The clothes felt amazing against my skin, they were incredibly soft and had the faint smell of washing liquid lingering in the material.
I left the bathroom and saw Tom sat at the edge of his bed reading a book. When he looked up a smile danced across his face.
"I wasn't sure what to do with the towel and my clothes" I said ruffling the towel through my hair again soaking up more water.
"I can put them through the wash and dry them over night"
"You're so sweet, has anyone ever told you that before?" I asked him joining him on the bed.
"This might sound like I'm coming on to you but I promise I'm just looking out for you" He started.
" I don't think you should go home tonight and be on your own. You hit your head very hard" He finished then looked down at his lap.
I couldn't argue with his logic, my head was pounding and Archie wouldn't be much help in the night if something happened.
"I mean, it does make sense"
"I can sleep in the spare room with Harry or Sam maybe" Tom said trying to figure out sleeping arrangements.
"Tom stop, I'm not gonna kick you out of your own room. I'm sure we can just stay in the same bed for a night"
He looked up at me with wide eyes at my suggestion.
"Only if you're okay with that"
"It's fine, although I'm like a personal electric blanket" I warned him knowing how my body heated in my sleep.
"I'd like to get my bag from downstairs and apologise to everyone"
"Rhylee, you don't need to apologise at all.."
"Still, I should at least say goodnight"
We headed back downstairs. I felt refreshed from the shower and my drunkenness and worn off but was being replaced by a nasty hang over.
The rest of Toms friends and brothers were gathered in the kitchen listening to music softly.
"I'm going to make up the lounge bed if anyone wants to crash" Tom said.
Jacob and Harrison offered to help out. They set about getting sheets and duvets for the lounge which converted to a large bed.
Stacey was swinging on her stool slightly.
"It was great meeting you Rhylee, my rides here but text me later. I wanna hear all about tonight" She said waggling her eyebrows at me suggestively.
I pulled her in for a quick hug and asked her to text me when she gets home safely.
I heard her call out a goodbye to everyone and Harrison walked her out to the car.
The twins, Jacob and Harrison all situated themselves on the couch with some snacks and the tv on, playing quietly in the back ground.
" We'll see you guys in the morning " Tom said as he took my hand in his and we walked up to his room. I could hear the other guys down stairs making cheering noises and small whistles. I laughed at them but Toms face had turned a dark shade of red.
We got to the top of stairs and went to his room. He seemed really nervous and I was worried this was going too far.
"Hey, if this is too much I can always get a ride home" I said pulling on his hand so he turned to face me.
"No, please" He said while playing with my fingers.
"I don't want you to leave, I just don't want you to think that I'm the kind of guy that does this regularly" He finished in a rush.
"Tom?"
"Yeah?"
"I think you're really sweet . We can just sleep, okay?" I said to him hopefully reassuring him.
He nodded at me.
"I'm just going to get changed" He said going into the wardrobe. I sat at the edge of the bed not sure which side to take. The door the closet was cracked the smallest amount and through it I could see Tom taking off his shirt and replacing it with a comfy looking tee.
He emerged from the closet wearing navy plaid pants and a plain navy shirt. Even in pj's he looked handsome.. I thought to myself.
"I, um, wasn't sure which side.." I said nervously.
" I prefer this one " He said while pulling the covers back. I hopped up and pulled my phone from my bag checking my notifications quickly. I was about to toss my phone back into my bag as Tom spoke.
"Theres an Iphone charger over on the desk if you need it"
I smiled a thanks to him and plugged in my phone. I padded lightly back towards the bed and pulled back the covers on my side.
Tom hopped in his side and removed his shirt throwing it on the floor.
He turned to me quickly
"Uh, is that okay?"
"Yeah that's fine" I said. The looks on his face was priceless and I slid off the baggy cotton gym shorts he had leant me before.
I was thanking all sorts of gods for choosing to wear some decent underwear tonight and not something with love hearts or avocados on them..
I tied my hair up into a big messy bun and slid in the bed next to him.
He laid back against his pillows looking stiff and uncomfortable.
"You look so uncomfortable" I stated as I turned on my side to look at him. He rolled towards me
"I'm sorry, it's not very often I have a beautiful girl in my bed "
I brushed some hair from his face so I could see all of him. He was so handsome and so kind. I had hoped that even after the events of tonight we could still be friends, or possibly even more..
" How are you feeling?" He asked cutting through my inner babble.
"I'm okay, my head hurts but I'll be alright" I said hovering my fingers over the cut.
Toms arm rustled under the blanket and I felt the heat of his palm rest against my hip. He was drawing small circles against my skin.
"I hated seeing you hurt like that" He said.
"I can't believe she freaked out like that, we were just talking" I said absently playing with his hair.
" I think i should probably try to get some sleep now" I said after a minute or two of comfortable silence. I pecked his cheek quickly and rolled to my other side.
I was just drifting off when I felt his weight shift in the bed as he scooted closer to me.
He wrapped an arm around my waist and I held his hand in my mine.
"I hope this is alright" he said sounding nervous. I was on the brink of sleep so my only reply was in the form of a squeeze of his hand.
