To say that Tom had had a bad day would be an understatement. From sleeping in late, causing him to be late on set, all the way to the director asking him to stay longer to discuss about how his acting was doing.
Tom was frustrated to begin with. This part was one that he had really wanted and worked so hard for. And yet he still kept making mistakes. A lot of stupid ones that could've been avoided easily.
He just wasn't able to portray the character as well as he had hoped.
After this long and upsetting day, Tom came back to his hotel room. Harrison and Jacob, who was free to visit Tom for a couple of weeks, were silent as they observed their friend.
He was sat on the couch wallowing away in self depreciation.
(Y/N) busts into the room filled to the brim with happiness. Her grin spread proudly across her face. Everything from the way she walked to the way she talked screamed positivity. As per usual.
She instantly noticed Tom's upset demeanor. She enjoyed cheering up people greatly, so this was something she could handle. Or so she thought.
"Tommy!" She said excitedly, jumping onto the couch next to him. His eyes glanced at her, changing nothing in his current attitude.
Despite the lack of change, both Harrison and Jacob were sure that if anyone could cheer Tom up it would be (Y/N). They were silently hopeful.
"Tommy, why are you so serious?" She fake pouted right in front of him. She went back to smiling brightly at him.
It was a smile that he adored but he just wasn't having it today.
"I'm sure it nothing that a hug can't fix."
She wrapped her arms around his torso, bringing his arm around her. Her head on his chest against the soft fabric of his T-shirt. A giggle or two escapes her lips.
It was then that Tom snapped.
"Enough!" He yelled, moving his arm away from her and pushing her off of him.
The push was harder than he had expected. Almost sending her tumbling to the floor. If she hadn't caught herself, that is.
