It all Started In Richmond Park {Tom Holland}

|3|

Ella had headed home after her karaoke performance as it was late.
What a day.

She had met boys who were practically her idols and the actor of her namesake in her favourite universe.

She now had each of their numbers and viewed them as good friends like how on earth did that happen? She lay in bed staring at the Marvel posters plastered above her head it was strange she know knew Tom so it was a little strange having pictures of him in her room but it was spiderman not Tom.

She lay awake knowing she wouldn't be able to sleep for ages she stood up and walked over to her window where an easel there was a painting on the stand already a field of grass with two people and a dog sprawled on the grass.

Her day had been the inspiration to add the three figures which really was what the painting had been missing.

she moved the dry canvas to the side and pulled up another. she just let the paint flow moving the brush across the canvas. she was barely paying attention to the painting appearing in front of her. she was brought out of her trance and looked herself over she had a paintbrush keeping her bun in and paint all over her hands and arms. 

She looked over to her buzzing phone which was what had broken her concentration. Paddy was calling her at three in the morning. She was up anyway so she answered, her slightly crazy self appearing on the screen.

"Hey Paddy what you need?" Ella asked slightly concerned she sat cross legged on her bed phone propped in front of her. He covered his mouth at the sight of her covered in paint and chuckled.

She rolled her eyes "paddy!" he shook his head before propping his own phone up and looking serious "its Tess" he stated simply "what happened is she ok?!" 

"Really none of us know she got out and we dont know what happened" "you want me to come help looking for her?" "i know we only just met but if that is ok?" Ella smiled "thats ok it's not like I am doing anything else apart from painting" 

He looked distracted "you are painting? what you painting?" Ella looked over to check and see what she had created 

"seems to be spiderman" she said hesitantly. He chuckled "what do you mean by seems to be" "well I kinda just started painting so i didn't really notice what it was, I guess it was just in my mind" he grinned before gasping "jeepers mate we have a princess to find! Call Tom if you find her" "ok will do paddy I am about a ten minute cycle away so about a twenty minute walk I suppose Good luck!"

Ella hung up before wiping her arms down. She changed into a pair of jeans and a large stark industries hoodie.

Ella's Pov

I finished dressing in warmer clothes aka my favorite hoodie which was black with stark industries branding. Now where could Tessa have gone. I walked down the stairs and grabbed a flashlight as it was dark. I walked out my door before getting knocked flat by a Grey blob.

"Tessa!" The dog had come to my house when she got lost. I smiled and sat up. Tessa was extremely cold and shivering it was also raining outside the poor darling must have caught a cold on the long walk here. Before calling the others I picked her up and wrapped her in a spiderman blanket and putting her in my living room next to the fireplace. Unlike a lot of houses i had a real fire not an electronic one. I easily lit it and the room began to heat up immediately. Tessa lay under her spiderman blanket on the armchair nearest the fire.

I got out my phone and scrolled through the contacts. I was slightly nervous even though we were now good friends it was still weird to be calling one of my favorite actors.

I took a deep breath and called him it rung for a few seconds and he picked up.

"Ella?" he asked sounding confused "well Paddy said to call you if I had news on Tessa" he hmmd "well a certain princess showed up at my door almost frozen about five minutes ago" 

All three boys cheered through the phone, before sighing "damn mates we got lost!" Exclaimed Tom the others groaned in response. "what can you see?" "well there is a large oak tree and some large boulders." "ah I know where you are stay there I'll come get you" "Thanks Ella see you in a minute"

I hung up and grabbed a jacket but not before putting the kettle on. I gave Tess a stroke before running out the door and down to the gates of Richmond Park. Even with my jacket I was drenched in seconds. I tied the jacket and hoodie round my waist leaving me in my soaking T shirt. I smiled as I saw the three boys huddled by the tree talking. 

I waved my flashlight at them and they looked up. Tom grinned and the others just looked cold. "hey guys looking a little damp" I said coming over. "not too dry yourself Ella " Tom responded "lets just get you Divs out the rain. We started to walk back towards my house "thanks for this Ella" Tom said as he walked "Sorry Paddy must have woken you up." "oh no I was painting so he didn't wake me and there is nothing like a three in the morning adventure!" He chuckled.

Goodness he was even cuter in real life than the videos and movies. We walked in silence all the way back to my house it wasn't a nasty uncomfortable silence it was a silence that showed everyone was too tired to make conversation.

I unlocked the door and held it open for the three as they walked in. "you three might want to take of your jackets and wait till the rain has calmed a bit" I pointed at the window where the rain had only gotten worse. They nodded and hung the jackets over the radiator. 

"ya know you guys are the first three people to come in here" I smiled and headed into the kitchen living room area. They followed me and I started making tea, I gestured to the sofa "sit down or something" they sat down and Tom grinned when Tessa or the Spiderman blanket jumped on him. I came over and set down a tray of mugs. 

Each had an Marvel character on it, it was unintentional but I had picked out spiderman, Mj, Ned and the vulture. I laughed when I saw my mug choices, they boys looked at me confused as to why I was laughing then I pointed at Tom then at the mugs on the table in front of us.

We all picked one up obviously Tom had spiderman. So I picked up the Mj mug while Paddy took Ned and Sam had the vulture. I turned on the Tv and flicked through it. I spotted one of my films 'sunlight on the beach' I was the daughter of the main characters.

Tom pointed to it "never seen that before but it looks good!" I smirked and played the trailer.

We watched as some light playful music came on and waves splashed over some footprints. It didn't show the characters just the areas then it showed my characters parents as they ran across the sand by the edge of the jungle. It panned to an eight year old me sitting in the sand back turned, the rest as the trailer reached its end I picture of me flashed up and my name. The boys jolted upright and turned to me, mouths gaping. "YOU DIDNT SAY YOU ACTED!!!!" Paddy screeched. "you didn't ask." 

I changed the film to spiderman homecoming and flicked through to a specific time stamp pausing it to let the boys look at the scene Peter was talking to Mr Delmar and there I was sitting in the background sipping a drink.

They were all frozen in surprise so I flicked to another movie, Iron man 1. Tom looked at me as I flicked to the film almost disbelieving that i was in the first marvel film. I flicked to a scene where he was standing in a crowded space and there I was a twelve year old being swept along by the crowd.

Their Jaws dropped "two marvel films?" I nodded "surprised you didn't see me before" I smirked. The boys sat shocked for a moment, I flicked back to 'sunlight on the beach' and hit play. We were all finished our tea and just watching. Tessa was curled up between Tom and I while paddy and Sam sat on the next couch along. We drifted off when the film ended no one having the energy to move.
