If you are texting a USA number you pay for it.
Texts are free to receive on any network, anywhere in the world.

If the person you want to text in USA has a UK mobile number then the cost will be exactly the same as if they were standing next to you or would come out of your normal allowance. Your friend in USA would receive the text free of any charge.
