Kidnap

Tom Holland

i woke up felling dizzy, not remembering so well what happened. i look around, its dark so its not so simple to distinguish the things around me. once my pupils adjust to the absence of light i found my self on the floor of one of the gardens of Buckingham palace, and then it was when everything hit

i was walking behind y- the princess on her usual night walk, then three mans pulled me behind a bush and start hitting me with some sticks, i try to fight back but it was useless, after all I'm one and they where three, then it all went dark. everything hurt me and i bet I'm bleeding. holy shit Y/n!

i stand up using all my strengths, the armor is heavier than usual what makes it harder for me to walk. no sign of her. maybe she's in her room and just forgot about me. its dawn, i have been unconscious for hours and if she's not there I'm literally dead, and i would deserve it. i ha just one job and i failed

"oh god Thomas, what happened to you?" Amanda, one of the maids, asked as her green eyes picture my injured body entering the palace. she throw her feather duster and gently put her arm around me to help me walk in the direction of the kitchen

"no, i need to find Y/n" every time a word or even a single sound escape my mouth my ribs hurt

"what you need is to clean that injures" we continue walking towards the service area, "why do you need to find the princess" for a moment i forgot about her tittle, that i need to call her like that and not by her name as if we were the same. but the only thing i can think about is her being safe

"some guys-" even my soul hurts

"don't talk, you'll just hurt yourself even more" she set me down gently on a wooden chair in the kitchen and everyone there started to prepare some things to clean my bloody self

the took the armor away just to reveal even more wounds. the only fact of the rag passing all over my body hurts, and they are applying pressure, what makes it worst

"you have to see the doctor" one of the cooker said, and she's not wrong

"have someone seen the princess" another maid said with anguish in her voice as she run down the stairs

shit

"what are you doing? you have to stay here" Amanda ordered but i wont stay here while she's god knows where

"i need to find her" i start putting my armor again. it hurts but it was my fault after all

"no, you're staying here, there are more guards who are already searching for her" i ignore her, "Thomas, it wasn't your fault, look at you, how many where them?" i stay in silence. "come on, where taking you to see a doctor, shell be fine, she's the princess, the whole army would be searching for her"

so they did, they took me with a doctor, and I'm way worst that i thought. i have to rest, or that's what they said, but as soon as they're gone I'm too. i wont stay here, i need to find her

i scape by the window, its harder than in the training, maybe because i have a broken rib, arm, and parts i didn't even know i have hurt like hell. but i can bear the grief, ill do anything to find her, ill do anything to protect her

the first thought that came to my mind was that they took her to the village, i grew up there, i know it as the palm of my hand. but also i haven't been there in almost three years and i heard Robert saying its not what it used to be. maybe he was saying it in the good way, but something deep inside tell me the whole opposite

ill need help from someone

—— ♡ ——

"Tom?" the voice that calmed me down for years spoke, i hadn't heard my name in that voice for so long. "tom" she affirmed, her eyes teary and her arms where quickly to tangle my body. a pain sound left my mouth and her arms left my body quickly as a lighting

i missed her. i missed the woman who took care of me for more than nineteen years. the woman that always cheered me up. the woman who saw me fall and helped me get up. the first woman of my life. my mother

"what happened to you" distress in her tone

"long story, can i come in" she nodded and made space for me to enter

as soon as i get in the small wooden and dirty, but not ugly house my brothers and father stayed in shook, not so much later they greeted me and tell me how much they missed me, and so as my mother, asked what happened to me

they are so grown up, three years a lot. and I'm lucky to see them. when i accepted the job at the palace we all knew we wouldn't see each other again, but i always wanted to be a knight and they were so happy for me

"i need your help" for more that i missed them and want to have a nice talk with them, y/n is my mind, and i cant be like if nothing is happening when she can be suffering or worst right now. the put all their attention on me. "is there a place where they can take someone without a lot of people knowing?" they seem to don't understand, "okay, I'm gonna tell you but you can tell no one" they agreed and i told them the princess had been kidnapped

they were all in shocked, but not much later, Paddy, the youngest of my brothers told me about a place.

my mom wanted me to stay a little bit longer, not to socialize, to recover, but i cant wait any longer. "be careful" my dad voice warned me before i left the not so secure door, "England is not longer what it used to be" i nodded, said goodbye and walked out the place where i grew up

"wait tom" mom stopped me, "tell her how you feel"

"mom i don't know what you're talking about, its my job" I'm trying to avoid every thought of her that is out of place

"i see the glimmer in your eyes, and those are just tittles, you cant avoid what your heart choose" she smiled gently, "but whatever you say. go and find your princess" she kissed my check and even it hurts i accepted it. i give her a smile and start my road, "I'm proud of you" she yelled and those where the last words i heard from her mouth

everything is horrible, there are more people on the streets than it used to. what happened here? it wasn't that bad

i wish i could give something to this people, but i have nothing

I'm not rich, but there, in the palace, you eat delicious things, they're not made for you but the royal family never finish their food, yeah we eat leftovers most of the times, but its still delicious. and Y/n somehow manage to stay with a whole plate of something sometimes, she's so kind. she's the only who knows every name, the name of every employee, she talk to everyone and never has been disrespectful with someone. in the other hand her father, brothers and sibling threat everyone that doesn't has a tittle as trash, except for Leopold and Colette, they are irreverent

found it, this is like a haunted house, its so damage, you can see it falling in pieces, you can hear noises. but every fear is gone when we talk about y/n, everything is different when its about her. i open the door and...
