You Can Count On Me - Tom Daley Fanfic -

Chapter Five

Toms POV:

'You're back early!' Mum shouted from the kitchen as I came through the front door. How she knew it was me is beyond on me, she must have a sixth sense.

'I know, Andy let me go early plus I'm going out,' I walked into the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of water out of the fridge.

'That was nice of him,' Mum said whilst washing the dishes. I felt bad that I was leaving her with Ben and Will but I'm sure she'll be glad to get rid of me. 'Where are you going? Remember you're due to move all your stuff out later,'

'Just going to do some shopping for my new place and I haven't forgotten, I'll be back around two-ish to move everything,' I hated lying to my mum about where I was going but it was only a little white lie, nothing major. I finished the bottle of water and chucked the empty bottle into the bin. I ran upstairs to get a quick shower before I went to pick Indie up. I stunk of chlorine from the pool and I wanted to make an effort, she seemed a generally nice girl. I got out the shower and changed into some shorts and a vest top, styled my hair and sprayed some Lynx. I grabbed my Ray Bans and my phone off my bed side cabinet to see that I had a text off Indie.

Here's my address, I thought you might need it!;) 3 Blueway Close, Eggbuckland x

I laughed a little, at least she'd had the sense to give me her address, I'd completely forgot. I read the address again as it sounded really familiar. Then it hit me like train.

'Mum! What's the address of my new house?' My heart was racing as I shouted.

'5 Blueway Close, why?' She yelled back. My heart raced even more, I was moving onto the same street as Indie. A huge grin engulfed my face. 'Tom? Are you okay?' My mum sounded concerned, I was that happy and surprised that I was moving to the same close as Indie, I had completely forgotten to reply to mum.

'Yeah I'm fine, I just forgot the address, that's all,' I shut the door of my bedroom and practically ran downstairs. The excitement was taking over me; I needed to calm down. I didn't want to tell Indie over text that we would be living in the same street so I just replied normally.

Oh yeah, I completely forgot, thanks!x

I walked back into the kitchen to get my keys and to say good bye to mum. I gave her a kiss and went to my car, I got in and put on the radio, Pompeii by Bastille was playing. I pulled out of the drive with the music blaring, this had my day a whole lot more exiting.

Indie's POV:

*Indie's house*

It was 9:55 and I was ready to go on a shopping spree with Tom. I'd been up since 6:00 because I was so excited for our day out. I'd text Tom my address and now I was just sat waiting for him to arrive. Owen was down stairs with Maddy, so I was waiting in my room so I didn't look eager. I really liked Tom but I don't think he feels the same way. It was now 10:00 so I walked downstairs.

'Hey Indie, you look amazing,' Maddy said as I walked into the kitchen. I was wearing blue denim shorts, a white top and white Nike Air Max.

'Awh, thanks Maddy!' I smiled at her. Maddy is like a sister to me, she's been going out with Owen for over 5 years so we've become really close. We tell each other everything, well everything apart from Tom. I haven't told anyone about him yet and that's the way it's going to stay, well apart from Owen who just thinks we're friends. I picked Lola up just as the doorbell rang. I started to run to the door when I remembered Maddy was still in the room. I changed my run into a speed walk and opened the front door. Tom was stood there in shorts and a vest and looked amazing.

'Hey, you look wonderful,' Tom said, his eyes glistened in the light.

'Haha, thank you! I'm just going to get my bag, one sec,' I popped Lola on the floor and went to get my bag from the kitchen. Usually Lola would follow me but she stayed with Tom, I must not have been the only one drawn to him. I picked up my blue satchel off the worktop and walked past Maddy who gave me a wink, back to the front door. 'I'm ready,'

'She's cute but she's not coming is she?' Tom said whilst smiling cheekily and pointing towards Lola. I burst out laughing.

'As much as I love her, no, she's not coming,' I carried on laughing whilst I shut the front door.

'Haha, before we go anywhere, I want to show you something,' A huge smile took over Tom's face as he grabbed my hand and pulled me down the street.

Tom's POV:

When I met Indie at the door she looked amazing, I couldn't take my eyes off her. I thought I'd tell her now about where I was moving to, just so it didn't slip out in conversation later on. I grabbed her hand and pulled her down the street towards my new house.

'What's going on?' She asked, trying not giggle.

'God, you're so impatient,' I said jokingly. That's what I loved about Indie, she could take a joke unlike some girls who get really annoyed. I stopped at the house two doors down and pointed towards it. 'Da-dah!'

'It's house?' Indie just stood there looking puzzled.

'Yes, and guess what? It's my house,' I just stood their, waiting for her reaction.

'Oh my god! No way!' Indie turned round to face me, he eyes were lit up. She looked generally excited.

'Yes way!' And I move in later this afternoon,' I got the keys out of my pocket and shuck them.

'Oh my god, I can't believe it! Indie yelled with excitement and threw her arms around me. I wrapped my hands around her waist and we just stood there for what felt like forever.

'You can let me go now,' I whispered into her ear.

'Oh sorry,' She replied, turning red. 'I knew you'd pull a stunt like this,' She said gaining her confidence back.

'You can count on me,' I winked at her. 'I'm moving in at around 3-ish, you can help me if you want?' She nodded in agreement.

'Yeah,' Indie looked straight into my eyes. 'But we better go now if you want to be back by then,' She stopped the eye contact and grabbed hold of my wrist to check the time.

'Race you too the car,' I yelled, before running back towards my Mini. I climbed in and waited for Indie.

'You're so quick,' She mumbled whilst trying to gain her breath.

'I know,' I winked back at her. She put on her seat belt and we made our way to the shopping centre.

A/N - Sorry this chapter is so short but it's more of a filler chapter than a full chapter, I needed to move the story on a bit.

Sorry if there are any mistakes.
