New love - Professor Hiddleston fanfiction

Chapter 11

"Ah Lauren how did it go with the essays", Jones asked me as I walked into his office.
"It was tough, but I managed to finish them. I hope I did everything correctly."
"I am sure you have. You're Hiddleston's best student", he gave me a warm smile.

I walked closer to him and laid the papers on his desk. He pulled me down by my elbow, bringing our heads closer.

"I totally understand why Hiddleston keeps asking the headmaster to make you his assistant", he whispered. I pulled back and answered diplomatic: "He only wants his best student to help him. Is that so weird", and left.

What the hell was that?

"Laurie", Sylvie walked up to me.
"Yes", I asked her.
"I see you've just come back from Jones' office. How was it? Does your boyfriend need to punish you", she asked.
"Will you keep it down thanks", I said rather frustrated.
"Come on. What did Jones do?"
"He acted weird. It was like he was jealous of Tom", you said while crossing your arms shy, thinking about what happened.
"God two professors fighting over one girl. This is the best update for my fanfic!"
"Oh do shut up", I scoffed and walked away.

Sylvie quickly followed my steps and noticed I wasn't too happy.

What have I got myself rolled into? I love Tom, I do and I know he does too. But we've never really just spent the day together like a "normal" couple. Everytime I see him we fuck or we tease one another.

I love those parts of our relationship, but it feels like we're more using each other than really loving.

"You're not alright", she said, laying her hand on my back.
"It's just Tom. I am just insecure I guess."
"Why don't you spent some time with him."
"I do, but we end up fucking each other and not just the 'typical' stuff."
"Well it's almost Christmas break. Do something with him."
"Like what?"
"Go out for a weekend, far from here where no one knows you."

That doesn't seem such a bad idea...

"I could ask", I said while pulling up my shoulders.

L: can we talk I need to ask you smth

T: Am I in trouble? 😉

L: maybe 😏

T: I am in a meeting now 🙄 Can I pick you up somewhere?

L: no it's fine, it wasn't urgent anyway x

T: Are you sure?

L: Yes love

T: Gotta go love you x

"So Tom's in a meeting", I informed Sylvie.
"Oh that sad", she said.
"Yeah I'll ask him later. Maybe we need to survive these exams first."
"Maybe we do", she giggled.

I walked to my dorm and started cooking some dinner. The laptop was playing some songs and dinner was quickly served.

I ate as much as I could and went to my desk to start working.

I took my books and made some mindmaps and resumes. I started working on Jones' subject first so I could finish with Tom's. Makes me more motivated to get actual stuff done.

Time passed by and I got to study a lot without getting any disturbance. I walked over to the fridge and took some water.

The darkness was falling over the campus and students started to go out. Sylv is probably among them.

A buzz came from my phone.

"Speaking about the devil", I giggled to myself.

S: Laurie! interested in a party tonight?

L: I need to study Sylv

S: Study... right... give my regards to Tommie!

Tom? Does she suspect me to hang out with Tom now? I wouldn't mind actually, a bit of quality time though.

"Speaking of another devil", I giggled when Tom's name popped up my screen.

T: Hi love ❤️ I just want to wish you a lot of luck with your exams. I know you can do it. Make me proud, even more than I already am. Love you xxxxxxx

L: You're killing me with the stuff we need to study. But we got this 💪

T: Sorry 😓

I giggled and threw my phone on my bed.

"Right Lauren you got this! Finish your work and then you'll get to spend time with Tom!"
