summary - You and Tom get in a huge fight, and Tom turns petty and embarrasses you in front of the boys. When you lose it, Tom realizes just how bad he fucked up.

-----

You didn't even know how your fight started, who started it, or why, but it had been 30 minutes, and you and Tom were still screaming at each other.

"All I wanted was to come home from work and hang out with my boyfriend!" you said. "But you don't care! Because all you care about is getting drunk with Harrison and coming home expecting an easy fuck! I feel like that's all I am to you right now, Tom! A way to get your dick wet!"

"I'm not going to apologize for spending time with my friends and wanting to have sex with my girlfriend!" he said.

"Why don't you want to spend actual time with me?"

"I never said I didn't!"

"It's not what you're saying! It's how you're acting! How can you be so thick right now? Are you even trying to understand where I'm coming from? Or what I'm saying?"

"I can't understand when you're being a complete idiot!"

"God, you're such an asshole!" you said. "I don't even understand why we're together anymore!"

"What, so you want to break up?"

"No!"

"Then what do you want?"

"I want you to put some effort into this relationship again!"

"You think I'm not putting forth effort?"

"That's what I said."

"Well at least I'm not putting all my effort into getting attention from every other man on the planet!"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

The doorbell rang before Tom could answer, and you were heated. Harrison, Harry, and Sam were coming over for dinner, and you wished you had called them and cancelled. You were in no position to be a hostess of any kind. Still, Tom shot you a look that told you to behave, so you clenched your jaw and gave him your most exaggerated smile.

What right did he have to give you a "behave" look?

You and Tom greeted the boys with excited smiles. It had been a while since you had seen them -Tom went out with them often- so you had been eager to have them over for dinner. Now, Tom ruined your day, and you just wanted to go to bed. Seeing Harrison, Harry, and Sam did bring a genuine smile to your face though, so maybe the evening would improve.

Dinner went by fairly smoothly. Tom didn't speak directly to you, but that was fine with you because it kept the peace. Now, you were all sitting around in the living room, nursing your respective drinks and chatting. "How's work been going, (Y/N)?" Sam asked as he sipped his beer.

"Pretty good," you said. "Borderline uneventful all the time."

"What is it you do again?" he asked.

"Oh," Tom said with a laugh before you could answer, "how could you forget about her super important job?"

"I mean it's not-"

"Being the personal assistant to some bald-headed middle-aged office man can't be done by just anyone," he said. "Good thing (Y/N) is good at hanging her head and blindly following orders. She's like a little puppy."
