Take My Hand (Thomas Brodie Sangster)

Part 34 Thomas

I don't think I'd ever been so happy to see land in my life! 

We were all filed into a large building close to the port where boats of all sizes were arriving for those who had survived people sitting on the floor or on the few seats there where staff went around and taking names referencing lists of people they were due to expect here, and nurses and doctors rushing around taking care of people. 

We found ourselves in a corner to huddle in just enjoying the heat and the dry for a while. 

"You can see the doctor now Miss," A nurse said as she approached us, I didn't want to let y/n go but she needed to see the doctor to make sure everything was okay 

"Go on darling, I'll be waiting for you" I told her

"Okay, see you soon" she smiled giving my head a gentle kiss before she followed the nurse. 

I sat for a while watching everything around here when I caught chaos in the corner of my eye. 

The man stood arguing with one of the people taking names, he was arguing with them over the conditions he had to wait in the same as everyone else. 

Three guesses about who that was. 

I did my best not to be noticed by him but unfortunately, I was not that lucky, he noticed me and grabbed my arm forcing me up

"There you are! well, thank goodness you came to your senses. Now let's get out of this damn place"

"Let go" I snapped forcing my arm away from him

"Ohh for goodness sake I don't have time for you to be a problem I've been in the same clothes all night" He says "I've been on the phone and managed to get the hotel to let us in early, give us plenty of time to clean you up before we meet with Miss Sempleton" He explained 

"I'm not going with you" 

"but of course, we will need to do some shopping due to this damn company losing our bags, but I shall be dealing with compensation in the morning" He continued completely ignoring me 

"I said no!" 

"-You. you what?" 

"I said no. I'm not going anywhere with you, I thought I made that clear on the ship. I'm not going with you"

"Well, where are you planning to go then?"

"I don't know-"

"Don't be stupid, let's get to the damn hotel and get things back on track for the wedding-"

"No! I'm not going with you and that's final."

"What about your wedding"

"What's going on?" Y/n spoke up as she returned from the nurse 

"You!" My father gasped as he saw her 

"You know I think it is time I get my wedding sorted" 

"Good you've come to your senses-"

"I'll be getting married, today. to her." 

"Her!"

"Yes her. and if you have a problem you're welcome to leave, go do your shopping" I told him "Come on y/n" I smiled taking her hand and finding ourselves another corner away from him.
