Staffroom Affairs (Waterloo Road)

25

Kylie woke up and frowned as she realised that she was in bed alone,

Kylie knew that a lot had happened with Tom but he had been off for the past week and it worried her.

Kylie sat up and sighed as she ran her hands through her hair. She walked through the house and saw Tom as he stood in the kitchen

"hey" she said as he looked to her and smiled

"hey you okay" he asked as she smiled

"I'm okay, guess. Are you" Tom asked as Kylie looked to him and smiled

"I am just worried over things you know. I just want us to be okay. I want to move forward of everything I know what to think over it all" Kylie said as Tom looked to her and smiled.

He walked over to where she was and placed a hand on her cheek and smiled

"I know that you are going through some stuff right now but it's okay. I am here and we are strong and what Adam did to you was awful but I also knew that we will move past it no matter what it takes" Tom said as he pulled her close and kissed her.

Kylie knew that she wanted to believe Tom but she knew how hard it was after how off he had been with her lately

Kylie got to work and walked into the staffroom and smiled as she saw Charley, Charley looked to her and smiled

"are you okay" Charley asked as Kylie sighed

"I don't know things are tense with me and Tom. He said he's fine and how he won't let what Adam did come between us but i am worried it will. I mean I love Tom and I want us to work and to be together but it's not that easy. Things aren't that easy with us. I just don't know what to think" Kylie said Charley looked to her and smiled

"I know that you are worried, I know that you love Tom but Tom loves you and this isn't going to come between you. I know it happened to you but Tom needs to process it to. He feels like he failed you, but I promise you he hasn't gone off of you or stopped loving you. I mean it's you and Tom and you are strong as nails and it will be okay" Charley said as  Kylie smiled.

Kylie hoped that Charley was right as she knew her relationship with Tom meant everything to her and she knew that the last thing that she ever wanted to do was too lose him and what they had

Kylie got home and sighed, she frowned as she realised how quite the house was

"Tom?" Kylie called

"In here" Tom called from the kitchen.

Kylie placed her bags down and kicked off her heels and walked into the kitchen and frowned as she saw Tom. He had the kitchen lit in candlelight as she looked to him and frowned

"what's all this" she asked as he looked to her and smiled

"well I wanted to proof to you what you mean to me, and I wanted to ask you something you have Been through so much lately and it made me see how strong you are so I wanted to ask if you would do we the honour of marrying me?" Tom asked as he got down on one knee as Kylie looked to him shocked but would she agree?
