Chapter 2: Travel Time.
"Happy anniversary love" Tom said bounding in to the bedroom with Oakley in one arm and Ilaura in the other "Are you all packed?".
"I am, has Helen packed all of the kids stuff?" i replied as i double checked my bag and our passports.
"She certainly has, but she asked if you could pop in and double check everything and oh she has something to tell you?" he said with a huge grin on his face.
"Anthony asked her to marry him!" i said with a smirk across my face.
"Hey! that's not fair, how did you know?" he asked placing Oakley in my arms.
"Tom, darling he asked me to make a little cake, for after their meal last night, so he could place the ring on it".
"Well act surprised, she can't wait to show you" he said kissing me on the cheek and taking the children downstairs to give them breakfast and get dressed.
I walked past the children's bedrooms and found Helen in her room with all 3 cases.
"You know" i said scaring her "I will never understand why Tom insisted the children have their own cases, i could have put all their stuff in our cases".
Helen smiled at me "I suppose he is thinking that you will bring more back" she giggled.
"Hey, i don't go that mad when i'm shopping, anyway Tom said you wanted to show me something?" i said as we placed the cases at the top of the stairs.
Helen held out her left hand and i saw the beautiful ring on her finger.
"Anthony proposed last night!" she squealed.
"Helen, congratulations you look so happy" i said hugging her.
We joined Tom downstairs.
"So how good am i" he said smiling at us both "Both kids all sorted and ready to go".
I had to admit i was very impressed with how he had managed to dress both of them and place Ilaura in her car seat and Oakley in his pushchair so that we were ready to leave.
We arrived at Heathrow and checked in. Max and Anthony kept an eye on some girls who had spotted Tom and where trying to figure out which one of them would approach us first, A young blonde girl of about 18 came and stood to one side of the pushchair.
"Mr Hiddleston" she said shyly "Sorry to disturb you both, we were wondering if we could have your autograph and a photo?".
She looked back at her friends as Tom passed Ilaura to me and stood.
"Of course love" he said smiling and pulling her into a hug.
After having separate photos with the four of them and one group photo they eventually move on, i watched him intensely as he checked on Oakley then sat down next to me.
"What are you looking at Mrs Hiddleston?" he said taking Ilaura back in his arms.
"Nothing, i just love seeing how happy you make your fans, especially as i'm still one of them" i said making him laugh.
Luke arrived with Angie to let us know our plane was ready, as we arrived at the gate i noticed that we were the only ones going through.
"Why are we the only ones going on this flight?" i asked Tom, puzzled by this.
"We have our own private plane love, just for us" he smiled back.
"A private plane! wow" i replied back, then noticed Luke's expression "Oh so it has nothing to do with the fact we're taking two babies on a flight and not wanting to disturb other people" i giggled.
