Requested by MyMischeifisManaged: Y/N and Tom are relaxing and watching TV when she sees the photo that Tom has posted of him and Tuwaine in the pool. But with the photo, she also sees comments on it calling Tom gay and hating on him for the photo. She gets really angry and so leaves the room to do a livestream about it without telling Tom. She doesn't realise that Tom has tuned into it when she's swearing and yelling at the people hating on him. When she's done, she goes back out and realises that he heard everything.

Tom and I sat on our sofa, my body cuddled into his arms as we watched a movie and he tapped away at his phone.

"Darling, what do you think of this photo? I think that it's nice and want to post it." Tom nodded as he showed me his phone screen. I looked at the screen, a lovely photo of Tom and Tuwaine in a pool from their trip to Monaco looking back at me.

"Yeah, it's a lovely photo. Post it, it's cute." I chuckled, making Tom smile and kiss my head as he tapped away at his phone. A moment later, my phone pinged with the notification that he'd just posted, making me look at it.

"Gee, I wonder what that could be." I teased, Tom smirking and kissing my head again as I unlocked my phone and clicked onto the photo. I liked it before starting to type out a comment.

Y/I/N: So cute! X

I posted the comment and didn't think anything else of it. Until I started to see the thousands of other comments being posted on the photo. My smile dipped, anger starting to fill me as I scrolled down to see homophobic comment after homophobic comment being posted to my boyfriend's post.

Ew, don't tell me that he's suddenly gay.

NGL, I can't support him as Spider-Man anymore if he likes guys.

I liked him more when he liked girls.

I clenched my jaw, pure anger filling me at the sight of such disgusting comments on Tom's innocent photo. It was literally just a photo of Tom and Tuwaine together in the pool, and even that couldn't be posted apparently without Tom getting hate and being accused of being gay. I already knew that Tom wouldn't say anything to confront the comments, my boyfriend, as much as I loved him, was too soft and passive to confront any online hate that was thrown his way. I, however, was the opposite. I was the definition of a strong, independent woman, that personality meaning that I wasn't afraid to stand up for my friends and family when they needed it. Whilst it was very hard to make me upset, this had pissed me the fuck off. And so, I was going to do something about it.

"I, um, I need the bathroom, Tommy, I'll be back in a minute." I nodded, my boyfriend looking at me as I stood from the sofa and left his arms.

"Okay, darling. You want me to pause it?" He checked.

"You're alright." I reassured, making him nod and give me a small smile as I left the room and headed towards the bathroom. I could have told Tom about what I was about to do, but I didn't want him to think that I'd done it just to get a thanks from him, I was doing it because I wasn't going to sit back and have him be abused by homophobic assholes online. I walked into the bathroom and locked the door before clicking onto Instagram. I took a deep breath before starting a livestream.

"Hey, guys. Let's talk." I smiled, the viewers already flooding in as I started the stream.

Tom's P.O.V

"I, um, I need the bathroom, Tommy, I'll be back in a minute." Y/N nodded, Tom looking at the beautiful girl as she stood from the sofa and left his arms.

"Okay, darling. You want me to pause it?" He checked.

"You're alright." She reassured, making him nod and give her a small smile as she left the room. Tom sighed and continued to absentmindedly watch the movie, his arm propped-up against the arm of the sofa to hold his head up as he tried to pass the time. Suddenly, his phone pinged with a notification. He looked down at it, his eyebrows furrowing and confusion filling his head as the notification showed that Y/N had just started a livestream.

"What the fuck?" He mumbled, the boy very confused as to why his girlfriend would be livestreaming in the bathroom as he clicked onto it.

"Hey, guys. Let's talk." Y/N smiled, the view count already in the hundreds as Y/N started the video.

"So, as I'm sure many of you have seen, Tom just posted a photo of him and one of our friends, Tuwaine, together in a pool when they went to Monaco a couple of weeks ago. It's a nice photo, very pretty, as I'm sure that a lot of you will agree." She nodded. Tom's eyebrows furrowed more as he watched, questions filling his head. Surely, she hadn't started a livestream just to talk about his newest post.

"So, I went to comment like I always do on Tom's posts, and saw that most of the comments that had already been left were really homophobic and disgusting. Calling Tom gay, saying that people wouldn't support him anymore if he was anything other than straight, calling him the 'f' slur, really fucking disgusting stuff." She spat, making the boy's eyes widen.

"To every single one of you bigoted motherfuckers who left a comment along those lines, how fucking dare you. Fuck you. Even if Tom was gay or bisexual, there wouldn't be an issue with that, because that would be who he is! As long as he wouldn't date anyone inappropriate, which he wouldn't do because he's not an asshole, who the fuck are you to judge who he loves?!" Y/N exclaimed. Tom couldn't help but let his lips curl into a smile, his heart filling with love for his girlfriend as he watched her defend him in front of what was now hundreds of thousands of people. Tom was a lot less loud and outspoken than Y/N was, and those comments did get to him too, so he was glad that his girlfriend had the confidence to speak up for him.

"Tom and Tuwaine are really good friends, they shouldn't have to live in fear of being abused and called homophobic slurs if they're seen together! Tom shouldn't have to live in fear of losing fans if one day, he figured out that he wasn't straight and so came out as a different sexuality! He shouldn't have to avoid posting photos of him with his male friends, he shouldn't be afraid to be seen with people because of you cunts who think that it's okay to abuse him for simply posting a photo with a friend. This is what's fucking wrong with the world, the second that you people see someone who you perceive to be living life the wrong way, you launch onto them. Gay people are a thing, bisexual, pansexual, asexual, all of the sexualities are a thing and are valid, fucking get over it. Straight people don't run this fucking world anymore, members of the LGBTQ plus community are living out loud and that's the way that it should be, but then there are also members of that community who still can't be who they are, and that's because of you assholes. Every single one of you fucking dickheads who commented a homophobic comment on Tom's post, or in fact, have ever made a homophobic comment to anyone, you're part of the fucking problem." She spat. Tom watched intently, a smile now fully plastered on his lips as he watched his girlfriend call out everyone who had sent him hate over the photo. And he loved her even more for it.

"That's all I wanted to say, and I think that I made my message pretty fucking clear. Fuck me, if you guys sent that shit to Tom, who isn't even gay, I dread to think what you send to people who are out. Good for you if you're too fucking afraid to live your life truthfully, but don't think for a second that it's okay to shit on other people who have the bravery to live their truths. To everyone watching this who didn't send Tom a bigoted comment, thank you for your continued support of mine and Tom's work and relationship. To everyone watching this who did send Tom a bigoted comment, fuck you, get your head out of your ass, and grow the fuck up. It's twenty-twenty-one, not nineteen-fifty. Peace out, and fuck you." Y/N nodded before the stream ended. Tom chuckled and shook his head, his heart so full of pride for her. And he was going to make sure that he knew that when she came back.

Y/N's P.O.V

"That's all I wanted to say, and I think that I made my message pretty fucking clear. Fuck me, if you guys sent that shit to Tom, who isn't even gay, I dread to think what you send to people who are out.

To everyone watching this who did send Tom a bigoted comment, fuck you, get your head out of your ass, and grow the fuck up. It's twenty-twenty-one, not nineteen-fifty. Peace out, and fuck you." I nodded before I ended the stream. I took a deep breath, my eyes fluttering shut as my heart still raced with anger. I knew that Tom and I would soon be getting frantic calls from our agents, telling me off for going live just to scream and swear at the world, but I couldn't give less of a fuck. What I wanted to be said had now been said, and I didn't regret a word of it. I took another deep breath before unlocking the door and walking back out. Tom looked up at me and gave me a small smile as I slumped back down next to him on the sofa.

"You okay, darling? You were in there for a while." He chuckled as he curled his arm around my waist, and I rested my head and hand on his chest.

"Yeah, I'm fine." I nodded. Tom paused.

"Love, I clicked onto your stream." He admitted. My eyes widened and I raised my head to look at him as my heart started to thump in my chest. Whilst I hadn't said anything that Tom would disagree with, he was a lot more passive than me, and so I wasn't sure how he'd react to me defending him on his behalf, especially in front of that many people.

"Fuck, I didn't see you join it...I'm sorry." I gulped. His eyes widened slightly.

"Sorry? For what?! You were amazing in it!" He laughed, making my lips curl into a smile as I sat up to look at him.

"Yeah? I wasn't sure how you'd react, but I knew that you wouldn't confront the comments yourself, and so I felt like I had to say something. What they were saying wasn't okay." I shook my head.

"No, it wasn't, which is why I really appreciate you doing that for me. I agreed with every word, I agreed with your anger, all of it. What those people are saying is disgusting, but you know that I don't like to confront comments, so I really appreciate you doing it for me. Thank you." He nodded.

"Of course, Tommy. I'll do anything for you, especially defend you from homophobia." I nodded before leaning in and kissing him. He returned the kiss, his lips smiling against mine as he raised his hand to hold my cheek. I pulled away and looked at him.

"Now, let's enjoy the quiet before the inevitable shit storm that's about to hit. But no matter what our agents say, no matter what the public says, thank you. I appreciated every word that you said, and I love you for it. Thank you." He nodded.

"I love you too, Tommy. And you're welcome." I returned his nod, making him smile and lean in to kiss me again.
