Falling For Mischief - Book One in The Hollywood Gambles Series {UNDER EDITING}

15 - Tom Hiddleston.... My Boyfriend?

Lani's P.O.V.

I am so confused. I know everyone in this room but the fact that the one and only Tom Hiddleston is in the same room as me, is really something I'm having trouble wrapping my head around. Chris said something about Tom being in the car with me. 

"Why was Tom Hiddleston in a car with me?" Chris looked a bit confused. Well i guess the feeling is mutual. 

"You don't remember anything to do with him do you?" Chris asks.

"Ok first things first, who doesn't know him? Secondly, I have never met him in person before now." Chris sighs which sorta agitates me. I hear movement to my sides and see my parents and Luke stirring in their sleep. Who knows where Liam is, probably off galivanting or chasing girls. That is quickly put to rest when a glassy eyed Liam walks into the room and stops dead in his tracks when his eyes land on me. Was he crying?

"Were you crying Liam?" He looked apalled at me even suggesting that. I rolled my eyes.

"I don't cry. Men do not cry." Pfft, what a load of rubbish.

"Sure. You were crying, if your going to stereotype then try to figure out a way it won't back fire on you. I know you were crying because i'm woman and apparently we cry for just about any reason." His jaw dropped. Got him. I smirked at him.

"Damn. You got me." HA! If only he knew i didn't and I just got him to admit it. I smile victoriously as he walks over the bed which i'm laying in.

"Wanna know a secret Liam?" He raised an eyebrow at me. "I didn't know you had been crying and you just admitted to it." Chris laughs as Liam BLUSHES! I'm on a roll. I don't think I have had this much fun in forever. 

Another quiet groan turns my attention to the figure which is Tom Hiddleston on the opposite end of the room. Gosh, he's gorgeous. He opened his eyes lazily and they were an amazing shade of blue, complimenting his browish/blonde curls. His gaze locked with mine and I could help but feel some sort of romantic attachment to him. Like something went on between us. Or maybe still is.... 

"Hi." For some reason I spoke up first. He let out a quiet chuckle and i could tell it hurt him to do so. I looked at him, his chest was bare apart from the large expanse of white bandage that was wrapped around his chest. My eyes travelled down and landed on his foot that was in a cast. Damn that must hurt. I wonder what the extent of damage is on his body. By the looks of it only the foot and possibly a few ribs.

It was a bit painful to breathe. I came to realize that I must have done some damage to my ribs as well. I looked down at my chest which was thankfully covered by a shirt. I lifted the collar and looked down my top to see the same large expanse of white bandage wrapped around my chest. Wonder how many I broke.

"Hey Chris? How many ribs did I break?" 

"4 and 2 are cracked." Shit. That is bad. My head was spinning. I had 6 damaged ribs. I then noticed that Tom had been really quiet. He seemed to be thinking, about what I'm not sure but he had this look on his face that said 'I'm thinking..... I'm thinking.... I'm thinking' much like The Thinker statue from Night at the Museum 2. Don't judge me, its a good movie.

We locked gazes again and I once again had that feeling that I was forgetting something..... something important. One important detail that could and would change everything. 

"How long am I staying in here for?" 

"At least a week is what I was told." Chris explained. A week isn't so bad i guess. Wonder if Tom has to stay as well? It would be great company. 

 I went to reply when i heard someone else speak.

"Lani?" I turn my head and look at my mum. I gave her a weak smile and she was up in the a split second and by my bedside. I don't think i've ever seen her  move so fast in all my life.

"Hi mum."

"How are you feeling?"

"Sore." She nods her head in a way of understanding.... i think. I then turn to Chris. "You still haven't explained to me why Tom Hiddleston was in the car with me." I saw Chris turn to Tom who was staring at me. What beautiful eyes he has..... 

"Tom is your...." He trails off. I look back at him with a confused expression.

"He's my what?"

"Lani, Tom is your boyfriend." My eyes go wide and look at Tom who is still staring at me. I look into his eyes and i can see the hurt in them. I wanted to get up and hug him but that would hurt the both of us.

"B-b-boyfriend? Tom Hiddleston is my boyfriend? Are you for real?"

"I'm serious Lani. We went over to England as a birthday present for you. You two pretty muh hit it off as soon as you saw each other." I was still sitting there, trying to wrap my head around the situation. I have a boyfriend...... Tom Hiddleston..... Tom William Hiddleston is my boyfriend..... Wow.

A/N: Another chapter done and dusted. This one is a bit shorter as well. So do you think her amnesia is going to permanent or temporary? You will find out soon. I promise :) Until next time.
