"I'm not the monster on the inside." • [Tom x Reader]

𝟞. Somethings Not Right

Last chapter;
"I'll meet you downstairs when I'm ready Tom," I told him before leaving his room to go to mine. I had a bad feeling again... but I didn't know how to explain that feeling..

Y/n's POV

As I got ready I sighed searching in my closet for something nice to wear. I don't usually go to fancy things or any dinner night with friends so of course I wouldn't have at least a nice dress to wear.

I then pulled out a box from my closet with some old clothing in there from when I moved it. I opened the box, and began to remove pieces of clothing in hopes to find a decent thing to wear. Eventually, after pulling out almost every piece of clothing from that box, I found a dress... I think I wore it in high school for a dance...

I stood up and went to my body mirror holding the dress up to just give me a idea of what it could possibly look on me. It looked small... but I will never know until I try it on.

After putting the dress on it was definitely a bit tight in my hip area and chest. But other then that, the rest of the dress fit quite well on me. I went to look in the mirror and smiled a bit as I remembered what it was like wearing this dress. Of course I fit into it better back then but it still looked very nice.

Finally picking that dress you began to do your hair, put only a bit of makeup on, and finally whatever else I felt needed to put on. I found some matching heals to the dress in that same box and put them on. Now I went back to the mirror to give one final look and I just smiled at myself as... I really liked how I looked.

I then opened the door of my room and headed out and downstairs. Tom was already down there and he was wearing a nice suit. I blushed a bit as he looked at me and it saw his blush.

"Wow y/n... I'd never thought I'd see you in that again.." Tom says as I caught him eyeing me up and down. I rolled my eyes walking over to him as my heals clicked on the wooden floor. "Well this is the only nice dress I had in my closet, I was tempted to just come down in jeans and a t-shirt." I let out a chuckle as it stoped in front of him.

"Ready to go?" Tom asked me and I nodded. I softly took his hand as he offered it to me and opened the door for me. I smiled walking out of the house to his car as I knew he was going to drive. "So where does my lovely lady want to eat?" Tom asked me as he made his way to his side of the car and got in.

"Umm... how about (nice restaurant {not fast food place})?" I suggested to him as it fixed my dress as I sat down and buckled in. "Ohh, that sounds nice. I know a few friends there so maybe they can sneak us in one of those fancier areas," Tom says chuckling as he began to drive.

I looked out the window with a smile. As I watched I noticed a car from one of the side mirrors behind us. It didn't see any cars in the street but.. I guess it is a neighbor who just got out. I didn't want to worry Tom so I didn't say anything about it... but I watched to see if it would follow us all the way to the restaurant.

I soon turned to look in the back window and saw a car farther down the street pull into Our house... I grew worried and Tom caught me off guard with saying, "everything alright y/n?" Tom asked me. I sat right and looked at him as I know I couldn't keep this back, "I think we are being followed Tom." I said.
