Isolated (Tom Hiddleston x reader)

Cheering up

Y/N P.O.V

I woke up the next morning to the smell of bacon and eggs. I rubbed my eyes and sat up on the couch and got up. I am not at all a morning person. After a long day, I'll sleep until 2 pm at some points.

I made my way to the kitchen. I heard giggling coming from the kitchen and soft conversation. I peeked my head into the kitchen and saw Tom conversing with my mom.

Oh shit

Tom spotted me from the corner of his eye and smiled at me.

"Morning Y/N." Tom smiled and turned back to work on the bacon.

"Morning dear!" My mom smiled and bear-hugged me. "Tom is a great catch, isn't he?" My mom whispered in my ear. I blushed a bright shade of red and my mom giggled and let go of me.

"M-Morning, how did you guys sleep?" I could feel my inside shake cause my mom is known for not keeping secrets very well. I hope she didn't tell him. Please tell me she didn't.

"Oh, I slept like a baby till at 10 pm I heard a noise coming from the living room but I just went back to sleep." My mom giggled. Tom chuckled.

"I'm sorry for my late intrusion Miss L/N." Tom smiled an apologetic smile at her.

"Oh, nonsense you're always welcome!" My mom giggled and looked out of the back door window and gasped. " Oh, there is Janice I have to make plans for her daughter's baby shower for this weekend." My mom walked out the back door and talked with the neighbour.

"Your mom is very energetic." Tom chuckled and puts the eggs and bacon on the plate.

"I could use some of that." I laughed lightly and went to make myself some coffee/tea. Tom chuckled from where he stood and looked at me.

"I see you are still not a morning person." He chuckled and leaned against the counter.

"Hey, it's called I'm still rebooting. My brain has a lot of software updates." I smiled. Tom burst into laughter and it made me smile wider. Seeing how I was able to cheer him up after what happened last night made me happy.

"Then how many do you have cause last time I had to wake you up cause you overslept and almost missed your audition." Tom chuckled and smirked at me playfully.

"Why thank you alarm clock." I laughed and blushed at his smirk. No wonder he has so many fans. This man is charming as hell.

"Why you're a welcome sloth." Tom chuckled. The kettle started to whistle and I poured it into my cup. I stuck my tongue out at him playfully at his little name for me.

"You feeling better?" I smile at him. Tom smiled at me and nodded.

"Thanks to you a little bit. Honestly, I wasn't surprised but it still shocked me and it hurt. A lot." Tom frowned and looked down and then back at me. "Things weren't going well with Vanessa and me. She would drink with her friends all the time, she'll drink when she's home. She'll constantly ask for money and I would also refuse then we'll argue. That night when I came home and heard what they were doing...I just had to come to you."

My heart broke at that very moment. Seeing Tom going through a similar heartbreak as I have...he doesn't deserve it at all.

"Tom I am so sorry to hear what was happening. After what she did she isn't worthy of your time and patience. She broke the trust and so she doesn't deserve it. You're amazing Tom, you're kind-hearted, funny, talented, optimistic, intelligent, good-looking, caring. Don't let her change who you are and let her bring you down."

Tom smiled widely and hugged me tightly. I blushed and hugged him back.

"Thank you Y/N. I can always count on you." My heart skipped a beat and I felt my cheeks burn up.
