Hi! I have to confess, I fell. FELL IN LOVE. Those TikTok edits hello? 😭 So today I've watched g.i. joe and.... Yeah it's ... Not a bad movie... Not good either tho 😭 but storm shadow guysss

Anyways this is probably ooc but listen. Its the TikTok editors fault ok.

- Nobody will ever be able to touch a hair on your head, thanks to him.

- It'll be very hard for him to accept that you have male friends. He's a very jealous man, but he wont speak his jealousy out loud. You can tell when he's jealous though. He gets pouty. It'd be cute if he wasn't intimidating your friends.

- After a lot of reassurance, he promises he won't kill them. That doesn't mean he'll stop being jealous though. Quite the opposite, actually.

- Gentleman to the core. Even if you're a fighter yourself, he'll treat you with respect- holding the door, pulling your chair, bringing you flowers,... You can see the genuine effort in his eyes whenever he does these gestures. It's refreshing after a myriad of failed relationships. He's a romantic at heart.

- As a ninja and fighter, he'd struggle with sleeping around people. It'd take a great deal of trust for him to fall asleep next to you. Don't take it the wrong way, though. He wishes he could give you the same amount of trust you have given him. You'll just have to give him a bit more time.

- Once it happens, though it's like night and day change. He goes from a straight and taut as a plank cuddle buddy who puts his arm around you almost robotically to a cobra snake curling around its prey. Just a lot more lovable cobra snake.

- Don't worry, though, if you wake up he's soon to follow, no matter the occasion.

- Need to pee, but there's a muscular 5'8" man hugging you to death in your bed? Don't worry! Move around a bit, and he's up in a jiffy... Seriously though, he's a very light sleeper.

- After dealing with that issue of yours, you can expect to go back to your toasty little heaven with your man.

- Trust is a big deal to him. Once he trusts you, he's willing to do anything for you. And expects the same from you. Don't break it, he sure never will.

- If you're also a fighter like him, expect to be training with him. Even if you're not, you'll still end up training with him. He wants to be sure that in the rare moments he can't be with you, you can defend yourself.

- Once you gain his trust, your relationship escalates quickly. Not only is he able to sleep around you, but he also wants to move in with you. He's dedicated to everything he does and that dedication is now extended to your relationship. He's not far from considering marriage either.

- He knows that this is not how relationships typically progress, and he's aware that you're not ready to move at his pace. But he's willing to wait. Once you gain his trust beyond simple attraction, you've gained a partner for life.

Y'all there's so little tommy content 😭 I'm suffering fr. Anyways let me attempt to fix that~ with the bits and snippets

It's deep into the night. The light of the moon lights up your room as you and Tommy sleep. You both like to cuddle during the night, and today is no exception. Tommy's arms are wrapped tightly around your waist as you're slotted against each other, front to back. Tightly grasping onto each other in lovers embrace.

Tommy stirs softly as he feels something cold and wet spreading and trickling down his thigh. His sleep dazed mind can't figure out what's going on. Tommy props himself up on one hand and looks at you, holding his other arm captive under your head. He pushes the covers away to investigate the wetness.

Tommy stills as he sees blood.

His usually level-headed mind goes into panic. Were you injured from today's mission and didn't tell him? Were you hurting the whole time? Didn't you trust him? He thought that his confession would make you both even closer to each other. He himself trusted you with his life.

Tommy's thoughts spiralled. He decided to investigate further.

Your front was clear of blood... And then it clicked. You must be on your period! Tommy wanted to punch himself for not realizing sooner and letting his mind come up with senseless scenarios. You both loved each other, trusted each other. You've both accepted each other's flaws.

Gently, he shakes your shoulder. Trying to wake you up. But he knew you're a deep sleeper. Eventually he managed to wake you though.

You, still in a daze from the sleep, turned around with the intention of going back to its embrace. Tommy didn't let you though. He took you into his arms and carried you into the bathroom.

Your head lolled to lay against his chest. The beat of his heart trying to lull you back to the blissful sleep again. He set you down but still held you, he knew you're still tol sleepy to stand on your own. Tommy your cheek softly. His lips warm against it.

"I'll bring you clothes if you want to shower?" He murmured into your ear as your face now showed your confusion. "You're bleeding, love."

It takes a bit to register in your mind what he means, but once it clicked and your senses started waking up too, you felt the dampness.

Your cheek turning rosy as he walked out of the bathroom to change the bedsheets. By logic you knew this was normal, and as your partner who you also shared an apartment with he was bound to be aware about your periods at some point. But you still couldn't help but feel ashamed. Perhaps it was something the society has ingrained into all women.

He did as he said and brought you new underwear and his shirt. He didn't bring any pants as you didn't like sleeping in them but now felt like you needed them.

You both laid down on the bed again. Both still tired from the mission and now this little thing. You tried to lay little further from Tommy. He was quick to notice though.

"Why are you so far away?" He wasn't going to let you stray from him. Tommy got tired of awaiting your answer as he saw you couldnt make out your words. You both weren't native English speakers so he understood your struggles with expressing yourself. "Do you not want to...cuddle with me? Did I offend you?"

"No, no you didn't offend me, Tommy. I just... Don't want you to feel disgusted."

"My love, I've grown up around many women, and there's nothing to be ashamed of. It's a natural part of who you are. Didn't I tell you I love all of you? It's not something you can control, nor should you have to." The softness of his voice made your heart swoon.

Yeah so I'm down bad for this man😔

- Tommy almost suffered a heart attack when you passed out in his arms for blood loss. He rushed you to the hospital as fast as he could, his heart beating so hard he thought it would break out of his ribcage. After all you- his heart, home, lover, future wife,... Was currently rushed into emergency surgery.

- His mind came up with a haphazard excuse of what happened to the staff that asked. He couldn't exactly tell them about the mission you were on... Their scrutinizing faces didn't go unnoticed by Tommy, but his mind was stuck on replaying tonight's events.

- Once you come out of the surgery and the doctor allows him to visit you, he leave your side.

- Tommy is very caring. He'll stay in the hospital with you for as long as you're there, sleeping in the uncomfortable hospital chair that makes his back hurt.

- Holds your hand the whole time!! So your unconscious knows you're not alone.

- It gets to a point where he refuses to go home because you're his home. After he left the clan, you were one of the only people that stood by him. You were his biggest supporter, and he was yours. Tommy's loyalty is unmatched, and he won't ever leave you in an untrustful environment alone.

- That's right, he doesn't trust that the hospital is exactly safe. He has lot of enemies that would like to exploit a moment of weakness. His or peoples close to him. There's no better way to ensure your safety than to be with you.

- He will pay for a private room. This is not up to debate. He wants you to be as comfortable as possible when injured.

- Your healing doesn't end with the day you get discharged though. No, Tommy makes sure that you're following ALL of the doctor's orders. No slacking. Actually all slacking. Expect to be kept in bed for another week or so, maybe more.

- That also means no exercise. Absolutely none. Light walks maybe... Under his supervision, of course.

- Don't even try to make any negative comments on your looks after being cooped up in bed for weeks. Tommy loves you, and your still the most beautiful woman he's ever met.

- Lots of hand, forehead and cheek kisses! The whole time! Tommy is very affectionate. This incident will just exacerbate his affections.

- Besides, you almost died. Tommy will be shaken from than for a long time. So he doesn't care what you look like or that you haven't showered for a week. He loves you and never wants to go through that again.

- The scar that the wound leaves behind is a reminder to Tommy. A reminder to never take you for granted. A reminder that everyday is a gift. A reminder to appreciate you everyday. A reminder of the day he almost lost you forever.

- There won't be a day where he won't kiss it.

- Tommy says he doesn't have nightmares, but the way he squeezes you at night and murmurs your name makes you think otherwise. He'll never admit it when you question him.

- His protectiveness gets amped up. You need to pee at night? He's going with you. What if somebody sneaked into your apartment? Yeah, no way you're going alone.

- If you tell him to back off, he's going to dial down on his overprotectiveness. He really just wants to help you as much as he can when you're still healing and also to calm his wandering thoughts.

- Altogether, this whole ordeal made him more clingy, especially during bedtime when there's time for mind to wander.
