"What the fuck"
Lauren locks you in and gives you a sad smile
"I'm sorry y/n but you need to listen what he has to say"
She says before heading into the house
"He? What?"
You shake your head and move your attention to what was In front of you
Or who was in front of you
You have got to be fucking kidding me
Your heart began to ache
God he was so close to you
The smell of him sent tingles down your body
But then anger hit you
"What the fuck is going on" you say.
"Sit down? Please"
"Kay" you say before sitting down on the small sofa
Tom sits on a poof that was in front of it
"You've probably got a million of questions you want to ask right now and I'll answer them but before I need you to do what Lauren just told you to"
Just listen to him
You didn't have the energy to argue with him so you just nodded.
"What happened is not what you think happed"
"What so I'm blind and I'm seeing things?"you say
"Y/n let me finish"
Tom goes on and explains what really happened and he even shows you emails and messages between Vicky and him
It takes you a while to process all of this
Tom never cheated on you
Tom didn't hurt you on purpose
Shit Tom didn't cheat
Your bottom lip starts to wobble
"You really didn't cheat?" You say in a low voice.
"No darling I didn't and I'd never dream of cheating on you"
A few tears rolled down your face.
"I'm sorry I didn't let you speak and for being cold towards you"
"There's no need for you to apologise"
Your heart hurt and now you felt like the bad one.
"Can give you a hug?" tom asks
Tom moves onto the sofa and hugs you
You hug him back wrapping your arms around him tightly.
You both don't say anything for a few minutes until tom speaks.
"God I've missed you so much"
You sigh
"I've missed you more" you reply
You part from the hug
"May I" tom asks looking at your lips before looking at your eyes
You nod "please"
A smile plays on toms face before tom kisses you.
You melt into him wrapping your arms around his neck then the kiss deepens.

You part from the kiss and tom wipes the tears that are still coming from your eyes.
"Stop crying y/n" he says in a soft voice
"I'll try" you give him a weak smile before saying "can we start again" tom looks at you puzzled.
"What you saying we act as if we never got together and we start from fresh"
You nod
"I feel like these past few months and weeks have been a total mess and we've both been hurt and i just don't want to remember it even though it's easier said than done but we do it properly this time and take things slow" you say before adding "i will understand if you don't want to do that or even want to go back with me"
"Sweetheart if i didn't want to be with you i wouldn't of came to la just to be trapped in a sun house with you so i can make things right between us..I'm okay with whatever you want to happen between us well unless it's us not getting back together"
You smile at him and nod
"So about them questions" you say and Tom lets out a little laugh before pulling you into him.
"Shoot em" he eventually says
"How did you know i was in la"
"I overheard you and Alex talk about it so then i rushed to my office and called Lauren and I explained everything to her thats when she asked me to come and last night she came up with his crazy idea to lock us in here i told her you wouldn't react well to it but surprisingly you did"
"Wow...honestly yesterday tired me out so if it didn't I'd of gone ape shit but I couldn't be bothered to argue"
"Any more questions you want to ask" tom kisses your forehead
"Hmm not really no, you've basically answered them all"
Tom chuckles "I've only Answered one of them how have I answered them all?"
"I was going to ask if lauren was in on it from the start thats why she asked me to one here so she could get us together but you answered that by telling me you called her after you overheard me and Alex"
"Speaking about Alex" tom says
"Hmm"
"I need you to pretend you're in a relationship with him"
You sit up super quick and face him
"What?"
"Only for a few minuets"
"Why"
"So i reported Vicky and she obviously knows about you and me and they're getting rid of her this week..knowing her she will tell them about me and you to get us in shit so if she does i want you to pretend that you're in a relationship with Alex"
You nod "okay i can do that"
Fuck Alex..
The memory of you kissing him comes back and a wave of guilt rushes though your body
"Um..tom?"
"Yeah?"
"I need to tell you something about me and Alex"
"You're together aren't you"
"What no i"
You become quiet for a few seconds.
"Y/n spill it out you're making me nervous"
"I kissed him"
Toms body posture changes
He looks at you,
the loving expression on his face
Gone
