Requested by megholland: It's been a week since Harrison and Y/N broke up and Tom has been coming over to check on her. He doesn't know why they broke up, he just knows that they broke up. He's over one day when Y/N makes a move on him and things get heated. But then she tells Tom the reason why Harrison ended it.

It had been a week since Harrison had broken up with me, and things hadn't been good. I hadn't heard at all from the boy throughout the week, and the guilt of the situation was eating me alive. The only way that I knew that Harrison was even still breathing was Tom coming over almost every day to try and be there for both of us. Of course, nothing more had happened between us in that week, apart from harmless cuddling whilst watching movies in order to take my mind off of the break-up. Not to mention the fact that I'd barely showered this week and was still in my pyjamas from Monday, but I didn't think that Tom minded. I was pulled from my thoughts by a knock on my door, making me sigh and stand up. I opened it, Tom giving me a small sympathetic smile as he stood there.

"Hey." he nodded. I sniffed and wrapped my arms around his waist. He sighed and returned the hug, his lips pressing to the top of my head as I rested my head against his chest and listened to his gentle heartbeat.

"How are you holding up?" he mumbled into my hair. I shrugged and pulled away from the hug as I walked back into my flat, Tom shutting the door behind him before following me in.

"I've been better, but the pain is starting to wear off." I nodded wearily as I sat down on the sofa. Tom sighed and looked at me as he sat down next to me.

"Y/N, I finally got Haz to open up to me about you guys breaking up." he admitted. My eyes widened, my breath hitching in my throat as I looked at him. Oh, shit, I thought. What if he'd told Tom that he'd dumped me because I'd admitted to loving the brunette boy? I didn't even know yet if Tom felt the same, and it would be too much to lose Harrison and Tom in the same week.

"O-oh, yeah? What did he say?" I gulped.

"Not much, admittedly. But he told me that he's the one who ended it. He still didn't tell me why, though." he shook his head. I breathed a sigh of relief, the panic washing away as I realised that Tom still didn't know why. Thank fuck for that, I thought as I looked at him.

"I don't want to step on his toes, Tommy. I'll let him tell you why he ended it when he's ready." I nodded as I tried to bluff my way out of the situation.

"That's fine, darling, no pressure." he reassured as he wrapped his arm around me. I returned the hug, curling into his body and resting my head on his chest as he turned the TV on.

Tom and I sat on my sofa, cuddled up together as we watched TV. I bit my lip and looked up at the boy, him oblivious to my glances as he continued to watch the movie. I sighed. All I wanted to do right now was lean up and kiss him, especially since I was now single. But I was also very much aware of the fact that Harrison and I had only just broken up, and they were still best mates. Ultimately, though, my urges won.

"Tommy." I mumbled quietly, making him look down at me.

"You okay, darling?" he replied. I nodded and bit my lip as I sat up, Tom following me with his gaze. His eyes widened slightly and he gulped as I started to lean in. I pressed our lips together, him immediately returning the kiss as his hand raised to cup my cheek. I smiled into the kiss, Tom's lips curling into a smirk as he deepened the kiss by slipping his tongue into my mouth. His hands lowered to my thighs and I squealed as he gently picked me up and lay me down on the sofa before crawling over me. He joined our lips again, my hands curling around the back of his neck and pulling him closer as we continued to make out. Our tongues fought for dominance, though his of course won as he took over the kiss. I moaned into it, making Tom smirk as he gently intertwined our fingers before pinning my hands above my head. I broke the kiss, making him look at me.

"You okay, sweetheart?" he mumbled. I bit my lip and nodded.

"I know that I said I'd let Harrison tell you why we broke up, but this is clearly going somewhere, so I feel like I should tell you." I stated. Tom's eyes widened slightly.

"Yeah, of course, love." he nodded as he sat up. I sat up too and took a deep breath as he took my hands into his and looked at me.

"The truth is that...well...we broke up because of you." I admitted. Tom's eyes widened further.

"Sorry...what?" he gulped.

"Um...yeah. Haz and I were in the spare room, kissing and stuff, when I saw you walking past the door. I pushed him off of me because I didn't want you to see us doing that. But that made him figure out that something was up. Apparently, he'd been suspecting stuff for a while." I nodded. Tom just stared at me, his mouth hanging open as he was clearly unsure of what to say.

"I...can't believe that...you didn't really break up with each other because of me." he gulped and shook his head.

"We did, Tommy." I insisted. He scoffed, tears pricking his eyes as they wandered away from me. I gulped at his reaction, a pit starting to form in my stomach at the fact that he was clearly trying to look anywhere but me. Had I made a mistake telling him the real reason for Harrison and I having broken up? I dreaded the idea that I was about to find out.

"Y/N, I-I'm so sorry, I can't do this." he choked and shook his head as he stood from the sofa. My eyes widened.

"What?" I gulped as I followed suit. He looked at me with glossy eyes, making me choke as tears also started to prick my eyes.

"I knew that we had a connection, but I wasn't going to act on it because Haz is my brother. And then I find out that you've broken up, which sucks for you guys but I see an in, and that's great. It's amazing that you also feel the same, but...you guys broke up because of me, and I can't do that to him." he shook his head. I bit my lip, my heart plummeting to my feet at the realisation that I was about to lose Tom too.

"Tommy, what we have is real. I've completely fallen for you in the time that we've spent together, and I can tell that you feel the same from the way that you look at me. Haz and I didn't have that. Please, please don't walk away from this." I cried and shook my head. He returned the shake, tears leaving his eyes too as he stared at me.

"I'm so sorry, Y/N, but I have to. I can't hurt Haz like that." he choked. I bit my lip so hard that I almost tasted blood as I desperately tried not to cry. It wasn't working, though.

"I can't change your mind, can I?" I mumbled as I looked down at my hands. I heard Tom sigh before he picked up his jacket.

"I'm sorry, Y/N. I'm so sorry." he choked, giving me one last heartbroken look before opening my door and leaving my flat. I choked, the tears freely flowing as my legs gave way and forced me to sit down on the sofa. I buried my face into my hands and sobbed into my skin. What had I done? I had fallen for Tom and Harrison had noticed, making him break up with me. And then in the same week, I had made a move on Tom but had been rejected by him too because he was too scared to hurt Harrison. I had lost two amazing guys in a week. I had lost my relationship with Harrison and had lost the potential for a future relationship with Tom, those facts tearing my heart apart as I sat on my sofa and continued to cry into my hands.

Tom's P.O.V

"Tommy." Y/N mumbled quietly, making him look down at the beautiful girl.

"You okay, darling?" he replied. She nodded and bit her lip as she sat up, Tom following him with his gaze. His eyes widened slightly and he gulped as she started to lean in. She was about to kiss him, the thought making Tom's heart jump in excitement. This was the moment that he'd been waiting two months for. Y/N pressed their lips together, him immediately returning the kiss as his hand raised to cup her beautiful, soft cheek. The girl smiled into the kiss, Tom's lips curling into a smirk as he deepened the kiss by slipping his tongue into her mouth. His hands lowered to her thighs and she squealed as he gently picked her up and lay her down on the sofa before crawling over her stunning body. He joined their lips again, the boy in utter heaven. Y/N's hands curled around the back of his neck and pulled him closer as the pair continued to make out. Their tongues fought for dominance, though he won as he took over the kiss and let his tongue explore the inside of her mouth. She moaned into the kiss, making Tom smirk and giving him an extra boost of confidence as he gently intertwined their fingers before pinning her hands above her head. She broke the kiss suddenly, making him look at her as panic started to set in. Had he done something wrong or made her feel uncomfortable accidentally? He loved the girl at this point, so he didn't want to fuck it up already.

"You okay, sweetheart?" he mumbled. She bit her cute little lip and nodded.

"I know that I said I'd let Harrison tell you why we broke up, but this is clearly going somewhere, so I feel like I should tell you." She stated. Tom's eyes widened slightly. What reason for them breaking up was so important that she'd stopped them making out to tell him?

"Yeah, of course, love." he nodded as he sat up. She sat up too and took a deep breath as he took her hands into his and looked at her.

"The truth is that...well...we broke up because of you." she admitted. Tom's eyes widened further. Oh, shit, was the first thought to cross his mind.

"Sorry...what?" he gulped.

"Um...yeah. Haz and I were in the spare room, kissing and stuff, when I saw you walking past the door. I pushed him off of me because I didn't want you to see us doing that. But that made him figure out that something was up. Apparently, he'd been suspecting stuff for a while." she nodded. Tom just stared at her, his mouth hanging open as he was utterly unsure of what to say. His heart and mind were racing as they tried to comprehend what he'd just been told. He was the reason for his best mate dumping his girlfriend. This wasn't good. This really wasn't good.

"I...can't believe that...you didn't really break up with each other because of me." he gulped and shook his head.

"We did, Tommy." she insisted. He scoffed, tears pricking his eyes as they wandered away from her. This was literally the worst case scenario. It was bad anyway since the girl that he was convinced was the love of his was dating his best friend, but now he also knew that Harrison had broken up with her because he had found out that she felt the same about Tom. He was between a rock and a hard place, the rock being his strong and undeniable feelings for Y/N and the hard place being the fact that she was Harrison's ex. It broke Tom's heart, but he knew what he had to do. Y/N gulped at his reaction and she tried to catch his gaze as he looked anywhere but at her.

"Y/N, I-I'm so sorry, I can't do this." he choked and shook his head as he stood from the sofa. Y/N's eyes widened.

"What?" she gulped as she followed suit. He looked at her with glossy eyes, making her choke as tears also started to prick her stunning eyes.

"I knew that we had a connection, but I wasn't going to act on it because Haz is my brother. And then I find out that you've broken up, which sucks for you guys but I see an in, and that's great. It's amazing that you also feel the same, but...you guys broke up because of me, and I can't do that to him." he shook his head. Every word was like stabbing a knife through his own heart, but Tom knew that he couldn't do this. Not before he'd talked to Harrison, anyway. Y/N bit her lip and looked at the boy.

"Tommy, what we have is real. I've completely fallen for you in the time that we've spent together, and I can tell that you feel the same from the way that you look at me. Haz and I didn't have that. Please, please don't walk away from this." she cried and shook her head. He returned the shake, tears leaving his eyes too as he stared at her beautiful face. The one that he couldn't have, no matter how much he wanted it.

"I'm so sorry, Y/N, but I have to. I can't hurt Haz like that." he choked.

"I can't change your mind, can I?" Y/N mumbled as she looked down at her hands. Tom sighed and desperately tried to swallow his tears as he picked up his jacket.

"I'm sorry, Y/N. I'm so sorry." he choked, giving the girl one last heartbroken look before opening her door and leaving her apartment. He needed to talk to Harrison. And he needed to talk to him now.
