Summary: you never thought that the person who saved you might be the famous artist Tom Hiddleston. And what you find in his house will completely amaze you.
"Help me! Help! " came a loud, slightly hoarse voice from your mouth, which so fiercely tried to shut up those who dared to attack you. It's so disgusting.
You never thought you'd be in this situation. The shittiest situation that could possibly happen. You wanted so badly to run away, but at the moment it was impossible.
To get into this situation, and even in an alley between houses, where it smelled of fucking urine and light, but strong alcohol.
Unfortunately, you didn't see his face, but you were sure that if you were a guy, he would immediately get a huge slap in the face and run away from you in horror, begging for mercy and wishing never to meet you again. But unfortunately, at the moment, you were a girl.
"Don't push it, or it'll get worse," a sugary and eerily slimy voice would mutter to you. You flinched, trying to pull away, to which the man who was holding you only grinned, you definitely heard that slippery grin when he thought about you sexually, and tried to hit him in a sore spot for men.
"Let me go, you fucking freak!"you screamed again, biting into his chubby palm that was so sweaty. The man behind you wasn't very big either. He was shorter than you, and fat! But somehow he was stronger than you.
At the moment, fear was pounding in your soul. You were afraid to think about what would happen next, but if you don't know how to escape, then you are definitely finished. This man wouldn't kill you, you were sure. However, what he wanted to do to you, and if it was rape, then he will definitely do it. And you will be left with an injury for the rest of your life.
But you were also angry. Why the fuck is this petty person attacking you and trying to use you in this way? You definitely didn't like it and you wanted to fight. And if you take into account how brisk you were, then this will definitely not be good for him.
"Shut up, sweet pussy, and let me do it. I swear we'll both enjoy it, " you could feel the cold sweat and perspiration running down your back, and a huge herd of goosebumps running down your spine.
"Get off me! Help me! Help!" you shouted, uttering this phrase with utter contempt. It sounded so rich and powerful that you might have thought you were taking revenge on him or reveling in defeating him while in a position of power.
But now it was the other way around.
You felt his greasy hand slide down your inner thigh and begin to unbutton the zipper and buttons of your blue jeans with quick movements. They were your favorites! And now you will probably never wear them again, because you will remember this incident.
"Hey!" Suddenly, a voice came from behind you. Your eyes widened in unusual surprise. Voice. It was a man's voice. Did someone hear you? Will someone save you? You will definitely thank this person forever!
Making an effort, you began to try to move both your arms and legs, trying to hit the man who was currently attacking you.
Suddenly, you heard clear footsteps and a loud voice that echoed off the walls of the harsh and gray houses.
"Let her go! I swear, otherwise you will not be well!" at the moment, you were just praying to all the gods you could think of, hoping that you would still be saved before you were raped and morally destroyed.
And suddenly, you felt the hands that had held you earlier release you from their captivity. You felt like you could finally breathe a free soul. You turned your head in the direction of the men, between whom there was a rather strong and contradictory sense of tension.
You knew that the best thing to do at this moment would be to run away and never walk through the dark alleys that connect one house to another, but you knew that your savior was worth thanking. Can I call you to the cafe at my own expense?
You didn't see his face. I only saw that he was rather thin, but of a strong build. He might have had some muscles, but you didn't think they were very big.
"And don't ever go near the girls again," your unknown but conscientious rescuer shouted, kicking one last time. It wasn't cruel, but he deserved it.
Still in shock, you stared at the mangled body of a subhuman who apparently had neither morals nor honor.
"Are you okay?" the savior's worried voice asked you. He began to draw closer to you, but still keeping a sufficient distance from you, knowing what you were going through just now, and that it was better not to disturb your confused thoughts.
You nodded, looking up and looking at the man. You opened your mouth slightly, feeling your hands shake. The pupils of his eyes widened.
Tom Hiddleston was standing right in front of you. Tom, fuck you, Hiddleston. One of the most famous artists of our time! God, you just couldn't say a word. And you didn't care that you were sexually harassed a few seconds ago. No, of course you won't ever forget it, but the good memories outweigh the bad ones, right?
He was charming: dark hair, slightly curled at the ends, which probably bounced funny if you touched it, those blue eyes...
"You're tired and you may not be feeling very well," he said in a warm tone at the moment, but the severity was still there. You were about to protest, and when you opened your mouth, you were interrupted by a man holding up his hands: "You need to rest. You can rest at my place and it's not up for discussion. I don't want you to meet another maniac," he chuckled slightly, at which you arched an eyebrow in a sarcastic way, but still nodded, sighing loudly.
I didn't really want to go to a stranger's house. What if he's some kind of maniac or something? However, this is not Tom Hiddleston! What could go wrong? You've been interested in his work for so long, even bought a reproduction of his painting, but then, the passion for his art disappeared and you calmed down your ardor.
You remembered being a fan of his once. Not that you know where he lives, because you thought it was already going far beyond fanaticism and you didn't need to do that. But you were definitely wondering where he gets his inspiration from.
"Okay, so be it, you talked me into it..."
Even as you spoke, Mr. Hiddleston's eyes widened and he held out his hand, smiling warmly.
"I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself. I'm Tom Hiddleston, " you gave him your hand and he just squeezed it harder. "When we get to my place, don't worry if you see dirty floors, paint stains, or something like that..."
"I know who you are, Mr. Hiddleston," you smiled back, feeling the goose bumps on your back. He frowned, putting his hands on his hips.
"So you know who I am? Well, it's not interesting! " he exclaimed, as if he were a child who had been misjudged. You smiled broadly. After what happened to you, smiles can definitely help you.
You never thought that the artist's house would be so entertaining. No, you definitely did not like the dirt and dust that lay right at the entrance, but it rather evoked the atmosphere that a creative person lives here.
"I like your house, Thomas," you said, looking down the hallway that led to the stairs. It was large enough to connect many rooms together, as well as apparently the kitchen. It smelled of paint and the tart smell of whiskey. The smell was not particularly pleasant, but it did not cause disgust. The walls were decorated with snow-white wallpaper, on which hung various kinds of paintings. You weren't surprised when you noticed that next to the wardrobe where you hung your jacket, there was a painting by Van Gogh called "Les Alyscamps" that Vincent had painted when he arrived in Arles. You liked Van Gogh the most, because you thought he was a very extraordinary person. But did Thomas look up to him?
"Les Alyscamps..." you drawled, tucking your hair behind your ear. "I didn't think anyone knew about this painting."
"Yes," came a ragged breath from behind you. Thomas must have just taken off his shoes. "I love Van Gogh. He really has a lot of underrated paintings, but for some reason everyone only notices "Starry Night" or " Wheatfield with Crows."
You smiled slightly and turned on your toes to face Thomas, who was currently leaning against the wall with his head thrown up, looking up at the ceiling with an unseeing gaze.
Apparently noticing that you were looking at him, he lowered his head, grinning slightly.
"Yes, come on. I'll have black with milk. And sugar, if you have it, " you immediately agreed. Hot tea wouldn't hurt after all the things that had happened tonight. And you should also recover from the shock of meeting such a person.
"Hey, I get it, but don't get cocky, okay?" You saw Thomas nod his head and head for the room to your left. "If you want to rest, then go to the living room!" Tom shouted at you that you only nodded to yourself, but quickly realized what you needed, and asked the question, only raising your voice slightly, knowing that you and Thomas were alone in the house.
"On the second floor, on the right," you heard an immediate response, and you retreated to the stairs with quick movements, or rather with quick steps. It was covered with a blue carpet and creaked slightly. How long has Thomas lived here? There were pictures on the wall all the way up the stairs.
You squinted as you got up to the second floor: is this his painting or something? I shook my head, and you looked at the small corridor that was narrow and only in length did not bother yourself. Your eyes darted to the right side. You let out a sad sigh. There are two doors here...
Reluctantly, was there something to warn you about?
Quickly brains and figuring that a person is unlikely to make a bathroom right next to the stairs? So most likely it was the second in a row.
You dreamed of walking down the hall at a brisk pace, then stopping at the door. It wasn't much different from the other doors. The same white, except that it was slightly splattered with paint. Pressing down on the dark brown handle, you entered the room.
Your eyes immediately widened, and your heart started pounding in your head. It was a room. Thomas ' room. And what you saw clearly impressed you. It seems that going to the toilet is worth letting go.
After checking to see if Thomas was around, you looked around, closing the weightless door, then swallowed. The first thing that caught your eye was you. What's it? What? At the moment, your zgoyad was only focused on the paintings. In the pictures that depict you.
You opened your mouth, feeling yourself tremble slightly in surprise. My hands began to shake and become sweaty.
Why are you depicted in Thomas ' paintings? Did Mr. Tom Hiddleston know about her? Is he much more dangerous than the man you met today, and every memory of him was accompanied by a herd of goosebumps that sent you a body. Was he following you?" Stalked him?
At the moment, your mind was focused only on the pictures. It was scary to be with such a person who does not hesitate to draw pictures with you: here you are like a nymph, a fairy, a goddess of the night with a wolf. And a couple of pictures of you standing naked and being hugged by some unknown man. Is this Tom by any chance?
"I forgot whether you should add sugar to your tea or not..."
He didn't think he would meet his love tonight. It was such a surprise and a shock. And in the end, he was a hero for saving a girl from being raped.
The girl. If it was just a girl, not the girl who inspired him. That she had helped him get up from his knees and overcome the thought of taking his own life and going to the afterlife. Leave ugly, through cuts.
So no one has ever left beautifully. Usually, death from going too far to cut your wrists was very dirty, and they would find you in the bathroom.
Then... He didn't even remember how long ago it had been? At the time, Thomas had thought only of killing himself. Leave like you don't leave. Obsessive thoughts had often haunted him before. Suicide would have been the most logical end of his life. Dying of old age will be painful. It's better to just commit suicide.
Although Thomas had always admitted to himself that he couldn't do it. He just doesn't have the willpower. But the antidepressants and the morphine he was taking were definitely helping him keep his cool.
But then, one day, when he had to leave the house and go to get some paint, he saw you. So beautiful... So innocent... So brilliant and joyful that she doesn't notice the evil in the world... I wish he could be like that.
Obsessive thoughts haunted him. It was both pleasant to think about it, because he was finally going to the next world, to the next world. But on the other hand, it would be painful for him to do such a thing. Tension reigned in his mind, combining all his thoughts into one.
"Excuse me, please!" Immediately, a loud and sonorous childish voice shouted in front of him. Thomas looked up as he saw the most beautiful girl in the world standing in front of him, trying to get some brushes from the top shelf. "But can you help me get them?"
Hiddleston stood by the shelves and stared wide-eyed at the girl in front of him. How beautiful she was! His artist's eye simply couldn't help but catch on to the small details. At the moment, his brain was bursting with the metaphors and comparisons that were going on in his head.
"Yes, yes, of course," Thomas seemed to come to his senses, blinking his eyes at a rapid pace.
And the most annoying thing about it was that he didn't even ask the girl on her behalf. He just stood for a couple of minutes near the empty shelves, as if he had forgotten that he wanted to buy paint and looked into the distance.
It's a good thing he followed you back then. I walked them to the bus stop, but I kept them in the shadows. A beautiful girl with an incredible voice and most likely an interesting view of the world. His thoughts of committing suicide immediately drifted away from him.
Back then, he was only interested in who you were. The inspiration that was sent by God? Or maybe Tom has finally found a muse.
And at this moment, he was standing by the door, looking intently at you and the way you were looking at the paintings that he dedicated to you. Such wonderful pictures turned out. He was so eager to draw you holo from life. You would pose for him, and he, enjoying you, would comment on your body with gentle words.
He didn't think you'd look in this room, because this is where he kept your paintings, since the living room was already littered with other paintings, and he hardly ever comes in here, so why not keep them here. Well, Thomas only comes in here to look at you once in a while.
He never thought that he would be able to pick up the brush again and start drawing. But apparently God was very merciful that day, to give him such a lovely muse.
Thomas didn't think about what would happen when he was found dead in his house. Maybe people would warm up a little bit, and later they would forget. It's quickly forgotten. The fact that he was a famous artist — people will remember, but the fact that he died in this way-no. Who cares?
He tried to fight it then. He even went to a psychologist a couple of times for a session, but she did not give him anything. No explanation, just suggested that I remember how it started.
In after all, and really with what? At what point did he decide to bring the judgment on himself? When did the inspiration disappear? When did the girl leave? Or because of what? It was so long ago that he could probably have completely erased those memories from himself.
"What is it, Thomas?" the most gentle and beautiful voice was heard, encouraging Hiddleston, and he was distracted from his thoughts, looking at you.
He would like to capture this moment. The moment when you, very ill, tense and tearful, lie in the middle of the room, trying to find an explanation.
And with such a demanding voice!
"Honey, I can explain everything..." I tried to reach you, starting with a calm voice, Thomas, but all I saw was that your eye twitched and you noticed that he had closed the door. "You know, you were my muse. My inspiration. The man who kept me alive and didn't kill myself. You are the person I love, " Thomas said softly, smiling a gentle smile, but still looking extremely tense in his eyes.
He saw your confused look. Your red eyes that looked at him with an extremely uncomprehending look. Your jaw was trembling slightly and your hair, whose process, as well as your eyes, he liked to draw, were tangled and a little wet. Apparently from tension. But no, his beloved can not strain.
"Love? What? What kind of love?" he could hear how hard it was for you to say these words and tried to be very calm in his face. Thomas watched as your face turned red from the strain. His breathing, he could feel it, was labored. "This is not love, Thomas!"
The man frowned, feeling his brows draw together. He sighed heavily. Does his beloved not understand all his love for you? Why doesn't she want to understand that? Understand how much he adores and cherishes you?
"Honey, you must be wrong. I understand that what you've been through today is clearly troubling you..."
"Were you following me?" Before he could finish, a voice called out, interrupting a long monologue about love.
"I took care of you. You inspired me, my dear!" starting to get closer to you, Thomas said sweetly to you, not holding back and sending you a tender look. "You saved me, honey..."
