Chapter twenty two - Awaken

"I found your leggings after I dropped you at the airport. I cleaned them for you." Tom says.

"Thanks you're a lifesaver." I say.

I changed into my leggings on one of Tom's sweaters and then I crawled into bed beside him.

"Thank you for the gift." Tom says.

"You can stop with the thanking now." I say and smile and look at him.

"What did I do to deserve you?" Tom questions.

"What did I ever do to deserve a guy like you?" I ask and we both begin to laugh.

"I missed waking up to see you next to me." Tom says and I cuddle up next to him.

"And I missed waking up, knowing that you were here next to me." I say.

The next morning came and Tom dropped me off at home. After hours I made him go have a guys night. As I walked into my home I saw Jessica, Carly and Sam all eating cereal and string at me.

"It so happened." Jessica says.

"You're so gonna hand me twenty bucks." Carly says flipping her hair at Jess.

"Did they seriously bet on..." Sam cut me off.

"Yip. How was the sleepover at Tom's?" Sam asks me.

"It was amazing just to wake up and see him next to me." I say and fall onto the sofa.

"So did you two...?" Jess asks with a big smile.

"No Jess." I tell Jess and Jess and Carly over a twenty.

"Since we're all here how about a girls night?" I ask them and they all of.

I got ready for my day and then went out to shop for things we'd need. The girls night was a success. We had watched 2 seasons of Grey's Anatomy after one another. But then the door bell was rung. I jumped off the couch and answered the door.

I found Tom all dressed up.

"Let me guess, dinner?"I ask.

"Yip, in about thirty minutes." Tom says and steps inside.

I quickly ran up to my room and began going through my closet. I decided to match with Tom. Since he has on a navy blue shirt, I put on a nay blue evening jumpsuit with a black pair of peep toes platform slingback heels.

I was happy that the girls and I had gotten our hair done. Thank you to my best friends. I put on a blush colour lipstick, with waterproof mascara an eyeliner. I placed my phone onto my purse and then walked downstairs to Tom.

The restaurant was really fancy.

"You do know that you don't need to take me to these fancy places." I tell Tom.

"I know but I want to show you the places with the best food." Tom says.

"You're suppose to be with your friends Holland, having the time of your life."I tell Tom and ate of my spaghetti.

"Well I'm having the time of my life right now." Tom says with a smile.

"This is fucking delicious." Tom says as he takes a bit of his Chicken Cacciatore.

"I'm sure it is. So how's things back in America?" I ask Tom.

"Everything is great. Shooting Spider-Man : Far From Home was amazing." Tom says.

"And what about Avengers?" I ask Tom.

"It's great to. But what's sad about it is that in the end Iron Man dies." Tom says and I give him a blank look.

"Thanks for spoiling the movie Tom." I playfully roll my eyes at him.

"I'm so sorry." Tom says and gives me a guilty smile.

As we left the restaurant I got a call from the hospital saying that I had to come as soon as possible. Tom drove me to the hospital and then I received calls from my brothers saying that they are on their way to he hospital.

We entered the hospitality and I saw my brothers pacing back and forth in the waiting room. I ran towards them.

"They say we're not allowed in there until it's visiting hours." Bradley says clearly stressed out.

There was three hours left until is was visible hours. The waterworks began and Tom comforted me. I eventually fell asleep in his embrace. I was awoken by Tom whispering out my name into my ear.

"Mmhm?" I groan and sit up straight allow my eyes to adjust.

I immediately shot up when I saw a man in a white coat. My mother's doctor.

"Follow me." He says and we follow him, Tom included. I held his hand as we walked towards me mother's room.

"I've got good news. She's awake." The doctor told is before we entered the room.

I turned around and Tom hugged me. A smile played at my lips. This is great. She made it, my mom's awake.

We entered her room and I let go of Tom's hand and went off along with my brothers and hugged my mother.

"Oh, my babies." My mom says kissing each of us.

"And whose this dashing you fellow?" She asks looking at Tom.

"Mom this is Tom Holland..." Calum cut me off.

"He's Al's boyfriend." Calum says.

"But don't worry we approve of him." Bradley says, hopefully saving me ass, if mother doesn't approve... kill be devastated. But if the brother's approve then surely she would too, right?

We helped my money catch up on our current lives, she was surprised to hear that she had been in a coma for four months. She's one of those lucky people. Some are years in a coma.

On the other hand, she approved of Tom, and that being joy to me. I felt relieved in fact. But I still wanted approval of one more person but I couldn't get it, I would never get it...
