30 Days of Tom Daley..

Part 5...

~Steph's POV~

I woke up and as I looked around the unfamiliar room I was in, I got an uneasy feeling in my stomach. It was clearly a hospital room, but what had happened? Who was hurt? Was it my parents?! I sat up quickly and gasped as pain ripped through my ribs. I collapsed back onto the bed and felt a cool hand on my forehead.

'Mum?' I whispered hoarsely.

'No Steph, my name is Tom Daley. Your parents are getting coffee.' A strange but beautiful male voice filled my ears and I slowly opened one eye. I saw that it was actually Tom Daley. Yes, THE Tom Daley.

I groaned and opened my eyes properly. I looked down the bed at myself, I was in a hospital gown and there was a tube attached to me.

'What happened?!' I asked Tom.

'You don't remember? Chris-'

'Oh my God. Chris. He did this? He did this to me?!' I couldn't believe he would go this far. I looked to the other side of bed and my eyes widened. There were so many bunches of beautiful, beautiful flowers in my room.

'Who are all these from?!' I looked back to Tom. 'Are you blushing? It was you, wasn't it?!' I paused. What was he even doing here?  'Why are you even here though, what have I got to do with you?'

My eyes flicked to the door as my mum walked through it. She gasped and smiled as soon as she saw i was awakw.

'Tom was the one who found you and called the ambulance,' she said, a tear in her eye. 'He probably saved your life. Oh darling, I was so worried! Why didn't you tell us about Chris?!' That was when she broke down and the tears started streaming down her face. 'I can't believe I've been so blind! I feel like such a bad mother!' She put down the coffee that she was holding and hugged me tight, just as my dad came through the door. His face was ashen but as soon as he saw I was awake, he smiled and ran over to give me a hug as well. We talked about Chris and what had happened, about our whole relationship and what would happen next for over an hour. It felt so good to talk to someone about it, even if Tom Daley was sat right in front of me. He didn't say a word though, just sat there and listened, occasionally smiling when I caught his eye.

His smile really was gorgeous...

After an hour of talking, all three decided to leave me so I could rest. When they had gone, I looked in the mirror. God, I looked awful, there were cuts and bruises all over me. I shuddered and laid back down. Then I sat up with a jolt, Kaja! Chris had said that he had done something to her!

I fumbled for my phone and found it eventually in my bag that was next to me. I rang her and as usual, she picked up on the first ring.

'STEPH! Where are you?! What happened?! Are you okay?! I'm so sorry I told him where you were, Steph, I couldn't-'

'Kaja. I'm fine. It wasn't your fault. Are you okay? What did he do to you?!'

'I'm fine, he only threatened me. I tried to ring you and warn you, but you wouldn't answer your phone, I'm so sorry-'

At this point she burst into tears and in an effort to comfort her, I told her everything that had happened with Tom. Including the flowers.

'Omg, no way! Well what do they say inside?!'

I realised I hadn't even read the cards inside yet. I opened the nearest one.

'You're beautiful.'

The next one. 'You're amazing.'

And the next one. 'You're gorgeous.'

And it went on. There were thirty of them, all saying different things about me.

I opened the last one. It said 'Meet me for dinner tonight, and I'll prove that you were wrong about me. Frankie&Benny's, 7.30pm? See you there beautiful x'

I couldn't believe it.
