*At Robert's party*

Of course when you arrived at Robert's house, the paparazzi were outside. You let go of Tom's hand out of habit as you didn't want the press to find out you were dating yet. But then you remembered that you two were making it official. Before walking into Robert's house, Tom kissed you so you could get some attention from the press. After all, it was about time everyone knew that you were together. All the cameras flashing at you and Tom and you had some reporters asking you questions, you both just looked at each other and laughed as you walked into Robert's house.

"Glad to see you two have finally told the public." Robert said to you as you walked in through the door.

Robert's house was big, not as big as the house he has out in America but for a house in London, it was pretty big. You looked around the house and saw that Robert had invited the majority of the cast and crew which was great since you all loved a big party. Once you greeted everyone and had everyone stop harassing you about your relationship with Tom, you went to the bar with Scarlett to grab a drink.

"4 Shots of vodka please, surprise me with the flavour." you told the bartender.

He poured the 4 shots and handed them to you and Scarlett. Within seconds they were both gone, you ordered another round of drinks this time for both of you and the boys.

You ordered a pint of beer for Chris, a whiskey for Tom, a glass of wine for Scarlett and an apple martini for yourself. You walked back over to the group and handed them the drinks.

About two hours into the party and you were on your 5th round of drinks. You and Scarlett made your way to the dance floor and began to dance with Margaret and Cindy. You managed to pull Tom onto the dance floor to dance with you.

You started laughing "Wow Tom, I didn't know you could dance." You said slightly shocked.

"Yeah, I had to learn it for a film I did a while ago and I just remembered all the moves." He said back to you.

That's when he grabbed you by the waist and spun you around. You felt like a princess at this point, he spun you back into him and kissed you on the way in. Since most people at the party had brought their partners with them, Robert decided to play some slow music.

You weren't much of a fan of slow dancing, you felt like you needed to be with the right person to do it with so you really felt a connection between your partner and the song.

"Right, I'm going for another drink, anyone else?" You began to walk away as you felt a pull on your hand stopping you from going. Tom pulled you back in and began to slow dance with you.

He smiled at you, you didn't really have any general expression on your face because you didn't know what to do.

"Sorry I'm not really a fan of slow dancing, I just think you have to find the right person to do it with otherwise it doesn't feel right." Tom nodded at you.

He wrapped his arms around your waist and you wrapped them around his shoulders resting your head on him. You danced like this for a while not saying a word. In that moment you decided that this felt right, Tom was the one you could finally slow dance with and actually enjoy it.

He finally spoke. "Does it feel right with me?"

You looked at him and smiled. "Thomas Hiddleston. I now declare you the only man I can slow dance with." You laughed while lifting your head up so you could still talk to him.

Out of happiness, Tom spun you around once more and you both laughed. You really liked dancing with Tom. Come to think of it, you loved being with Tom. Everything you have done with each other just felt so right. 'Maybe he is the one?' you thought to yourself.

The party continued on for hours, meaning more drinks and more dancing. In total you probably bought around 12 rounds of drinks, not including all the shots you drank as well. It was around 3am when you, Scarlett, Tom and Chris stubbled back into your apartment.

Chris and Scarlett headed off to the spare bedroom whereas You and Tom went to go sit outside on the balcony to admire the London skyline. You turned on the fire pit and Tom fetched a blanket from your room. You both took a seat on the outside couch instead of the chairs, Tom sat normally and you laid down resting your head on Tom's lap letting your legs hang of the edge of the couch.

You were looking up at the stars in the sky and you could feel Tom's eyes admiring you as you did so.

"You know y/n..." He took a pause

You looked up at him and smiled.

"I'm glad we both didn't pull away from that kiss on the first day."

Your eyes widened as you looked at him. "Awwww Tom." a tear rolled down your cheek, but this was because you were still slightly drunk and got a tad bit emotional sometimes.

"I'm glad we decided to do something about us." He told you.

"Yeah, me too." You lifted your head up to give him a kiss and he met you halfway.

The rest of the night was spent in silence, listening to the sound of cars driving by and looking up at the stars. It didn't take you that long to fall asleep. Thankfully, Tom wasn't asleep yet.

He decided to get you both out of the cold, so he carried you to bed without trying to wake you up. He placed you down and covered you in blankets to keep you warm, he gave you a kiss on the forehead and climbed into bed as well.

*Tom's POV*

'Y/n looks so peaceful'  Tom thought to himself. He decided to bring you out of the cold and put you in bed. Placing you down gently and putting some more blankets on you, he gave you a gentle kiss on the forehead and got into bed also.

Tom held y/n as she slept as he knew you felt safe in the comfort of his arms and y/n also looked happier whenever you woke up in his arms.

"I love you y/n." He whispered.

*Back to reality*

Since you were fast asleep, you didn't hear Tom tell you he loved you. It didn't matter because you already felt so loved by him and you didn't need him to tell you to justify that feeling. You felt Tom's arms wrap around you as it woke you up slightly but fell back asleep within seconds. You had already somehow kicked all the blankets off yourself so Tom pulled the cover over you both and he went to bed also.
