Tom's Sky (¡A Tom Hiddleston fanfiction !)

"Maturity
is accepting that
there will be things
in your life
That you won't
fully recover from.

You just have to appreciate
what a privilege it is
to still have things
that are worth
smiling about"

And that was me, i know i'm a better me now, not the best yet, but better, i will always try to be myself, but a lot have changed. I have changed.

I'm not the person i was a day ago, things are constantly changing, you have to keep moving, no matter how slow or fast you can go.

Never stop moving forward.

A year ago everything was different.

And now i look back and realize that a year can do a lot to a person.

I know i have made terrible mistakes in my life that lead me into dark days, but that doesn't mean everything's over, i wake up every day with a new chance to screw it all over again in a better way.

But there are always things and people worth fighting for and there are experiences worth learning from.

There is always a reason to smile.

But always doesn't mean all the time either, that has been proven to me multiple times throughout my life.

And now, was one of those "not all the time" moments.

When you think you have reasons enough already to be worried and anxious, there goes life showing you how good she is at proving you wrong.

Of all people that could call me today, or any other day, my brother's wasn't one of them.

I knew from the moment he said my name, that it wasn't something good.

"Skylar" his voice sounded troubled and off. "I don't even know how to..." he started saying but stopped.

"What are you on about?" I questioned.

I don't even know yet what happened and i'm already upset.

"Are you busy right now?" He asks, making me frown.

"Uhm... well, i just finished getting ready for an event, why?"

"It's... i- uhm" he stutters.

"Zach, what happened? Tell me!" I insists.

I can hear his hesitation from here and it's unsettling.

"He's here, he's... he-"

What the hell is he talking about?

"Zach, what the hell? Who's there? Are you in danger? Is someone in your house? Please talk to me!" I insist.

"No, i'm not in danger, sorry, i'm just shocked, i don't even know how to process this" he says and it freaks me out that he still didn't tell me what happened.

"What is it!"

"Dad's here, Skylar, he's here"

"Pardon?" I must have heard wrong.

"He's here, i think... i think you need to come home" Zach tells me with a broken voice. "I need you to be here, i can't handle this alone, or i could pretty much beat the hell out of him until he pass out or i could go cry in my room until he disappears again"
