no matter what decision your heart makes, I will be waiting for you...

chapter 11

Your first day at the office felt like it just wouldn't end, it's now 6:58 and you can leave at 7. You pack up your bag and get up. Walking out of your office, you lock the door behind you. You look one last time on your watch, making sure it's 7pm before you make your way to Tom's office.
This time you knock on the door, when there is no answer you knock again.
"Thomas?" You say his whole name, you are allowed to do that now since your working time.
Less than five seconds later, his door opens. You flinch before looking up, he is standing right in front of you, his dark brown eyes looking down into yours. A strand of his messy curls hangs in his face. Raising his hand, his fingertips drive through his hair one last time, removing the strand from his face.
"Hard day?" You ask, he looks pretty down in the dumps, like he's been going through his hair in despair all day.
"Yes and now come" He walks past you to the elevator. You walk behind him with small steps until you have caught up with him and you are both standing in the elevator.
Once you are downstairs, harrison is already standing in the entrance hall talking to some of the staff, when he notices you he comes straight to you.
"How was your first day little sis?"
He asks with an excited smile, his eyes jumping back and forth between yours and Tom's but Tom just looks out the door.
"It was okay" you said. You make your way out to the car but this time you are quicker and sit in the passenger seat.
Tom sits down in the back without saying a word, seems like he really had a hard day. You turn back to him, you were expecting him to grumble at you or make some stupid comments, but he doesn't, he has his head tilted back and his eyes closed. Harrison, on the other hand, gets into the driver's seat full of motivation and starts the car.
"Next stop, home" You giggle at his stupidity and drive home. Harrison hummed the way home to songs from one direction, you caught yourself looking back at tom a few times, who still looked exhausted and didn't say a word. At home, tom went straight to his room and harrison and you went into the living room. You sit down on the couch and slowly kick your shoes off your feet. You let your head fall back and your arms just fall to the side. Your eyes fall shut. Nothing and no one could make you talk or move now...
"Should we order pizza and eat it on the couch while watching some movies?" And with that, your eyes are open again and a big smile is on your lips. You look at harrison and nod like crazy.
"Then tell tom I'll order us some pizza."
You jump up and make your way to Tom's room.
You stop in front of his door and as you have learned you should always knock, so you do, you knock 3 times gently on his door.
All you get to hear is a low and mumbled "come in". You open the door and see Tom lying on his back on the bed, his shirt pulled up a little so that you can see his stomach clearly, the belt of his trousers is undone but still around his trousers, and his arms are spread out on the bed, just like his legs. He looks somehow like a starfish... a black starfish with his black clothes he is wearing.
"I'm just here to let you know that harrison is ordering pizza" Silence. Seems like he could use some company.... You closed the door behind you and took slow, quiet steps towards him. You let your back fall onto his 2 meter wide bed and look up at the ceiling.
"What are you doing?" He mumbles,  his eyes still closed and his voice low and raspy.
"The same thing as you, I rest"
You turn your head in Tom's direction and look into his tired face. He only lets out a soft 'mhm' but he doesn't seem to mind that you are lying next to him. You study every little detail of his face and how his nose sometimes twitches when he breathes in, after 2 minutes you think he has already forgotten your presence. He slowly opens his eyes and looks to the side to see you, when he sees you studying him, a small smirk grows on his lips.
"Like what you see?" He says in his deep voice and chuckles
"Be quiet or I'll throw a pillow at you" you answer playfully
"I'm just joking" He puts his head on his left hand under the pillow so that he can look at you completely. He moves his right hand to your face and brushes a strand of hair from your face behind your ear.
"What do you think you are doing" You say as a blush forms on your cheeks
"I only help you to see the beautiful view in front of you better" he smirks at his sentence but you roll your eyes.
You look back at the ceiling as he continues to look at you, you smile a little as you realise he is still looking at you.
"You are so self-indulgent, do you know that?" You put your hands on your belly.
"Maybe I am... maybe not..." he says and smirks. Out of nowhere he leans over you, his towering figure starring right into your eyes. Both his elbows on either sides of your head and his strand of hair falls onto your forehead. Your eyes widen as Tom is suddenly inches above your head and you turn pale. He looks deep into your eyes, you thought he wanted to kiss you but instead he starts laughing. He drops his head into the croach of your neck and you laugh along with him, not wanting to come across as weird.
"Whats so funny?" You ask through laughter
"You should have seen your face, you really thought I was going to kiss you, didn't you?" He continues to laugh
"What nooo!! Uhh no thanks, I refrain to kiss you !" You push him off you so that he is lying on his back again but he is still laughing, did it hurt you that he said that? Maybe.  Did you wish he would kiss you? No... maybe... just a little bit.
"Keep telling yourself princess but I'm going for pizza now" He stands up, fastens his belt again and walks out of the room. You sigh before you get up too to eat pizza.
You go into the living room where harrison is taking the pizza at the door and pays for it. He puts the pizzas on the table and takes his away from them.
Tom and you also take your pizzas and sit with harrison on the sofa.
"So what do we want to watch?" Harrison asks.
" how I met your mother !!!" You scream
"No, we always have to watch it because of you Y/N !!" Tom groans
"He's right Y/N, let's see what's on TV"
Harrison says and reaches for the remote control. After 10 minutes you all decided to watch 'love island'.
Tom was very concentrated watching the show while you were concentrating on the last slice of your pizza, meanwhile harrison was sitting on the floor with his back against the sofa taking a sip of his beer. After the programme ends, it is already 11 pm. Harrison turns off the TV and gets up.
"I'm going to bed, good night" Harrison makes his way to his room. You look at tom who also gets up. He throws his empty pizza box onto your lap and says
"It's your turn to clear the table. I'm going to bed too !"
"Really?"
"Yes, I'm sorry darling... " He goes to his room and you still dispose of the pizza boxes.
You're still cleaning up the kitchen where your cornflake bowl is still in the sink. Then you turn out the lights and go to bed too. You set an alarm for the next morning, put on something comfortable and brush your teeth. The last thing you do is put out your clothes for the next day, but then you finally lay down in bed and relax. You snuggle up in your blankets and fall asleep after 20 minutes.
