Chapter 15
Sitting at the kitchen table directly across from Luda Mae while waiting for Tommy felt like you were in the principals office waiting to be suspended, you both turned your head to look at Tommy who had put on his mask, one of your dads old black t-shirt and his regular pants- you tried not to stare at the tight shirt on his broad frame, you ducked your head down to avoid his gaze, you swear you hear Luda Mae chuckle under her breath.
Tommy approached the table and seemed torn on who to sit next to, he ultimately chose the chair beside you, you smiled at him slightly- you had to remember no matter how mortified you were that Luda Mae saw what she did it's probably 1738% worse for Thomas right now, you took a deep breath and tried to be the strong one for once as you straightened you back and looked at Luda Mae head on
"Lovely weather we're havin dear"
She said calmly, taking you deeply off guard
"Uh yeah it seems warm- listen Luda Mae I'm sor-
"Oh hush"
She took a painfully long drink of her tea
"I'm the only one who should be apologizing, I let myself in and broke your house warming gift"
She shook her head sadly
"Wait wait you're not mad? You're not gonna fire me?"
She laughed
"No love, I've been trying to push you two together since the day you started, although I could've gone without the demonstration just now"
You heard Tommy groan and put his face in his hands, you couldn't help but smile at him
"So how long has this been happening"
You scratch at your head
"It's a very recent development, actually last night we uh found out we had similar feelings towards each other and well you can probably guess what happened next "

You didn't know your face could get more hot but every second proved you wrong
"Are you serious about my boy?"
She looked at you intensely and you saw Tommy raise his head from his hands, you simply reached over to grab his hand
"yes"
She chuckled silently
"Well I'm not one to tell you what to do"
You heard Tommy scoff beside you
"I would suggest you don't tell everyone about this just yet, people in this town gossip about you two enough and we don't need to add fuel to that fire just yet"
She rose from the table and you mirrored her
"I don't know exactly who we'd tell but I think you're right, We hardly know what we're doing right now"
Luda slowly walked to door with you trailing behind her
"Well I best get going and don't worry I won't be telling the boys at home about this...incident"
You lean in for a hug
"And I thank you for that, Jesus I can't imagine what Hoyt and Monty would say"
She let go and patted your shoulder
"You should hear the questions they ask about you already"
You smiled at the thought and closed the door behind her.
you walked over to table and stood next to Thomas setting your hand on his shoulder, it never fails to surprise you how small you seemed next to him
"Well, that went better than excepted right? She's not gonna like kill me and use me as meat in the butcher shop?"
Thomas just rolled his eyes while grabbing you by the waist to pull you into his lap facing him
"So it kinda sucks not being out in the open with this"
Tommy shrugged as his hand gently rubbed your back
"But maybe it'll be nice for bit, just us? Sneaking around like high schoolers"

You see him smirk underneath this mask as he stands up putting his hands over your ass as you hook your legs around his waist and laugh loudly, he doesn't take you directly to your room, you look around a bit confused until you see you're at the front door and he's making sure it's very locked this time, once he's happy with the lock he turns to the direction of your room, you start kissing his neck
"I believe we have some unfinished business Mister Thomas"
You get a playful growl in return as he slams your door close and steps over the broken plant you can't help but smile about everything, this is the happiest you've ever been you think while Thomas tosses you on the bed.
