The groom and the maid of honor (a Tom Hiddleston story)

Meeting each other again

*Bree*
I look up as Luke steps in, then I see the tall man coming in behind him and my brain starts screaming at me, no no no, not him, this must be some kind of nightmare.

Before Luke can even introduce us, I stalk over, grabbing his arm. "Luke I need to talk to you in the hallway, now".

"Okay". He looks very much confused, but follows me outside, I don't look at Tom, but I can feel him looking at me.

When Luke has closed the door I look at him halfway in panic. "Luke I can't work with Tom, I simply can't, don't make me do this".

"What is the problem Bree ? I have known Tom for a long time, he is a nice guy and he is quite easy to work with, he never goes and do stupid things". Luke is looking at me.

I shake my head, thinking how wrong he is, Tom most definitely does stupid things. "Luke my cousin is Missy Whitmore, his ex-wife, this won't be a good idea".

"I know, Tom just told me, he also said that he wasn't sure you were professional enough to do this, I am sad to see that he was right". Luke says with a sigh.

Oh no, he is not going to make me look like the unprofessional one here, it could ruin my career before it even starts, I just have to bite my teeths together, I can be professional.

"You know what Luke, he is wrong, I can be the bigger person here, I gonna show him just how professional I am capable of being". I say and turn to walk back into the room.

As I walk in, Luke behind me, Tom looks up and a smile spreads across his face, damn him for being so bloody handsome, I mostly just want to slap him again, but it wouldn't be professional.

"Mr Hiddleston, a pleasure meeting you, and I promise you that I can be totally professional about this". I say holding my face void of feelings.

He grabs my hand, kissing it. "Oh I am sure you can, no need to be so formal, I don't remember you being so formal the last time we met".

"Well people would probably start asking questions if I start slapping you and calling you Ben, so probably better to stick with Mr Hiddleston for now". I hiss through my teeth.

He sends me the most cheeky smirk and then he muses. "Well I mostly remember you calling out, oh my God, but I guess that wouldn't be appropriate either".

I am so close to slapping him, but luckily Luke intervenes. "Tom stop being a jerk, Bree he is just trying to wind you up. You will both behave, I don't care what you two have been doing before, but you will both be absolutely professional understood ?"

"Yeah Luke". I say rolling my eyes, realising Tom does exactly the same as he answers.

  "Yup will do".

I get the feeling that Luke fear we will end up doing something stupid, like sleeping together again, but believe me, he has nothing to fear, that will never ever happen.

*Tom*
Okay I might have been just a bit bad there, but for a moment she just reminded me to much of Missy and well it might have brought out the worst in me.

I actually feel a little bad about it, I get her being angry with me, I fucked up and once again I curse not meeting her under different circumstances, I actually really liked her, I would have loved to get to know her and see if it lead anywhere.

But she is coming with me to New York to do some different interviews and promotion, so maybe I get a change to apologise to her, maybe even be friends, that is probably all I can hope for.
