Imagine This ( A Tom Hiddleston One-Shot)

Imagine this:

It’s been a long day but you’re finally near the end of it. You sip the hot cocoa Tom made you before taking Cassandra up to bed, you realize it’s been a good twenty minutes since you last heard anything from upstairs and you wonder if they both fell asleep. You tiptoe softly up the carpeted stairs of your cozy country house and peek over the top into Cassandra’s bedroom. There they are snuggled together on the window seat, Cassandra wrapped in Tom’s warm embrace, her father’s embrace. They have a blanket tight around them and Tom is reading softly to Cassandra.

You mull over that word, father, it seems so strange in your mouth. Can it really be? Is he really my husband? Even after these two years you still can’t believe it. You begin to panic thinking back on the days when you where alone and cold with no one to love, you grip the railing and try to calm your nerves. Then you look back at the scene in your daughter’s room. They are so quiet, Tom barely whispering to Cassandra, and they’re both so entranced with the story that they don’t even notice you watching them.

You smile and sit on the steps continuing to watch them. You realize, you are so blessed, so loved, so wanted.

And now you are happy.
