TIKTOK IMAGINES

love and hate- Tom Pallant

So this is an imagine but not with someone from tiktok. I know this book is supposed to be tiktok people only but like I really needed to write this I guess for my own sake before I actually forget it. I might also turn it into a book

And if you don't know who Tom Pallant is, he's the photographer for Yungblud.

------------

Y/n-"There is no way I'm going to be a second photographer for Yungblud if it means I have to work with Tom"

Manager- 'This isn't for your benefit or Tom's, it's for Yungblud so you either do it or you're out of here with no reference"

Y/n-"You can't blackmail me forever"

Managers suck. Now I know why so many people hate having managers and do it all themselves. And honestly I wish I was one of those people.

My manager wanted me to go on a 4 month long tour with Yungblud, which wasn't the problem because me and him were pretty close, the problem was his other photographer Tom. Always acting like he was better than everyone else, and we also had a little bit of history.

--time skip--
We left for tour today which meant we travelled from Doncaster to Australia for the first leg of tour. The first show was in Sydney, then Melbourne and then brisbane before going to Perth and Adelaide.
The team were due to pick us up any minute which resulted in me sitting in front of the airport on my suitcase in a pikachu onesie.
Yungblud-"Yo, wassup!"
Y/n-"Dude I've not seen you in forever"
I gave Yungblud the biggest hug I could with still being tired, before giving the rest of the crew a hug.
Tom-"Oh yeah, hi to you too y/n"
I swear his sarcasm was actually going to drive me insane.
Y/n- "Dickhead" I mumbled so he would hear it before grabbing my suitcase and taking it on the bus. And since they were nice lads they let me have the back room since I was the only woman on the tour.

I shrunk into one of the couches towards the front of the bus whilst we all got situated with bunks and luggage spaces.
Tom-"So how you been?"
Y/n-"Please cut the crap Tom, I can't be dealing with it"
Tom-"I genuinely care you know that right and you keep pushing me away"

Y/n-"If you cared we'd still be together, not trying to avoid each others existence"

-skip a couple of hours to the first show-

Once I had finally showered and dried my hair I managed to get a decent outfit on ready for the show tonight. I grabbed my camera bag from the back room and looked through the pictures I had taken so far, there was a picture of Yungblud sitting in the sink, another one of Adam and Micheal almost kissing and then me with my middle fingers near my eyes so that you could only see my outfit. They were pretty decent to be fair.

Tour manager-"Right lads, are we ready, this is the first show of the tour let's make it the best start possible"

We all cheered before jumping off the bus and walking towards the back of the venue whilst the opening band was playing. The room was crowded no room to move which was always a good sign. Apart from when one if the team wanted us to get pictures from the crowd.
The one thing I said I'd never do was take pictures in the crowd but I also didn't want to disappoint them on the first night which meant I did it anyways. I managed to get a few good shots from the spot I was stood in but it was getting hard to breathe and my head started spinning. The noise around me began to get mumbled whilst I tried to focus on getting my breathing rate back to normal.

--little tiny pov change. Tom's pov--
Tom-"DOM, you need to stop the show!"
Yungblud-"Tom what are you doing"
Y/n-"They made y/n go in the crowd and I can't see her and I'm panicking. She might be having an anxiety attack"

The fear set on his face before stopping the music and looking in the crowd.
Yungblud-"If any of you can see a young woman with a camera can you please make a gap so that Tom can come and get her"

The crowd started to part and with each person y/n came more into view and I noticed she was more pale than before which wasn't a good sign. No, no this can't be happening. I rushed over to her before picking her up and taking her to the backroom of the venue.
Tom-"Y/n you need to look at me please"
Her eyes fluttered open before immediately closing again due to the harsh light
Tom-"Why did you go into the crowd if you knew you were going to have an anxiety attack?"
Y/n-'I thought I had it under control. And I didn't want to disappoint anyone"
Tom-"Y/n darling, I've known you for what six years now, you couldn't disappoint anyone with your photos. They're amazing but you don't need to push yourself to prove something"
Y/n-'I wasn't trying to prove something Tom. I'm just fed up of everyone expecting me to be how they want me to be"
Tom-"Stop with the attitude. Seriously you knew I was going to be on this tour as well so why did you even come if you knew this was going to happen?"
Y/n-"I didn't have a choice in whether I came or not"

Tom-"What do you mean? Of course you had a choice"
Y/n-"No I didn't, my manager threatened to dismiss me with no reference"

Tom-"So you're just going to let him blackmail you. He's doing that because he thinks you're weak because you're a girl"
Y/n-"I don't know what to do anymore Tom, seriously like I'm so close to not having a manager anymore, I'm struggling to pay rent because my manager is an asshole and I made Yungblud stop his show because I had an anxiety attack"
Tom-"Look at me. You are stronger than you think, when we get back to the bus, I want you to tell your manager that you are done with him. He is sucky ass. My manager is looking for a new female photographer to take on and she is so much nicer than that. And if your bills get too much just come and stay with me for a while"
Y/n-"You hate me, why would you offer me that"

Tom-"I don't hate you y/n, if anything I love you. I have done since we first met but the first time we tried we were constantly arguing but it didn't mean I loved you any less"

Y/n-"I love you too"

He smiled before one of the venue people came and told us we have to go back to doing photography. This show was better than expected, even after an anxiety attack
