All the little beautiful things you notice Tom does~
• When he packs for his trips he rolls everything up instead of folding because he thinks it saves space
• If he’s eating mashed potato and peas in a meal he always mixes the peas in with the mashed potato because he can’t stand them, so he finds them easier to eat that way
• The way he wiggles his nose side to side when he’s bored
• He’ll always sort of wrap his fingers around your elbow when you’re laying against him on the couch, drawing circles with his index finger
• The way he puts gel in his hair and combs it through. You can just see the focus on his face.
• When he’s thinking about something, he always scratches the back of his ear
• The brief moment just before he wakes up properly where he puts his arm out to touch you. It’s his little ‘good morning’. He does it every day. So if you’ve gotten up early for whatever reason he’ll call and ask you where you are and if you’re okay.
• Every now and then he’ll whip out his guitar and ask you “any requests my darlin?”
• He puts lemon in his water now because “everyone does it love”
• He always keeps a teaspoon in his tea because he just loves stirring it, he says it keep his mind occupied
• When he’s just got out of the shower, with a clean tshirt and clean sweatpants on, he always leaves his hair a little bit damp and you love that so much
• Every morning, when he puts his chain on, he tells you to kiss it because it gives him luck apparently
• He gets you to keep a lint roller in your handbag because he likes to keep his jeans clean
• The way he kisses your temples when you hug him
• If you have a bath together, every now and then he asks if he can lay back on you instead of you on him.
• The little head nudge he does on your shoulder when he wants your attention
• He brings you a coffee and an apple every morning. It’s your little tradition.
• The way he closes his eyes for a second when you put your hand on the back of his neck
• On your drives together he’ll put your window up if he even sees you shiver just a little
• The little sleepy hold of his chest he does when he starts drifting to sleep on the couch
• He’s always humming little tunes in the mornings
• If you’re laying in his lap, and you’ve had a long day, he strokes your nose with his thumb, lulling you to sleep
• He sometimes twists your hair around his fingers, even doing little braids, and you find it so soothing.
• He always makes sure you eat before he does, he sees that as very gentlemanly
• “Your heart is my favourite thing.”
• The big grin he gives you when you show him how you’ve done your makeup. He loves it when you’re feeling confident.
• The respect he has for your parents
• He’ll always fluff your pillow for you before you get into bed
• The way he lingers around your neck when he’s kissing it just so he can smell your perfume
• If you’re getting changed, he’ll sit on the bed, admiring you, taking you all in
• The knee squeezes he gives you when you’re upset, and holding your head against his chest
• Kissing your eyelids in the morning, to wake you up
• And the little wink he gives you when he closes the apartment door, every time he leaves to work for the next few months, the last little beautiful gesture you see for a while
