His Precious Present

𝙿𝚊𝚛𝚝 𝙵𝚘𝚞𝚛

After breakfast, you both headed to your rooms to get changed for the touring day ahead. You wore something holiday weather-appropriate. A cozy little sweater, with puffed sleeves, with a bit of off-the-shoulder action and a black string shoulder tank top underneath. With some long cuffed jeans. You grabbed a bag you had packed that was black.

You stepped out of your room only to see Tom getting out of his at the same time as you. He looked at you for a solid 5 seconds with little expression and then he smiled.

"You look lovely." his smile glimmered in the bit of morning daylight that coated the hall.

You responded with a pleased smile, "Where to first?"

He broke out of the little trance your beauty put him in. "Oh right umm- Let's just hit the road and figure it out on the way."

"Sounds like a planless plan. My style." You both laugh and head for the elevator to get to the parking lot.

~~

The ride down with the elevator was a little less heart-stopping than the one up. But you still got caught up staring at the now-morning clouds.

After reaching the lobby. The two of you stepped out of the elevator and to the front gate. In front of the gate sat a black SUV and a man in a suit uniform.

"Good morning sir. Ma'am." The suited man tipped his hat at us.

"Good morning Charles," Tom replied with a sunny smile.

"Where are we off to today sir?"

"Best true London touring spots. Miss y/n is new here."

"Ah, I see. I've got something in mind." The man in the suit smiled and opened the door to the back seats of the car for you. Tom allowed you to sit in first, so you thanked the driver and hopped in.

The driver took you both to a place in central London. Scene after scene the two of you were amazed to learn a lot more about each other than about the scenes.

Place after place you were so happy you were able to see so much of London in such little time. Tom got his driver to drop the two of you off at the riverside. He began walking with you along the fence by the river. Standing closer as the breeze began to build up.

"So why aren't you spending time with your family for Christmas? If you don't mind me asking-" he cut you off with a light chuckle.

"Don't worry. I don't mind. It's been a bit rough in that area lately." He kept looking forward as he spoke. Not managing to make eye contact.

"Sorry to hear that." You said sympathetically.

"Oh don't worry love." He reassured you, "Apparently we're more alike through this." He nudged your shoulder a bit which made you laugh.

"I guess it does." You smiled looking at the ground. Tom brought your attention back up when he noticed an ice cream cart by the walkway.

"Shall we?" He put his hand out for you to take. You smile and nod while setting your hand out into his. He gently held it while walking you to the cart.

After getting your picks in the cold sweet treat. You both made your way to a park bench by the most open part to the deep blue body of water.

Taking your seat. Tom sat close next to you. Licking your cone while amid a chilly day was an odd decision. But it was one in actual London England. And that brought you immense joy to think about. I'm actually here right now.

Silently enjoying your ice cream. Tom noticed the grin you wore while starting at the lovely calm London scene in front of your gaze. He smiled at the sight of your joy.
