#4 Tommy Thayer x Reader

"Come on Y/N, let's go shopping for dresses!", Clara begged me over the phone, making me sigh. "I already told you, I have to study for the finals! And I don't think I will even go to prom. Who would I go with anyway?", I said, concentrating on my book again. I heard her groan. "Will it kill you to have fun for once? Maybe you meet someone there who's also alone!", she said and I rolled my eyes.

"Sure, I'll just pick one of the nerds who still live in the basement of their mom.", I said and she laughed. "OK, ok. What about one of the guys?", she asked. She meant the four boys I called my friends. "Definitly not! Paul is nice, but he is a real perv, Gene will have asked half the school by now and half of them will have said yes and Eric has his eye on someone else.", I said, closing the book frustrated. "Well that I can understand. But what about Tommy?", she asked and I smiled. "I mean he is a really good friend, I might even consider him my best friend, but I think he already asked someone else.", I told her.

In reality I knew that Tommy hadn't asked anybody yet. But I don't think he would go with me, there are way more attractive girls he could ask and like I said, we were practically best friends. "You always know how to get away! Just please come with me, I need my best friend to rely on when dress shopping! I'll buy you cake and coffee!", she said and I laughed. "Alright, I'll be at the mall in ten.", I agreed and she squealed. "You're the best! See you there!" I got off my bed and walked to the door, grabbing my purse and car keys on the way out. After a short drive, I was at the mall, already seeing Clara standing at the entrance.

She dragged me into practically every store and I got tired pretty soon. In the last store, she finally found her dress and as she payed for it, I spotted a dress that I liked. I only wore baggy clothes and if I showed up in a dress like that everybodys eyes would fall out of their heads. I laughed at that thought, right as Clara walked over with her bag. "Whats so funny?", she asked, but I just shook my head. "Nothing. Am I free to go now?", I asked her and she rolled her eyes, smiling. "Yes you are nerd! Go back home and study.", she mocked me, while we walked to the exit.

The whole evening I thought about that dress and the next morning I decided to drive back and buy it. If I needed to go alone, then I could definitly look stunning. After buying the dress I drove to school. Upon entering the building I could already spot Tommy standing at my locker, waiting for me. "Morning Tommy!", I greeted him, while opening my locker. "Good morning Y/N. How are you today?", he asked and I smiled. "Oh I'm totally fine, what about you?", I asked, rummaging through my locker for the right books. I definitly needed to clean that mess up before graduating! "I'm good, but there is something bothering me. A question I can't get out of my head.", he said. "Then ask the question, maybe I can help you.", I answered, shoving the books into my bag and closing my locker.

"Well, I wanted to know, if you are going to prom?", he asked. "Oh, I don't think I will. You know, the finals are coming up and I need to study.", I told him and he nodded. "Right. But would you maybe....", he began but was interrupted by Clara walking towards me. Better she ran to me, nearly tackling me to the ground when she hugged me. "Woah Clara, calm down." , I said, laughing. "But I can't! I need to tell you something and it's really important! And we're late for class anyway! Now come on!", she said, grabbing my hand, starting to drag me down the hallway. "Woah! Guess I'll see you later Tommy!", I called towards him, while waving.

Finally at the right classroom, we sat down and I looked at her expectantly. "Now what is it you wanted to tell me?", I asked and she smiled the biggest smile I ever saw. "Guess who asked me to prom today?!", she asked excited. I shrugged my shoulders. "Don't know, who?", I asked back. "Eric! I mean can you believe it?", she asked and I smiled. "Thats great! I'm happy for you.", I said and she smiled. "Don't worry, we will find someone for you too!", she said with a wink, making me roll my eyes.
