Thomas Sanders + Sides x Reader

Helpless (Thomas x Reader)

|| "Thomas X reader

Thomas has an upcoming musical and he doesn't remember all the lines reader Chan helps him in the end."

Ahh I did a cliche with this one ;) . ALSO I think this is the only request I've gotten of Thomas, it makes me sad. I had to do my research and look for a good song too. Geez guys I TRIED for once. Not really I just have Hamilton memorized (even if I went with the Mixtape for this one). ||

    Y/n sat, upside down, on the couch, watching as Thomas pace around practicing his lines. "Y/n can you please help me instead of staring at me?" Y/n gave him a thumbs up, "sure Tom. Just give me what you're struggling on." Thomas walked over and placed the paper on the table in front of them. "Thomas this is my favorite song from Hamilton." Thomas smiled, "awesome, so that means you'll actually be good with it!" Y/n chuckled, "I'll be the best at it either way. Well besides you that is."

    "Why is it you can't remember a little part though-?" He laughed and rubbed the back of his neck, "my timing is always off, and whenever I do it I stumble over my words a bit." I nod, "well lets start then!"

   "Baby, I'm helpless." I smile at him and wink.

"Look into your eyes, and the sky’s the limit I’m, helpless, baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em." He chuckles at how into it all I am.

"I ain't ever been the type to try and grab the spotlight
We were at the revel with some rebels on a hot night."
"Laughin’ at my sister as she dazzling the room
Then you walked in and my heart said," I snap and chuckle a bit.

"Tryin’ to catch your eye from the side of the ballroom
Everybody’s dancin’ and the bass top volume
Grind to the rhythm as we wine and dine
Saying to myself, 'Baby, this one’s mine'.” I point at him as I say the last line.

"Shorty made her way across the room to you
And I got nervous, thinking 'What’s she gonna do?'
She grabbed you by the arm, I’m thinkin’ 'I’m through'
Then you look back at me and suddenly I’m..."

"Helpless, yeah
Look into your eyes, and the sky’s the limit I’m
Helpless, baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em."

"Helpless, yeah
Look into your eyes, and the sky’s the limit I’m
Helpless, baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em."

"One week later, I’m writin’ a letter nightly
Now my life gets better, every letter that you write me
Laughin’ at this girl, cuz she wants to form a harem
...No, I ain't sharin'."
"Two weeks later, in the living room stressin’
My father’s stone-faced while you’re asking for his blessin’
I’m dying inside, as you wine and dine
And I’m tryin’ not to cry
‘Cause there’s nothing that your mind can’t do." I point at my head, and smirk as I continue.

"My father makes his way across the room to you. I panic for a second, thinking “we’re through”
But then he shakes your hand and says “be true”
And you turn back to me, smiling, and I’m..."

"Helpless, yeah
Look into your eyes, and the sky’s the limit I’m
Helpless, baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em
Helpless, yeah
Look into your eyes, and the sky’s the limit I’m
Helpless, (so helpless) baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em." I point at him again and he starts.

"Ashanti, I ain't got a dollar to my name
An acre of land, a troop to command, a dollop of fame
All I have’s my honor, a tolerance for pain
A couple of college credits and my top-notch brain
Insane, your family brings out a different side of me
Peggy confides in me, Angelica tried to take a bite of me.
No stress, my love for you is never in doubt. We’ll get a little place in Queens and we’ll figure it out." He smiled brightly at me now.

"I’ve been livin’ without my family since I was a child.
My father died, my mama cried, I grew up buck wild
But I’ll never forget my mother’s face, that was real." I nod as he goes on.

"And long as I’m alive, Ashanti, swear to God
You’ll never feel so…"

"Baby I'm-" I cut in and he chuckles.

"Helpless, yeah.
Look into your eyes, and the sky’s the limit I’m, helpless, baby. Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em."

"Helpless, yeah (I'm so helpless). Look into your eyes, and the sky’s the limit I’m
(Cause you know that I'm)." I stand up and walk to him now.

"Helpless, baby
Down for the count, and I’m drownin’ in ‘em"

"Baby I'm." I sit next to him and smile again.
"Yeah."
"Mm, so into you." I nudge him.
"So into you." He sings back, nudging me as well.

He laughs, "we make an amazing duet."

"Yeah we do!"

"Do you want to be the Eliza to my Alexander, minus the dying bit for now, cheating, and all that jazz? Heh..."

"Sure Tom, why not."

"Awesome!"

I chuckle and kiss his cheek, "alright I gotta get home. I'll see you tomorrow."

"I'll walk you out to your car."

"Coolio."
