The one-night stand - A Tom Holland Fanfiction

Chapter Twelve - The anniversary party

Y/N's P.O.V

Tom drove us along the road, absolutely stunning landscapes of trees and woodland on either side of the car as we drove to the hotel for Haley and Harrison's anniversary party. I stared out of the window, my mind utterly at peace as we just drove along the country road to the sound of nothing more than birdsong. It was so quiet and beautiful, and as much as I was a city girl at heart, I had to admit that getting lost in nature would also be nice once in a while. I was pulled from my thoughts by Tom's hand landing on my thigh, making me turn and give him a small smile as he looked at me.

"You okay, my love?" He chuckled, his gorgeous chocolate eyes flicking between me and the road as he continued to drive.

"Yeah, just thinking." I nodded.

"About what?" He smiled, making me return it and bite my lip as I looked back out of my window.

"How beautiful it is out here. How quiet it is in the most perfect way possible. It's so beautiful and serene. You can just be with yourself out here, and I love that." I sighed in bliss.

"I agree, darling, it is beautiful. Maybe then the answer is for us to get married at the same hotel when we get married." He shrugged. My eyes widened, my heart violently jumping in my chest as I looked back at him.

"When we get married?" I scoffed. Tom's eyes widened, his Adam's apple bobbing in a gulp and his eyes timidly looking at me as he also realised what he'd just said.

"Shit-I'm sorry, love, I don't mean to sound presumptuous. But we have talked about it, and marriage feels like the natural next step." He nodded and shrugged, his eyes now glued to the road, as if he was afraid of my reaction. I bit my lip as my eyes stayed on him, though.

"'When' sounds good." I nodded as I spoke quietly. Tom visibly relaxed, making me smile and bite my lip as he chuckled and looked at me.

"Yeah, sweetheart?" He asked hopefully. I nodded again, only making his smile widen as we pulled up to the hotel. Tom stopped the car in front of the hotel, both of us climbing out and looking up at the gorgeous building that we hadn't been to in two years as we did.

"Hey, bitch!" Haley squealed as she ran down the stairs of the manor and straight into my arms.

"Hey!" I laughed, the force of our hug almost knocking me off of my feet as Tom and Harrison hugged too.

"So, are you guys excited for a night of insane partying?" she smirked as we walked in.

"Don't kid yourself, Haley, any night with you is an insane party night." I teased.

"Too fucking right." She scoffed, making me laugh as we linked arms and started to walk into the manor, followed by the boys.

"It's going to be a big night, mate." Harrison smirked as he patted Tom on the back. Tom nodded and gulped, a look of pure terror spreading over my boyfriend's face within seconds at Harrison's words.

"You okay, Tommy?" I asked with furrowed eyebrows. Somehow Tom looked even more panicked as I asked that, something definitely wrong with my boyfriend as he gave me a tight smile. The issue was that I didn't know what the problem was.

"Yeah, I'm, um, I'm just a bit hot. I'll be okay, sweetheart." He nodded.

"Okay. I'll take the bags up to the room, you get some fresh air." I spoke.

"Alright, thank you, darling." He gave me a small smile, making me return it and kiss him as I took the bags, and started to head towards the lift.
