Tom's Girl

•24•

The week had gone by so slow. While filming was fun and all, it was pretty exhausting. Getting up and being on set every morning at 5am, and leaving no earlier than 7pm. Every night resulted in us all having a movie night and Tom cuddling up to me. I found it kind of weird how Tom would cuddle with me every night, specially since when on set or in public he would treat me like his little sister. Although, me and Noah would occasionally fall asleep together. Maybe all Tom saw me as was his set sister, but it didn't matter to me. Either way, I loved the way he treated me, always so nice and caring, putting my needs in front of his. Now it was Friday evening, we were finally coming home from our last day filming for the week. We would film Monday through Friday every day for almost all day, so tomorrow was our first day off. Today they let us off a little early, so it was only 6pm by the time we got home.

"And they're finally homeee." Harry says as we walk through the door. Tom walks over to the kitchen, Harrison handing him a cup of tea as he walks out, not saying a word. He heads straight up the stairs and I turn to everyone, raising an eye brow.

"After a week of filming he usually walks straight through the door and to a hot bath." Sam explains, holding back a little bit of a laugh.

"You should go join him." Harrison says.

"e- excuse me??" I quickly question.

"You guys obviously have a thing for each other." Harry chuckles as he sips his cup of tea.

"What no we don't. What would make you think that??" I ask.

"I don't know... Maybe the fact that you guys cuddle on that couch every single night, and the way he looks at you, clearly there's something there." Harrison says.

"Ok, fair. But it's not like that." I say.

"He calls you Darling and Luv all the time, it's his little nicknames for you." Hannah says.

"He calls everyone those, he's English." I argue back.

"He's never called me either one of them." Hannah says.

"I don't see it." Sam claims.

"See what?" Harrison asks.

"The way he looks at her. He doesn't look at her like he's in love with her." Sam explains.

"Than how does he look at her?" Harrison questions.

"He uh, he looks down on her." Sam says. "Almost like an older brother." He says as he takes a sip of his tea.

"You think her being his set sister is growing on him?" Harrison asks.

"That, or Sam is just trying to convince Rylee that Tom is nothing to her so that he has her all to himself." Hannah says.

"Hannah!" I shout. She shrugs her shoulders and me and Sam exchange an awkward glance.

"Well how bout we get our movie started." Harrison says. "Rylee, we also made you a cup of tea." He says, handing it to me. We all head to the Livingroom, getting comfortable as Harrison starts a movie. I lay down in the corner of the couch where me and Tom always lay, wrapping a blanket around myself. I lay there through about half an hour of the movie, starting to feel tired but I couldn't sleep.

"Can't sleep without your body pillow?" Harrison chuckles.

"Very funny." I mutter.

"No seriously, every time we have movie night you are out within minutes."

"It's still early." I say.

"Alright alright." Harrison laughs. I couple minutes go by in complete silence as everyone watches the movie.

"On a completely unrelated note, how long does his bath's usually last?" I ask in a soft voice. Everyone lets out a laugh before Harrison answers me.

"He should be done already. But after his bath he usually checks his email and goes through any computer work he has to get done so that he's almost completely free on the weekends." Harrison explains. I let out a soft sigh and lay my head back down.

"But... He usually does his emails in bed, so that's probably where he is now." Harrison adds, clearly seeing my disappointment. I lay there for the next few minutes, wanting so bad to just have Tom come down here, but he didn't. I was starting to get tired but I just couldn't sleep.

"Rylee." I hear Harrison say.

"hm?" I ask, not looking at him.

"Go up there, nobody minds." He says. I sit still for a couple of seconds. I did really want to, but then the jokes would never stop. Honestly I didn't care, I was exhausted and I clearly couldn't sleep down here. I get up, handing the blanket I had to Hannah.

"m-maybe you shouldn't sleep in there tonight." Hannah says.

"Why not? She clearly can't sleep down here without him." Harrison says.

"w- well, Noah wouldn't really like that." Hannah stammers.

"Who's Noah??" Harrison questions.

"Her older brother." Hannah answers.

"Well it's not like he will ever know, and besides, he isn't really in charge of her right now." Harrison says.

"You should just stay down here Rylee, or go to your bedroom." Hannah says. I rub my eyes, only slightly understanding what they're saying because I was so tired.

"Just go Rylee." Harrison says. I nod my head and walk up the stairs, turning to Tom's room. I hesitate for a second but then lightly knock on his door.

"Come in!" I hear his voice say. I slowly open the door to see Tom leaned against his headboard with his computer in his lap. "What's up?" He asks, still typing on his computer.

"I can't sleep." I say quietly. He looks up at me as I rub one of my eyes trying to adjust to the light in his room.

"You look pretty tired to me, what's the hold up?" he asks, looking back down at his computer. I don't answer him, causing him to look back up. He gives me a soft smile as he lifts his laptop and blanket. I walk over to his bed, crawling over his lap. I wrap my arms around him, resting my head on his chest. He puts the blanket back down over both of us and rests his laptop on my back.

"I have a lot of work to do, or else I would have gone downstairs with you guys." He says, running his fingers through my hair.

"It's fine. I like this better." I mutter. I was so exhausted that I almost fell asleep just being there for 2 minutes. He chuckles at me as he runs his hand over my head one more time.

"Good night darling." He says as I slowly fall asleep, him still typing away on his keyboard,
