Diving Into Love, I Go - A Tom Daley Love Story

Chapter Twenty Four

Erin's POV

We arrived at the small Bed and Breakfast we were going to stay at for the weekend around about 9ish at night. The owner ussured us in warmly into the house and showed us where we were staying in. It was a large room with a big four poster bed in the middle, wooden furniture and floral wall paper.

As I checked the room out I heard the lady asked Tom if he was 'the bronze medallist Tom Daley'. Tom replied with a charming smile and from the corner of my eyes I saw that the lady was flustered and hurried back downstairs.

"Everytime" I shook my head at him jokingly and he just shrugged his shoulders, pretending to not know what I was talking about.

"I can't help the way they react to me" he laughed as he put our bags down. He approuched the big bed and jumped onto it with a thump and gave a big yawn.

"An early night for you I think" I commented as I open my bag to put my clothes away into the wardrobe.Even though we were only staying for the weekend I hated rummaging through bags for clothes in the morning. I could feel tom's eyes follow me around the room as I put everything away.

Half way through putting my clothes into the wardrobe I realised I forgot something. I swore under my breath and Tom heard it

"what's wrong?" He asked

"I forgot my pyjamas." I laughed at my stupidity. But inside I knew something wasn't right here. I was so sure that my pyjamas were the first thing I put into my bag. I could remember putting it in because Taylor was sat on my bed talking to me and I popped into the bathroom for a second to get my toothbrush. Taylor!

"You forgot one of the most important thing?" Tom laughed

"I didn't forget. I remember putting it in but Taylor must have taken them out for a laugh. That girl!"

"Don't worry, you can borrow mine" He offered as he got off the bed abd approuched his bag. He rummaged through for a momeny before pulling out a blue t-shirt and a pair of cotton tracksuit bottoms. He held it up with a cheeky smile and said "Top or Bottom"

By his reaction I knew my jaws must have dropped and eyes popped out when he sait it. He just laughed and threw the t-shirt at me.

"I'm only kidding"He smiled before making his way into the bathroom where I could hear him take a shower and brushed his teeth. He came out ten minutes later with a towel on his shoulders to dry his hair with.

"You know it's rude to stare" He snapped me out of my thoughts when he caught me staring at him, eyes lingering longer than they should. I shook my head and just told him to sit down on the chair. I walked behind him and took the towels away from his shoulders. With the towel I gently and silently dried his hair.

After I dried hid hair I went straight into the bathroom to shower and get changed into his t-shirt that was clearly too big for me. It smelled just like him with his crisp and woody scent with the hint of the swet and sticky smell of chlorine that I gotten so used to and begin to love. The t-shirt reached down to my mid thighs and I cursed myself because I didn't even bring shorts that I could wear under it. I was stuck with just wearing my under wear under it.

I pulled in a deep breathe and let it hiss out slowly as I pulled my hair up into a bun. I stepped out of the bathroom and saw that Tom was already asleep on the be, his breathing even and an innocent almost angel like look on his face.

I drew the curtains in, turned of the lights and snuggled in beside Tom. Tom shuffled in his sleep as he brought his arm around my waist and pulled me closer to his warm toned chest. He rested his head at the crook of my neck, his warm breathing tickling me but soon enough it started to calm me down and I fell asleep in his arms.
