Isolated (Tom Hiddleston x reader)

Forgiveness?

Y/N P.O.V.

"You're welcome," Tom smiled. 

OH FOR FUCKS SAKE!

''T-Tom hi Ummm how are you?" I stutter and put the chips inside of the basket.

"I am doing well and you? How are you feeling?" Tom bent down a bit/stood on his toes to get a better look at me.

"I am doing alright. How are you and Vanessa?" I avoided eye contact with his baby blue eyes.

"a few ups and downs but isn't it in all relationships?" Tom chuckles. 

"I guess so...I umm have to go pay and get home." I giggle nervously and turn to leave the awkward tension.

"Hey um do you want to walk together? I don't mind walking you home."  Tom extended to take my arm but decided to not touch me. Memories of the last time he did it. 

"Are you sure? I don't mind walking alone." I look at him and I saw he wasn't going to take no for an answer.

I sigh. "You surely are stubborn Hiddleston." I giggle softly.

"Sometimes it's a good thing to be stubborn don't you think?" Tom chuckles.

I giggle at him. We both headed to the till and paid for our groceries. 

My house was a fair walk from the store. Not too close but not too far either which was nice but I see today luck was not on my side. After the incident, I was hoping that I won't bump into him. a Week and BAM here I am.

5 minutes we have been walking in silence. We both were too afraid to say the first word. What would we even talk about? 

"Y/N..." Tom spoke with a shaky voice. I look at him and hum as a response.

"Did I do something wrong? You stopped replying to my texts and not answering my calls. You missed premiers and hardly any paparazzi photos." Tom frowned at me and stops dead in his tracks. "What's going on?" 

"I-I-I ummm" I look down at my feet and fiddle with the grocery bag.

"I-"

Does he deserve to know? He'll call you pity and emotional no. But he is my fiend can't I tell him? No, if he finds out why you'll lose him as a friend...

" I'm okay Tom." I pull on a fake smile. "Just taking a break from work is all."

"Really? Is that all?" Tom looks at me worried.

"Yes Tom." I smile as always and kept walking. Tom nodded and walked beside me and would occasionally look at me from the corner of his eye.

"How is Bobby?" I look at him. Tom's eyes sparkeld a bit and smiles.

"He is as playful and energetic as always. But just the other day he ate something he wasn't suppose to and I had to rush him to the vet." Tom chuckles and shakes his head.

"Is Bobby okay?! What did he eat?" I gasp and look at him.

"He is alright and healthy now but he swallowed one of Vanessa's wine caps." Tom shakes his head and rubs his face. "I was so worried for him and later I had an argument with Vanessa."

"Tom I'm so sorry but I'm happy Bobby is okay. You must've had such a fright, the other day Everest almost ate my mom's snicker that she left in the coffee table." I giggle softly and look over at him.

"I see we both have little misfits known as dogs." Tom chuckles and his tongue stuck out a bit as he did. You knew it was genuine just by that little clue. Its adorable honestly.

"Its worth it." I giggle. We walked up to my front door and I turn to Tom. "This is my stop. Thank you for walking me."

"Anytime and of you ever want to hang out just give me call, its been a while." Tom smiles and puts his hand in his pants pockets.

"I will." I smile and take out my keys and unlock my door and walk in. Tom walks away and I watch him leave from my window.

Should I just...

Let it go?
