My Brother's Best Friend

You and Emily kept staring at each other in a really intimidating way, until Tom broke it up.

"Okay! ehm... let's go meet the rest. Come on." he said as he grabbed your hand and guided you into the kitchen.

"You said you were going to tolerate her." he whispered.

"I'm trying." you whispered back.

You then saw Nikki setting the table. As she looked up and saw you she immediately made her way to you.

"Y/N!" she said in a cheering way.

"Nikki!" you said as you let go of Toms hand to hug her.

"We missed you! How are you doing?"

"I'm good and I was here literally a week ago." you said, slightly chuckling at the end.

"Yeah, but it's just different without you."

"Aww I know, I'm really special." you joked and you both laughed.

"And you weren't Toms' girlfriend a week ago." she said turning her gaze to a blushing Tom.

"Hi, mum.." he greeted and Nikki went and hugged him.

We talked a little bit, until Paddy interrupted.

"Mom is the food ready?" he asked.

"Yeah, could you call the others from the living room?" he nodded and did as she said.

All the family members soon were at the table and you happily greeted them all especially Dom - Toms' dad.

You loved spending time with the Hollands, they were like your second family.

You wanted to go for the seat on Toms left but Emily was faster, so you went for the seat on his right. Dom was sitting at the head of the table when he stood up.

"Hey everyone, I'm glad everyone could make it and I want to thank you all for coming." almost everyone nodded their head.

"And if no one has something else to say-" he stopped talking as he saw Tom standing up and you looked up to him.

"I actually also have something to say, kind of an announcement." you could see he was a little nervous but you didn't know why.

"I don't know if everyone got the news, but me and Y/n recently started dating and I honestly feel like the luckiest guy in the world right now." he looked down at you, a beautiful smile on his lips and a huge one appearing on yours.

A lot of "Aww's" were audible. And you couldn't help but laugh as you saw Emilys shocked face. He looked back at the others.

"And yeah, that's it. Enjoy your meals!" he said before he sat back down and everyone clapped.

Before you started eating you turned to Tom.

"That was really cute, you know?" you said a bright smile plastered on your lips.

"Uh-huh." he said as he came closer to your face and placed a kiss on your cheek, making you giggle.

Out of the corner of your eye you could see Emily, watching you. And you could swear you had seen a little bit of smoke coming out of her ears, making you laugh even more.

You're actually not like this, but it's just - her.
You didn't hate her, hate is a strong word. You just strongly disliked her.

After lunch you went and played Mario kart with Paddy as promised. Tom and Harry later joined too. Sam and Emily were there too, but they didn't play. And you won like always.
