Hidden Secrets (Thomas x reader)

(hey guys! So I'm sorry to the people who don't like x readers but I promise the next one is a ship so just stick with me pls!)

Jefferson this isn’t funny, give me my phone back!” I say as I  jump and reach for my phone. I can’t let him know what’s on there, especially not when I ‘ve been talking serious shit about him recently. I don’t care if we’re best friends when he’s being stupid I’ll call him out for it.

“Oh, so we’re goin’ back to last names now darlin’? Fine (L/N), how ‘bout you tell me what you’re hiddin’ on here and then I’ll give it back.”  He says with a smirk as he holds it ever higher above his head. Damn him and his tallness. He can be such a dick sometimes, but I mean his southern charm and looks always pulls me back to him. But no matter what I can’t let him see what I had on there.

“What? No! That defeats the whole purpose of getting my phone back!” I say as I jump for my phone again, yet again to no avail. He chuckles at my feeble attempts to get my phone back as I see James walking towards us. I get an idea and run off towards James, as I do I look back at Thomas to see his smirk drop and drop his arms back to a normal, more reachable area. I smile and look back towards James as I approach him I slow down to a walk.

“Hi (Y/N) what’s going on? What were you and Thomas doing?” James ask, his voice still  a little nasly from his last cold.  

“Nothing much, except Jefferson’s being a dick and not giving me my phone back, he’s using my shortness to his advantage! And I need your help to get my phone back, could you please help me?” I ask with a pleading look on my face. He sighs then pinches the bridge of his nose.

“The moment I get better we decide to hang out and Thomas is causing problems. I should have known… anyways what are you hiding that you don’t trust him with your phone, even though its password protected?” He asks well he looks at me and lets go of the bridge of his nose, the look of curiosity in his eyes.

“N-nothing…. it’s nothing important, I just want it back. That’s all.”  I say quickly, not even looking him in the eyes. God damn it why am I such a shitty liar?  He chuckles a bit then looks at me with a small mischievous smirk.

“Well if it's nothing, I'll just let Thomas hold onto it, maybe his obliviousness to you're clear crush on him will be resolved.” James said as he proceeded to walk passed me to Thomas. I feel my face heat up as I finally full process what he said. I can't let him know that! If he knows, I wouldn't hear the end of it. I mean what if he doesn't like me back like that?  Would things between us change? Would things that we normally do become awkward? I go to get James but he's already talking to Thomas. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit! No! James so do this to me please, please don't tell him. I try to regain my composure as I walk back over to them. Thomas smirks at me, then his smirk drops as he looking into my eyes and sees the panic in them.

“Darlin’ is everythin’ alright? You seem tense, and kinda scared… what's up?” As he speaks James looks at us and smiles then very quickly swipes my phone from Thomas’s pocket. That sneaky son of a bitch, he made me worry for no reason.

“I mean yeah…. It just I want my phone back and I need it so could you please give it to me?” I ask as I cover up the true reason I'm mentally freaking out and in the mood to throw shit. I mean I'm not totally lying about why I'm worried, because that's definitely a part of it.

“Oh, that's all? Sorry darlin’ but it's mine till I figure out what your hiding.” He teased as he chuckled and went to grab the phone. I quickly glance around to try to find James. He disappeared with my phone. And at that moment everything internally snapped, I stood there having a mental break down over James having my phone. I start to look around more, getting worried that he straight up stole it. Thomas started to look around too, unsure of what happened, considering he had it in his pocket no less than a minute ago. I feel a hand on my shoulder as I turn to face James. He was holding the phone out of view from Thomas. I sighed and grabbed my phone then punched him in the arm.

“ James! You scared the shit out of me! But thank you for getting it back.” I say as I hug hug quickly. He chuckled and smiles at me in a way that just says no problem. I quickly get on my phone and see that my messages are open. They weren't open before it was taken, and I know Thomas doesn't know my password. I go to say something to James but he is talking to Thomas about something. I see Thomas pull out his phone and check it. I quickly check the last message sent, it was to Thomas.

I wasn't the one who sent it though…. I just see what it says and I start to mentally freak out. 'Thomas, I have to tell you something very important that you haven’t caught on to…. (Y/N) has a huge crush on you and it hurt me to watch your stupidity. -James’ I look over to see James smirking at me and Thomas looks up from his phone at me. He looks confused but happy at the same time. I feel my face flush and my heart beating out of my chest. He turns and says something to James quitely. James face palms and says loud enough for me to hear.

“Why would I lie about that? Just go talk to her about it…. I mean you've been crushing on her since you've known her and now you think I'd lie about this? God Thomas I thought you were smart.”  Then without another word he turned and walked away from Thomas. I slowly made my way over to him and saw Thomas’s grin grow wider. He then started to walk towards me. We end up meeting in the middle and awkwardly smiling at each other. More like I was awkwardly smiling up at him, and he was smirking down at me.

“Darlin’ I shoulda known you loved me” He says in a joking yet loving tone. I feel my face flush a small bit as I giggle and roll my eyes.

“Maybe you should stop thinking about yourself all the time and you probably would have noticed sooner.” I say teasingly as he blushes slightly. He rolls his eyes and chuckles a bit.

“Oh shush. You love me.”  he quipped in his thicc (Heh) southern accent.

“Of course you adorable narcissist.”  I shoot back without a second thought.

“An insult and a compliment, it’s a special moment then, huh?” He questioned playfully.

“Yep, my oblivious crush finally got it after someone had to straight up tell him . and he likes me back so yep it’s a special moment.” I answer with a small chuckle, he chuckles a bit as well.

“Wanna celebrate with an Aunt Annie’s soft pretzel and a slushie?” he says with a soft smile and turns and offers me his arm.

“Oh hell yes!” I take his arm without a thought then walked off with him to the like pretzel stand.
