What Would They Say - mob!Tom x Reader

Warnings: Rape

Tom's POV

Y/N's words remained limited to 'Tommy' and telling me that she loved me. Not that I minded hearing her saying them over and over again. The nickname that normally pissed me off to no end felt calming when it tumbled past her lips and the soft smile that was set in place when she told me she loved me was one I had missed dearly.

Maybe she was getting better.

However, when Mum came in to visit her, bearing cups of tea for the two of us, Y/N whimpered, clutching onto my shirt, whispering "Tommy" over and over again like a mantra.

Mum looked torn up at the reaction her appearance had brought upon my girlfriend and was quick to set the mugs down on the bedside table and retreat once again, mumbling an apology to me.

I held Y/N tight, calming down the shakes that wracked her body.

"Oh, Princess, what did they do?" I whisper, leaving a lingering kiss on her forehead. "Mum would never hurt you,"

"Jess," Y/N whispers the word and I tense up entirely at it.

"Jess?" I ask, pretending as though I don't know what she's talking about.

"Jess," tears are rolling down her cheeks again and she can't get out more words, tears of frustration from not being able to convey what she wants to say.

"It's okay, Princess, shhh, it's okay. Don't worry, you'll be talking again soon, you don't need to be afraid, it's just me,"

Y/N gradually starts to calm down, but remains with her head nuzzled in my chest. It takes me a couple of moments to realise that she's drifted off to sleep. I sigh, running my hands through her hair gently before resting my head against hers and allowing myself to sleep as well.

"Tom?" I'm shaken awake later that day to be greeted with the grim face of Harry, looking down at me.

"The fuck do you want?" I asked, yawning, loving the light pressure on my chest from where Y/N was still sleeping.

"Haz said you'd get back to us about the footage but you never did," with those words I'm alert, I sit up, careful not to jostle my girlfriend too much.

"Have you watched them?"

"No." Harry said and I nod, turning to my girlfriend and gently shaking her awake.

"Tommy?" She mumbled and Harry looks shocked and I recall that he was not around when Y/N began to speak.

"Hey, love, I have some business to look after. You going to be okay on your own for a bit?" I asked, brushing some hair from her face.

"Haz?" She asked quietly, confused and I find myself smiling at her saying Harrison's name - or nickname. He would be so thrilled.

"Haz's coming with Harry and I," I tell her and she looks over at Harry, her eyes widening slightly in fear but she controls it, forcing her smile on her face but both of us can see her nerves through it. "You going to be okay?" Y/N nodded, reaching down slightly to rest a hand on Tessa and I smile at the action.

"Love you," she says as I stand and I grin, bending back down to place a kiss on her temple.

"I love you too, Princess,"

"When did that happen?" Harry asks as we leave her room, shutting the door quietly behind us.

"What?"
