so all marvel had to do to get the hair to stand up on tom holland’s arm was have someone behind him gently blow in his ear… they’re really gonna do my boy dirty and expose his ear kink like that huh…
tom holland: [leaks every marvel spoiler he can get his hands on]
marvel: lmao…. anyways did y’all know tom holland likes it when people mess with his ears
Request: oh ok well the concept was boxer!Tom just being soft for his artist!gf and he thinks she’s so precious and pure and he brags about her talent to his boxing buddies and they’re like yeah you’re a lucky dude lol. I was kinda hoping u could write something about it but u don’t have to:)
A/N: Idk I feel like this would be a cool series tbh but I didn’t know how I’d do a one-shot so here’s a headcanon!

OKAY so boxer!Tom
he’s not exactly “soft” usually
like normally he’s kind of all about the gym
and wants to keep more to himself and boxing buddies
doesn’t really show much affection
his head is just with the sport, ya know?
BUT
then he met you
and the boy was suddenly softer than a puppy
but only around you
you’d met somewhere like a Subway when he was on his way home from the gym
he’d seen you the second he walked in and just became totally infatuated with how concentrated you were on your art
you were bored while you waited on a friend
so he asked you on a date
which was a little bit of mess
he was nervous which doesn’t happen much but it’s you
anyway
y’all had gone on a few dates
and even though you guys are pretty different
you clicked
he told you about his boxing
partially because he liked talking about it
and because you wanted to know why his knuckles looked roughed up all the time
and he asked about your art
like
when i say asked
i mean just wanted to see EVERYTHING
and never let you stop talking about it
so that was the start of a beautiful relationship
he’d asked to make it official
after you picked him up from the gym one day
he had been wanting to
but there was something with the way you had graphite on your nose
and ink smeared on your hands
that made him just blurt out of the question
to which you agreed without hesitation
now your dates
your dates were literally anything between staying inside cuddled on the couch
and going on fancy night outs
tom was more of a fan of just cuddling
especially if that meant you were going to draw
but that’s not all
which totally lead you trying to teach him to draw a few things
it was mostly laughing and tom giving you the sweetest smile
needless to say
he can’t draw and should stick to boxing
anyway because he’s so into your art
you wanted to be into his favorite thing
so you end up going to the gym with him sometimes
and he teaches you some boxing
which you’d think he’d be a little “”harsh”” on
ya know since he knows it and he wants you to do well
but nah
this boy is SOFT
like encouraging words and
“That was really great, love.”
“Can you try this, darlin?”
“This rate, you’ll be kicking my ass.”
and his boxing buddies happen to overhear
and see the way he looks at you
because it’s basically the definition of heart eyes
so ya know they’re all like ??? because wow he’s actually affectionate??
and when you’re not around
all tom does is BRAG about you
a few times you made him a lunch/snack
and you always draw on his napkins
it started as a joke from your first date
you said something about always doodling in class when you were in school
and he asked you to doodle something
but all you guys had were napkins and a pen you kept in your purse
so you made it work and drew a quick doodle for him
so instead of being embarrassed he literally just BEAMS
and shows his friends
“Look! My girlfriend drew this!”
“She’s so talented.”
“Isn’t this amazing?”
And it’s just little two minute doodles
spoiler: tom keep ALL of them
his friends kind of laugh about it
but not to make fun of him but more in the “wow someone is head over heels” way
and a few times, his friends have actually told him how lucky he is
