You take a look at the mirror to get a glimpse of yourself. Checking for the 10th time if the make-up is right. You were back at london promoting your new album. A hobby of yours to get your mind off things that soon became a career choice.
-Flashback-
"I like this one better." Tom says pointing at the lyric sheet on the right side of the table. "But that one has more details and took me a lot of time." You say back. "Why not just present both?" He suggests. "That's a lot of time to make tunes and everything." You say.
"You ready?" You snap out of your thoughts with the sound of your father at the door. "Huh? Um, yeah. I'm ready." You reply back.
You didn't want to perform at the Marvel Event but your father, Robert insisted. Just some tunes on the guitar. He had said. You knew Tom would be there for sure. Having to part ways when each other's careers started left no choice. You stilled loved him. You miss him everyday. All the memories you spent for four years with him still cherishing in your heart but you didn't know if he felt the same way.
Tom looked around the crowded hall trying to find the rest of the cast members. "I have never seen this many people at a Marvel Event before." Harrison says making him nod his head.
A familiar tune echoed through over the voices. "You alright?" Harrison ask. "Yeah. I think I heard this tune before." He say looking around to find the source of it.
There you were. Wearing the outfit that Tom always adored. Looking beautiful as the first day he laid his eyes on you. Your head hung low focusing on the strings of the guitar. Gosh. He had missed you so much. Tom kept his eyes focused on you as if everything around him has been frozen and it's just you and him.
You lifted your head up to get caught Tom staring at you. He didn't move his gaze away. He sent a soft smile towards you. He had on a black suit with converses and a boutonnière on the left side of his suit.
You remove your guitar over your shoulders and get off the stage rushing towards the balcony door. "Y/n! Wait!" Tom says loud enough for some people to look at your direction but you ignored. You run in your heels towards the doors but Tom was right behind you. "H-hey." He says closing the big doors behind him. You sit at the bench removing your heels as your feet were hurting bad.
"Please look at me." Tom says almost desperate. You shake your head trying to control the tears forming. "Why not?" He asks sadly. He kneels down to look at your face instead. Through the dim lights he could see your sad expression. He moves himself up locking in his lips with yours taking you by surprise but you kissed him back.
As he moves away you lift your head up to look at him. "I missed you." You say trying to smile but the tears roll down. "I missed you more." He says wiping away the tears.
"I'm so sorry for everything." He says sitting next to you as you rest your head on his shoulder. His arm right around your waist. "It's not your fault, Tom. Things got too much." You say.
"Y/n." He says. "Hmm?" You ask. "We could start over again. We can figure things out this time." He says. "What if it gets messed up again?" You ask. He tightens the hold around your waist as your voice cracked with the question. "Them we will keep on figuring out and fixing it." He says with a smile.
"I can't lose you again." He says kissing your forehead. You lift your head up from his shoulder to give a kiss on his cheek.
"I'll get some ice to put on your feet." He says getting up. "It's alright." You say putting back on the heels. "No it's not. You hate to walk around in heels for hours." Tom says. You smile at him and laughs. "I still remember everything." He says. "I just want to go home." You say with a pout.
"Put on some ice first and then ask your father if we can leave." He says walking in to do all that.
"Too cold." You say as he pressed the ice on your foot. "I know." He says to which you rolled your eyes.
"Are you gonna take me on a date?" You ask looking at him. "Would you like to be my date at this Marvel Event?" He asks. "I would love to." You say. "Thought you wanted to go home." He says. "I do but I also want this date." You say smiling but the smile fading away.
"What's wrong?" He asks concerned. "What about the press?" You ask nervously. "People here know about us dating before. They'll protect us." He says assuring me. "Your father would take care of it." He says helping you put on the heels.
"There you guys are. I was wondering where the beautiful tune went." Robert says as you and Tom walk in hand in hand. His eyes landing on the fingers locked together. He smiles big before giving a big group hug.
"I can't breathe." Tom says as Robert laughs.
