It's been three years since he escaped abuse and was taken in by the Kavanaghs, but he's still stuck in the past. While his siblings move on like nothing happened, Tadhg can't forget. He fills his days with Hurley, avoiding Shannon's loud friends, and hanging out with a crew that feels a little too much like his brother Joey's old one. Then she shows up. Ophelia Holland is all sunshine on the outside, but her life is nothing but shadows. Born into chaos, with a junkie brother and parents who barely noticed her, her pale skin tells stories in bruises. Tadhg sees them because he's lived them. And even if he doesn't want to care, he does. Now he has to choose: stay closed off, or step up and save her from the same story he's trying to forget. ______ [ tadhg lynch 𝗫 fem oc ] [ boys of tommen ] ━ [ 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝: 6.23.25 ] ✦˚₊ ‧ 𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐎𝐍 𝐆𝐈𝐑𝐋 ! ━━━━━━ ↳ status ━ ongoing ⋆✴︎˚｡⋆

Leah was lucky. After a lifetime of poverty, her and her mother were saved. She had new clothes, a new house, a fancy new school, a new step father, and everything she had ever lacked. But as it too often is, everything was too good to be true. Yes, her private school uniform is pristine but the bruises that lie underneath tell a different story. But she can hide it, she just has to get through this year, and then she can be free, but everything starts to unravel when she meets a boy. At age twelve, Tadhg was saved. He got out of that haunted house. He had adoptive parents that adored him, his siblings were happy, and he was finally safe. So why did he still feel this way? Why was he still on edge after all these years? He should be thriving like his brothers and his sister, and yet he wasn't. He was numb to it all, until he met her. She unraveled him. This is a Boys of Tommen fan fiction, following Tadhg Lynch and Leah Daly. This story is the third instalment in my 'Boys of Tommen You Series' and is connected to my other two stories, 'Seeing You' and 'Haunting You' but are not required to read before this one. Also I'll start updating this story once I finish 'Haunting You' All of these characters belong to Chloe Walsh, I do not claim any of them as my own, this is purely for fun. As there is not much information surrounding Tadhg and Leah's story, I won't be following any canon, and Leah's story will be entirely created by me. TW: This story will include character death(flashbacks), domestic abuse, child abuse, sexual abuse, drug addiction, smoking, mental illnesses and overall a lot of trauma. There will also be some explicit scenes that are 16+. I will however be putting specific warnings for different chapters, so you can avoid triggers. Thank you so much for reading and I hope you enjoy! (Comment any questions or suggestions that you have for me)

Tadhg Lynch is a bystander watching his own downfall, his traumatic childhood memories lingering in the wounds littered across his skin. While the bruising may have faded with time, the mental scars that remain require more than just time to heal. Perhaps Jade Lordan is the perfect remedy. ੈ✩‧₊˚ [BASED ON THE BOYS OF TOMMEN SERIES BY CHLOE WALSH]
