Wrong body - Eddsworld

Chapter 8 - lunch break

Matt's POV:

As I walked down the hallways, I read the sighs placed by doors. They read: Kate's office, Alex's office, storage room, Paul's office, restroom, lab, and so on. Wait what's in the lab room? Wait... lab? that means inventions, inventions mean something that could help me get back. I opened the door without thinking, luckily no one was in there.

Okay, just need something that looks like that object me and Tom found. I looked around for a bit but saw nothing alike. Only these dum glass full of liquids and metal tools scattered around the counters.

"Well this wasn't any help-" I stopped as I heard footsteps coming this way.

Creek

The door opens and closes with two pars foot steps. Luckily there was enough time and space in this cabinet.

"So did you see the red leader today." One voice said.

"Yeah, he's acting weird today." The other voice said.

"He's always weird Jack." The first voice said. Okay so the second voice is named Jack huh... wait why are they being mean to Tord. Oh yeah he is a jerk he punched me in the face and blew up the house. I remembered.

"Why did the last leader give him the job anyway?" Jack said.

"Ha! I don't know, I feel like Oscar would have been a so much better option." Who's Oscar? I wanted to see what they looked like so I opened the cabinet door a little. But it seemed a little easier to move than before and I fell face first to the ground.

"Ow, my face." I mumbled then saw the two that were talking stop and look at me. I stood up as quickly as I could and dusted my clothes off. "Oh, uh, hey, I was just, um... fixing the, uh-" I stumbled on my words trying to cover up why I was here... in a cabinet. "I... er..." I looked over at the door then back at them. "I g-got to go." I then ran out the door.

"What did I say, he's a fucking weirdo." God, why are they so mean... hmm, what's this? I saw a piece of paper on the ground. I picked it up and took a look at it. It was a blue sheet of paper with lines on it. It had some writing and a picture of this weird creature? Weird...  eh it's probably useless. I threw it back to the ground.

Tord's POV:

As we walked down the street to the dinner, I could see Tom didn't want to talk. But maybe some conversation won't be so bad, I could get to know him some more. Maybe we could get along, or we could be friends again... where we ever friends. I don't think so, he and I were just roommates that hated each other and were friends with Edd, not with each other.

"So, Tom?" I said. No answer... "um, how do you feel about all of this? How is, um, being Edd?" I said awkwardly.

"It's..." he stopped to think about it. "It's weird."

"Ha, yeah." I gave out a little laugh to cover up my awkward self. I glanced over to him and saw a little smirk appear for a second before he realized I saw it. "Aww, that was cute, why hide it?"

"It's Edd's smile, sooo you think Edd's cute?" He smirked again.

"I, uh, oh look there's dinner!" I changed the subject.

"Yes! Finally. But I still heard what you said." He laughed, then walked over to the dinner ahead of me. Ha, Tom's alright sometimes.

We sat down at a booth and waited for the waiter to come by to take our orders.

"So, Edd?" Tom asked.

"Can we talk about something else." I blushed a little.

"Alright, alright. So what is there to talk about?"

"Hmm, so how is it seeing and talking to yourself?"

"Kinda weird, and I'm not talking to myself. I know you're there dumbass." He paused then said "My turn, how does it feel to be back here?"

"Weird, but nice."

"Nice?" Tom questioned.

"It feels kinda nice to be back here, with you guys, except Matt's not here..." I sat back and admired my surroundings.

"I also have to ask, what happened after the last time we saw you." He asks with a more serious tone.

"Oh, uh..."

"May I take your orders?" The waitress interrupted.

"Can we have a min-"

"No uh we can order now." I said. "Tom what would you like?"

"Oh, uh, I'll have a burger with fries and a, uh, coke I guess..."

"I'll have the same with some cosla on the side."

"Alright, I'll be back with your orders." The waitress left the table.

"Cosla? Really?"

"What I like it, are you allergic or something?"

"No, Matt's the only one with allergies, it's just eh." Tom said with discuss.

"Whatever." I crossed my arms and sat back in my seat again. I looked outside to some birds fly by and some garbage dance in the wind. I must of dozed of from reality because Tom was tugging on my arm.

"You alive?"

"Oh uh! Y-yeah." I said with fright. "I just feel weirdly exhausted."

"Oh, uh... w-well foods here." Tom said from a bit of fright in his voice to a happy cover up tone. Was he hiding something? Nah, maybe it's nothing... Tom started to eat his food starting with his burger.

"Are you going to eat?" Tom asked.

"Oh, uh. I got to head to the bathroom." He seemed a bit weird about that. But I realized I was in his body. "Oh, don't worry, I er, won't look. And where both guys anyway."

"Uh... o-okay..." I stood up and headed to the restroom. As I got there I felt a bit light headed. I looked into the mirror. I saw Tom's 'eyes' looking back at me. Ugh what the hell is going on Tom, god hope your alright... wait why did I say that, well I guess I don't really want him to die...

Tom's POV:

As I sat there waiting form him to get back. Shit, it's been a while I should go check on him. I got up from my seat and headed to the bathroom.

"Tord!" I said as I entered the restroom. "Tord?!" I look over to the sinks... "Tord-" my vision became dark.
