Request by Nonny: Love ur Hiddles fics ❤️ Had an idea for a fic where reader is an actress working with Tom and he notices she's not feeling well. Later he notices a blood stain on the back of her pants and realises why she wasn't well and helps her out so she isn't embarrassed. And of course he's such a gentleman about the whole situation.
Pairing: Tom Hiddleston x Actress!Reader
Warning(s): Period things, Tom being a gentlemen, idk man probably some other things I can't think of...
For Tom, today on set had pretty much been a blast...until it wasn't.
He started off in hair and makeup; cracking jokes with Jeni and Abigail the artist and stylist assigned to him. They truly were lovely people--especially when they encouraged his corny "dad" jokes for hours on end.
Then he moved onto wardrobe, where he proceeded to clown around for an hour; whether it be by singing the lyrics to some his favourite renditions of Hank Williams' songs (yes, with the accent), or insisting that he be able to run around the studio to prepare a prank for this "brother from another mother."
The day was going extremely well; it felt like nothing to steal its thunder...
But when he made it onto the sound stage, there was a disturbance in the force; and all it took was a quick glance at you to figure out what it was.
Instead of the usual cheery smile that graced your exquisite face was a frown that could eerily resemble Loki's. A frown of his own flashed across his features; what was upsetting you?
Making his way towards you, he tried to figure out what it could be.
Maybe it's just one of those days where everything goes wrong? Highly unlikely; you were extremely organised; it took a lot for everything to go wrong for you.
Maybe she received some bad news? There was that one roll you were really looking forward to; maybe you didn't get the part?
All possible scenarios came to an abrupt stop when he reached you.
"Are you alright, Darling? You don't look well."
You shifted to face him, "I'm fine, Tommy." He rolled his eyes. You were the only one that could get away with that ridiculous nickname.
"Stop deflecting with that hideous nickname, Darling. I know something is wrong. Your beautiful smile that could rival Asgard itself hasn't graced me with it's presence today."
You slightly smiled at him, "I promise, I'm fine, Tom."
He huffed, "I may only play the God of Lies, but even I could see that you were fibbing."
You chuckled, your radiant smile almost fully appearing.
"Everything is fine Tom, truly. It's just my-"
"Alright my sugar plums, places!"
Tom frowned. Taika truly had the worst timing possible. He vowed to himself then and there that we was going to get to the bottom of this, that he was certain of.
The next time Tom saw you out of a scene was at the end of the day, when you were both heading towards the hair and makeup trailer.
There you were, leaning against the trailer door, probably complimenting the stylists for the umpteenth time today.
He barely managed to hear your "You both do outstanding work, I hope you know that" compliment, but smiled nonetheless. You truly were amazing.
As he began to walk up behind you to join your conversation, it took him all but a few seconds to figure out what had gotten you into your unhappy mood today.
A small little red patch--of what he was assuming was blood--on the back of your pants. Light bulbs went off in his head when he realised why you were feeling unwell today.
With a frown, he made his way over to you and hugged you from behind; achieving a giggle from you.
"Yes Tommy?"
He kissed your cheek and began whispering in your ear.
"Darling, don't be alarmed but you've leaked through your pants."
He felt you blanche and watched as your face drained of it's colour. You began struggling in his arms, trying to escape.
He continued whispering, "It's alright Darling. I'm going to give you my sweater. It should hopefully cover everything."
A subtle nod was all you offered. With that he began rubbing your arms.
"Darling, you're freezing." He quickly pulled off his sweater, "Please, put it on."
You gave him a watery smile and swiftly put it on. And what do you know, it was just oversized enough to cover everything.
Before he could blink, you had spun around and pulled him into a proper hug. Your hands wrapping tightly around his waist as his arms made their way around your shoulders.
"Thank you, Tommy."
He just smiled, nuzzled his nose into your hair and pulled you closer.
The both of you were too caught up in your own little bubble to see that Jeni and Abigail had their matchmaking smiles on...
A/N I’m so sorry this took so long for me to get out. I kind of neglected writing for the whole of October 😬
