Their last chapter (a Zac Levi/Tom Hiddleston story)

Tom's scent is relaxing

Amelia breathed in deeply, trying to get a hold on herself, it was the second time today she found herself crying in Tom's arms, he needed her support and help and not to have to comfort her all the time.

But there was just something so nice and safe about laying there in Tom's arms, it kind of felt like he was able to hold her just a bit together, keeping her from falling entirely apart.

"What happened Ami ? Something must have happened for you to come back here in tears". Tom's hands were gently running up and down her back.

She snuggled closer to him, breathing in his scent, it was comforting somehow. "He was in the worst possible mood, said he would never get better, that he wasn't you and then he asked me to leave".

"That he wasn't me ? Uh no he should be himself not me or anyone else". Tom sounded confused.

She sighed and looked up at him. "That might have been my fault, I told him to look how much progress you were making. I thought it mig inspire him, instead he called you perfect and said he wasn't you".

"Ami it might be a really bad idea comparing him to me or anyone else for that matter". He pushed a strain of hair behind her ear.

She nodded. "I know, I didn't mean it like that, I just wish so much that he would at least try".

"I know darling, and I would wish he would try to, both for his own sake, but also for yours". His eyes so soft when they looked into hers.

Right at that moment the door opened and a nurse stepped in, she stopped looking at them with surprise. "Oh did I interrupt something ?"

"No not at all, Ami just needed a hug". He looked at Ami, on one side she wanted to jump of the bed, like she had been doing something wrong, but the other part of her just didn't care.

"I better go, I think the nurses are gossiping about us, thinking I spend to much time with you". She whispered to him.

"Ignore them, they are always going to gossip, what use do we have for that ?" He whispered back.

He looked over at the nurse. "Would it be possible for me to visit Zac ? Just for a little while, I have been very good at doing my exercises".

"I can just check with the doctor, but I see no reason why not, as long as you let me get you there in a wheelchair, we don't want you to exhaust yourself". She answered sweetly.

He nodded and flashed her one of his famous smiles. "Of course, I promise to behave perfectly and go back when I am told to".

"Okay Tom, I just go get an okay from your doctor then". The nurse send Amelia one last knowing glance and walked out.

Tom sat up slowly. "Stay here and wait. I will go and try talking to him, see if I can get through that thick head of his, find out what is going on".

Shortly after the nurse came back in pushing a wheelchair, she smiled at Tom. "The doctor said it was okay, but only for 15 minutes, none of you have the energy for more".

"Of course, I will do as I am told and be good". Tom swung his legs over the edge of the bed, sitting up.

The nurse was at his side immediately, to help him get into the wheelchair. "And you have to promise not to upset or stress him, the doctor fears that his brain has suffered more damage than they first thought, since he is making no progress, so he can't get upset or stressed".

Amelia felt the nurse glancing at her while she said that, Tom just nodded and let the nurse help him into the wheelchair.

He sent her a reassuring smile before he was pushed out of the room, Amelia really hoped he could get through to Zac.

She snuggled up under Tom's blanket, it smelled like him and it made her feel more calm, now she just had to wait for Tom to get back.
