The drummer (Tom Holland)
Requested by GrungeWeirdo: Y/N is the lead guitarist in a band and she has a crush on Tom, who is the drummer in her band but is in a relationship. When she's alone, she plays a song about how she's in love with him, not realising that he's listening to her. He doesn't know that the song is about him but eventually figures it out and also realises that he also had feelings for her the entire time.
I jumped around the stage, my fingers strumming the guitar strings quickly and my heart thumping in my chest as we played the music as loud as we could. I turned around to look at Tom, the extremely attractive boy slamming the drumsticks against the drums as hard as they would go as sweat dripped down his face. His curls were wet from how hot he was, making him look absolutely god-like as his tank top hung off of his body and just about showed one of his pecks. He noticed me looking at him and smirked, making me return it as he winked at me. God, how did I end up here, I thought as I turned around and ran back to the microphone to sing the next bit. I had started a band at the age of sixteen with my best friends, Tom and Harrison, and much to our surprise, it had actually taken off. Before long, the three of us were getting record deals and releasing albums, all whilst going on worldwide tours. And the entire time, I'd had the biggest fucking crush on Tom. Luckily the boy had absolutely no idea, but that also lived to hurt me considering that his girlfriend of a year came along on tour with us a lot, so I'd have to watch and try not to cry as they cuddled and kissed. I kept my feelings to myself, though, I wasn't about to fuck up all of our dream lives over something so stupid. I finished singing the last line, the crowd going wild as we reached the end of the show. I laughed and bit my lip, Harrison returning it as we put our instruments down and Tom came down from the drums. I stood in between the boys, my fingers intertwining with theirs as we took a bow. The screams from the crowd were deafening, making me grateful for our ear plugs as we bowed again before waving and walking off of the stage.
"That was amazing!" I laughed as I immediately turned to hug the boys.
"It really was, but I absolutely stink, so I'm going to get straight in the shower." Harrison chuckled, making us nod as he jogged off. I bit my lip and looked at Tom, making him laugh as I hugged him tightly again.
"It felt so good out there." I sighed in bliss, his arms tightly around my waist as he lifted me up slightly.
"It always does, love. Always feels amazing with you." he admitted into my ear as he put me down. I pulled away but only enough to look at him, my smile dipping slightly at his words. What the fuck did he mean by that?
"What?" I chuckled slightly. He gulped and looked at me.
"I, um...we need to talk-."
"Tommy!" we looked to the side, my eyes wavering as Lia, Tom's girlfriend, rushed towards us.
"Hey, darling." Tom chuckled, his hands moving away from my waist and cupping hers instead as he kissed her. I had no right to feel this way since I wasn't his girlfriend, but that hurt.
"It was an amazing show, you guys, as always." Lia chuckled, making me force a smile onto my lips as Tom hooked his arm around her waist and pulled her into his side.
"Thank you, it means a lot that you support us through this." I nodded.
"Well, I'm here for Tom, but sure, I guess that I support you and Haz, too, Y/N." she teased. I forced a laugh and nodded, my heart jumping at how much I hated this.
"I-I better go and shower too, see you guys at dinner." I nodded as I started to back away.
"See you then, darling. Great show." Tom smiled. I returned it and turned around to continue walking, tears pricking my eyes as I walked away.
Tom's P.O.V
Tom slammed the drumsticks against the drums as hard as they would go as sweat dripped down his face. His curls were absolutely soaked and were hanging over his face, but he didn't particularly care. He knew that Y/N liked them like that, and he liked Y/N, so he wouldn't bother sorting it out. He looked up to see her looking at him, a smirk adorning his lips as he gazed at the beautiful girl. She returned it as he winked at her before she turned back to the microphone. God, how did he end up here? He knew that starting a band with his crush was a bad idea, even more so when it actually took off and so they spent months on end living together. It was lucky that Y/N had no idea, otherwise that would be awkward. And then there was the problem of Lia, Tom's girlfriend of a year. If he was honest, Tom had no idea how he'd ended up dating her instead of Y/N, she'd just been a fling at a bar that had warped into her messaging and calling him non-stop. And then before he'd known it, she'd invited herself along on tour with them. And so he was here. In love with his best friend and lead musician of the band, and his girlfriend on tour with them. What the fuck. Y/N finished the last line, the crowd going wild as the show came to an end. Y/N laughed and bit her lip, Harrison returning it as they put their instruments down and Tom came down from the drums. Y/N stood in between the boys, her gentle fingers intertwining with Tom's as they took a bow before waving and walking off of the stage.
"That was amazing!" Y/N laughed as she immediately turned to hug the boys.
"It really was, but I absolutely stink, so I'm going to get straight in the shower." Harrison chuckled, making them nod as he jogged off. She bit her lip and looked at Tom, making him laugh as she hugged him tightly again.
"It felt so good out there." she sighed in bliss, his arms tightly wrapped around her waist as he lifted her up slightly. God, he loved holding her like this. It was as if her body was made to fit perfectly into his arms.
"It always does, love. Always feels amazing with you." he admitted into her ear as he put her down. Y/N pulled away but only enough to look at him, her smile dipping slightly at his words.
"What?" she chuckled slightly. He gulped and looked at her. He couldn't put his finger on why, but something just felt right about talking to her now about how he felt. He couldn't go on like this, he needed her to be his. And he was going to make her his.
"I, um...we need to talk-."
"Tommy!" they looked to the side, Tom's eyes wavering as Lia rushed towards them.
"Hey, darling." Tom chuckled fakely, his hands moving away from Y/N's smooth waist and cupping Lia's instead as he kissed her.
"It was an amazing show, you guys, as always." Lia chuckled, making Y/N smile as Tom hooked his arm around Lia's waist and pulled her into his side. He couldn't let on to either of them the fact that really, he didn't want to be with Lia anymore.
"Thank you, it means a lot that you support us through this." Y/N nodded.
"Well, I'm here for Tom, but sure, I guess that I support you and Haz, too, Y/N." she teased. Y/N laughed and nodded, the sound like beautiful music to Tom's ears.
"I-I better go and shower too, see you guys at dinner." She nodded as she started to back away.
"See you then, darling. Great show." Tom smiled. She returned it and turned around to continue walking, making Tom sigh and look at Lia.
"What were you guys talking about?" she asked, making Tom's eyes widen.
"O-oh, um, nothing." he chuckled nervously, making her shrug as they started to head to the dressing room.
Tom sighed, his body starting to grow tired as he headed towards the tour bus. It had been a long day, and now he was just ready to get into bed and sleep. Even if that couldn't be with Y/N. Speaking of Y/N, he thought as he walked towards the bus to hear her gentle voice singing a song that he hadn't heard before. Must be one that she's working on, he figured as he quietly opened the bus door and crept in, not wanting to disturb her. But then he started to listen to the lyrics.
"Eyes the colour of chocolate, waves on top of your head that I wouldn't mind drowning in." she sang softly. Tom looked at her, her back facing him as she continued to sing.
"Take me anywhere, day or night, cos all I want is you. Never leave me behind, cos all I want is you." she sang, making Tom gulp. He could tell that she was writing a love song, the question was, who was it about?
"Hands so gentle, roaming over my body in my dreams. But then I wake up, knowing that I can't have you for real, and it tears me up inside." she continued to sing. His eyes widened slightly, his heart almost stopping as his mind started to put the pieces together. Eyes the colour of chocolates, waves on top of your head that I wouldn't mind drowning in. That was the first clue. Tom's eyes were deep brown, almost the colour of chocolate, like she was singing. And as for the waves, Y/N often called Tom's hair his waves. I wake up, knowing that I can't have you for real, and it tears me up inside. The line was clearly about not being able to have whoever she was singing about, and Tom was in a relationship, so she couldn't have him. It all made sense, the thought of which made Tom's eyes widen. Y/N was in love with him. And by the sounds of it, she was just as in love with him as he was with her.
"Holy shit." he accidentally said out loud, making his eyes widen as Y/N screamed and shot around to look at him.
Y/N's P.O.V
I sat in our tour bus, my guitar on my lap as I waited for Harrison and Tom to get back on the bus. I strummed away gently, my mind starting to come up with potential lyrics.
"Eyes the colour of chocolate, waves on top of your head that I wouldn't mind drowning in." I sang softly, my fingers strumming gently at the strings as I let the words start to flow.
"Take me anywhere, day or night, cos all I want is you. Never leave me behind, cos all I want is you." I continued, Tom being the only thing in my head as I sang. After all, this was a song for him.
"Hands so gentle, roaming over my body in my dreams. But then I wake up, knowing that I can't have you for real, and it tears me up inside." I kept singing with a quiet voice.
"Holy shit." My eyes widened and I screamed as I shot up and whipped around to see Tom stood there. He looked at me with equally wide eyes as I held a hand to my chest.
"Jesus fucking Christ, Tom, you scared the shit out of me!" I exclaimed.
"Fuck, sorry, I didn't mean to, I just didn't want to interrupt. You seemed to really be in the zone there." he gulped. I returned it and nodded, my cheeks starting to heat up at the idea of Tom having heard me confessing my love for him through song. At least I hadn't said his name.
"Yeah, I was. Um...how much of it did you hear?" I asked. His eyes wavered and he nervously fiddled with his fingers.
"All of it, I think. Who is it about, Y/N?" he asked. My eyes widened further, my heart virtually stopping. Fuck.
"U-um...no one, I was just messing about." I shook my head.
"Come on, who was it about, Y/N? You can tell me." he chuckled reassuringly. I sighed and looked down, tears pricking my eyes at the idea that I was potentially about to ruin my friendship with Tom.
"You...it was about you." I admitted quietly as I looked back up at him. To my surprise, he didn't look shocked or disgusted, instead he just gave me a small smile and nodded.
"I thought that it was." he confessed in return, making my eyes widen as he walked towards me. He gently took my face and leant down to press our lips together, me immediately returning the kiss. I smiled into it, making him return it as his hands held my hips and mine moved to his face. I broke the kiss and looked at him.
"What about Lia?" I whispered. He sighed and gave me a small smile as his gaze flicked between my eyes and my lips.
"The truth is that I haven't liked her for a while now, I just didn't know how to end it. I know that that's fucked up, but it's the truth. I only started to re-evaluate my feelings for you recently, but hearing you singing that just confirmed to me that I do like you, and by the sounds of it, you like me too." he smiled, making me laugh and nod.
"So, where do we go from here?" I asked.
"I'll end it with Lia, and then I'll take you out somewhere really nice. Does that sound good?" he chuckled. I returned it and nodded as I bit my lip.
"Sounds perfect, Tommy." I admitted. He smiled and nodded again, making me chuckle as I leant up and kissed him again.
