- 09 - STAY WITH ME -

•3rd person's P.O.V•

Tom has been trying really hard to take care of his son and wife while she was getting better and also balancing with his busy schedule.

His mother has been of great helping along with the Godmother of Peter, Kylie.

She sat in front of Tom with a frown on her face as she looked at the pills that the doctor had sent to her best friend.

"These things are strong," her grey eyes travel to the one with the brown ones. "Are you sure these are safe for her to be taking? I've heard they're dangerous."

Tom sighs taking the pills back. "Calm down, Kylie. These are sent by the docotor."

Kylie has always been protective over the people she cares about and Katrina is one of them. She was there when she gave birth and even offered to stay over to help her if needed weeks after Peter was born.

Tom had to leave to work and Katrina was a new mom, overwhelming was her worst enemy then and it apparently still is. So that's why she's here bombarding Tom with questions and concerns.

"Yeah, until they're too much. I say you give her half the bottle, then we take her to be checked up again."

Tom just wanted his fiancé to be okay, and the doctor said she had to take these. "Are you the doctor?"

Kylie shakes her head no.

"Then stop acting like one. Katrina is my fiancé and if these help her then I'll give them to her." he puts the pills down before leaving to check on Katrina.

Kylie sighs before giving the pills one last look and heading over to the living room to play with Peter.

Up stairs, the brunette woman was laying in the bed with an annoyed look and unhappy.

Tom sighs when she gives him
the cold shoulder. He's got her trapped in this bed while he's doing everything around the house, she's upset.

"Darling, I brought you the pills." he softly mentions her and hands out the one medicine with the water.

Wanting him out of the room, she aggressively huffs before taking it to her mouth and drinking the water. Once done she gives him the glass back.

He can't keep seeing her this mad, but it's for her own good. Tom doesn't like going without speaking to her during the day. He's got to at least her her voice once.

"Darling..."

"Don't darling me," she scoffs. "You've got me trapped in this bed and I've got very important stuff to do."

Crossed arms, she fixed the grey hoodie that matched her grey sweats. Her hair was in a side braid while her face remained natural.

Tom eyes her up and down, before deciding to risk it and sit beside her.

Katrina tried to move all the way to the other side, but stops her and pulls her back in place.

"I know you're angry,"

"No shit Sherlock." she cuts him off.

"But I'm doing this for your own good. I want you healthy and strong. How things have been going weren't keeping your energy, but draining you completely." Tom's point of view has changed over the past few days.

He's realized that she had a lot of weight on her shoulders and that he was helping as much as he should.

Yes, he brought money home and fulfilled his dreams, but he was letting those at home down. Letting the people he should keep number one down.

"I've managed just fine for the past years. I don't need you doing my job."

"I'm not doing your job, Katrina. I'm merely helping you. I mean it, I want to help you and if you stop fighting me about it, you'll be out of this bed in no time." he hesitates to caress her cheek, but when seeing she doesn't move away, he touches her.

Katrina sighs feeling half-guilty, half-tired. She could feel how her chest stopped feeling so much pressure compared to before, but her brain was still drowning her.

Worries of all kind.

"What about your own job?" she wonders.

Tom sighs. "I called my manager, she'll help. I've managed to work and be home more often."

"Marvel won't be to pleased with you skipping hours."

"Then let them be. You're now my number one priority..." he leans forward and kisses her forehead. Katrina sighs involuntarily. "Just how it should've always been."

Tears fell. Katrina couldn't control them. She has lost control of her motions and now she was crying.

"I do miss you." she says as she grabs his shit and pulls him down on her so he lay there with her close and warm. "I missed you too much." she confesses.

Tom can't help but kiss her head then cheek over and over again. Massaging her arms with silly patterns as he feels her close and warming up to him once again.

"You won't have to," this time, Katrina felt truth in his words. She felt like he sincerity and strength to his words was back, not realizing how much it was missing before. "I'll be here with you."

"Can you stay in bed with me?" she asks.

Tom has to leave to work, but hearing her begs, he nods without a second thought. "I will."

"The whole day?" sometimes people need to get needy and there was nothing wrong with that.

The Hollywood actor nods. "The whole day and night."
