Tom’s pov
Today I was going to meet Katie’s parents and sister, I am honestly so scared they won’t like me, well I know Ellie will like me after that phone call the other day. But I’m scared about her mum and dad, they might think I’m not good enough, they might think that she can do better, I just hope they like me. I have about 1 hour and 30 minutes to get ready so I decided to go and have a hot shower.
After about 20 minutes in the shower I decided to get out and go and find something to wear. I quickly checked my phone and Katie had text me saying my mum and dad had offered to take us out for dinner as well, well this made me ever so slightly more nervous but I need to pick something to wear. After about half an hour of trying on different outfits I finally decided on a pair of jeans and a dark red top, was this okay? Did I need to go smater? I didn’t even know where we are going. I only had like 15 minutes until I had to be at Katie’s so this will have to do. I quickly sorted out my hair and grabbed my wallet and keys and got in my car on the way to Katie’s, I it strange that I had butterflies in my stomach? I drove up at her drive, got of my car, walked to the door and knocked. Luckily Katie came and answered the door, sensing I was a bit nervous and gave me a massive hug and told me everything was going to be ok, deep down I knew I was being stupid but I was so nervous. It the background I could hear someone basically like screaming it made me laugh not going to lie. Then I saw what Katie was wearing, she was wearing a light pink dress about mid-thigh she looked absolutely gorgeous I was so lucky to have her.
‘You look lovely Katie’ I smiled
‘Awh thank you, you don’t look bad either’ she winked causing me to laugh a little.
I walked inside the house and into the living room where I met her mum and dad, they were both lovely people and were so nice to me, I honestly knew I had nothing to worry about. Next I had to meet Ellie; oh this was going to be fun.
Ellie was 14, she was the typical teenager she just sat in her room by herself all the time so she hadn’t yet realised I was here. Well that was until Katie shouted up the stairs that I was here, I swear I’ve never seen anyone move down the stairs quite as fast as she did when she found out I was there, when she first got to me she was speechless it was a bit awkward I didn’t really know what to do, but I decided to just say hey and try and have a bit of a conversation with her, after a couple of minutes she finally replied and we had quite a good conversation she was just as nice as Katie, I just hope she doesn’t react like this every time I see her. Ellie was extremely excited to be going out for dinner with me I was so funny. By the end of the night I thought as if id know Katie’s family all my life, they were such lovely people and I could tell we were going to be getting on well, which I was pleased about. When we got back to Katie’s I decided it was best I went home as I had early training tomorrow morning they all understood and I said I would come back and see them all soon, I also promised Ellie I would bring my bronze medal round to show her as she wanted to hold one.
Tonight was the night I am going to tell all my followers about me and Katie, luckily she understood I didn’t want to lie to my fans and said it was perfectly fine for me to tell them tonight.
@TomDaley1994: Amazing day with @Kaatie_ and her Family, thank you Katie’
This got me a lot of mentions, almost all of them asking was going on between us, some of them saying if we were a couple we would be cute and some sending her hate, I was going to say something about that hate in a minute. So here goes I guess it’s time to tell them.
‘@TomDaley1994: okay, well many of you have been asking what’s going to between me and @Kaatie_ yes we are dating and yes I love her.’
I then tweeted another one:
‘@TomDaley1994: oh and if you’re real fans you won’t go sending her hate, you should be happy I’m happy.’
I was so happy I had told everyone about us, I think they deserve to know I just hope she doesn’t get hate, and I’m also seeing Katie after training which I’m exited for.
Katie’s pov:
Today had been amazing Tom had met my sister and my parents and they all seemed to get along really well, tomorrow I’m going to toms after he has trained to spend a bit of time with just me and him and then meet his mum and brothers again for longer later in the day, I’m honestly really excited. Looks like tom has told all of his fans as my phone seems to be going mental at the moment, I’m going to have to turn off notifications if this doesn’t stop. I decided not to check my twitter until tomorrow and let everything die down in the Tom Daley fanbase tonight.
*next day at toms*
I was sat on Toms bed alone because Tom had gone down stairs to get us some drinks, so I thought it would be a good time to check my twitter so I signed in, the amount of followers I had, had almost double! I started looking down my mentions, wish I hadn’t now, as most of them were hate from his fans, yes I had a few nice ones which I replied to but the others were hate, which I decided to ignore but carried on reading. Some of them were horrible and I don’t see why I was getting so much hate for this. I tried to fight back the tears, but I couldn’t just as I started to cry, Tom noticed I was crying and came and wrapped an arm around me and tried to wipe the tears away, he asked me what was wrong but I couldn’t answer I just passed him my phone and let him read the horrible tweets I had received. He decided to tweet on my account:
‘@Kaaite_ This is @TomDaley1994, please stop with the hate, se is my girlfriend and your going to have to put up with it, Thank you to my nice fans who tweeted her nice things , to the rest of you , TRY AND BE HAPPY THAT IM HAPPY!!’
Heres the second chapter tonight becuase the last one wasnt very long, what do you think? good? bad? feedback please:)
