If Today Was Your Last Day

I arrived at the end of my street after taking Megan to school. She was in a much happier mood after finding out that Tom was her dad. He’s all she’s talked about this morning, which I’m glad about, I mean, she wasn’t fretting about the other kids at her school like she normally does, and I certainly wasn’t complaining about that.

I looked up from staring at the gravelled ground to see a familiar car sat outside my house with a familiar man drumming his fingers on the steering wheel. I couldn’t help but let a smile sit on my face as I reached my driveway, taking out my house keys from my trouser pocket to open the front door.

“Good morning,” he said from behind me, waiting for me to unlock the house door.

“Morning to you too, young man,” I giggled, stepping into the house and placing my keys onto the hook beside my car keys. “What brings you over this early in the morning?”

“I wanted to see you before you set off for work,” he shrugged. I knew there was more to it than that.

“I don’t start work till 11.00am. What’s the other reason?” I asked him, placing Megan’s bowl in the dishwasher and grabbed a cloth to clean the table. She always seems leave a mess on the table.

“Okay. I thought I should show you this,” Tom placed a music magazine on the table. I walked over to the table to see “Tom Kaulitz Dating? More info on page 17,” written in big, bold letters. “Jost told me I should probably show you,” ignoring Tom’s comment, I quickly flipped the magazine to page 17 to see pictures of Tom and I in the restaurant. One of us just talking and another from when I had intertwined our fingers together. The third picture was of us standing outside the restaurant and the final one of Tom holding my hand before we ran away from the crowd of fans and paparazzi. Below the pictures was text which read;

Tom Kaulitz was seen yesterday at 5.00pm in the local Pizza Express with a young lady. They seemed to be pretty close. Now, some of us may be thinking “Tom has found yet another girl to date and hurt?” But oh no. You are completely wrong. Sources say that this is a girl from Tom’s past. Ebony Burnes. You remember her from 6 years ago, right?

She dated Tom for about two months until Tom cheated on her with a random girl he found at a club, Ebony soon disappearing from the scene. There were rumours that Ebony was pregnant with Tom’s baby, but whether that’s true or not, we don’t know. There are no pictures of Ebony since the breakup between her and Tom.

I looked up at Tom and said, “I don’t particularly want Megan in the spotlight right now,” before looking back down at the article to carry on reading.

But, 6 years later, it appears that Ebony is back on the scene. There has been a couple of times where she was seen with Tom at the hairdressers she works at, the first time was because she did Bill’s hair, obviously Tom would be with him. This may have been the reason why they saw each other again, but if Tom cheated on her, then he didn’t care about, and if he didn’t care about her, then why would he want to see her again?

Harsh.

Tom and Bill were seen at a funfair with a little girl too. Reports say that she looked a lot like Tom and Bill. This is something that makes us believe that yes, Tom is in fact a dad and it could be Ebony’s child, meaning the rumours are true.

“Oh. Well Megan’s in the spotlight,” I mumbled, not once taking my eyes off the magazine article.

The last place that Ebony was seen was at a restaurant last night with Tom. It looked as if they were to be having a date. As you can see in one of the pictures, they have their fingers intertwined, and outside the restaurant, they are holding hands before they ran from the paparazzi and fans.

Did Ebony come running back to Tom, who had his arms wide open for her? We all could tell that he was head over heels for her, which I’m sure she was aware of. Has Tom decided to see her again because his sex life is deprived? Or is it just a fling that won’t last any longer than a couple of weeks? Or, is Ebony just using him? Does she miss the fame she once had? I guess we’ll never know till they confront themselves on their own.

After Tom’s had enough with Ebony, is Melanie going to come back into the picture? I guess we’ll just have to see, because with Tom Kaulitz, no one can ever predict his next move.

“Melanie’s a nice name,” was all I could come out with, my eyes still glued to the article. It was out that quick?

“Melanie? Who?”

“Your ex-girlfriend. After me,” Tom’s eyes widened.

“Schieße. I think I was calling her Melody at the end of our relationship,” I couldn’t help but laugh. Did he really care about her so much that he forgot what her actual name was? That makes me feel so special.

“So what do you think about the article?” Tom asked, leaning his arms on the table and looking up at me.

“It’s a load of bollocks, to be honest with you Tom. I didn’t come running back to you. You didn’t come back for sex and it’s not deprived... is it?” Tom shook his head, “This isn’t a fling because we’re not even together. I’m not using you. I never dated you for the fame in the first place. I dated you because I loved you. Eugh. The media pisses me off so much,” I threw the magazine onto the table and covered my face with my hands.

“Well, they assume that we’re together, right?” I nodded my head, my face still hidden from my hands, “Well, we could make their assumptions true if you want?” I pulled my hands away and stood up straight, my hands now on my hips.

“What are you getting at, Kaulitz?” I cocked my eyebrow up as he stood up from his leaning position.

“What I’m getting at is that maybe we should try again, and it won’t be just a fling. We can be than that, if you want to that is,” I smiled widely at Tom, grabbing his shirt and pulling him towards me, crashing our lips together, only to pull away after a matter of seconds.

“I’d love to,” I whispered against his lips, pulling him back into me, my back hitting the fridge as the kiss deepened.

Placing his hand on my butt and lifting me so my legs were wrapped around his waist, Tom began to walk to the stairs to my bedroom to finish what we had started. Something we both knew we wanted. Something we hadn’t done together for 6 whole years. Something we were desperate for right now. Something that would confirm the love that we shared for one another.
