~Y/N's POV~
I woke up to the beeping of my alarm clock sounding loudly on my bedside table. I groan as I slap the top of it, without opening my eyes to turn it off.
I force myself to get out of bed, knowing I had work today. I work as a photographer for movies and my latest project was working for marvel. Quite coincidentally, my next door neighbour, Tom, was apart of this project, since he was playing Spider-Man in the upcoming movie, Spider-Man: Far From Home. I also get to work with the Queens themselves, Zendaya and Laura Harrier. I get along quite well with them and we've become good friends. They always tease Tom, trying to embarrass him in front of me saying that 'he likes me'. He always goes a deep shade of red every time they bring that up, but I know they are only kidding. A guy like that would never like a girl like me, right? It just doesn't happen. Anyways, I only see Tom as a friend. He's my next door neighbour, that would be so weird and cliche if we're anything more.
I quickly get ready to meet the cast onset to take the movie photos, grabbing my camera and my lenses as I run out the door.*on set*
"Y/N!" I hear a familiar voice call my name.
"Zendaya! Oh my gosh, I missed you!"
"I missed you too. It's been crazy these past three weeks filming. I'm exhausted, but the movie is seeming to look amazing so far. I can't wait"
"Me either! So what's new? Any hot tea about to spill?"
Zendaya goes a light shade of pink and I immediately know that there is a love interest at hand.
"Who is he? Are you dating?? What's his name" I load her on with a head full of questions.
"Woah slow down", Zendaya laughs, "But yes. There is somebody and you'll never guess who."
"Do I know him?"
"Maybeeee", Zendaya stretches out the word.
"Hey guys!" Laura says running up to hug us.
"Laura! I missed you so much! How are you?" I ask hugging her back.
"I'm good thanks. Tired, exhausted, but still alive", she lets out a laugh.
"Where have you been?" Zendaya asks Laura, clearly trying to change the subject.
"Hey! Nice try Daya, but you still haven't told me about your lover-boy", I raise my eyebrows and fold my arms waiting for a reply.
Zendaya, again, goes a light pink shade and looks down at her feet.
"Z, you haven't told her yet?" Laura asks in surprise.
"What! You told Laura and you're not telling me?? Daya!"
"I'm sorry! It's just I'm scared to tell you."
"You don't trust me?"
"No! Y/N, I trust you so so much. It's just, I think you're gonna hate me if I tell you."
"Why would I ever hate you? Come on, who is it?"
"Just tell her, she probably doesn't even like him" Laura assures Zendaya.
"Okay. Y/N, I like Tom and Tom likes me."
"What! Since when??" You ask in shock.
"Like a few weeks ago. Wait, so you aren't mad?"
"Pfffttt why would I be mad?", you practically laugh out.
"Because Zendaya and I both thought you had a thing for Tom", Laura raised her brows at you in a questioning look.
"No way. You're all clear. No feelings whatsoever", you assure a worried Zendaya.
"Phew. Okay, I'm relieved." Zendaya lets out a sigh.
"Everyone to set now please!", all three of you hear over the mega phone and begin walking together to meet the others.~Tom's Pov~
It had been a few weeks since Zendaya had confessed her feelings for you. She was so nervous telling you and she didn't know what to expect. You felt bad.
The guilt was eating you alive.
You told Zendaya that you felt the same for her. You didn't really, you liked YN. But you didn't want to hurt Zendaya's feelings. She would have been crushed if you told her you weren't feeling it. You knew it was wrong to lead her on like this, but you didn't want to let her down. If she thought that you felt the same, then there would be no drama. If you told her you really liked Y/N, she would most likely be embarrassed, mad at Y/N, wouldn't speak to you for a long time and things just wouldn't be the same.
You knew you had gotten yourself into a mess. But now that you were in it, you didn't know how to get yourself out of it.
Oops, the only word used to describe your very messy and complicated situation right now.
