The Jock

Pain

A year later

   I wake up to a crying baby, it had been a year since everything happened. I hadn't seen Harrison ever since the incident. I visited Tom every day, the first two months that everything happened I spent every second next to Tom's side hoping for him to wake up.

4 months ago
   Paddy and Sam were the only Holland's home with me right now. They had supported me through every step. Nikki, Dominic, and Harry had gone out to get some gifts for the baby since the due date was in a month. They usually left two of them with me that way if I needed help getting something or if I had gone into labor someone would be with me and the other would call whoever is out of the house. The only problem with the whole set up was that we didn't have a guest bedroom and they would have to sleep on the couch and the kids in a hotel, I had offered Nikki and Dom the bed in the master bedroom but they declined due to the pregnancy.
   I go into the living room feeling my baby girl kick me. Suddenly I feel a liquid go down my leg but me being me I don't mind it. Suddenly I feel a thousand kicks, I hurry to sit down on the single couch since Sam and Paddy were sitting in the other seat. I then feel more of the liquid go down my leg. I feel a contraction but as soon as five minutes pass another one comes. "Shit" I mutter to myself forgetting Paddy and Sam were in here.
   "Are you okay, y/n?" I hear paddy ask. I shake my head.
   "I think I'm going into labor, can you call your parents and tell them that my contractions have been five minutes apart and my water broke" I explain in a rush. Getting up, I stumble and Sam hurries over to me, I hear paddy speak to his parents who answered immediately. Sam helps me into the car which I had told him I was going to get the baby's bag. But he told me he would get it himself. I see paddy enter the back seat with me and Sam slams the trunk closed as he had finished putting everything in. He hurries over to the drivers seat. We drive to the hospital and again Sam helps me inside but as soon as he tells them I'm going into labor they put me in a wheel chair rushing me into a room. They close a curtain that way Sam and paddy can't see me getting changed into a hospital gown.
   "Ms. Y/n-" My phone interrupts the doctor.
   "Y/n it's the hospital" Sam yells, and the ringing stops and I hear Sam answer it still not knowing what was happening.
   "You have to give birth right now, the baby is ready and you are all the way dilated." He whispers but loud enough for Sam and paddy to hear. But I then hear the door close. Nikki walks through the curtain. My face lights up knowing I won't have to do this alone. Nikki holds my hand and they get me to the position. Not even asking if I wanted to do it all natural or a few shots they were getting me straight into it. I'm instructed to push 3 times in a row. Although it had only taken me two pushes. I lay my head back onto the pillow hearing my baby cry for the first. My eyes begin getting teary as I remember that Tom wouldn't be able to see his child, his baby.
   "You know when Tom and you were having some problems he always said if it was a girl he'd want her to be called Grace." Nikki speaks up, it made me smile because ever since high school when we were questioning if we would ever make it far enough to have babies, he always did say that he wanted a baby girl called Grace.
   "I love it" I say my opinion, the doctors put Grace into my arms. Tears start to fall down my cheek. Seeing her crooked nose, brown eyes that has a little sparkle like Tom's, and the same eyebrows. I feel Nikki's hand wipe my tears but I look up and she also had the same tear filled eyes.
   "He'll wake up someday y/n, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow but he will." Nikki quotes the last part from her sons that had said that to her a lot. I was in the bed completely normal, but tired of course. Especially since they had made me do it completely natural it was a big pain. The curtain opens and Sebastian Stan (cuz I lowkey stan... high key but Tom's better.) and Lizzie Olsen. By this point both Elizabeth and Seb had become apart of the family and I had shipped them so when I heard they were together I completely freaked out. (I ship). Both of them along with Tom's family has helped me re cooperate from his coma.
   Grace was being passed around from Nikki's arms to paddy's. But paddy never told me what the hospital that held Tom had told him.
Present
   I get up and head over to the crib, Tom's family had decided to buy an apartment so luckily they weren't awoken from all the havoc that Grace was causing. I get her into my arms and she calms down a bit. She was still yelling into me arms. I set her down onto my bed and I see that she had done the deeds on herself. I change her diaper and get her ready to visit Tom, I liked to call it the Daily Dose Of Tom, didn't make sense other than the daily part but I didn't even care by this point. As I put her in the newborn carrier, my phone starts to ring luckily I had it right next to me. I finish strapping her in before I answer it was the hospital. I quickly answer. "Hello is this y/n l/n" the caller asks.
   "Yes this is y/n" I respond
   "And you checked in a year ago for Mr. Holland?"
   "Correct."
   "Well we've got some good news, y/n, Mr. Holland has woken up, but you might want to come here as soon as you can"
   "Right I'm on my way" I speak in a rush causing my words to mix up. The caller ends the call and I rush Grace into the car, buckling the carrier in. I rush over to the drivers seat getting in. I make it to the hospital and run into the check in. "I'm here to see Tom Holland" I check in and the lady directs me to the room he was in. As I Enter the doctors stop me.
   "Ms. L/n there's something you need to hear."
   "What happened?"
   "Well he doesn't remember anything or anyone"
    "Wait... so... can I still see him.." I whisper, due to my eyes welling up with tears. I was absolutely devastated. My arm had grown weak due to the shaking from the shock and from carrying grace in the carrier. They let me through. And I smile at the first look at Tom but I then remember that he didn't remember me. He takes one look at me and immediately frowns. I then see Nikki and his whole family rushing in. As soon as they enter he smiles.
   "Mum?" He says confused, looking around knowing his family except me. I frown exiting the room leaving Nikki and everyone alone. I sit outside in the hallway. It felt as if I was jealous, I was happy that he remembered his family but for some reason I felt jealous that he only remembered them and not me. Yeah I understood why but the sense of jealousy wouldn't exit my mind, I was truly happy for him and all of them. Then a doctor approaches me.
   "Hello Y/n, I was just wondering who he would stay with as soon as he recovers." The doctor asks.
   "I think he will stay with-" I get interrupted by Nikki who was right by the doorway.
   "With us, he will be staying with us, we are the only people he recognizes so it would be better if he stayed with us." Nikki explains.
   "Right with them" I quietly agree. I nod and continue into my thoughts. The depressing ones now that I knew that it was probably going to be the last time I'd see him for a long time. The Holland's give me some space to let me talk to him. I enter the room with Grace, I see his death glare at me. "Right I take it you don't want to see me." I take a guess as I sit down. He gently nods. "I'm not good at guessing so why exactly" I question.
   "Well for one you cheated on me and another reason you used me for my money." He responded.
   "Okay Tom.. look I never cheated on you" my soft voice coming out.
   "The thing is I can't trust you. You could use this as an advantage so why should I trust you" He basically yells causing Grace to start crying, I pick her up and set her in my lap, her head buried in my neck.
   "Why should you believe the person who told you?"
   "Because they're the only people I remember. All I know is that that's my family, my name is Tom and that you cheated on me"
   "Tom, I never cheated on you, this is your child and 4 months ago I had to give birth while you were here and the only person who helped me out was two of your friends and your mother. Plus I was a celebrity as well so why would I use you for money."
   "Well I'll never know until I know that, that is my child and not some other guys and that I can remember you."
   "Fine as soon as you get out we are going out on a tour of places that you loved so much here in LA." I finish speaking. "C'mon Grace lets get going, love" I mutter to her.
   "Did you say Grace?" Tom asks me but I just simply nod before leaving clearly mad. sad. and confused. His family clearly said I cheated but why.
