Behind the scenes (Tom Hiddleston x reader)

Loving in secret

Now it's been a week since all of this ended. I continue to readapt to my routine and my old life, which means going back to university. At first I was so distracted with caching up on everything that has happened here, that I didn't noticed that neither Tom nor I had reached out to each other. And now I'm kinda scared that this was just a dream from which I had woke up now.

So I was not sitting in my third lecture off the day, minding my own business and writing an article which was today's task when suddenly my phone buzzed. It was Tom's number. I let out an internal scream of happiness as I felt my heart rate picking up and my palm began to get sweaty. I was way too nervous to look at the text but at the same I desperately wanted to know what it says. So when the bell finally rang and the class ended I had time to open his message. So after I found the perfect spot on the campus where ai could sit down and nobody would look upon my phone screen I tapped on the notification with shaky hands.

I read and reread it over and over the message saying 'hello Izzy, I'm sorry for not reaching out to you earlier. I had a lot of stuff to catch up with and I didn't want to interrupt your daily routine with getting back to normal too. But I miss you so much I was hoping that we could see each other again.' It was so lovely reading it and the way the was able to form even the simplest words into like a romantic poem. I replied that I miss him too and that I would be excited to see him again. We texted a bit and arranged a meeting for the upcoming weekend. I giggled a bit and butterflies started to pop up.

The week, after our first chat, flew by in no time. During the week I did my usual routine which basically consisted of going to uni and after that studying either alone or with friends. So when I woke up on Saturday morning I was thrilled and already kind of nervous. So after I had my breakfast I hoped under the shower, texted Tom for the final details and hoped under the shower. We were able to meet up so quickly because the was back in the US for the weekend. So we agreed the we will meet at a near by Cafe that I suggested at 3 pm.

So when the time has finally come to go I felt more nervous than I wanted to admit it to myself. My hands are slightly shaking and they had become sweaty. So when I arrived at the Cafe he was already waiting for me. When he saw me he stood up smiled at me and waved hello. We hugged each other and I immediately noticed his sweet and fresh aftershave. It was heavenly and intoxicating, which made my knees wobbly.

We both ordered our food and drink, which was for him a cup of earl grey tea and a slice of chocolate cake and for me a cup of black coffee and a slice of strawberry cake. Until our order arrived we talked for a little bit. I told him that I went back to university and he told me that he had gone back to London. I asked him how London is like and when he told me all about this magic sounding city I wanted nothing more than to move there.

In an unexpected moment I exactly said that. When the words left my mouth I saw his face pitting up in excitement and pure joy. "Are you sure my darling, this is amazing" he said excited. I nodded my head and my cheeks started to turn red by that nickname. "I mean yes but I would have to transfer because I would still want to finish my degree" I smiled. And just in time the food along with the hot drinks arrived. With our tea and coffee we cheered to that decision.

After we finished everything and paid for it, of course Tom being a gentleman and paid for it despite my protest, we went back to my place. On our way to my apartment we both kept our heads low because we both agreed that this is a secret for now so nobody should recognize us. I got more and more nervous the closer we get to the apartment and now Tom also noticed it. "Don't worry darling there is absolutely no need to be nervous" he mumbled sweetly in my ear. "I-I know it's just no one has ever been over in my apartment" I stuttered as we arrived at the front door.

The moment I locked the door right behind us he started kissing my neck passionately. I immediately gave into this sensation that spread through my body and a soft moan escaped my mouth. We both made out for a little while and eventually end up in my bedroom, where it all got spicy. We shared amazing intimacy and in the end I could barely stand up straight. I was way too tired so I snuggled into his save warm big arms and we both drifted off into sleep.

Two weeks later it was all wrapped up with me transferring from my university here in New York to the university of London. But that was definitely not all. Tom had stayed a couple of days longer and helped me with a bunch of things. He also met my mom again. The three of us went out for dinner at a secret spot so we don't get caught. During that we explained everything to her and she was more than happy for us, even though she was a bit uncertain at the beginning due to the age gab that we have.

Another thing that came in handy that he stayed for a bit was that we could spend more time together and get to know each other better. It was fun because one time we payed a small drinking game and every time we had something in common we had to drink. So we and up getting a little more than tips and I did my best tying to hide it in front of him. After that, the last thing I could clearly remember was his caring me to bed with his shirt off and my naked legs wrapped around his hip. After that almost everything was blurry.

So when I woke up exactly two weeks later I was filled with a lot of energy and excitement. Today was the day I move to London and even better I move in my Tom. When I got out of bed I then noticed how empty the apartment looks without all my furniture and decoration stuff. All of this had been pre shipped to the UK because it took the ship a week and a half until I would arrive over sea. A knock on my door made me realize that my mom was here to pick me up and drive me to the airport. But when I opened the door and expected to see her I saw that she wasn't alone. She had a handsome looking guy with her. It was Aaron, a gut she had a crush on for quite some time. I hugged their and shook Aarons hand in order to greet them. They came in and waited patiently for me to get ready. When I was standing in front of the mirror in my bathroom my mom knocked onto the door. I told her that I would be ready in no time and quickly apologized for taking so long.

She told me not to rush and said that she had just come to me that she wanted to tell me  that her and Aaron are now  officially a thing. I hold her that I was more than happy and that she deserves happiness. So I opened the door and hugged her tightly. So about half an hour later the last things are packed up in my luggage and we are good to go. 

On the way to the airport I asked them since when they are official. They both looked at each other and told me that it was a week ago when he asked her. I told them that I'm more than happy to for them and that they deserve all the best. But sadly we arrived at the airport and it was time to say goodbye, for now. My mom and eye had tears in our eyes as we hugged us for the last time before I boarded the plane and flew off to London.
