Opposite day Au is not mine

Eddsworld is not mine


They all had woken up and were all at the kitchen table eating the breakfast Matt had cooked. They were all groggy with sleep since they all just woke up, well except Tom, of course, he always seemed in a good mood. 

Tom happily ate his food, bouncing to the tune that he hummed. He was hoping to look through the attic today since they haven't been able to clean it out yet, so he and Matt were going to do that while Edd and Tord did their shopping for things they needed. 

Matt made himself a plate and sat down next to the blueberry. That was his nickname for Tom since he always seemed to wear his blue sweater and blue stripes that hooked to his blue pants. 

Tom was done with his breakfast and put the plate in the sink, "Thanks for breakfast Matt! Now hurry up and eat yours, I wanna get to the attic already." Tom said leaving the kitchen.  

Matt just sat there and ate his breakfast quietly, he wasn't really in a hurry to do anything today, not like he had anything else to do today, other than beat birds with his bat that would sometimes get caught in the vents having no idea how they get in there. So he accepted to join the blueberry in cleaning the attic. 

Once he was done with his breakfast, he walked over to Tom who was at the Attic door, too short to reach it, so of course, Matt had to reach it and pull the door open, revealing a latter that went to the floor. 

Tom with a bounce in his step, made his way up the latter and into the attic. Matt followed him up. 

Reaching the attic, saw how crowded it was, boxes stuffed in corners, junk sprawled around, dust and webs making themselves at home on said junk and boxes, the window in the attic was blocked off by boxes and some junk. This was going to take a while...

Speaking about said junk he noticed some things he recognized, Like a mop with blood on it, a stuffed cat with a space helmet on it, and...A tambourine monkey... He picked it up and looked at it, he remembered getting it when he was in elementary. 

~FlashBack~

It was his first day in Fourth grade, since he was home schooled he wasn't used to other kids, or even people. He had even cried when his parents were sending him to school, he was ...scared to say the least. His parents dropped him off at school, said there farewells, then they were on there way. His small purple hood brought up over his head, but his orange hair poked out a bit. He had a black backpack on, and black pants on. I slowly and quietly made it to the door, while other kids were gathering up with there friends and having conversations, laughing and having fun. He was very tired that day, being so nervous about going to this 'school' and all. 

He made it to his class and sat in the back, not really wanting to interact with any of the other kids. Keeping his head down until the teacher came in, he didn't really catch her name, not that he was gonna say it, or ask anything. He wished he was at home... 

Over the next few weeks of school, he still hadn't gotten used to it. Some people even picked on his for being too quiet, having orange hair(Yes this does happen, my dad got picked on for having orange hair) , or thinking that he was the teachers pet for having good grades. 

His classes were easy, having all A's only in the first few weeks of school, since his dad was already a professer at a collage.
One rainy day, he was walking to class, students chatting away when he heard someone yell. "Hey! Thats Mine!" Some boy said, Matt walked closer to where the situation was. He saw a small boy, sarounded by three other boys, what was strange is that the Small boy had no eyes, only black eye sockets. The three boys took the smaller boys bag and started dumping out the contents. Notebooks, paper, pens, pencils fell out of the bag. The oldest boy looked angry, turned around at the smaller boy. "Where is it?!" He yelled at the boy, who had tears in his eyes, looking as if he might cry.  "I-i don't k-now-" He said shaking. "Get up!" the oldest said, taking one of the straps of his overalls and forced him to stand up. "Tell me where it is," The eldest said, getting a little too close to comfort. The other two just watched with smirks on there faces. "or I swear I'll-" "Or you'll what?" I said, having seen enough. Getting closer, as I easily stood over them in height. The oldest flitched, dropping the smaller boy. "Who the hell are you?" He said, maybe even a little intimidated by Matts height. 
"Why do you need to know?...What are you doing?" Matt asked, even though he saw what they did. 
"None of your damn business, so leave big boy and go cry to a teacher." He snickered and this kid was only 9, the other two join in the snickering. 
Alright that's it. He took the collar of the eldest shirt and lifted him off the ground, the kid looked so shocked and scared Matt would've laughed if he wasn't so mad. He brought him close and gave him a death stare that would've gave any grown adult chills. "Pick on this boy again, and you'll be eating through a straw for a. very. long. time." He said, and basically threw the kid to the ground. The other two ran off a while ago. Some friends they are I guess. 
He didn't care when a teacher walked out of the class room, and saw the three of them, the hallway. He didn't care that the bully blamed everything on Matt. He didn't care that he was basically dragged to the pricapalls office. 
Now he was waiting in the office, for his parents to come and yell at him for hurting two students, or so they thought. 
The small boy from earlier, saw Matt in the office, and went through the door. 
Matt was surprised to see him here, but didn't show it, the small boy didn't look too rough either. "Uh hey...thank you for taking care of things back there, that means a lot to me." He said with a smile, he noticed a gap between the front two teeth. Cute. 
"No problem...What did they want from you anyways?" He couldn't help but ask. 
"Oh, every day at school I bring a bag of candy to school so I don't fall asleep in class, so I guess they wanted some, but they could've just asked..." He said. 
Matt nodded, "Hey! Since you helped me today I want you to have something!" He said, getting something out of his bag. No one had ever given him something, well other than his parents. 
He held up a tambourine monkey, and gave to Matt, "This is a token of our friendship, I won it as a prize, but you can have it!" Tom said with another goofy grin. 
Matt slightly smiled looking at his new gift, "Thank you...Hey I uh, never got your name." He said, looking at the Small boy. 
"Oh! My names Tom!" He said, "Whats yours?" He asked, sitting next to me in one of the chairs. 
"It's Matt." He said. "Wow thats a nice name, I'm sure will be the best of friends Matt!" Tom said, 

And with that said the two talked until Matts parents came into the office, well it was mostly Tom talking. 
Matt didn't get in trouble as his parents demanded to see footage on the cameras, and the principal said he would take care of the trouble maker, but still told Matt that wasn't the way you should handle things, He didn't care but still nodded, he did some good that day and it was alright...it was okay. 

He said bye to his new friend, as Matt went home.
"So how was your day, sweetie?" His mother said, doing her makeup in front of a mirror. 

Matt looked out the window, with a small smile.
"I made a new friend today..." 

~End flash back~

"Hey Matt what you got there?" Tom asked, as Matt got lost in his memories. 
"oh uh nothing..." Matt said putting the thing back down. 
He looked at Tom with a smile, they did become friends one of his best friends, and he never regretted what he did, and he even thanked the guy that brought them together, he would never forget what he did for Tom that day...and that was alright.
