Date Night

Tord and Tom were starting to get a little more serious. Tom had taken Tord on plenty of dates in the time that they had been dating, and they had had many make out sessions. Today was no different.

After Mr. Jonas had left Tord in seventh hour, Tom entered through the room. The hour was started by Tord and Jonas' conversation on apple juice, then to Tom watching Tord as he played piano. That was followed by Tom starting to give Tord small kisses on his neck and trail his hands around Tord's body; this was followed by Tord stopping his piano playing to reciprocate Tom's affection.

The bell rang and Tom grumbled in the kiss.

"It feels like there's never enough time anymore," Tom mumbled. Tord pushed him back and laughed.

"I think you're just needy," he said. Tom glared.

"I literally am missing my seventh hour to be with you and you call me needy?" Tom pointed out. Tord shrugged nonchalantly.

"I'm not complaining, and I never said that I wasn't." Tom rolled his eyes at Tord's point. He was right.

The boys rode the bus home, making small talk with Edd and Matt. Somehow the conversation turned into a "what age did you start to disappoint your parents" which turned into "who disappointed their parents first" and the entire conversation was just a circle of confusion for Tord who weakly attempted to participate.

The boys said their goodbyes and started to make their way towards their respective homes when Tom grabbed Tord's hand.

"Hey, commie, you wanna go out tonight?" Tom asked. Tord raised a brow.

"Another date?"

"I was thinking more of a sneaking out kind of vibe, but yeah, a date I guess." Tom smiled wickedly. Tord shrugged.

"Maybe if you stay up this time!" He critiqued Tom's poor form after he fell asleep during their conversation a few nights ago.

"Tord, you know I didn't intentionally fall asleep." Tom rolled his eyes. "Please?"

"I'll try." Tord stood on his tiptoes to kiss Tom. "Text me when you get to my house, then, okay?"

"Already planning on it," Tom said as he kissed Tord back. The boys shared on last hug before departing.

Tord unlocked his door and threw his backpack to the side. "I'm home!" he yelled.

He had dinner with his parents and went off to take a shower, thinking about Tom as he did so. What could the other boy possibly want to do in the middle of the night?

Tord finished his shower, retreated to his room, and flopped onto his bed, not bothering to take off his towel or change into clothes. He pulled out his phone that was violently buzzing during his shower.

Tord: Wow.

Tord: You wanna just text now?

EDGELORD: sure

Tord teased Tom about the username for a bit until he asked Tom what he was planning to do tonight. Tom refused to tell Tord any of the said plans, which almost pissed off Tord, but he could understand why Tom didn't want to tell him. It was a surprise date.

It was 12:35 when Tord got the text.

im here commie

Tord looked outside his window and saw the blue clad teen standing at the base of the tree that sat outside his window. Tord carefully removed the screen and put it to the side and climbed out. He hopped onto the tree in front of his window and climbed down.

"Hey," Tord said, but he was cut off by Tom's lips. Tord laughed as Tom smiled.

"I brought my car," Tom said as he pulled away and led Tord to follow him.

"What about your dad?"

"I asked him to leave. He really couldn't care," Tom said. He smiled. "Which is why we'll go back to my place if we get caught. Seamless plan. We were sleeping over and dad said we could go to the diner, right? Perfect." Tord laughed at Tom's confidence. Tom opened the door to his car for Tord and closed it after him, getting in the driver's side after.

Tord was confused when Tom didn't drive to a diner, but instead, a park. Tom smiled at his boyfriend as he pulled the keys out of the ignition.

"Follow me," he said as he got out of the car. Tord got out and followed the boy.

Tom pushed aside some bushes and leaves that hung low on the trees as he walked. Tord was again more confused as to why they went to the greenery behind the park rather than the actual park.

"Check this out, commie." Tom smiled wickedly as Tord's mouth fell agape.

It was a small lake, more like a pond, really. It was surrounded by trees except for the last opposite of where they emerged, which faced the city. The city lights shone upon the dark water with a beautiful glow. Damn it, Tom knew that Tord was a sucker for this kind of stuff.

Tord pulled off his shoes and socks, the rolled up his pant legs. Tom shook his head and laughed when Tord jumped at how cold the water was. Tom sat next to Tord, refusing to put his feet in the water. They sat and talked for a while.

After the pond, Tom drove Tord out to a small diner. Tord fell in love with it, not having been to many diners back in Norway.

They ordered pancakes to share while Tord had coffee and Tom had tea. The boys once again sat and talk, Tom being much more flirtatious.

The boys made their way to Tord's house after another two hours. They made out in Tom's car for a good half hour before Tom started getting too touchy.

"Babe, we can save this for another time. I don't want to do this in the passenger seat of your old ass car," Tord chuckled into Tom's lips. Tom rolled his eyes and groaned.

"You had to wait until I was getting handsy to say that?"

"I could've waited even longer." Tord smiled as he unlocked the car door.

"Tonight was awesome. Thank you a lot Tom, really. I mean it. I love you." Tord gave the larger boy one last kiss before departing. He waited for the car to drive off before climbing back up the tree and into his window. He put the screen back in and flopped onto his bed, the warm feeling in his stomach making him smile.

He loved this boy.
