Flight To Bliss - T.H

Chapter 13

Emilia's POV

The next few weeks were pretty boring. Nothing happened with my brother, and I still felt like absolute shit. Tom does ask me how I am doing but what am I supposed to say? I mean, hanging out with Tom has been so much fun, but Avery's there. I thought Tom and I had something? It's so mentally draining. I hear a knock on my bedroom door.

"Em, you up??" I could tell it was him, but what am I supposed to say, it's like 8 am I'm not ready for one of his "therapy sessions". He's still my friend..

"Yep."

He opens the door, "Avery and I are going grocery shopping, want anything?" CHOCOLATE. YES.

"Umm, could you actually get me something chocolatey?" I grinned.

"Every time I ask, every time!!" he said, walking out of the room and closing the door.

Tom's POV

I woke up early because I was planning to make a special lunch. Em has been having very tough weeks so far and she needs something to look forward to. I knocked on her door, just to ask her.

"Em, you up??" I hope she slept well..

"Yep." she sounds kinda..

I opened the door, "Avery and I are going grocery shopping, want anything?"

"Umm, could you actually get me something chocolate?" She loves chocolate.

"Every time I ask, every time!!" I laughed.

I closed her door and Avery walked up to me. She doesn't know about Corey and what he did to Emilia, it also wasn't my thing to tell her.

"She awake?"

"Yeah, guess what she wants? Chocolate." I laughed and Avery just stared at me. We both got in the car and I started driving.

"Hey guys!! Me and my Tom and we are going grocery shopping!!! Oh lemme read some comments!!" She went live. In the car. Oh my go-

"Yes, me and Tom are dating!!!" Why did she sing that-

"Awhh thanks soo much for the... compliments!!!" I looked over as she scrolled in the comments. I saw some compliments but then some hate comments. I mean it was horrible, she didn't deserve them. I think.

"Tommy, are you excited about Spiderman-Homecoming????" I had to stay focused on the wheel, but she kept nagging me.

"Hello guys! Yeah, I'm pretty thrilled about it!" I said momentarily, moving my glance to the camera then back at the road.

"Okay, well that's it today!!" She screamed. "Say bye Tom!!"

"See ya!" I lifted one hand off the wheel and waved. She ended the live and her mood completely changed.

"Can you get me a drink? I need to call someone." She dialed a number on her phone as I nodded and stepped out of the car.

Emilia's POV

I got out of bed and slowly walked to the bathroom. I cleaned up then went back to bed. Shoot, I left my laptop at Corey's. Shit. What am I going to do, I can't go back there can I? I need to, I'll be fine. If I was going to go back there, I had to be prepared. I grabbed my phone and put shoes on.

I got out of the taxi, paid the driver, then slowly walked into the apartment building. I started to feel anxious but I knew I had to push through. Walking into the elevator I started to fiddle with my phone case. What if he was there and he was going to hurt me. I had Tom on speed-dial kinda guilty that I didn't tell him. 

I stepped out of the elevator now feeling adrenaline rush through my body. I walked to the room fear filling me up like I was a cup of water. Standing in front of the door, thinking about all the negative possibilities. He could be there, waiting for me. Is this the actual right decision? I need my stuff but is it worth myself? I had too many things I couldn't lose. I convinced myself that everything was going fine. I reached out and twisted the door knob to find it unlocked.
