In Our Nightmares | TordTom

Chapter 35

Tord's POV

I rubbed my head and sat up. I looked around and sighed

This place again

I looked around and spotted the guys. I stood up and went over to them "Hey guys" I said

"Oh hey Tord!" Matt said

I chuckled "Hey Matt" I said "Anyway, has anything happened?" I ask

"No, not really, we've just been sitting here" Edd said

I nodded and looked around "Wonder when and what the next memory is gonna be" I said "What about you Tom?" I ask and looked at him, only to see him staring at me. It was then I realized I didn't have my hoodie on here, and Tom was staring at my bare torso "Thomas?" I repeated

His face flushed and his gaze averted from me "I- Uh- Yea?" He stuttered

"I asked you something" I said

"Um, can you repeat it please?" Tom asked as his blush slowly started to fade

I sighed "When do you think the next memory was gonna appear? And what is it gonna be about?" I ask

"Oh uh. I dunno" Tom said "It can be anything"

"Like my beautiful face!" Matt pipped in "It should be about my face" He said brightly

Edd let out an over-exaggerated sigh "Yea, it's definitely gonna be that" He said

I chuckled "Let's just see what's gonna happen"

I hugged a small brown bear into my chest as I walked into the woods. I had tears streaming down my cheeks. I navigated my way through the trees and over the roots. All while clutching into the bear. I was set on going somewhere. Did I say that the memory was ripped? No? Well now you know

It showed me walking for a while before I stopped at a lake. It was surrounded by trees and the sun was directly over the water, making it shine. It was beautiful. I smiled weakly and sat down near it, I wiped the tears from my cheeks

The scene changed to Edd

Edd was walking in the woods, going towards the way I had went. He was skipping a bit and a smile on his face. He got to a place near the lake, where there were a bunch of flowers. Edd giggled and ran over picking some and he sat down on the grass setting the flowers in front of him

I began picking them up one by one and made them into a flower crown. He carefully made them, they looked beautiful. Edd had a talent. One people didn't really find interest in. But it's what he likes. So he does what he wants

The scene changed to Tom

Tom was hurrying into the woods. He had two small purple horns starting to grow from his tiny head, his yellow shirt was bright in the woods. But it was getting ripped a bit from it catching on things. A purple tail was growing, it was a little long

Tom ran and ran. He ran over to a big and thick tree. He climbed up it, using the little holes in the tree for his hands and feet. I pulled himself up and sat in a larger hole he made into the tree. It was where he hid himself to calm down. He found it, oddly comfortable. His tail wrapped around him and he felt the horns on his head

"It's gonna be ok Thomas.." He whispered to himself as he shut his eyes

The scene changed to Matt

3rd Person's POV

"Ashes get back here!" Matt called out as he ran after his pet, he ran into the woods, Matt was only a little hesitant to go after him, but he still went "Ashes!" Matt called out as he wondered, he had lost sight of him

Matt was getting nervous and scared as he walked. He didn't know where he was and he knew he was lost. He kept walking, and walking. Eventually, he saw the sun reflecting off of water, it was a pond. And he saw a boy sitting near it, he wore a red t-shirt hoodie and a black long sleeve shirt under

He walked over to the boy "Um hello" Matt said sorta quietly

The boy looked up startled and looked at Matt, that was when Matt saw he was holding a small bear "Sorry. I don't know other come here" He said, he had an accent, it was thick, like, very thick

Matt paused, putting what he just said into a sentence that made sense to him "No, no it's fine. I just um.. I'm lost, my pet ran away and I followed him.. I lost track of where he went" Matt said

"Oh" The boy said, he and Matt both jumped a bit when they heard a scream

"Ah! Help me!" It didn't sound so far, Matt and Tord both grew concerned, and slightly scared. A boy with a green t-shirt and a black long sleeve shirt under, ran not that away from them, there was a black wolf dog going after him, it was small, so it must be still young. It probably thought the green boy was playing

Matt's eyes widen "Ashes!" He said as he then ran after them, Tord didn't really know what to do, but he decided to follow them since he wanted to make sure they wouldn't get hurt

It changed over to Tom

Tom's horns and tail have faded, well his tail did, he just hid the small stubs on his head with his hair. He stayed in his tree, he looked out as he heard running and boys' panicked voices "It's gonna eat me!" One boy said, over-dramatically

Tom moved and looked out better. He saw a small boy running from what seemed to be a black wolf. Tom looked at the boy, he was scared. Tom climbed out of the tree. The boy ran by Tom, which made him back up against the tree from surprise. As the wolf was about to run by him

He quickly grabbed it and hugged it so it can't run. It tried to struggle from Tom's grip but he had a firm grip. It eventually stopped and looked up at Tom "Ashes!" A boy said panting as he slowly slowed down

Tom looked over at him, it was a ginger, followed by a male in red. Tom blinked and stared at them. He looked back at the wolf as it licked the bottom of his jaw. The ginger saw the wolf and a look of relief came into his face "Ashes there you are" He said and walked over

Tom looked at the ginger and held out the wolf to him. Matt to the wolf and held him close "Thank you" He said

The boy in green walked back slowly "I-.. I did not like that-.. One bit" He panted

"I am very sorry! He must've thought you were playing" Matt said

Edd panted and took a breath "It's-.. It's fine" He said finally catching his breath

They both paused and they all looked at eachother. Tom just stood there quietly, he hasn't spoken at all yet "U-um.. So what are names?" Tord spoke up looking at them

They all seemed to be confused for a second until Matt spoke first "Oh! I'm Matt!" He said and smiled

"Edd" Edd said

"I Tord!" Tord said then looked at Tom "You?"

Tom's cheeks turned a little pink and he got all shy "O-oh.. U-um T-Thomas..." He said

Edd gasped "I wanna call you Tom!" He said enthusiastically

Tom hummed shyly "Y-you can.."

Tord stared at him for a moment before walking over to him, Tom seemed to get more nervous when he did. He backed up slightly, that was until Tord held out his bear to him. Tom blinked and looked at it "Take it Thomas" Tord said

Tom was a bit hesitant, but he slowly reached over and grabbed the bear gently. It was soft "W-why you give m-me this?" Tom asked

Tord smiled "You need calm down! And you stutter" Tord said and pat Tom's head "But bear make you better"
