Emily's POV

I walked into Tom Holland's place, after leaving Caitlyn and Tom Hiddleston at her apartment, and I was staying with Tom at his place for the next few days.

I sat down on the couch and looked towards Tom and sighed, "I'm so sorry about all of this." I said to Tom, as he sat down on his couch beside me. He smiled warmly at me, and his hand was placed above my hand.

"I love having you here...with me." Tom added with a smile, as I smiled back at him.

We both ordered pizza and began eating it while watching a movie on TV. I looked over at Tom, and he looked over at me as well. We both awkwardly smiled at each other and continued to watch the movie that was playing on the TV.

"I'm going out for a meal with Robert Downey Jr tomorrow, and I was wondering if you wanted to come with me?" Tom asked me, as I smiled back at him.

"I would love to!" I said to him.

"Then it's a date!" Tom said excitedly.

That same night, Tom offered me his bed to sleep in. I felt bad, as he would have to sleep on the sofa, but Tom insisted that I sleep in his bed. I couldn't get to sleep, so I decided to have a look around his bedroom. I saw many photographs of him and his brothers. I noticed some memorabilia of Spider-Man as well, and I smiled to myself, as I looked over at the photo of him and Robert on his shelf.

I looked outside of Tom's bedroom door and saw the faint glow of the light still on in the living room. I made my way to the living room and saw Tom there, still awake. I crept up behind him and wrapped my arms around his neck.

"Hello, you." Tom said to me, with a smile on his face.

"Hiya." I replied, as we both laughed. "Why don't we just share the bed? You won't get much sleep out here, and you have to film your stunt scenes tomorrow, so you can't have a bad back." I pointed out to Tom.

"As long as you're comfortable with it?" Tom asked, as I nodded my head.

We made our way into Tom's bedroom, as we both stayed strictly on our sides of the bed and there was at least a meter between us.

"How come you don't talk about your family much?" Tom randomly asked me, as I turned around to face him. "If you don't mind me asking?" he added at the end of his sentence.

"I don't know, I suppose it hurts too much." I said.

"Why?" Tom asked me.

"Because I chose my career over them, and I feel bad for it. I had to leave my family behind in London to make it big here." I explained to Tom.

"Do you regret it?" Tom asked me again.

"Sometimes." I replied, as a tear fell from my eyes down to my cheek. Tom moved over and wiped his thumbs over my tears on my face.

"You've got me now." he kindly said to me.

THE NEXT MORNING

Caitlyn woke up in her bed to find out that she was alone in her bed, because Tom Hiddleston was not there beside her like he was last night, when they fell asleep. Caitlyn laid in her bed for a while longer checking her phone, and was about to text Emily, but then realised that they weren't on the best of terms at the moment, so she went onto her social media instead.

Tom walked into Caitlyn's room, went to her side and kissed her cheek, as he gave a soft smile to her, "Good morning, sweetheart. I left the room because I was on the phone to Chris and..." he began, as Caitlyn went to interrupt Tom.
