-Chapter 11-

The one with a very special sleepover

 The next week at work was like any other before you met him. Until late Friday. You were playing a game with Dylan and a friend of him as you got called by Clara. “(Y/N) could you please come in the hall for a minute!” Something in her voice told you it was urgent. You excused yourself to Dylan and James and went into the hall. Sarah’s husband was standing there. Agitated.

 “Hello (Y/N) I…I need your help!” You saw he was nervous.

“Sure, how can I help you?”

“It´s Sarah, she was in an accident and I am needed at the hospital. They said it´s nothing very serious, but…it is a 2h drive. She was out on a job when she got injured. I don´t know all the details yet.” You listen and nod understanding why he had to be with her.

“Sarah´s parents are out of town, Toms away. I don´t have anybody who could look after Dylan. I know it is not your job and I ask a lot of you, but I don´t know what else to do. I will probably be there all night. Dylan get´s scared so fast.. I…” His voice breaks a little.

You don´t think twice about what to say.

“Don´t worry, do you have his stuff with you. I will take care of him and we´ll have a slumber party at my place. You go take care of your wife, and please tell her I´m very sorry something happened to her!” Dylan´s Dad seemed relieved.

“Yes, I´ve packed a bag.”

“Ok…then try to calm down and go tell Dylan he will stay with me tonight. I will handle the rest from there.” “Thank you so much. You really are an Angel, like Sarah said!”

 Soon you sit in the tube, with Dylan and his bag on your lap. He was a bit taken aback at first, but his Dad and you reassured him that everything would be fine and he just had a sleep over like with Uncle Tom sometimes. That calmed Dylan enough to get used to the idea.

“You know what?! When we are home, we´ll write Uncle Tom and send him a picture of you eating popcorn watching a movie!”

“Oh yes please.” Dylan said and grinned a little. Uncle Tom likes Popcorn, he will be sooo jealous!”

 An hour later, Dylan was fed and in his pyjamas on your couch. The Dschungle Book was playing of a DVD and he had a bowl of Popcorn in his lap. His gorilla by his side.

You took a picture and captioned it with

<Dylan and his hairy friend do like my popcorn!

 Some 30 minutes later Tom replied

>I heard what happened. Thank you for helping out and taking care of Dylan. I wish I could be there now. Sarah seems to have a fractured leg and is in the operating room as we speak. But it´s seems to be nothing major. How´s Dylan coping? He seems fine in the picture.

 You sit next to Dylan and take a look.

<He´s doing ok. I´m glad Sarah isn´t hurt badly. I showed him your drawings and Dylan liked them. Not the girly ones, but the manly gorillas

 >hehe, yes, he doesn´t even like that girly stuff. I know. Would it be ok with you if I´d facetime you later? I want to talk to him and say good night before he goes to bed.

 <Anytime you want. I think it would be good for him to see your face.

 Dylan´s watching the movie and singing along to the songs. Cuddling up to you.

“You are my friend, you know? I like you…you are ok for a girl” he said sometime in between.

You couldn´t help but laugh. The movie soon came to an end and you prepared him for bed.

“I´ve got a surprise for you!” You said as Dylan had cuddled in. You had texted Tom that it was bedtime now and he wasted no Time calling you on your tablet. The screen was bigger.

Dylan´s face lit up

 “Hey buddy!” Tom said smiling.

“UNCLE TOM!!!” Dylan almost jumped out of bed. You propped the tablet up on a pillow in front of Dylan. “Uncle Tom. I´m having a sleep over. I watched a movie and ate popcorn. (Y/N) is my friend now, she is ok for a girl!” he talked fast and matter of fact. Tom laughed.

“Yes, she is. Where is she now Dylan? I want to say hello to her too.” You lean in a little.

Dylan almost instantly cuddling up to you.

“Hello darling.” He smiled at you using the endearment he only started to use a little while ago.

Just in that moment you realized he was in bed too. Leaning against his bedframe. Without a shirt and the blanket only half covering him. He was clean-shaven and his hair was shorter now then the last time you´d seen him. But he looked gorgeous nonetheless.

“Hi Tom.” You smiled back at him. Hoping he wouldn’t see the blush on your face.

Suddenly it felt 20 degrees warmer than before.  

 Dylan took up his attention again. They both talked a for a bit until Dylan yawned.

“I need a bedtime story Uncle Tom! Pleeeeaaaaaseee.” You laughed quietly and started to switch of the big light in favour for a softer nightlamp. Tom could see the both of you anyhow.

 Without a second to think about it Tom cleared his throat and his voice drooped into a soothing tone. “Alright buddy, cuddle up and close your eyes!” Dylan did as told and yawned again.

Tom began to tell a story with a quiet and oh so soothing voice. You relaxed yourself listening to him and stroked Dylan´s hair. It took him probably 5 minutes before Dylan passed out and was fast asleep.

 You smiled at him and then at Tom who was whispering “Is he asleep already?” You nod and take the tablet into your hands. Sensing Tom wasn´t about to sign off directly you tiptoe out of the bedroom into your Livingroom and take a seat in your armchair. The reading lamp giving a soft glow to light the room.

 “You´ve got a nice home.” Tom commented and grinned.

“Good that Loki isn´t here, he would probably be jealous. Kneeling before Dylan first, making him popcorn and stroking his hair. A God could get insecure over that!”

You laugh as quiet as possible and tilt your head.

“Yeah, what’s up with him not being there? You got rid of him today?”

Tom had a mischievous grin on his face.

“For the day at least. I do have a night shoot today.”

“Ahh, hence you being still in bed.”

 You try to focus on his face. His half-bared chest was doing things to your heartrate that were treacherous. He arranged himself more comfortably and you could see a tiny bit of his hotel room. Your notebook sitting on the bedside table made you smile.

 “It´s so nice to see your face again.” He said quietly and smiles a handsome smile just for you.

The air around you seemed to crack. There was that tension again.

The tension you felt as the both of you had danced together.

 “Loki wasn´t completely wrong with his request for pictures, you know.” And just like that it was all fine again. He made it fun. Yes, it really was easy to talk to him. He made you feel comfortable even with him being half naked.

 “Oh, I´ve got an idea. Can you record this conversation on your tablet?”

You are a bit stunned but answered.

“Yes, I can do that. Why?”

 Tom just smirked very, very sexy.

“Lean back darling, you´re in for a treat!”
