did you do.â Tom teethed, kicking his ribs. âLook familiar aye? You like thatâ He laughed, continuing his action. âWhereâs your fucking pussy now?â
âENOUGH, TOM.â You screamed, trying to pull him back. âHeâs had enough.â
Tom kept to his feet, shaking his knuckles. âYou fucking sharks think itâs okay to come into our area, cause trouble and think you can get away from it? If you ever think, see or speak about her. Iâll find you and finish you off.â He threatened, colliding his fist to Charlieâs face once more before letting him go.
âPathetic.â Tom mumbled and turned to face you.
âAre you okay? Let me seeâŠâ Tomâs voice softened, brushing his hand against your cheek. You winced at his touch, granting the tears immunity to race down your cheek.
âIâm so sorry. I should have been here fast enough. If only I came a bit early this wouldn't have happened.â Tom frowned, pulling you into his chest.
âItâs not your fault.. itâs mine for pushing Charlieâs buttons.â
âDonât you dare blame yourself for a man hitting you. No man should be violent towards a girl, itâs not right.â
âHe mentioned you and said some things and I-- â You stammered, but Tom assured you that you didnât need to explain.
âItâs okay, princess. Itâs okay.â Tom hushed, rocking your body back and forth. In his embrace, the pain for a moment stopped. You felt your body press in, soft and warm. Tomâs dirty white t-shirt smelt like home, and weirdly this is the love she explained to Charlie. You inwardly thanked Tom for scaring them off, pressing a soft kiss to his chest in which Tom smiled. Once you calmed down, you released yourself from his embrace wiping the runned down mascara off your face.
âI should get back in.. Betty is probably worried.â
Tom shook his head, âNo. Iâll take you home. Iâll text Haz.â
âYou sure?â
âPositive.â He said, planting a small kiss to your head. âGo get on the motorcycle.â
You did as you were told, something Tom loved seeing. You walked towards the parked vehicle and felt your shoe stomp on a bouquet of roses.
âTommy.. What are these?â You said, picking them up.
Tom looked up from his phone and groaned at the roses. âThey were supposed to be for you but they got ruined. Iâll buy you new ones.â
âNo. I like it. Thank you, Tommy.â
He grinned, shoving his phone into his pocket. âYou ready?â
The daylight had dwindled to a barely perceivable lighting that made this thing between Tom even more confusing. Each wall had something to do with bikers, art and a small little note that was above his headboard. You squint your eyes, using your arm as a ladder to see the familiar note.
Tom was too occupied with his console to even look over at what you were doing. You slowly read the note, cringing at the words that were written. You tried to read the sentence but the writing was slightly disformed.
âWhen life gives you lemonade, make lemons. Life will be like whaaaat?â Tom said, grinning at the tv. After he heard your laugh, he automatically closed the tv, and fell back into his covers.
âHow did you know?â You laughed, situating yourself next to him.
âYou always used to forget the saying, so one day i made you write it down. And, I guess i just left it there because strangely, over time it made sense.â
You suddenly began to fall shy, not evening responding to Tomâs statement. You stared up into his wall, closing your eyes to take in everything that was unravelling. Your heart was thumping, and your hands were clammy which made everything vertigo.
Tom, luckily was occupied with his phone to notice your contemplating mind. You trace your thoughts back to Charlieâs comment, repeating the words over and over, as you didnât take in the claim properly before.
Your tummy turned and twisted in excitement but your brain died it down, as it couldnât handle more complications to this situationship you have with Tom. It wasnât confirmed, nor labelled which made sense since Tom said he needed to figure things out. You were an impatient person, and it had been two weeks since Tom fingered you.
You really didnât need clarification on Charlieâs statement but, if Charlie was right, you were ready to risk everything because if Harrison taught you anything it was that, if someone is willingly to fight for you, they are worth the hassle.
âTommy? Can I ask you something?â You queried, modifying your body so it was facing Tomâs.
He mirrored your movement. âAnything.â
âWas Charlie the one who beat you up the other week? And, donât lie to meâŠâ
He didnât say anything.
âWhat did he say?â You bit your lip with anticipation.
Tom bit his lip, brushing a strand of hair away from your face. âHe made a comment about you and I couldn't let him take it.â
You slowly turn his body back to its original position, letting Tom sink into his sheets. He furrowed his eyebrows as you positioned yourself on his lap. You slowly place your palms on his chest, watching him unriddle your actions.
âSprout, whatcha doing?â Tom whispered, and glances at your hands roaming down his bare chest. You wiggle yourself lower, tugging on his black belt.
âJust let me thank you.â You whispered, leaning down and placing small gentle kisses all of his chest, kissing more intently as you made it to his collarbone. You begin to suck on his skin which earnt Tomâs hands, find his way to your ass, and grips it lightly.
âYou donât have to thank me like this. I wouldnât mind a simple bolognese..â
âI know but, I want to.â
Tom didnât fight it anymore, he simply allowed himself to distress and only let out a handful of words.
You snickered a laugh, and commended him for surrendering. âIâm going to take care of you.â You begin to tackle his chest, again and allow your tongue to slowly move south. Tom bit his lip and his breath got heavy as he watched you with pure need, groaning at the movement of your tongue and praising words.
You stare at him, contemplating to tease him or not. Out of his bravery, you removed his jeans, along with his boxers and watched his dick spring out. You rub your thighs together and tie your hair in a ponytail. You licked your lips, looking at his huge length. Tom just shrugged, and glanced at the nerves âYou got this, baby.â Tom promised, giving you a little wink of assurant.
You nod, and without warning you swoop your mouth around his member, trying to decide the best motion to start from. Tomâs teeth clenched as he restrained himself from getting in control. Out of practice, Tomâs hips rocked with anticipation whenever you swirl your tongue around his length.
You notice Tomâs restraint, and unsteady hands and look up at him, seeing him squirm. With respect, you pushed your hands into his inner thighs, and took more of him.
âFuck.â Tom cried out in pleasure, as your mouth took him perfectly. You moan with pleasure at his reaction, and force his hips to thrust. You never really were an active person, this was probably your first time ever going all the way. You closed your eyes and began to bob your head slowly up and down his length, swirling your tongue around his tip as Tom tried to place his hands in your hair.
Tom bit his lip, looking down at you as you worked on his member, his breathing heavily, as his eyes rolled back. You stare at his reaction, feeling fulfilled with your technique. You moan lovingly onto his length, causing him to thrust up into you, you whimper but immediately adjust, allowing him to push further back. You closed your eyes, and tried to obtain his movement, not wanting to disappoint him.
You moan onto his cock, and feel his legs shake out of dismay to release. You give him an assuring nod, allowing him to realise his cum inside you. You surprisingly swallow all he gave you. Tom gave you a minute to adjust yourself, wanting to not rush you. You slowly let Tomâs length out of your mouth, and maneuvered your body to the bed nuzzling your head into his neck.
âYou did so good baby.â Tom whispered, quickly pulled his boxers up and wrapped his arms around you. You didnât respond which scared Tom but the minute he heard your soft snores, he only smiled.
âI donât technically like how short this skirt is... Harrison is going to kill me, well you.â You cringed at the looks given by boys half your age. You stay relatively close to Betty, securing your purity.
âI think you look beautiful.â
You rolled your eyes at her compliment. âWell thatâs biased because you are the one who dressed me.â
Betty signed, darting her eyes around to see if she can spot Harrison and Tom. âDo you see them?â
You shook your head, and held your skirt close to your skin before pointing them out. Betty signed, pulling your arm as she spotted the two boys at the far end of the screen.
âAnd hereâs the birthday girl.â Harrison praised, opening his arms for a warm embrace. You gave him a small smile, watching his gaze fixated on your outfit. Harrison turned to Betty and she innocently shrugged, giving him a small kiss to his temple.
âWhat the fuck is she wearing?â
âAn outfit. It looks perfect.â Betty nudged, and turned to face Tom who was relatively quiet. âDoesnât she look great, Tom?â
It took Tom some time to actually get a full view on your figure. He had never seen you like this, it was always shorts and a hoodie. He wasnât complaining but, he did feel a tight twitch in his lower half, securing his hands over his jeans to hide the actual truth. He honestly was in a pickle of how to respond to Bettyâs question. There wasnât a right answer so Tom just nodded, and moved uncomfortably in his seat.
He tried to avoid eye contact by watching the adverts on the screen, and occasionally watched what others were up too. Overtime, Tomâs warmth was suddenly stolen by your figure, as you found your spot next to him.
Tom didnât say much, and gave you a small wave.
âI hope this is okay⊠I can go sit with Harrison.â You whispered not wanting him to feel uncomfortable. You knew Tom couldnât express his true feeling of your outfit, but he never really gave you a sign that he liked it either.
âNo. Stay.â He mumbled, as he watched a few of the greasers give you a look. âPeople keep looking⊠Why did Betty dress you up like that?â
You shrugged, âYou donât like it?â
âNo no. Fuck, you look fucking beautiful. I just took me off guardâŠâ
You nodded, not really knowing how to respond.
âSprout, trust me. If Harrison wasnât hereâ He muttered, and you just squeezed his hand tight.
âI get it. You donât need to stress yourself out.â You laugh, squeezing his hand tight. Tom nodded, looking straight ahead at the screen. He gradually came out with an idea to take a good look at you without it being creepy or suspicious. When Tom was about to place his hand on your thigh, Harrison peeped over so you quickly swatted his hand away.
âSo, Y/N. How are you liking your birthday so far?â Harrison finally made a comment, just when the film was about to start.
âAsk me when the movie is over.â You whispered, taking the popcorn off Tomâs lap. Tom pouted, and watched the lights go down. He noticed that every couple was either cuddling or making out. He turned his head to see Harrison and Betty already eating each other's faces which results in the two of you throwing popcorn at them.
âThe audacity people have to disrespect Patrick Swayze.â You said, stuffing your mouth with a handful of popcorn.
âSo lady like.â Tom laughed, and copied your movement. As the movie kept playing, you noticed the soft glances you gave each other. You slowly moved your hands intertwined with his, watching a coy smile grow as he pulled you closer to him. You both were thankful that it was dark, and the majority of the people were occupied. It felt like the two of you were in your own world, where time was your friend.
âWe are probably going to head back home⊠Betty isnât exactly feeling well.â Harrison lied through his teeth. You knew they just wanted to fuck and didnât want to ruin your birthday.
âGet well soon.â You winked, knowing exactly the reason. Betty waved off the two of you, giggling at the fast movement Harrison was taking.
âAnd then there were two.â You hummed, and placed your head on his shoulder. He relaxed himself, letting you get cosy in his embrace. You both sat there awkwardly, watching the movie play. When a song began to play, Tom redirected his hand to your thigh. He gently began to rub circles into your inner thigh, smiling normally at the screen.
You bit your lip, feeling the slight moisture in between your legs. You hitch a moan, not wanting Tom to hear or even think you were aroused but a single touch. âYou wanna go somewhere warmer? I have my car parked right at the backâŠâ He whispered, and you nodded.
âIt is getting a little chilly.â You laughed, excusing yourself from the seats. You and Tom, still hand in hand walked across the lot admiring the quietness of the drive inn.
Tom twirled you around, and you gave him a full show of your legs. Tom licked his lips as he spotted the lacey black underwear under your skirt. You knew how much he liked that colour on you, and you also knew that something was going to happen.
When you both reached the car, Tom immediately slammed your body against the car, and crashed his lips on yours. He didnât even care at this point, he just wanted to show you how ravishing you looked and what it did to him.
âOpen the door.â He grunted, against your mouth, not even bothering to take his lips away from yours, his tongue leaves only to see how long he could form his words. Your brain wasnât even functioning at this point, other than the feeling inside you, wanting him. After a long second, Tom realises that his demand wasnât obeyed. âOpen the door, Y/N.â Again, but with a more husky voice. He kept his hands firmly on your hip, not allowing you to move as he fiddles with your hand for the keys. He removes his lips away from you, opening the door to pull you inside.
The carâs horn beeped, and headlights blipped as you both stumbled to the back seat. Your ass landed straight onto the cold mental of the seatbelt, and he bumped his head on the roof. Before you even got comfy, Tom loomed over you, manhandling your body to rest on the seats. He quickly slammed the door shut, and watched you undress. Tomâs eyes were fixated on your bare skin, licking his lips as he devoured the look of your breasts out in the open. You were lucky that he wasnât ripping your clothes apart but, Tom didnât hesitate at all rip your panties off you. He went down on you, with lustful eyes and kissed you. His kisses always started so soft but from the teasing you were given him, he wasnât at all going to go easy on you. Without any warning, he shoved two full fingers inside your heat, feeling the walls clench around his fingers.
âYou are so tight.â He growled, pumping his fingers in and out of you. You gripped on the front car seat, moaning his name as you felt another finger slip easily inside you.
âIâm gunna make you feel so good. Gunna make sure everyone knows you are mine.â He smirked, and watched you thrust against his fingers.
He grinned, and grabbed a hold of your left boob, massaging it with ease.
âTommy.â you moaned, grinding down onto his fingers. âPleaseâ
With a smirk, Tom went faster, blocking out the whimpers.
âPlease what?â
âI need youâ You whined, and Tom abruptly takes his fingers out, watching you cool down, and shoves his fingers back inside you.
âGod, you are taking me so well.â He muttered against your skin, leaving you several love bites.
ââM gunna.â You pant but he abruptly takes his fingers out of you, and moves his face so he was buried between your face.
âHold on, sprout. I wanna taste you.â He mumbled, and you allowed him. You moaned loudly, arching your back when he ran his tongue down your folds, slow and teasing at first. He had never eaten you out before, so he wanted to do it right. He made you hitch your breath as he flicked and coiled with his tongue and use his hands to hold your body down. Tom continued to tease you, earning himself a strong gripped to his hair. Luckily he didnât gell it, he thought as he grasped a moan.
Tom made sure to keep his dark eyes on you, wanting to watch you take him. He swirled his tongue around your folds, sucking gently on your sensitive heat. Tom could feel himself getting harder, with all the little moans and movements, you were driving him insane. Neither of you notice that within starting your rendez-vouz the window of the car had fogged up, turning the glass window into a pale dusty gray, dripping with moisture from the condensation.
With a teasing smile, Tom buried his tongue inside you, making you scream a loud moan; he knew you had a sweet spot, and soon enough invited his fingers to take care of your spot. You gripped harder onto his hair, buckling your hips while you walls clenched on his fingers and your cum was eagerly eaten by Tom.
He pulled away, licking his lips and moved his lips to yours so you could have a taste.
âGod you taste so sweet. I wish I did this early.â He grinned, praising you for how well you took him.
âTommy, I want to ride you.â You whispered, and watched Tomâs eyes light up like a child at christmas. He nodded, and helped you up.
Without so much of a warning, he roughly pulled onto his lap, and his grip found your hips. He awkwardly pushed his jeans and boxers down to his ankles; you gaze at his hard length, moaning loudly as the tip grazed your pussy.
âWhatâs the matter, pretty girl? You want to ride it that badly?â
You bit your lip, nodding eagerly. âI do.â
It was hard for Tom to contain his growl that escaped his throat when you answered him clearly. Without even a second of hesitation, he aided you in lining yourself up before he let out a loud, pleasuring, curse when you went down on him. You found your arms gripping his shoulder as you began to slowly grind your hips, getting familiar with his size.
âFuck, you are taking me so well.â He praised quietly. âYou look so fucking good riding me, sprout.â He coyed, harshly thrusted more of his length inside you.
You didnât want to let out loud moans, or screams just in case someone comes, so you dropped your head against his neck, and even though you were begging him for more, the moans that escaped your lips were loud enough for the stars to hear you.
You could feel Tomâs smug smile, burning into your skin, as he titled his head to the side and nipped at your skin, leaving bright hickeys everywhere whilst he took a fist of your hair , tugging it harshly, whilst his other hand firmly on your hip. You were getting close, you could feel another orgasm coming through as Tom roughly thrusted into you, not even wanting to ever stop you from riding him. He enjoyed it too much for it to end so soon.
âIâm close, Tommy.â
Tom growled at the nickname but also knowing you were about to cum, he harshly buckedup his lips, untangling his hand from your hair in order to allow himself, again, to play with your clit. He continued to praise you, telling you sweet things in your ear. You werenât sure how much you could take it, but for you to be screaming his name, whilst you clenched around him. You both were so close, and as you both came simultaneously together you pressed your hand against the steamed- up window as Tomâs began to return from his high.
He slowly helped you off him, settling you down on the seat. He grabbed the spare blanket he had in his boot, and wrapped it around your body. He lifted you up and placed you in his chest.
âYou looked so beautiful when you were riding me, sprout.â He whispered, kissing your cheek. âYou did so well. I donât think I have ever had someone ride me that well.â He smirked, running his hand down your arm.
You didnât say anything due to the exhaustion of your moans and screams. In the silence, there was warmth. The light radiated your bodies, tracing them effortlessly. Biting your lip, you felt the brawny aroma scrape your sensitive skin, causing a slight hiss to escape.
You blushed, grinning as you turned to face him. You fell deeply into his eyes counting the small freckles on his face. You were both still silent, not a word was spoken. You both, somehow, felt what the other was feeling with just eye contact.
âTommy?â
He quietly hummed, too fixated on tracing the bridge of your nose to even concentrate.
âWhat are we?â âWhatever you want us to be.â
The grating reality of yourself and Tom ever being together desist your response. It was something youâve been longing for but the probing of guilt caused your body tense, breaking the affinity you both just shared.
Tom easily felt disquiet when he saw you sit up, and couldnât help but sympathize with you. âSproutâŠ?â He softly called, trying to pull you back into his embrace. âWhatâs got you all worked up? Did I do something?â
âYou did everything perfectly, thatâs the problem.â
Tom was addled in the reply. He still continued to stroke your arm, as it got you through many things before.
âIâm not following, princess. I thought you wanted this? I thought you wanted us?â Tom croaked, feeling slightly uneasy by the sudden change of heart.
âI do. I just canât help but think about Haz. What he would do to you? I donât want this to cause a war between you too. You are both important to me, and I canât hurt the other without hurting another.â
He swept your body onto his lap to commiserate you. He brought your hair back, and flicked away loose strands of hair before brushing a thumb to cease a tear from falling on a perfect night. You divert your attention to his loose chain wrapping the metal around your fingers to stable your heart from bursting.
Tom raised your chin with a single finger, pressing a small peck to your lips. âIt was bound to happen, angel. I donât think we could have fought this affection any longer. I canât even sleep without thinking about you. You made me feel things that I never thought someone could do to me. Those days where you were mad at me were torture. It felt wrong not annoying you at dawn about coffee, it felt weird not helping you with a math problem and it felt like everything was falling apart when you werenât somehow near me. I know I havenât been the best at showing my apology, but, the things you got me feeling, it opened something for me. It made me want to do better and not just with you but, life itself. You are that invisible string that I canât seem to let go.â He paused, as he slowly placed his forehead against yours.
âLet me love you like you deserve to be loved. I will ease it slowly to Harrison in time but, in the meantime, letâs see where this night will take us. If getting kicked out of the gang, and losing certain privileges for loving you, so be it. I have you and thatâs what truly matters at the end of the day. Iâm not losing you again, sprout.â
The fidelity of Tomâs words loiter in your mind. You soaked up every word that left his lips, and caressed his cheek. The water in your eyes felt calm, and reassuring that you had someone who cared for you. You inclined your body to converge to his own, and intimately trailed your thumb over his lip before kissing him again.

MasterlistÂ
"I don't think this is a good idea."
"Me neither."
"Please, just stay here."
You looked up to your brother and husband, frowning as you smoothed your hand over the soft black fabric of your gown.
"I am not missing the Oscars, Tom. I've still got two weeks until I'm due, it'll be fine."
You sat down on the bed and looked dejectedly at your shoes, then proceeded to throw puppy dog eyes your brother's way until Harrison had no choice but to kneel and help you put on your comfortable trainers. There's no way you're putting on your heels at 37 weeks of pregnancy.
"But what if Baby decides to come sooner? You could go into labour at any moment!"
You rolled your eyes and only raised your arms so they could help you out of bed.
"You guys are being over-dramatic. Nothing's gonna happen. We're just going to the Oscars, we'll have a good time, and hopefully, I'll leave with a little statue under my arm."
With that, you waddled out of your hotel room, ready to get into the limo.
---
"(Y/n)! It's so good to see you! You look radiant as always!"
You smiled at Kaitlyn, an interviewer you knew and trusted and rubbed your belly comfortingly.Â
"Thank you, I feel like a whale, but Baby'll be here soon so it's worth it."
She smiled and asked you a bunch of questions about your movie and how you were feeling about being nominated for Best Actress.
"But anyway, how far along are you now?"
"I'm a little over 37 weeks, they should be coming soon. Tom and Haz were actually really apprehensive about me coming here since I'm so close to my due date."
She smiled and looked over at the two men, obviously on edge.
"Well, I wish you all the best and I sincerely hope you win."
You hugged her goodbye and posed for a few more pictures before being led inside by your husband.
---
"And now, for the moment you've all been waiting for..."
Everyone watched with bated breath as Brie Larson, last year's winner, got ready to announce who would take home the trophy.
"This year's winner, and taking home the Oscar for best actress in a leading role..."
Tom took your hand and you squeezed it tight, ready to applaud one of the other amazing actresses on their win.
"(Y/n) Holland, for her brilliant performance in Two Sides of the Same Coin!"
You felt like your heart was gonna beat out of your chest, run to that stage, kiss Brie, then promptly burst to flames out of sheer, unadulterated enthusiasm. Tom was hugging you and whispering how much you deserved it while your brother gently guided you to the podium. None of them would ever allow you to go up there on your own. Always one in front of you in case you trip forward and one behind you to catch you if you fall back.
Overprotective much?
As soon as you reached Brie, you hugged her tight (or as tight as you could with a human baby house separating you), taking the award while the two boys hugged her too.
"Holy Louis Tomlinson in a crop top."
The audience laughed, most of them already familiar with your strange One Direction inspired expressions.
"Wow, I didn't actually think I was gonna win this, everyone had such amazing performances. I-It's an honour, really. Two Sides of the Same Coin was a project very near and dear to my heart, so I'd like to thank the amazing Drew Barrymore, who wrote and directed the movie."
The room erupted in cheers and the woman smiled at you from her place on the front row.
"Bisexual representation is something we don't get very often, and when we do, it's always misjudged. So thank you for showing the world what bisexuality really is, and for giving me a chance to live out my dreams of kissing lots of people. This idiot tied me down too soon."
You pointed behind you at Tom, hearing his appalled squeak along with Harrison's guffaw of a laugh.Â
In other news, the baby was starting to inconvenience you slightly. Baby had been going crazy since last night (not that you'd tell the boys) and the Braxton-Hicks were killing you, but it only got worse now.
"I'd also like to thank my amazing costars, Zendaya, Bella Thorne, and Owen Patrick Joyner, it was awesome to make out with you all..."
The crowd laughed while you felt something trickle down your legs.
Oh.
OH.
You'll never live this down, that's for sure.
"Uh, before I finish can one of you idiots call the car and get them to come to the exit please and thank you? Now as I was saying-"
"Wait, why?"
You turned to your brother and smiled innocently.
"Oh, my water just broke."
The crowd cheered.
Tom screamed.
Harrison fell to the floor, unconscious.
You sighed.
"New plan, can anyone try to wake my brother while my hus-"Â
You looked at Tom, frantically doing small back and forths between you and his best friend, unsure of what to do.Â
"-While someone else calls the car because both of them are apparently useless."
"We need to get you to the hospital!"
His terrified scream could be heard all through the room, even with no mic.
"What? No! I need to finish my acceptance speech, then go back to the hotel to shower and maybe take a little nap and then go to the hospital. My water just broke, Thomas, we have time, calm your tits."
You turned back fully to the mic, facing the hysteric faces of the crowd, very entertained by the exchange.
"Now as I was saying, I want to thank the amazing team that worked on this movie, you're all amazing and it was such a good experience. I'd also like to thank my family for always being there for me and supporting me and Haz in our acting careers. Thank you to my brother, even if he's unconscious right now, he'll just watch it on Youtube later, for literally forcing me to go to the audition. And lastly, I'd like to thank my wonderful husband, who hopefully hasn't passed out yet, for always supporting me and being my biggest rock through everything. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to deliver a baby, you know, just normal Saturday night stuff."

An Oscar in hand and another... down her legs?
(Y/n) Holland sure gave the Oscars something to be entertained by on this last Saturday. The wife of fellow actor Tom Holland looked radiant in her custom-made Valentino dress, looking ready for a night of fun.
(Y/n) was nominated for this year's Best Actress in a Leading Role award, alongside Meryl Streep, Margot Robbie, Cate Blanchett, and Tessa Thompson, but the Oscar went to her from her brilliant performance in Two Sides of the Same Coin. But it was during her acceptance speech that things got... slippery.
At 37 weeks of pregnancy, the Holland baby was ready to come at any minute, but apparently, theatrics run in the family. The actress was in the middle of her speech when she felt her water break, pausing in her talking to request a car be called.
You'd think her husband, Tom, and brother Harrison Osterfield, overprotective as they are, would be fully prepared! Unfortunately for them, and fortunately for our entertainment, they were not. Harrison went unconscious after hearing the news, dropping to the floor and earning himself a minor concussion, much to his sister's amusement

@ynholland:Â "Don't worry, when you go into labour, I'll be with you every step of the way." Said Harrison Osterfield, then proceeded to pass out, get a minor concussion, and miss the whole delivery.đ Good job, little brođ
And just when you thought she couldn't get any better, she finishes her acceptance speech with: "Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to deliver a baby, you know, just normal Saturday night stuff." We have no choice but to stan this iconic queen!
But for the news you've all been waiting for, Oscar Robert Holland (yes, the middle name is a homage to Robert Downey Jr. himself, we're not crying, you are!) was born just twelve hours later. Tom let know through a beautiful Instagram picture that he is in fact "perfectly healthy and loved by everyone already".

@tomholland2013: I present to you, my best creation to this date: Oscar Robert Holland. Thank you all for your prayers and kind messages, our boy is perfectly healthy and loved by everyone alreadyâ€ïž
But of course, Uncle Haz wouldn't stay behind.

@hazosterfield:Â Since I know you've all been worried sick and desperate to know how the baby is... I'm doing just fine, it's just a minor concussion :) Oh and my godson's great too.
And just to prove that the Osterfields are indeed the royal family of comedy, we leave with this wonderful picture posted to the happy mum's very own Instagram.

@ynholland:Â Guess I was so good they gave two Oscars instead of one ;)

so anyway, Two Sides of the Same Coin is a movie idea i got a while ago and should maybe try to write one of these days but oh well or something. anyway, iâm not gonna rant about it here cause itâd be too long but i hope you enjoyed this and donât forget to like/comment/reblog if you feel like it!
i was wondering if you could write something where the reader is either tom or harrisonâs sister, around 19-20 years old, and she hears her brother talking bad about her behind her back and she gets distant towards them and her brother realizes how much heâs missing out on (her first boyfriend and stuff like that)
sorry if itâs long or if you donât wanna write it lol it was just an idea!!
donât be sorry! i loved this! also doing pretty good :-)
i didnât really understand what was in the ending parentheticals so i hope this is what you wanted!

â
Being the established girl in a group of four boys meant a lot of things. Often, you were confused as a girlfriend to whichever boy you were accompanying, aside from your brother, of course. There was a lot of territory that came with being close family-friends with the Holland family. Especially since your brother used to be Tomâs assistant. It was expected, though, because they had been close friends growing up, especially since being in the same grade.Â
You were younger, which meant you were in between ages for the twins and Paddy. You didnât consider yourself too young for them, though, and found yourself in the presence of the boys for most of your time.Â
Today, however, you were with your friend Aisha, walking around the shops. She had to leave unexpectedly early, so you parted ways. You came into the house quietly, setting a few things as you silently made your way into the kitchen. It wasnât actually your house, but you practically spent all of your time there anyways. You heard voices coming from the den. Though you knew it was wrong, you halted in announcing your arrival, choosing to listen in on what they seemed to be joking around about.Â
âFinally got âer off your back, huh mate?â You heard Tomâs voice, followed with joined laughter from everyone else. Your mind wandered, thinking maybe Harrison had a girl he was interested in, though he never brought that up, so you stayed quiet to hear more.Â
âYeah. Out with Aisha or whatever.â
Your eyes widened as the realization dawned on you. You purse your lips and think not to assume anything just yet.Â
âThat her only her friend?â
âHonestly,â Harrison laughs in agreement. âMum said to be a good older brother but Iâm tired of playing babysitter.â They all laugh again and you will yourself not to burst into anger â or worse: cry. âSheâs gotta grow up or something.â
âMate.â Tom snickers. âShe needs a life. The boys are a tight circle; canât let no baby sister in on that.â
âYeah,â Harryâs voice pops in. âWho else would we spill disgusting secrets to?â They laugh seemingly in universal knowledge.Â
âAnyways,â Tom settles down. âGood thing we finally got the superior Osterfield alone, for once.â
You abandon your station near the kitchen door and speed walk out the other swing door. You pick your bags up quietly, making for a quick escape as your tears attempt the same. Youâre almost done putting your shoes on when Sam comes down the stairs, brows furrowed while he wipes his damp hands on the front of the shirt. You curse in realizing he was probably in the bathroom.Â
âY/N? Everything okay?â
âUhâŠâ You glance to the hallway that leads to the kitchen, wearily hoping nobody comes out. âYeah, just uh⊠forgot I had to do something. Iâll see you later.â
You quickly make your way out of the house, shoving everything into your car while you can, starting the engine with great speed. Sam was in the middle of saying something else to you on your wait out, but he never got around to finishing because you were already out of the door.Â
He didnât mention anything to the boys, trusting that you were okay and that you did actually have something to do.Â
That night, you tried not to cry yourself to sleep in your small apartment, one you shared with Aisha. When you woke the next morning, she wanted to go to the skating rink for some fun, so you agreed, eating breakfast before showering. You spent the entire day there, really, and let your phone in a rented locker, ignoring the texts from a few of the boys asking if you wanted to come over for a movie and some pizza.Â
When you did have the chance to reply â over five hours later â you gave them scarce replies in the main group chat, apologizing without much sorrow. From their end, they shook it off, knowing you probably just had other plans that specific day. The five of you were planning on going to the golfing course tomorrow, so youâd get time together then.Â
But they were wrong, because you cancelled on them, simply stating that âgolf isnât your mood, today.â Theyâd accepted that, but Harry knew that was bullshit, because half of the fun of golfing was competing with you.
They tried not to think much of your absence while they were on the field, but it was weird and awfully quiet without you. Theyâd figured it might be different throughout the week, but they were still wrong. You were with other people throughout the week while you could be, and it only made it worse for the boys because you were posting it all over your social media. Not in a flaunting manner, but just for the aesthetics. They didnât find it very pleasing, though.Â
Harrison knew something was off, knew you didnât normally just start ghosting people unless you had a real reason. He intended on figuring out what that reason was, and Tom was hell bent on learning it too. They drew up a plan to get you to come over, telling you they had a few of your missing things. You complied, figuring youâd have to face them at some point.Â
Strolling up to the house for the first time in ten days, you opened the door as casually as you could, only to be met with four pairs of eyes staring in your directions from seats in the open living room.Â
âUhm,â You cleared your throat. âWhereâs my stuff?â Tom wordlessly points to a bag on the head of the couch, and you pick it up wearily, sifting through it while you hummed. âThanks, Iâll just take this and get out of your hair.âÂ
âWell, wait-â Tom stands abruptly. âWhy⊠why donât you hang out for a bit?â
âI mean⊠do you want to?â The tone in which you speak catches him off guard for all of ten seconds before each of the boys are nodding their heads.
âOf course we do.â Harrison smiles and you nod wearily.Â
âOkay.â
However, you donât make any move in settling down for the long run, and Tom huffs. âWhatâs going on here?â
âWhat do you mean?â
âYouâre avoiding us!â Harry concludes. âWhy?â
You clear your throat, looking at your feet while your tongue clicks. âI, uhm, I heard you guys talking the other day.â
Harrison raises his eyebrows as a silent message for you to elaborate a little.
âYou said you were tired of babysitting me, so I gave you guys some space.â They all physically defeat and you begin to defend yourself. âI just thought itâs what you wanted! You donât have to explain.â Youâre unknowingly beginning to tear up, and they all know it before you do.Â
âI think we should talk.â
âNo, I- uhmâŠâ You glance out the window to your car. âI should really get going.â
âNo!â Harry pleads with you. âWe just⊠we miss you.â
You stop short in your tracks, turning around slowly. âWell I donât really think you get to. Not after what I heard.â
âThatâs not fair, Y/N/N, and you know it.â Harrisonâs stern with you, and you can feel the tension beginning to set nicely like a creamer.Â
âNone of this is really fair for me, so why should it be fair for you?â You point a finger up in their direction while you shrug offendedly. âI mean, if youâre gonna say one thing donât act like you donât mean it.â
âBut we didnât,â Harrison says.Â
âReally, we didnât. It was a stupid thing to say.â Tom adds on.Â
âYeah, weâd never say it knowing you were there.â
âOh, but youâd say it if I wasnât around?â Youâre making this more difficult, you realize, but you donât much care, because when feelings get hurt, things get difficult, and youâve come to terms with that.Â
âThatâs not what I meant.â Harrison crosses his arm.Â
âNo, but thatâs what you implied.â You jab him back with your next words.Â
âStop making this hard.â Heâs reminding you of what things were like when you were young and arguments were regular.Â
âIâm not the one that started this.â You huff angrily, hand finally gripping the handle of the front door, swinging it open and slamming it harshly with an âIâll see you all around.âÂ
Tom blinks, glancing to Harrison in question on what to do next. Harrison sighs and so does Harry.Â
âI saw her leaving that day she heard you guys.â Sam speaks calmly, almost nervously. âShe was- uh⊠she was crying.â
âOh jesus.â Tom groans, hands running through his curls. âWe made her cry, Haz.â
âI know, I know.â He speaks hastily. âCâmon, I know what to do.â He picks his coat up, opening the front door as the rest of the boys follow him out.Â
Youâre coming home that night after spending the rest of your day at the country club with some friends. Youâre alone, of course, expecting to eat dinner with Aisha, though the two of you normally dine separately because youâre always with the boys and sheâs always with her girlfriend. Things are different now, though.Â
As you open the door to your flat, you expect to find it dark and empty, but youâre met with your favorite take out meal and four very sorry boys, a large teddy bear sitting on the couch for you. You drop your bags and glance at each of them.Â
âWhatâs all this?â
âWeâre really, really, really sorry.â Harrison steps forward with an apologetic smile and three DVD disks in his hands, all of your favorite movies. âBut me especially. I love having you around⊠even if you are my baby sister.â You slap his arm playfully and he laughs. You let a smile creep onto your face at his demeanor. âWe really missed you this past week.â
You nodded, fiddling with your fingers. âIt just⊠hurt. You broke the one rule I thoughtâŠ. The rule I thought we all swore to keep.â
âI know.â He sighs, looking at the boys as everyone says it simultaneously. âThe circle before yourself.â
Youâd seemingly all established it during your first all-nighter as a group of five. You vowed to put them before your own silly ego or public facade. Obviously, some things are harder for others.
âCan you ever forgive me?â
âCan you ever forgive us?â Tom speaks up, eyes deep.
You smile softly, voice laced with feelings. âOf course I can.â You donât miss the smiles that break out onto their faces, and when everyone comes in for a group hug, they know things are going to be okay.Â

For as long as you could remember, Tom Holland had been a stitch in your side that you could never get rid of.
Growing up as your older brotherâs best friend, he was always at your house when you were childrenâ and his favorite pastime when Harrison was boring him was to break into your room and mess with you, stealing your toys or running his hands across the piano keys when you were trying to practice in peace. No matter how many locks you put on your door just to keep Tom out, he was always able to pick them.
As you all got older, he grew to annoy you in a different way, blasting loud, grungy music through Harrisonâs bedroom walls late at night or eating things out of the fridge that clearly had your name on them. Once heâd started to garner some attention as an actor, his ego skyrocketed, and somehow he became an even bigger nuisance. He dragged Harrison away from you and took him all over the world while you had to sit idly by and love your brother from a distance.
When Tom would come over now, he would talk of nothing but hollywood parties and getting drunk with the biggest a-listers when he knew you were listening. He would ignore you when he breezed past you in the hallway, and even had the audacity to go into your bedroom when you were out and smoke a blunt on your bed so your whole room smelled like a music festival when you got home; and worst of all, it was your weed.
It was sufficient to say you were Tom Hollandâs least enthusiastic fan. And it was rather unfortunate, because you were a big stan of the MCUâand secretly loved getting high and watching and re-watching the spider-man movies the most. Okay, donât make that face. They have a good storyline.
It was a regular Friday night, you were aimlessly scrolling through your phone while Harrison and Tom were getting ready to go pub hopping. Harrison always invited you, but you never took him up on his offer because you knew how flirty you got with alcohol in your system and wouldnât dare feel that way around Tom. He was notorious for taking anything nice you said about him and rubbing it in your face for at least a week after.Â
âYou know you secretly love me, babe.â
You hated when he called you babe, and he knew it. But since youâd both grown up, time had done you both a favor, and there was always an air of something you couldnât quite place your finger on whenever you interacted...the pet name just made it more interesting.
âHey, y/n, are you sure you donât want to come out with us?â Harrison yelled from outside your bedroom door, and you peeked your head out to respond.
âNah, itâs fine, Haz, go have fun. I have enough uni work to keep me busy.â
âItâs a Friday night, nerd.â
You stuck your tongue out at him and smiled. âSorry Iâm not a budding alcoholic like you, big bro.â
He laughed, blew you a kiss, and he and Tom were off.
Only about an hour later, you decided to take a break from studying and light up a joint, turning on your go-to movie for background noise- but were snapped out of your vibey trance when you heard the front door swing open, and your brotherâs loud, drunk voice.
âW-why are we h-home, you div,â he slurred, as his heavy footsteps start to climb the stairs. After a long moment, you heard him collapse on his bed through your thin walls, still stammering out his words. âThomas, I promise you, I am fineeee...â
âMate, youâre sloshed. Go to bed.â
You decided to leave them be. This was a typical occurrence- one of the boys went too hard too early, and the other had to babysit until they made it home to pass out cold, usually on the bed, or the couch, or on a good day, the floor.
A few minutes passed while you hotboxed your room, feeling amazingly relaxed, until you saw your doorknob wriggling out of the corner of your eye. Your door was locked, so you ignored it. But the knob kept twisting and falling back in place, making the whole frame shake. After a long while of witnessing a ghost try to make its way into your room, you watched your lock turn slowly and click out of place, the door creaking opened to reveal Tom, swatting at the air when a cloud of smoke greeted him.
You snapped your laptop closed before he could hear his own voice flowing out of your speakers. âTom, for the last time, stop picking my fucking lock!â You beamed your nearest pillow at himâwhich he caught before it struck himâand he threw it back, hitting you square in the face. Of course.
He flashed a cocky smile. âWhy? Itâs so easy.â
You rolled your eyes. âIâm serious! I couldâve been naked or something!â
He just stood in the doorframe, giving you a once-over in your thin cotton t-shirt and yoga pants, and kept that smug expression locked on his face.Â
âEw, Tom, youâre disgusting. Get out.â
He decidedly did not get out, instead closing the door behind him and hopping up next to you on your bed, the divot in your mattress leaving your bodies pressed much too close together. You were met with a strong whiff of his cologne and the gin he mustâve been drinking earlier. âIâll take that,â he muttered as he lifted your joint out of your fingers and took a puff, sucking his breath in as his lungs filled.Â
Your stomach filled with a dull fire and you narrowed your eyes. âDo you mind?â
He turned to face you and blew a big puff of smoke directly into your face, the notorious smirk making its reappearance. âNot at all, thanks for asking though.â
You groaned aloud. âWhat are you doing in here?â he took another draw and handed you back what was rightfully yours, smoke dissipating from his mouth as he spoke.
âHaz is pissed and Iâm bored.â
You relit the bud and inhaled for a long while, figuring youâd need to be pretty intoxicated to not smack him in the face if he tried to talk again. âWell, go be bored somewhere else. I was busy.â
He cocked an eyebrow at you and reached across your lap for your computer. âDoing what?âÂ
Oh shit. âDude, can you not-?!â you yelped, but he had swiped it too quickly out of your grasp, and opened it up to find himself paused on your screen. You laid back on your bed so he couldnât see your cheeks now flushed with embarrassment and grabbed your lighter from your nightstand. It was going to be a long evening.
He leaned himself over to catch your eye and had the stupidest, most prideful look plastered across his face. âGotcha.â
You punched him in the arm as he erupted into laughterâbut the anger inside you had been dulled by the weed and replaced with a childlike sillinessâand you started to giggle, too. You looked up into his eyes, pupils now wildly dilated and tinted red around the edges.
âShut up, Tom, youâre high,â you said in between chuckles.
âYeah? Well so are you!â
You poked fun at each other for a while, suddenly in a mutually fantastic mood. You knew in the back of your mind that none of this would be happening if you hadnât gotten stoned together, but you enjoyed the warm company anyway.Â
âWell, you gotta finish it, donât you?â he said, settling back down and fixating the computer on his lap so you could both see it.
âYou really want to watch your own movie?â
âDoll, itâs my favorite thing to do.â he smiled at you.
âGod, youâre the worst.â you felt some butterflies make an entrance in your chest that had never been there before.
He pressed play and cozied up on your bed, lying back against the wall with his arm lazily draped behind you. You pulled a blanket up onto your lap and had really no choice but to lean on him for support, neither of you admitting out loud that you were full on cuddling and not angry about it.
âHey, arenât you gonna share?â he whined, pulling at the corner of your blanket.
âGet your own,â you responded, internally high-fiving yourself for finally getting the chance to sass him back. Sure, you had your head comfortably resting on his shoulder, but that didnât mean you were suddenly friends.
You let the movie play, the two of you blowing through the joint until it was a dwindling nub. The scene where Peter has his big kiss with MJ started, and you stifled a snigger as their lips met on the screen.
Tom had clear offense laced through his words. âWhatâs so funny?â
âNothing,â you shrugged.
He sat up to look at you, eyebrows knit together in an angry pout. âTell me.â
âI just...feel bad for Zendaya, thatâs all.â you covered your mouth to keep from laughing, and his eyes rolled so far back into his head you were sure theyâd be stuck that way forever.
âYouâre such a brat,â he started, his ego finding its old place back in his voice. âIâm an amazing kisser. She told me herself.â
You looked away from him, taking a heavy exhale. âYeah, whatever, dude.â
He sat even more upright and paused the movie, taking hold of your shoulder to make you turn to him. âWhat, you donât believe me?â
You realized then how physically close you had gotten, as you could feel the syllables of his words in his breath hitting your face. He was doing that thing boys do, when theyâre thinking about kissing you but donât- their stares going back and forth between your lips and your eyes in a not so subtle way. It freaked you out to see him that close and personal, and you whispered back exactly what you knew would irk him the most.
âNope.â
He moved his face impossibly closer to yours, and you felt his soft lips lightly brush over your own. You werenât sure if this was real, or just a high hallucination, but you didnât move away. This was entirely uncharted territory.
âTooommmm!â you heard Harrison yell out from the other side of the wall. âWhere are yooouuu?! Iâm so thirsty!â Tom immediately jerked his head away from you and shook himself out of the moment. You brought your hand up to your cheek and shuddered at how hot it had become- your own body was betraying you.
âGod, heâs gonna be the death of me,â Tom said, shoving himself off the bed and walking out of your room, glancing back at you for a moment and then closing the door behind him. Just like that, he was gone, and you were left trapped in your own psyche wondering what the hell had just happened.
Over the course of the next week, things has become exponentially weirder between you and Tom. He seemed to be spending much more time at your house than he normally did, even sleeping a few nights there instead of driving the five minutes back to be in his own bed. One unsuspecting morning, you knocked on your bathroom door, annoyed that it had been shut for such a long time.Â
âHaz, if you use up all the hot water again, Iâm gonna kill you,â you said in between knocks. You were taken by surprise when it swung open, steam billowing out into the cool air.
âWhoops,â you heard a voice say, immediately realizing it wasnât your brother. You took a step backward to see Tom emerge, wearing nothing but a towel loosely wrapped around his waist. His hair was damp and clinging to his forehead, and he looked like some glowing magazine model.Â
âUh, sorry,â you stammered, accidentally inhaling the yummy smell of his soap and shampoo emanating off of his skin.
He noticed you eyeing him and a sly grin appeared as he rolled his bottom lip under his teeth. âShowerâs all yours, babe,â he said, bumping your shoulder with his own as he walked away. You were stuck in place and didnât see him glancing back at you as he wandered down the hallway.Â
Another day after that, Tom and Harrison were looking for a certain record to play, but it was nowhere to be found. âIt might be in y/nâs room,â Harrison said, sitting back in his lounge chair. âWanna go grab it?â
Tom coughed. âWhy do I have to get it?â
âBecause Iâm comfortable.â
Tom felt a mix of annoyance and nerves in his chest as he walked the short distance down the hallway to your room where the door was already cracked open. He invited himself inâexcitement faltering a little when he saw you werenât in your usual spot on your bedâand started to sift through your bookshelves.
You had been in the bathroom getting dressed after your shower, but realized you left your shirt in your closet- and seeing that Harrisonâs bedroom door was still shut, you figured it was safe to run across the landing into your room without anyone seeing you. In just a bra and spandex shorts that left little to the imagination, you swiftly made your way across the hall and walked through your door that was still open a crack to see Tom kneeled down as he shuffled through your record collection.
He heard your small gasp when you entered to find him, and swiveled around to you standing only a few feet away from him in the least amount of clothing heâd ever seen on you. He abruptly stood up but didnât move, eyes sparkling as they rolled down your body.
âWhat the fuck! Why are you always in my room?!â You were too shocked to think about finding something to cover yourself with, and put your hands over your face, trying not to die of embarrassment. Tom remained glued to his place on your carpet, clearly at a loss for words.
âTom, can you leave please-â
âRight, yeah, okay, uh, bye-â he hurried out of your room, swinging the door almost shut but leaving just a crack so he could speak into it.
â...I like your shorts.â
âTOM!â
He chuckled and closed the door, and you slumped against the wall, still holding your head in your hands. What was this sudden hold he had over you? And why did you love the way that he was staring at you?
That night, you had a big paper to complete, and you were perched in your bed typing away as it got dark. In between two songs on your playlist, you heard the familiar jiggle of a doorknob. Looking up over your screen, you watched as the metal turned in its socket, and heard a soft âcrushed itâ as the lock undid itself. Your door opened steadily and slowly, a familiar face peeking in at you.
âHi.â
âOh sweet jesus,â you mumbled.
âYou busy?â
âClearly.â
âCool.â Tom let himself into your room, shutting the door behind him and sauntering over to your bed, sitting down next to you, bouncing like a little kid and singing his words. âWhatcha doooinâ?â
âHomework,â you said, continuing to type and trying your best to ignore the way the sound of his voice was waking up something electric inside of you. He leaned into your body to peer at your computer screen, pretending to be interested in whatever you were writing about. His elbow got in the way of your hands, and you had to stop typing.
âThomas, is there something I can help you with?â
âHaz is asleep,â he said, resting his head on your shoulder like it hadnât been a week since your almost-kiss and you hadnât been actively avoiding bringing it up.
You felt jittery. âAnd?â
He gently pushed your hands away from the keyboard and closed your laptop shut, giving you a sheepish smile. âWanna get high?â
Honestly, you did.
You turned on your lamp and turned off the overhead light, put on that record he finally found, lighting a candle and then another hand-rolled blunt. This time, Tom sat upright with you perpendicular to him, your legs swung over his lap. When he made a joke, heâd give your leg a little squeeze- and whether it was purposeful or not, you were filled with schoolgirl nerves every time it happened.
All the angsty barriers built up over years of a sibling-like rivalry had come down between the two of you as you smoked together; you suddenly found all of his bad jokes funny, and he couldnât peel his eyes away from the cute way you scrunched your nose when you laughed. Every time you exchanged the blunt, you couldnât help but think about how his lips had just been on it a moment before yours. The night came and went, and you ended up falling asleep wrapped in his arms as he dozed off with his chin pressed to your forehead.
You both woke up at the same time in the dead of night, unsure of how late it had gotten. Still nestled into each other, you exchanged sleepy glances and no words, taking a moment to realize the position you had put yourselves in.Â
Tom grazed your jawline with the back of his hand and lifted up your chin with his thumb. You let your eyes flutter shut and he kissed you in the dark for one long, everlasting moment. He pulled back from you hesitantly, leaving you breathless. Did that really just happen?
âWe...we canât,â he whispered, his words tinged with sadness.
Your heart broke for him just hearing his voice. âWhy not?â
âYouâre my best friendâs little sister, y/n.â
âAnd youâre my brotherâs best friend. So what?â you were almost upset with yourself for being so vulnerable; so visibly pining after him.
âSo, youâre off limits,â he said, resting his forehead against yours.Â
âSays who?âÂ
That prompted Tom to meet your gaze again, and this time you took initiative, moving your face to his and taking his bottom lip in between yours. He took a sharp inhale as you kissed him and seemed to let all inhibition go as he put his arms around your back and pressed you into him hard, all of his pent up feelings for you suddenly flowing out of him. He kissed you in a needy, desperate kind of way, and you loved every second of it. You ran your fingers through his hair, traced his jawline, using your hands to feel every bit of him that you couldnât before. The strangest part of it all was how natural it felt- like you had been practicing for this very moment all your lives.Â
Your record had stopped spinning a while ago, the room now filled with just the breathy noises of your kisses, your contented hums and his tiny mews when you bit his lips. You were both still barely lucid, and after countless minutes of nothing but innocent kisses, you were on the brink of falling asleep again, serotonin whisking you away into dreams. Tom sighed into you, and clasped his hand around yours.
âI have to go.â
âWhat? Why?â you felt your heart preeminently sink in your chest; like you shouldâve known this was too good to last.
âI donât want him to wake up and find us here,â he trailed off, staring down at your intertwined fingers fiddling together.
âSo thatâs it?â you tried to swallow back the sudden upwell of feelings inside you.
âNo, no...â his eyes filled with some type of emotional strain youâd never seen. âI- I donât want this to be it. But I donât want things to get...messy.â
Unfortunately, you couldnât blame him, because you understood.
âCan you come back tomorrow night?â you whispered, very not ready to let his spot next to you grow cold.
âI donât know...â
You looked up at him doe-eyed, cooing. âPlease?â
He nodded, looking away from you before he completely caved and stayed there forever. âIâll come back.â
He pressed one last kiss onto your lips and slowly got up, reluctantly letting go of your hand as he left your room. âGoodnight, babe.â
Hearing him call you babe, finally free of demeaning sarcasm, made your heart soar.Â
âGoodnight, Tom.â
The door shut and you were left alone, the stillness of your room sticking out in sharp contrast with how quickly your heart was racing.
For the next few nights, Tom spent the evenings at your house with Harrison, waiting until he fell asleep to make his way next door to you. Youâd smoke together, watch his moviesâand in heated moments got a little handsyâbut you never went past kissing, though you both desperately wanted to. It was too risky having your brother right next door; and you knew all too well how paper thin your walls were. But in those secretive hours after solar midnight, just being able to exist next to Tom and letting him hold you, you were the happiest you could ever remember being. The second night he left your room to let you sleep, he placed a light kiss on your forehead after he stood up that made the whole thing feel a little too...real.
The next day, you walked into the kitchen and found Harrison at the fridge. You were in a great mood for obvious reasons but couldnât let it show. âHey, got any fun plans today?â
He turned around after shoving a handful of grapes in his mouth. âNope, got some admin stuff to do and gonna turn in early.â
âOh, Tom isnât coming over?â
âNo, I told him to take a night off. Heâs been smothering me, yâknow?â he laughed and ate a few more grapes, but then turned to you, confused. âSince when do you care if heâs coming over?â
You swallowed, unsure of what to say. âJust want to know if I need to stay out of the way,â you faked a laugh and blinked hard, hoping he wasnât paying too much attention to your facial expressions.
âUh, alright then. You two are always so fuckinâ weird around each other.â He seemed to feel that was a good way to end your exchange and walked out of the kitchen, throwing a grape at you.
You rolled your eyes at your brother, but then felt the sadness bubble up upon registering that you werenât going to see Tom tonight. But really, how long did you think you could keep this up? The feelings you were developing for him scared you, you didnât know what to make of them; all you knew was that your days suddenly seemed much grayer without him.
Nighttime came around, and you couldnât sleep, so you did the unthinkable and sent Tom a text. Your thumb shook as you hit send, knowing that there was now tangible evidence of the connection youâd developed, that it wasnât just some invention of your mind.
hey, are you awake?
T: yeah, canât sleep. you?
obviously, i just texted you.
T: shut it.
A minute passed...
T: got room for one more over there?
You smiled like an idiot at your phone.
maybe.
Less than 10 minutes later, you heard the familiar wriggle of your doorknob. You donât know why you even bothered locking it anymore.
âHey you,â he whispered, carefully shutting the door behind him.
âTom, you know you couldâve just knocked and I wouldâve let you in- you donât have to keep picking the lock.â
âOld habits die hard.â
You chuckled and stood up to greet him at your door as he unexpectedly wrapped you in an amazingly tight hug. He rested his chin on top of your head and started to sway your bodies back and forth. You laid your head on his chest and said hello to his heartbeat.
âI canât believe Iâm saying this, but it was almost hard to fall asleep without you,â he murmured, placing another one of those domestic kisses on your scalp.
âWell, now you donât have to.â you smiled. He waddled you backwards to your bed and you sat down as your legs hit the bedframe, prompting Tom to fall onto you as you giggled into his body that was now covering your face.
âOkay, goodniiight,â he said, refusing to move. You poked at his sides making him jump, and he grabbed your waist and rolled you on top of him. You instinctively leaned down so your lips could clash together in the way you were so used to, trying hard to not confess that youâd completely fallen in love with him when you finally had the breath to speak. He pushed your hair to cascade to one side of his face, and nuzzled your nose with his own, closing his eyes and humming with a smile. âMmm.â
âHmm?â
âJust happy.â
You rested your sleepy head on his warm chest, and fell into a deep sleep, letting the steady drumming in his chest be a metronome to breathe to.
~
âOh, shit. Shit shit shit.â
You woke up abruptly, the bright light of day blinding you as you tried to open your eyes to the string of expletives youâd just heard come from a familiar voice. Once youâd opened them, though, you wish you had kept them shut so you hadnât seen who had spoken.
âHarrison?!â
He was standing in your room, peering at you with hands half covering his eyes when you realized that there was a sleeping Tom underneath you.
Your brother paced in a circle and exhaled loudly. âTell me Iâm not seeing what Iâm seeing.â
You nudged Tom awake with your elbow and immediately rolled off of him, trying to hide the very obvious fact that you had slept together all night. You never let him stay the full night for this exact reason, but he had been so ridiculously happy holding you in his arms that he forgot to set an alarm to wake him at the crack of dawn and leave. You sat up straight in your bed, twisting your hair in your hands, bracing yourself for the inevitable tirade.
Tom picked his head up to see Harrison standing there with his arms crossed, and flopped his head back on the pillow. âFuck. Hey, mate.â He tried to play it off like this was the most normal thing that could happen on a Thursday morning.
âIs this why youâre always such bumbling fools around one another? Youâve been, what, fucking each other when Iâm not around?â Harrison looked like he wanted to throw up at the thought.
âHaz, no, itâs not like that,â you said, but he didnât seem convinced. âItâs just been smoking together and cuddling, really, thatâs it,â you were torn between wanting to console your brother and admitting to both him and Tom that this was more to you than that. But Tom already knew that, because it was for him, too.
Tom looked like a deer in headlights. âIâm so sorry, dude-â
Harrison walked out of the room, and the two of you were left sitting in your bed, worry filling your eyes. Only a moment later, your brother reappeared in the doorway.
âLook, you idiots, I donât care that youâre snuggling off the clockâyouâre my two favorite people in the world, and to see you together, honestly, itâs about damn time,â he started, making both your and Tomâs jaws fall slightly agape. You exchanged a knowing look. Wait, is he not mad? Wait, about damn time??
âBut I wish you wouldâve told me so we could all hang out together. I donât appreciate the sneaking around.âÂ
You cocked your head at him, sending him a loving gaze for always just wanting whatâs best for you.Â
âIâm just mad you arenât including me in your hotbox sessions, really.â He laughed and ran his hands through his hair, pulling his face back to make a wild expression.
All three of you started to chuckle out of sheer awkwardness and relief.
âCome here.â Harrison held his hands out and you both gave a mutual aww as you ran into your brotherâs arms, squeezing him tight.
âI love you, big bro.â
âI know. Now Iâm gonna get out of here before you start kissing in front of me, or worse,â he moaned, swiftly exiting your room. âThis is gonna be the grossest thing Iâve ever seen...â you heard him say to himself as he left.
You turned to Tom, still shocked at how well that had gone considering what he was assuming would happen. You swallowed the butterflies that youâd welcomed as friends and stepped back to him still sitting on the bed, putting your arms around his neck.
âAnd you,â you started, swinging your legs over his lap to straddle him. âI have to confess something.â
Tom placed his hands back on your hips where they rightfully belonged and smiled at you. âIâm listening.â
âI donât mind you calling me babe anymore.â you grinned at his face drop, obviously assuming that you were going to say something else.
âOh, and whyâs that?â he prodded.
You looked up and off to the side as you squeezed his shoulders. âMaybe because Iâm just a tad bit in love with you,â you trailed off, stiff as a board at what he could possibly say next.
âWell, babe,â he put emphasis on the pet name, âThatâs a relief, because I was worried I might be the only one falling here.â
You grabbed his face and kissed him, kneading his soft cheeks under your thumbs, whispering exactly what you knew would get him the most.

a/n - i decided to combine these two :)
- clearing out my inbox -
yours and harryâs relationship felt like it was perfect, almost anyway. you still had to tackle the idea of actually telling your families that you were dating. you were expecting your mum and sister would be over the moon, theyâd always hinted to you that harry could be a suitable boyfriend, even if you simply brushed it off at the time. you expected nikki to be over the moon too, harry had told you about her many attempts of working with your mum to set you both up.
neither of you were sure how your brothers would react, which was what you were the most scared about.
you were curled up in harryâs arms as of now, the two of you trying to think of the most positive reactions you could gain from your siblings.
âsam might be happy,â harry mumbled, having a sense of faith for his twin.
you hummed. âi think harrisons the problem.â as much as you hated to say it, it was true. the main reason you hadnât told anyone about you two, was because you didnât know if your brother would react positively.
âbut would he really be mad if youâre happy?â he asked, brushing his lips against your forehead. you sighed, shrugging your shoulders and descending into an awkward silence.
âmaybe we should just break up.â harryâs eyes widened at your words, his heart beginning to race painfully fast. it was honestly just a light hearted comment on your part, you didnât mean it, but harry didnât seem to pick up on the slight tone of sarcasm.
he rapidly shook his head, taking your hands in his, preparing to beg if he had to.
âno, you canât-â he whimpered. you sat up straighter on his bed, noticing the sudden shift in his demeanor.
he was desperately inching closer to you, needing to know that you didnât mean it. you were still in a slight state of shock, not having expected him to react so vulnerably to your comment.
âi canât lose you,â he whispered, his lips brushing against yours. your heart clenched, guilty eyes flickering up to his beautiful brown ones. your lips twitched into a smile, shaking your head softly.
âyou arenât going to.â you gently pressed your lips to his, a silent apology for scaring him.
you felt bad, you hadnât meant to worry him like that, but part of you was melting with the way he was so desperately ready to fight for your relationship. it gave you hope.
harryâs sudden distress had been heard through the upstairs of the house, and coincidentally, by harrison in the next room over.
he was trying to be a good friend, coming to check on harry to make sure he was okay, he didnât expect to find his sister and one of his best friends kissing.
âwhat the hell is this?â he yelled, his eyes practically bulging out of his head. you pulled away from harry, nervously looking at your brothers almost unreadable expression.
