The Jacket 2 - Tom Holland Story

Chapter 3

Y/n Pov

I couldn't take it anymore. He used to trust me, more than himself, but now he's changed, for good. And now Marc is adding to this, there is something definitely off about him. I don't think he is who he says he is. 

I stomped down to my room and aggressively put on a sports bra and some leggings. Straight after that, I made my way to the gym and started boxing. I kept hitting and hitting and hitting. This was the only way to take out my anger without hurting anyone. Memories of me and Tom flashed through my head, the first time we met, our first kiss. 

Haz Pov

She's been going on like this for 20 minutes now, no break no water. I fear she might pass out or break the boxing bag even. I wonder what's got her so angry. It might've been Tom he's been off the radar ever since they took a break from their relationship. Suddenly, she stumbles back about to hit her head on the bar behind her so I run and grab her arm and back, stabilising her.

" Woah woah, you ok? You've been going at that bag for an hour now. What's it done to you?" I joke

" Sorry Haz. It's just....Tom. He doesn't believe me or even listen to me" she spoke, getting slightly teary.

I bring her to the table and give her a water.

" Believe you about what y/n?"

She takes a sip and says " Well um you see, at the meeting today, Marc was touching me inappropriately and when I told Tom, he said I was overreacting."

I knew it! I knew what I saw was wrong.

" I believe you, because I saw it." 

"Wait what? What do you mean you saw it?"

Well I dropped my pen and leaned under the table to get it and saw him clenching your thigh and you pushing his hand off. I took no notice then but now I know my suspicion was right.

She smiled at me and embraced me in a hug.

" Thank you Haz, for dropping your pen"

I smiled back rubbing her back, Tom was out of order but now we have proof, he has no reason not to believe us.

" Let's go talk to Tom. He should believe us now. I mean I am his best mate"

"Uhm. I don't know, we kinda shouted at each other and stuff and I don't really want to go" she mumbled looking down at her feet.

" It's alright, I'll be there won't I?" I smiled

Y/N Pov

We made our way to Tom's office, and honestly, I was scared. After the events that rolled a few minutes ago, I was not ready to face him again. Thankfully, Haz was there, and I trusted him. I'd be alright. Haz knocked on the office door and Tom shouted for us to come in.

"How can I help you Ha-" 

His smile turned into disgust as he saw me behind Haz. He unclenched his jaw and continued

" I saw it." says Haz

" Saw what Haz?" he questions, standing up from his seat and making his way over to us

" Marc. He inappropriately touc-"

" Just stop. She did this right. Persuaded you to turn against him too. That manipulative bi-"

He goes to grab me by the arm but Haz steps in the way. " Don't fucking touch her Tom." he snarls

They keep eye contact for a few seconds until Haz calms down and starts talking again

" Tom your being unreasonable. We have proof, I'm the witness and anyway, there's something dodgy about that guy."

" SILENCE" he screamed

His angry eyes told me his brain was in a different mode, that he had switched gears to a being cold hearted . Never once had he directed this mode towards mine or Haz's direction, yet here it was. His softer self had taken the backseat and the devil was now driving.

"Leave, now, both of you. If I hear another word about Marc, your fired. Both of you."

We continued to stand there is shock as he slammed his fist on the table earning a jump from both of us.

"NOW"

We left the room and started walking down the hallway.

" I am so sorry Haz. I really didn't want you to be caught up in this"

" It's alright y/n. Tom has changed, for the worse but I know we can help him. We just need hardcore evidence or a straight up confession from Marc"

" But Tom sa-"

" Enough about him, it's about you now"

Those words lifted my spirit. Maybe it was time to let him go.

" Wait, you said you thought he was dodgy. I thought the same thing. I told Tom that but he didn't want to hear it" I explained

" Yeah I feel like I know him from somewhere."

" Yes me too but I can't put my finger on it"

Me and Haz shared the same look. We were gonna have to go against Tom's orders and investigate Marc Rossi.
