Holding On For Dear Life
NORMAN FUCKING ROCKWELL - LANA DEL REY
"'Cause you're just a man. It's just what you do. Your head in your hands as you color me blue.":・✧ *:・゚✧ *:・゚✧
2019.
TENNIS SLOWLY BUT surely faded out of Willow's life. She didn't have a passion for it anymore, not that there was much in the first place.
Especially after her injury. She was scared to ever play to her full extent again.
Thomas still competed though, he was so good that he skyrocketed in rankings, making him one of the best players in the league.
The couple was still going... okay after three whole years of marriage, though, there were rocky times when Willow suggested finally starting a family and Thomas would shut down the thought. He didn't necessarily want to be a dad.
Willow began to believe he just wanted someone to call his wife. He didn't want anything else that came with the commitment. Hell, he was hesitant about buying a house together.
All Willow desperately wanted was a child. That's everything she's ever dreamed of, and now she wasn't sure if she'd ever get to have one all because her husband says his career is more important.
"Are you ready?" She questions, running her hand up and down his back in support.
His facial expression holds a miserable look, "C'mon, he's gonna beat me." He shrugs away from her touch as they walk side by side.
"He's not..." she was hesitant, "he's not gonna beat you."
"You hesitated." He sends a side-eyed glare her way.
She appears to shrink under his gaze. She wasn't afraid of him, she knew he'd never do anything to her, but sometimes he just got so angry she'd wonder if he would.
"I wasn't hesitant," She spoke quietly with her eyes trailing to the ground.
"It's Art Donaldson, baby." A sigh leaves through his nose, "I do not stand a chance."
Her lips form in a straight line and she doesn't say anything.
Fans cheer loudly as they walk out into the opening. Thomas turns to make his way to the court.
