Old Friend or Old Acquaintance ||Tommyinnit x OC||

As Irene exited her streaming room and entered her bedroom she thought about her life before everything changed drastically. She missed living in Nottingham and over everything she missed her friend Tom. Well at least that's what she thinks his name is, it's been so long since she's seen him. She remembers the last time they talked Tom yelled at her because she hadn't told him about her abusive home life and he told her that she didn’t trust him and then left. Little did he know that was the last time he would see her since Irene was going to tell him she was moving to America with her Aunt May. When Tom walked away from her she just started crying and went home and grabbed her carry-on bag for the plane and left Nottingham for what Irene thought was for good. Irene's Aunt told her to not associate with anyone or anything from her past life as they were “Turning a new chapter in their life.” Whatever that ment.

This made Irene change her phone number and change her name legally to Irene. This meant she had to leave and stop talking to her old friends without an explanation. Ava chose the name Irene since she preferred it to Ava and it was also her middle name. But that day she talked to Tom, she was going to tell him that she was moving but she never got the chance to tell him. And that was almost five years ago. Suddenly Irene snapped out of her memories. Irene made her way to her bed and climbed in. She turned off her lights from her phone and as she drifted off to sleep she wondered if she would ever see her childhood friend again.

    That day when Tom left Ava crying he went to her house after he realized he had hurt her feelings and told himself Ava didn’t have to tell him everything, even though it did hurt Tom's feelings he just wanted they're childhood friendship to last. As Tom walked up and knocked on Irene's door her neighbor came out of  they're house. 

“Oh Hello Tom! How are you, sweet boy?” said the elderly lady.

“Hello Mrs.Gatwick! I'm doing just fine. Have you seen Ava and her family? It seems like no one's home?” Tom asked.

“Oh you don’t know that they were moving? Earlier today Ava and her Aunt left, leaving behind Ava’s fighting parents. But soon after Ava’s parents left the house too .” Mrs.Gatwick siad with confusion.

“What? Do you know what town they're moving to?” Tom asked as he asked himself why Ava didn’t tell him that she was moving?

“All I know dear boy is that they were moving out of the Uk. Ava’s Aunt just said that had a family emergency and that they had to move out. I'm sorry they seemed in a rush and I looked like Ava had been crying. Her eyes were red and puffy.”

“Oh thank you, I'm sorry for bothering you, have a good day.” Tom mumbled as he turned around, Tom was stuck in his thoughts.

“Was she going to tell me that she was moving before I yelled at her and left her alone?” Tom asked himself.

“Where is she moving with her Aunt? Where is she moving to? America? Spain? Mexico? Tom would keep asking himself the questions for the next five years.

    Once Tom got home he checked discord and his email to see if Ava had emailed him but no nothing was they're. Tom texted Irene saying
“I'm sorry for yelling at you. I was not in my place to yell at you. Why didn’t you tell me you were moving? Where did you move to? Please respond to me. I'm sorry I will always be here for you. <3”
And for the next year Tom texted her everyday but when it had hit a year with no response he sent her one last text saying
“Im sorry, I love you and miss you, and I will never forget you.”

And from that day on Tom stopped texting her but often checked for a reply but he never got one. In the past five years Tom has gone into streaming and youtube. I had made a lot of new friends, especially since Dream and George not found, had  invited him to there own private minecraft server. Tom had made a lot of new friends. He even was able to get his best friend Tubbo into the smp. Tom met Tubbo through raiding him when they were both quite small streamers and ever since they had become best mates.
