Broken promises *part 2* (Mob boss!AU, Tom Holland)
Requested by MyMischiefisManaged: Y/N teaches Tom a lesson about ignoring her by hanging out with Harrison more and going out to party with him. Tom notices and has a fight with her since he's jealous and doesn't want her spending all of her time with Harrison over him. Y/N explodes in return and gets mad at Tom since he's the one who started it.
It had been a week since I had yelled at Tom because he'd broken his promise, and unsurprisingly, nothing had changed. Tom had broken yet another promise and hadn't left his study much at all in the last week. And so I had been hanging out with Harrison instead. I knew that Tom didn't like me paying attention to his best friend over him, but that was the point of this. If he was going to ignore me, I was going to ignore him too. Harrison and I had been hanging out more often than normal this week, the pair of us going clubbing and going to parties when Tom couldn't. I knew that he was getting angry at the fact, but that's what I wanted. I wanted him to get jealous and angry enough to finally pay attention to me again. I headed into the living room, my lips threatening to curl into a smirk as Harrison sat on the sofa on his phone. Exactly who I needed to see.
"Hey, Haz." I spoke, making the boy look at me as he became aware of my presence.
"What's up?" He chuckled.
"Nothing much. You fancy going out again tonight?" I asked. He sighed and looked at me.
"When are you giving this up, mate?" He asked. I furrowed my eyebrows in fake confusion.
"Give up what, Haz?" I chuckled falsely.
"I know what you're doing, Y/N. Look, I love spending time with you, of course I do, but I know that you're only trying to get to Tom right now, through hanging out with me so much." He nodded. I sighed and sat down next to him.
"Look, Haz, he's been ignoring me for months. I told him last week that he got one more chance, and yet nothing changed. He's still not left his study all week. I told him that he'd regret it if he didn't pull his shit together, and so that's what I'm doing. I'm making him regret it, by making him jealous." I shrugged nonchalantly.
"I had figured that much out, but I think that you need to stop. This is only going to end in tears." He sighed and shook his head. I returned it and bit my lip.
"One more night, Haz. One more night and if this one doesn't make him break, I'll make the first move and will talk to him." I promised. He sighed again.
"Y/N-."
"Please, Haz. Apart from anything else, I need a night out with my best mate to forget about the fact that my boyfriend is ignoring me." I scoffed. He looked at me.
"Fine, alright. One more night out, and then that's it. You need to talk to Tom after this." He insisted.
"I will do, Haz. Thank you." I nodded, making him sigh as I stood up. I bit my lip as I left the room and started to head towards Tom's study. Maybe Harrison was right, maybe this was going too far. But at the same time, Tom had broken his promise for a second time, and had made no effort to change. I figured that I had a right to be a little petty. I got to Tom's study door and gently knocked before opening it. He looked up at me as I walked in, his eyes widening slightly.
"Love, hey. You alright?" He chuckled as I walked to his desk.
"Yeah. Just thought I'd let you know that Haz and I are going out tonight." I nodded as I crossed my arms over my chest. Tom's eyes wavered.
"Again?" He scoffed, his jaw starting to clench as he put his pen down.
"Yeah, again. I want to go out and have fun. If I can't do that with you, I'll do it with him instead." I shrugged. He scoffed and shook his head again as he stood from his desk, making my eyes widen slightly. So far, this was not the reaction that I had been expecting.
"I don't know what game you're playing here, darling, but it needs to stop. I'm sick of you going out with Harrison every night, I don't know why you've suddenly chosen to give him all of your attention. If it was to make me jealous, fucking well done, you succeeded. But now, you stop." He nodded, his hands pressed to the wood of his desk as he looked at me with dark eyes. My eyes widened, a scoff leaving my lips at his words.
"How fucking dare you, Tom. You're the one who started this, so don't you dare stand there and act all sad and angry that you're jealous. You're the one who made me a promise that you'd be at the club, and you're the one who never showed up. You're the one who somehow still managed to fuck up the second chance that I gave you. I love Haz like a brother, but I never would have gone out intending to make you jealous if you'd actually stepped away from your desk for five minutes to spend time with me. Don't you dare stand there, acting like you're in the right here after you've accused me of trying to cheat or whatever the fuck you think that I'm doing. You have no right to be jealous after the way that you've been treating me." I spat, my chest heaving and falling with how angry I was. His eyes widened.
"Y/N, you didn't need to make me jealous! You didn't need to be petty about it, you could have just talked to me-."
"What the holy FUCK do you think that I've been trying to do for the last month?! I've never stopped trying to talk to you, the problem is that you haven't listened!" I shouted back. He scoffed and shook his head, making me clench my jaw as I stared him down.
"Are we done here? Because I need to get back to work." He nodded. I returned his scoff, my hands balling into fists as I desperately tried not to swing for the asshole.
"Yeah. We're done here." I nodded before storming out of the study and slamming the door behind me.
Tom's P.O.V
"What the holy FUCK do you think I've been trying to do for the last month?! I've never stopped trying to talk to you, the problem is that you haven't listened!" Y/N shouted. Tom scoffed and shook his head, making her clench her jaw as she stared him down. To say that things had been rocky between the pair in the last month was an understatement. Tom knew that he'd fucked up by forgetting to join Y/N at the club, and then he'd ruined it even more by continuing to ignore her. It wasn't intentional of course, he would just start the next order of business, expecting it to take an hour, and then he'd look up to see that five hours had passed. In the last week, though, he had started to notice something. That something was that his girlfriend and his best friend had been hanging out more than usual. A lot more than usual. Y/N and Harrison had been going out to clubs and parties every night this week, and it was really starting to piss him off. Like she'd said, he knew that he had little right to be jealous considering that he had been the one in the wrong. But it had rubbed him up the wrong way the fact that Y/N had chosen to make him jealous using Harrison, and so he wasn't ready to back down just yet.
"Are we done here? Because I need to get back to work." He nodded. Y/N returned his scoff, her hands balling into fists by her sides.
"Yeah. We're done here." She nodded before storming out of the study and slamming the door behind her. Tom sighed, his heart thumping harshly in anger, sadness and jealous as he sat back down in his chair. He rubbed his hands over his face as he thought. He hated to admit it, but he was the one who had caused this. If he had just shown up to the club, none of this would have happened. He sighed and rubbed his hand over his chin as he thought. Maybe the best thing to do was just to apologise. After all, even if Y/N hadn't maybe gone about this in the best way, he was to blame for her doing it in the first place. He nodded to himself, deciding that he'd apologise to Y/N the next time that he'd see her. But first, he had to finish his work.
Y/N's P.O.V
I lay in bed, my jaw clenched in anger as I lay facing the window. I was beyond angry at Tom, I couldn't believe that he'd had the gall to accuse me of trying to cheat with Harrison. I would freely admit to trying to make him jealous on purpose, since I had been doing that, but I was never going to actually do something with Harrison. Not to mention the obvious fact that he had started this. My eyes fluttered open, my eyebrows furrowing as I heard our bedroom door open. I heard a sigh before it closed again. My eyes widened, my heart almost stopping and my mind realising that it was Tom as the bed dipped behind me. I couldn't believe that he'd actually come away from his work. This would be the first time in almost a month that I'd seen him actually out of his study. I just hoped that he was here to apologise.
"Darling." He mumbled, making me sigh as he curled his arm over my waist and leant down to kiss my neck.
"What?" I muttered as I tried not to give in too easily. He sighed again.
"I'm sorry." He spoke quietly into my skin. I clenched my jaw and rolled my eyes slightly as I turned over to face him. He gulped and looked at me, his head resting against his pillow as we looked at each other.
"You really fucked up, Tom." I nodded.
"I know, sweetheart, and I'm so sorry. I swear to god that I really will try from now on." He promised.
"Thing is, Tommy, that's what you said last time. And yet here we are." I scoffed and shook my head against the pillow.
"I know. But the only way that I can prove it to you is to show you. So, you just have to trust that I'll stick to my word this time." He mumbled, making me sigh as he reached his hand up and gently tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear. I bit my lip as I studied his face. Something about the way that he was looking at me told me that he was deadly serious this time. His eyes were full of genuity, and the way that he was gazing at me told me that he was desperate to be believed.
"You need to, Tommy. I can't stress how important it is that you do stick to your promise this time. Because if you fuck up again, I can't guarantee that I'll stick around to see you do this again." I admitted with a shake of my head. Tom sighed and nodded.
"That's okay, because it won't get to that point. No more being locked away in my study for hours on end. No more ignoring you and making you promises that I can't keep. I'm giving more authority to Haz so that obviously I'll still be the boss, but he'll be able to do more things that previously could only be done by me, so I'll get to spend more time with you. I won't let you down again, sweetheart, I promise." He nodded, his gaze flicking between my eyes and my lips as his hand gently rubbed over my cheek. I sighed and bit my lip.
"Okay. I'm trusting you with this. You know what happens if you fuck up again." I warned.
"I know, love. But that won't happen." He reassured before leaning in and gently kissing me. I returned it, my eyes fluttering shut as I returned the kiss. He broke it and touched our foreheads, his hand continuing to massage my skin as we looked at each other.
"I love you, darling. And I'm so sorry." He mumbled.
"I love you too. You're a massive asshole sometimes, but I still love you." I teased.
"That's good enough for me." He laughed, making me chuckle and shake my head as I leant in and kissed him again.
