Tom's Sky (¡A Tom Hiddleston fanfiction !)

#19

I spent the whole flight thinking about Tom Hiddleston staying at the same place in a different time.

The irony of life.

I came here because I was in the same time as Tom, but in different places.

Was that a sign?

That no matter what I do.

He will be there in my mind, around me, around the places I go?

The sign that no matter how far I run away, I will always end up finding Tom at the end of the road?

The sign that his presence is going to pursue me everywhere?

A sign that we would never be able to stay at the same time and place?

That we weren't meant to be together, even as friends?

This is the dream that every girl would like to have.

But a nightmare I would like to wake up from.

''Why does the flight back is always more exhausting?'' Michael complained as I opened the door of the apartment.

''I don't know... I wonder if it's because our flight was like... maybe, ten fucking hours late!?'' I asked angrily.

We had to check in at the airport's hotel, whilst we waited for our flight to arrive and there wasn't any other flight till tomorrow and I was not going to wait that long.

No sir.

Since my flat is the closest from the airport, they decided to sleep over and go home tomorrow, because they couldn't deal being one more minute sitting in the car.

We ate at the McDonalds from the airport.

We drove pass by Georgio's and I saw a lot of people eating happily.

I caught sight of Liam and Lauren attending the people and I sighed.

I missed them a lot.

Tomorrow I will be here early to see them and give them the souvenirs I brought for them.

I even bought a little something for Tom, which I'm sure I will never be brave enough to give it to him.

It was silly, but also, it was funny.

It was a tiny doll with a Mexican hat.

It looked very much like a voodoo doll.

I'm sure I will keep it with me, for the rest of my life, as a reminder that I'm a fool and a coward.

I was sure he would laugh out loud when he sees it, but he would take it because he's too kind and maybe he will even pretend he loved it.

When we entered, we stepped over a few envelopes on the floor.

''Damn it, bills to pay!'' Evy cursed, grabbing them and giving them a look. ''Uh! Oh! This is definitely not a bill'' she said, shaking the envelopes. ''...and it's for you'' she said and held the paper in front of me.

When I took it from her hands I realized it wasn't an envelope but just a handwritten note.

The first thing I checked was who signed the note, before even read what it says.

I always do that.

Sometimes it depends on who wrote it so I will read it.

My heart pounded out of control and my breath abandoned my lungs when I read who sent the note.

I just stared at the white paper, marked with blue ink, without reading anything.

I was afraid of what could possibly be written down.

Was it a farewell?

Why this has to happen just when I got back from the trip I did to forget specifically this person?

Why did I think that going far away for a few days could make disappear all I wanted to forget just magically?

''Dear Sky.

I've been informed, through my good and very chatty friend, Liam, that you've parted away for a trip with your friends.

I came to say hi to Donny the last Sunday and maybe have that lunch I promised to you, but unfortunately, you weren't there.

And you also weren't there the next day, and the next day.

It is not of my knowledge, neither Liam's, I must add, the time that you are coming back and if I still will be around when you decide to come back.

So today, I've come with this idea, a choice hardly taken for a few reasons, but I took the audacity to write you this letter as a farewell and to give you my apologies, if I have ever made you feel unhappy, due to my behavior, allow me to tell you that it was not my intention at any time, at all.

It was of my desire to tell all of this personally and not throughout a paper and a pen that possess absolutely no feelings, comparing to what it feels to express myself with my own voice.

I still hope to see you around before I leave the city tomorrow at night, I'm going back for the last time to say goodbye to my good old friend Donny and maybe, come back someday when the duty calls again, or the heart.

The love I have for this city and their people is infinite, I always come back.

So far, this is what I have.

Lots of love, from Tom Hiddleston. X'' 20-08-17.

Just when I read it for the third time I remembered... I wasn't alone.

Well...

Evy reminded me I wasn't alone, coughing intentionally.

I looked up at her and she widened her eyes in wonder.

''And then!? What is it!? Who is it!? What does it say!?'' she asked, expectantly.

I handed the note slowly at her and she took it quickly.

Her eyes scanning the words faster than I did and then, she stared at me again, with those big eyes.

''Mother! Of! Hell!'' she exclaimed, excited.

''This can't be happening'' I whispered and shook my head in disbelief.

I pressed the palm of my hand over my forehead, trying to cope with the fact that everything I was afraid of, actually happened.

He wrote a fucking letter to me!?

And reading those words felt so... familiar.

Like if it was normal for me to see these notes.

Why it felt so familiar to me?

''Sky! This is... he wrote this letter yesterday!'' she hissed and I looked at her, confused.

''Yes?'' I said, obliviously.

''Oh my! I thought you were smarter'' she said and held the letter in front of me. ''He wrote he would be at Georgio's today... right now!'' she squealed.

''You've got to be kidding me!'' I yelled and grabbed the note, once again.

Indeed, he wrote he would be at Georgio's tonight...

Holy! Shit!

''But Georgio's closing in like 5 minutes!'' I shouted and started to hyperventilate.

''Why am I still seeing you here!?'' she asked and I stopped walking in circles to look at her. ''Go!'' she yelled and so I did.
