Today was the day I had to leave London. Before going to the airport with my parents I went to Tom's house to surprise him. I knew he'd be home because it was early in the morning. When I arrived at his place he was just leaving for a morning run. When he saw me he immiedately smiled, let me inside and closed the door. When the door was closed we clung to each other. The kiss was long and passionate.

"H...Hi Tom" I had to interrupt our kiss to say something.

"Hi baby" My heart melted.

"I'm leaving to New York in two hours, which means I have to leave your house in one hour, unfortunately." I made a sad face.

"Honey, don't worry, we'll meet soon"

"Soon isn't enough though. I'm gonna miss you so much. Duh, I miss you already!" I hugged him crying.

"Shhh don't cry, Raven. I'm sure it's gonna be okay. We're gonna call each other and text each other and even we can facetime!"

"Yeah I guess that's true. But I'd have to keep a secret from my parents, because I'm pretty sure they wouldn't approve. But when I am 18 they won't have anything to say" A grin appeared on my face.

"I love it when you smile" said Tom and gently held my face in his hands. Gosh those fragile hands.

He kissed me very slowly. His lips were so soft

We cuddled for the next hour, not talking about anything. When it was time to go I clung to him. He held me in his arms and it was the best feeling ever.

"You know what, Raven? I'm driving you to the airport and then staying there and looking at your plane flying away as in the good romantic movies" he said firmly.

"But you can't, my parents-"

"I don't take no for an answer"

"I didn't know this dominating side of yours" I winked "Or... actually I did. Let me show you something." I unlocked my phone and started googling. He came to me with his curious face.

"Look" I showed him a meme about him.

"Hahahaha" he laughed. "That's actually kind of true. Sometimes I'm a good boy and sometimes I could be pretty bad" he paused. "Like Loki" he made a serious face.

I burst out laughing. "Fine you can take me to the airport."

While we were on our way to the airport I texted my mom.

Me: Hi mom! Tom is taking me to the airport okay? I'll be there on time.

My mom replied imiedately:

Mom: TOM HIDDLESTON?! Remember what we told you? ONLY a friendship.

Me: I know, I know.

Mom: You have a lot of explaining to do young lady. We thought it was a one time thing.

Tom looked at my phone.

"What are you gonna tell her, Raven?"

"That we're friends"

"But we're not, right?"

I facepalmed. "Of course not, dumbass!" We both laughed.

When we got to the airport my parents were already there.

"Hi mom, hi dad. Meet Tom Hiddleston" shook hands.

Tom's POV:

"Good afternon Mr. and Mrs. Walker" I said. I was a bit nervous.

"Hello, nice to meet you. Our daughter spent years talking about you. We're very happy you guys met" said her dad.

"Dad! No, I haven't been talking about him all the time, you're overreacting." She blushed. She looked so cute being embarassed. I almost said "It's kinda cute baby" but I stopped myself in time.

"I'm also happy that I met her" I looked at her smiling.

"Hey! But we said ONLY friends! We can't agree on you being with our daughter, she is still underage, besides the age difference is too visible" said her mum.

"Of course ma'am, I totally agree. I made it clear that friendship is the only option." yeah sure sure - I thought.

"Good. We have to go, Raven. Say goodbye."

I honestly thought that we would kiss when her parents head to the plane. I was disappointed.

She just hugged me, I hugged her back.

"Bye Tom" I saw tears in her eyes.

"Bye, Raven" my voice didn't break, but my heart did. Years of learning how to control emotions I guess.

Her parents went there first, she went after them. She turned around and blowed me a kiss. I saw her face. She was crying. My poor baby. I won't see her in three months. When Mr. and Mrs. Walker went through the gates and disappeared from my view, Raven quickly turned around, ran up to me, hung on my neck and kissed me passionately.

"See you soon, Tom" She whispered to my ear. The thrill of excitment went through me. Gosh I want now to be August. She ran away.

I waited near the window till her plane took off. I saw it fly away.

"See you soon, Raven" I whispered. "I think I might be starting to love you" I blushed uncontrollably. I quickly turned around, went to my car and drove away. I couldn't stop thinking about Raven Those ocean eyes This soft skin... The softest and the most fragile lips in the entire world

Raven's POV:

When our plane was leaving I looked throught the small window. Suddenly a shudder went through me. I felt like Tom was right next to me. God, I want August already. I can't wait to be 18...
