Ray of Hope (Tom Hiddleston)

Caught and Cuddles

Isabella's P.O.V

"Drop the Gun Jason.Smith" He says from behind pointing the gun on Jason.

Jason turns around and we saw Wesley standing with the gun pointing at Jason. "Oh, Kingston. Old friend, eh?" He says with the evil smile on his face. How does he know him?. Wesley motions at us to get Jason. Tom orders me stand still. He slowly walks towards Jason.

Tom quickly wraps his arms around his neck the gun drops from his hand. Wesley puts the gun back and helps tom. He look around and spots a rope. He ties Jason with it. I walked where he was.

"Why did you do this, Jason?" I asked feeling hurt. "Shut up you dumb girl. Your dad was the one who told us that he'll give half of the property to us but then him and then that bitch Brenda ditched us and I had no choice to bring you here and kill you off!" He shouts wiggling out of the grip.

"Us?" I questioned. "Yes me and Sophia! She was the one who bought you here, the two time that your house was broken into was her! Bloody bitch! She knew everything about that box and could have easily take the sign on those will papers but she didn't and even didn't told me because she didn't wanted to hurt you.! I decided to  shut her off and Ethan and Mia as well!" He shouts.

I went silent as if I seen a ghost. "You killed Sophia?" I asked. "Yes. stupid girl... her emotions didn't showed for the past 15 years but suddenly her love for you awakes!!" He retorts. "You asshole!!!" I yelled angrily hitting him. "Bella .. bella" Tom says holding me back as I continue hitting him. 

"Leave me Tom he fucking killed Sophia and was about to kill Mia and Ethan!" I said wiggling out of Tom's grip. "Bella. Control yourself!" Tom orders. I stopped. "Who is Ethan and Mia?" Wesley questions. I looked at him calming myself my down.

"Ethan is Sophia's husband and Mia is there daughter, my niece" I said as my voice cracked . "What?" Tom says in shock. "But didn't they died in car accident?" I asked. He laughs. "I kidnapped them and kept them with me to blackmail Sophia because she refused to work with me in order to kill you" He replies with a dry laugh.

 "And don't show that little sympathy towards her she escaped she is alive out there but won't be out there too long and let me tell you , she was the one who helped killing your mother and All" He tells me

Tears starts to flow down my cheek. Tom instantly hugs me. I sobbed. "Don't worry Bella, the cops are on their way, you'll get what you deserve Smith" Wesley says through gritted teeth. "I won't this house is mine and everything is mine!" He screams. Wesley punches him hard. He groans in pain. 

Moments later the cops arrive they took Jason. "Please take her back home I'll take care of the rest of situation" Wesley says to Tom as I still leaned on his body felling numb. "Sure" He says. He helps me get up and we walks back to his car. He helps in the passenger seat. "I'll be back okay?" Tom says. I didn't said anything.

He walks away. Minutes later Tom comes back gets into the driver seat and starts to drive. "I am sorry Tom" I said. "What for?" He asks his attention still on the road. "For earlier, the awful things I said to you. The people I knew for years and practically grew up with them back stabbed me for what? Money. And you being someone who just known me for few weeks without expecting anything in return you were ready to take a bullet for me" I said as I voice cracked.

"You don't need to thank me for that, Bells. You don't know for the past few weeks you made the happiest just being around you I mean I am like so used to you being around you. Everyday when I come back from work, I am actually happy to go home because I know its not empty, as your waiting for me" He says with a smile. 

"You shouldn't thank me. These past week all I have given you and the others is trouble and on top of that I yelled at you and you were just helping me protecting me" I said looking down to my lap as tears flow down my cheek. "Bella. Its alright. Its done and its in the past, we don't have to keeping revisiting it" He tells me. I kept quite for the rest of the ride.

I toss and turn on the bed from one side to another. I couldn't sleep. I got out of the bed and walked towards Tom's room. He had his glasses on and was reading a book. He sees and motion me to come in. 

I walked towards him and sat beside him leaning my head on his shoulder. "Couldn't sleep?" He asks his eyes still on the book. I shook my head. "Wanna hear this story?" He asks. "Sure" I replied. He began reading the book and I slowly found myself drifting to sleep he cuddles close to me and I cuddled close to him.

And for the first time I slept without any nightmares and without any troubles.
