Emily's P.o.V

"Hey Tom" I said walking up to him. He turned to look at me but just grunted and started walking away. "What's wrong?" I asked grabbing his shirt and he turned. "Go away" he said and I was confused. "Why? We love each other" I said but his facial expression didn't change. "Why would I love an ugly cow?" He said and I felt really hurt. "D-don't say that, it hurts" I said but he smiled a bit. "That's good. I want to hurt you, bitch" Tom said hitting me. "Please Tom, don't do this. I love you" I said but he hit me hard in the stomach and let me fall to the ground. I felt tears go down my face and looked up at him as he pulled out a knife and slit my throat.

I jerked up instantly and looked around. I was in Tom's room, in Tom's bed. I was covered in sweat and was still afraid. I looked at Tom who was still sleeping and I hugged him and rested my head on his chest. His fur made his chest very soft, which is why I liked burrowing my face into it. It was like a cloud and I loved that. My head moved up and down as he breathed and I smiled and hugged him tighter. He breathed in deeply and quickly before softly saying, "What's wrong Emily?" and I sat up. "Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you. I just had a nightmare" I said as he slowly sat up. "Are you okay now?" He asked looking into my eyes and I looked into his. "I'm fine now, I just need a minute" I said getting out of bed and sitting on the edge. "What was your nightmare about?" Tom asked and I breathed out. "It was about you saying you didn't love me. You hit me and slit my throat with a knife" I said and he looked down and said, "Oh". He got out from under the duvet and sat next to me. "I'm sorry you had that Emily. But do know, I would never do that to you" he said and I hugged him again. "I know, it was just a stupid dream" I said and kissed him.

We got back into bed and I lay half on Tom, half off. My head was once again resting on his chest and he kissed my head. "I'm so glad I have you Tom. I would never get love like this at home" I said. "What do you mean?" He asked rubbing my upper back with his left paw. "My dad only cares about me if something major happened. My mum is too busy with work and Joe and Chris are out pranking people" I said, a tear going down my cheek. I felt Tom's tail wrap around me and smiled. "Well remember, I'll always be here for you Emily" Tom said. "Mummy upset?" a little voice said. Tom got up and picked Jake up and brought him over. "I think mummy needs a hug Jake" Tom said putting Jake on the bed. He waddled over and hugged me. I kissed his forehead and hugged him. "Thanks Jake, now go back to sleep okay?" I said and he nodded. Tom picked him up and put him back in his crib before getting back in bed. I put my head back on his fluffy chest and closed my eyes. "Goodnight Tom. I love you" I said and I felt him kiss me once more before saying, "I love you too".

Timeskip To Morning

I woke to the sound of loud banging. I sat up and heard footsteps going downstairs. There was more banging followed by John's voice saying, "Yes, yes I'm coming. Be patient" and the front door opening. "What are you doing here?" John said followed by a voice that chilled me to the bone. "I'm here for my daughter" my dad's voice said. "She's not here. Why would she be?" John said. "Maybe because that autistic son of yours is dating her. And when she wasn't home last night I knew she had to be here" my dad said. "Wait, when did they start dating? And how did you find out?" John said as more footsteps were heard going downstairs. "Joe and Chris told me. They say they saw her come here last night when they came to prank you" my dad said. "Stan, she's not here. Try her friends" Carrie said but next was a bang and shuffling. There were footsteps coming upstairs and I hugged Tom tightly waking him up. The door slammed open and Tom sat up quickly. "You!" My dad said as Tom got out of his bed. "Get out of my room Stan" Tom said but only anger was on my dad's face. "How dare you sleep with my daughter!" My dad shouted swinging a baseball bat quickly hitting Tom hard across the face. Blood flew and hit Tom's wall as Tom fell to the ground. I quickly got out of bed and kneeled next to him. "Tom wake up!" I said shaking him before being grabbed. "What were you thinking Emily? This is a Henshaw, you shouldn't be with him!" My dad shouted at me as I struggled against his grip. "Let me go dad, Tom's bleeding! He needs my help... I need him" I said, tears streaming down my face. "We're going home and you're grounded for the rest of your life!" My dad shouted and pulled me downstairs, past John and Carrie on their knees. "Dad please, I love him" I said but he growled. "You don't know what love is. You shouldn't be dating someone as low as a Henshaw" my dad said making me sit in the back of the limo with him. "But we're perfect for each other. I want to spend the rest of my life with him" I said still crying. "You're going to be in your room the rest of your life" my dad shouted at me as we started moving.

Tom's P.o.V

I woke up and my head was killing me. "Tommy, you okay?" Derek said kneeling next to me as I sat up. "Yeah, I'm fine" I said and remembered what happened. "Where's Emily? Is she okay?" I said but a sad expression entered Derek's face. "Stan took her home. He probably won't let you go anywhere near her again" Derek said. "No I need her. She's my world. I can't live without her" I said starting to cry. "Its fine Tommy, you will be with her again. Just remember this simple saying, Love has no boundaries" Derek said and I was confused. "What do you mean Derek?" I said hugging him. "What I mean Tommy, is that you may have boundaries such as not being allowed to see Emily again. But love doesn't have that boundary, love goes where it pleases, and so can you. And that's the most important thing to know, okay Tommy?" Derek said and I understood. "Thanks Derek" I said hugging him tightly and getting up. "Get dressed, you have school" Derek said standing up and walking out. I closed the door and walked over to my bedside table. I got out some underwear and put it on my bed. I walked over to my chest of drawers and got out my light grey shirt with a black dragon head on the left side and my jeans and threw them on the bed. I walked over to my bed and took off my sleeping shorts and put them under my pillow. I grabbed my boxers and put them on, followed by my jeans and my shirt. I went out my room and walked downstairs to eat breakfast.

Timeskip To Lunch

"Oh Tom, you're alright!" Emily said hugging me tightly. "I'm fine Emily, but are you okay?" I asked and she nodded. "My dad didn't want me to come to school but when the police showed up asking I had to come" she said. "Well thank god, I love you so much" I said and kissed her passionately. "Does your mum know?" I asked and she nodded. "She was fine with it, it's only my dad who over reacted" she said. "Well thank god for that. Do you think she'll let you stay over mine tonight?" I said as she looked up at me. "She would but my dad wouldn't" Emily said and I grinned. "I'm sure he would if he knew I can get him done for assault" I said and she grinned slightly. "You're right Tom. I'll text her" she said getting out her phone. She sent a message and got a reply within a few minutes. "She said yes. I'll come with you after school" she said. "Your dad can't do anything or he might be arrested" I said but she didn't seem to care. "I'm fine with it" she said and I kissed her again and hugged her tighter than I ever had before. I'm never going to lose you I thought to myself and smiled.

Hey guys, thanks for reading. I hope you have enjoyed and I have seen that this book is nearing the 500 views mark. Also I wanted to mention, in case you haven't noticed Tom has mild autism, like me. That's why it's commonly used as an insult against him. Bye for now.
