One shot: The strength of our love Plus sized reader x Tom Hiddleston

Requested by anonymous: Hi, could I get a plus size reader x Tom Hiddleston? One about a girl who is a nurse and is secretly dating Tom but can’t tell her family about it because of the culture trouble and war between them ( Celtic and English). Which leads to fights and trouble with everyone. But it ends happily in Tom and reader?

 A/N  Quick summary of what happened between the Celtic and English: England invaded Ireland and held religious wars (between Protestants and Catholics) against each other for decades, where many people died. In order to somehow bring peace amongst the people, Ireland had to sell the north of the country to England. Because of the conflicts a lot of Irish and English people don’t get along till this day

Aye= Yes

Acushla= Darling

  “Don’t forget it’s Nina’s tomorrow”, my colleague reminded me as the two of us were walking out of the hospital. “Aye, thanks for reminding me”, I thanked her before she walked across the street to the bus stop. I waited until she hopped on and gave me one last wave before I quickly walked towards the parking lot. The black Mercedes already waiting for me.

 I kept glancing side to side to make sure that no one would see me before I quickly hopped into the passenger’s seat. “Hi acushla”, I greeted Tom before giving him a quick peck. “Darling”, he greeted back. He quickly pulled out of the hospital’s parking lot and drove towards his house.

 “So how was your shift?”, he asked me as he reached his hand over and places it on my thigh and gave it a reassuring squeeze. I smiled at the sweet gesture, “It was fine, I can’t forget to wish Nina a happy birthday tomorrow or else she’ll bitch about it for weeks”, I informed him while rolling my eyes. Tom chuckled and continued to talk about our day until we arrived at the gates of our house. He punched the code in and waited until the gates opened. Once they did, he pulled into the drive way and checked if there we’re no paparazzis around.

 “Okay let’s go”, he spoke, the two of us rushed out of his car and into the house. Once we we’re in inside the living room, Tom sighed and ran his hand trough his hair with a frown on his face. “Eh what’s wrong?”, I asked concerned. Tom sighted and shrugged his shoulders. “Just sick and tired of the hiding and the constantly making sure that no one is following us”, Tom mumbled.

 I sighed and bit my lip. Tom and I had to sneak around with our relationship due to the fact that I’m Irish and he’s an Englishman. Our countries didn’t have a peaceful history together. People are still mad about what happened decades ago. My parents were one of those people. That was the main reason why Tom and I were forced to hide our relationship. If they would find out that my boyfriend is English, they would never approve it, hell they would do anything in their power to keep us apart.

 “Tom ya know our situation”, I sighed and walked over to him, wanting to embrace him in my arms. But he stepped away and walked past me into the kitchen. “Please don’t let us fight over this again!”, I begged him as I followed him into the kitchen. “Well I’m bloody sick of! And I don’t know how long I can continue hide this! Hide us!”, he yelled while throwing our hands in the air, the tension rising in the air. “We’ve discussed this already Tom, why do you keep bringing this up?”, I yelled just as loud as he did. He scoffed, “Because I don’t want to hide our love forever!”.

 We fought the rest of the evening…We went to bed mad at each other, something we had promised each other not to do. When the morning came, we both woke up with a thick tension between us. We ignored each other and got ready for the day, not looking at each other nor talking to each other, but I was hurting from the inside. I hated it when we fought. I couldn’t stand it any longer when Tom walked passed me in the kitchen not making any effort in kissing me goodbye before he would leave for work. “Okay”, I started speaking. “I don’t want us to fight anymore so if you want to we can bring both of our parents here and tell them about us”, I finished hoping to get Tom’s attention.

 He immediately stopped and turned around, a pained look on his face. “I’m so sorry for yesterday my love, I was frustrated and let it out on you”, he confessed before walking over to me and engulfing me in his strong arms. I sighed, having missed his touch so much in the last twenty four hours. I lifted my head and puckered my lips, silently asking him for a kiss. Tom smiled and pressed his soft lips against mine. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the feelings our lips pressed against each other.

 Tom pulled away and smiled at me, “Yes I would love that my dear, let’s let them come tonight announce them the news, and if everything goes well we can all go out to dinner”, he proposed to which I nodded my head. We pulled away from each other and took our phones out, texting our parent’s our address and telling them to come over at seven pm.

 “Let’s hope for the best”, Tom mumbled while he leaned in and gave me one last sweet peck before he left for work. I finished my coffee and minutes later I closed the door to our house and walked over to my car, started the engine and drove off to the hospital. I kept worrying of what would happen tonight, which made it hard for me to concentrate on work. “Okay Mr. Lenner, my shift is over now, so if you need anything my colleague Nina will help you alright?”, I asked Mr. Lenner who nodded his head. “Okay goodbye”, I waved before leaving his room.

 “Hey Nina, happy birthday”, I wished her while I gave her three kisses on the cheek. She grinned and thanked me. “Oh and I gave Mr. Lenner something against the pain so should be able to sleep through the night”, I informed her before giving her the clipboard with Mr. Lenner’s latest health reports, my notes on his medication treatment and the upcoming lab tests.

Nina thanked me she walked into Mr. Lenners room. I sighed heavily as I felt a sickening feeling in my stomach, knowing what would be waiting home for me. I quickly rushed into the lockers room and changed out of my uniform. I lifted my purse and walked out of the lockers room and out of the hospital.

 My phone buzzed in my hand as I made my way to the car. “They’re in the drive way hurry darling xox Tom” said the text message. I replied to Tom saying that I was on my way home. I climbed into my car and pulled out of the hospitals parking lot and drove home, feeling so nervous.

 Once I arrived in front out the gates, I quickly punched the code in before the gates opened and I pulled into our drive way, where the cars of Tom’s and mine parents were parked as they stood in front of our doorstep. I quickly shut the engine off and hopped out of my car. “Ma, pa”, I greeted while I jogged over to them and hugged them both. “Hey acushla, what are we doing at this big house?”, ma asked me confused while eyeing Tom suspiciously.

 “Let’s all get inside and we’ll clear everything up���, Tom interrupted while his parents stood behind him. We opened the door and let them all settle in the living room. “So we asked you to come here because Y/n and I are a couple”, Tom announced nervously, while we stood in front of them . My parents gasped out loud and gave me a disappointed look, making me want to disappear in that moment.

 “Y/n how could you get involved with an Englishman?’”, ma asked me while she shook her head. “Excuse me?”, Tom’s mother spoke up while glaring at my ma. Ma scoffed and rolled her eyes. “You heard me what is my daughter doing with a man whose ancestors invaded our country and made us sell them a part of it in order to stop the murders?”, ma spat. “Y/n I’m so disappointed”, she scolded at me.

 My heart painfully clenched in my chest as I felt tears brim my eyes. Tom’s parents were shocked at my ma’s outburst. Clearly they weren’t expecting to be dragged for something that happened decades ago. “Madame please, we called you here because Y/n and I are in a serious relationship. We all know what happened between our countries and yes some people still don’t get along but we didn’t choose to fall in love…It happened to me. But she was so ashamed of what you would say that we chose to hide our relationship, not wanting to create any drama but we can’t keep on going like this. I see a clear future with her. But we want you all involved in it too”, Tom spoke.

 “The strength of our love made us forgive one another of what happened to our countries and made us stronger because we chose love over hate”, Tom finished as he reached over and held my hand. My mother was speechless for a minute, before she sighed and slowly nodded her head. “I deeply apologize for my behavior”, ma spoke as she turned to Tom’s parents.

 “It’s okay we fully understand, and we can’t change the past but we can try to better the future”, Tom’s mother spoke as our ma’s smiled at each other and our pa’s nodded at each other.

 I smiled as I squeezed Tom’s hand and leaned in for a kiss, feeling so much relieve run through my body. Tom pulled away, smiling at me lovingly before turning towards our parents, “So shall we all go to dinner and catch up?”, he asked excitedly.

Our parents nodded their heads as they stood up. They all came towards us and we all hugged each other, Tom’s parent’s introducing themselves again to me as my parents did the same to Tom. Our ma’s walked towards the front door while Tom’s pa held the door open for everyone. “I love you so much Y/n”, Tom spoke as he walked hand in hand out of our house, “I love you too Tom”, I said.
