Are you following me Mr Hiddleston? (A Tom Hiddleston Fanfiction)

Chapter 3

Tom bent down to put Bobby back on his lead which Tom had attached around his waist. Margot stood there awkwardly unsure what to do with her hands, deciding if to keep them hanging by her sides or to put them into her leather jacket pockets. Tom stood back up as Margot was in the middle of switching her hands from her pockets back down to her sides, after moving them already several times. Tom chuckled at her indecisiveness and watched her suck her lips in as she placed her hands back into her pockets.

"Sorry" Margot finally broke the silence.

"No, ehehehe don't be. If erm...you're not busy, would you like to spend the afternoon with us? There isn't a matinee show today" Tom looked at her nervously hopeful.

"I'd love to" Margot tried to contain her excitement as she bit her lip.

"Wonderful" Tom held out his arm to her which Margot gladly took as he smiled at her.

Firstly they headed down to the paddle boats. Although it wasn't the best weather Tom insisted on having a paddle around the lake. Margot agreed with a simple nod of her head. Tom hired one of the paddle boats for a couple of hours and picked the one with the lest amount of wet on the seats as possible. He helped Bobby on board first tying his lead inside securely, then Tom held out his hand to Margot guiding her into the paddle boat. The boat rocked as she stepped in but she knew Tom had her hand tight and helped her slowly lower down into her seat. Bobby sat patiently in the middle with his tongue hanging out. Margot petted Bobby's head as Tom took his seat in the back. The paddle boat owner untied their boat and cast them off, the boat swayed slightly as it was pushed from the side making Margot grab onto the sides.

"You're not scared are you?" Tom teased as he took the paddles in hand looking in her direction.

"No, I'm not scared just making sure I don't fall in on cast-off" Margot stared at him for teasing, Tom smiled as he started rowing further out onto the lake.

It was a lot winder out on the lake and colder, Margot shivered a little trying to zip up her jacket. Although the ride was quiet it was peaceful. Bobby sat on the edge looking over into the water watching it splash up against the boat and the paddles slap against the water. The entire way out to the deeper end Tom couldn't take his eyes off Margot, even when she did not return a look as she was admiring their surroundings. But Tom knew she knew he was looking as she would smile occasionally, as she drew in deep breaths trying to hide her rosy cheeks. Suddenly Tom stopped and pulled in the paddles placing them inside the boat just letting them drift around. Margot turned to look at him, running his tongue along his lip. Her breath caught as he did so and she felt the grin grow on his face and his famous "ehehehe" rang out.

"I just thought I never actually asked for your name" Tom raised a brow curiously. 

"Margot, Margot Foster" she extended out her hand to him, he took it and gripped her's firmly shaking it.

"Pleasure Margot Foster" Tom relaxed again as she broke the hand shake with her cheeks yet again turning a rosy pink. "God I need to stop blushing so much"  Margot thought feeling her cheeks. "Relax darling, we're only having a little fun" Tom began petting Bobby as he'd just been nudged by a wet nose for some attention.

"You're right, but you're not the only famous person I've met" Margot grind at him. 

"Oh really, who else has had the pleasure?" Tom's brow raised while giving a small smile.

"Well I met Charlie and Zawe last night too" Tom nodded in agreement "I met Pink once when I was 11, my dad took me to go see her live and we got back stage passes." Margot sighed happily at the memory.

"Good points to dad then" Tom leaned forwards a little as Bobby kept begging for attention and Tom gave Bobby a hug.

"I always wanted a dog but I never asked for one" Margot loved how cute Tom's interactions were with Bobby.
