Tom Holland

Last night with Ruth was one of the best nights I've had with someone.. Like, ever. Her cuddling up to me as she fell asleep, her begging me to stay with her in bed. It was amazing. Though, waking up next to her worried me slightly. What if it was just the alcohol talking when she wanted me to be in bed with her and she screams at me in the morning? It was worrying, but she stayed there and talked to me, before going to the bathroom.

I left when she went to the toilet, needing to get ready for a walk with Tess. I love taking her for a walk, especially in the mornings; it's cold, the parts are empty and the sky is beautiful. I changed into some walking clothes and a hoodie along with my blue beanie and grab Tessa's lead.

"C'mon Tess" I whistle, but she wouldn't budge.

"She doesn't want to today?" Martha questioned, making breakfast for the morning. I laugh and shake my head, calling Tess lazy. She huffed at me and rolled over to face the wall, like she understood what I said.

"Wha- Tess, I didn't mean it" I whine, actually wanting to go for a walk, and she needs one too... She's gotten a little tubby.

"Morning Martha." Ruth happily greets as she jumps downstairs. She's wearing a cute, yet lazy outfit; black track pants (how many does this woman have?), a tank top with a zipper hoodie over it that has skull lungs printed on the black cotton.

"Morning, Tessa" She coos, crouching down to give Tess a kiss and a belly scratch.

"She won't come this morning.. Pissing me off, aren't you?" I scoffs, shaking my head as Ruth smothers her with morning love.

"Can I come walking? I need to get fitter according to Harrison" She scowls slightly, getting up. Tessa gets up too after hearing Ruth say 'walk'. Of fucking course she wants to go know that Ruth is..

"Yeah, course. She actually wants to go now, the fucking princess" I laugh, waiting for Ruth to put on her Vans. Tessa trots up to me, sitting respectfully for me to clip her lead on. I clip it on, hearing Ruth run downstairs, out of breath.

"So... Where we going, Tommy?" She huffs, putting her hands on her knees as she looks up at me. She put a black beanie with a little spider design on to keep her head and ears warm.

"There's a park that we always go to, not far from here. So, we'll go there" I smile, opening the door for Ruth.

"How far?" She queries, patting Tessa's head as I shut the door.

"Hmm... About... 4, maybe 5 kilometers?" I answer, sounding more as a question. She gapes at me as we walk.

"5? Jesus... That's the walk there and on the way back? I'm going to die." She huffs, jogging a little to catch up to my paste. I laugh and nod.

"Not to mention the stuff in between too" I smirk, watching her face drop more as she groans.

We get to the park after Ruth's constant complains. It's empty, as per usual, but there is that odd biker, and walker every so often due to it being quite late if a morning. Ruth gasps at the scenery.

The grass shines under the pink sky, the clouds look fluffy and light as small snow flakes fall from them. The path we're on is a little slippery, we found that out as Ruth nearly went ass over head.

"This place is so fucking gorgeous, wow" Ruth gapes, looking at the sky, almost falling again but I grab her wrist before she could. I keep my arm there, ignoring the thumping of my heart and the feeling in my stomach. She leans into me as she looks around, looking back at Tessa who's running off in front of us.
