One Way Ride (TomxReader) [Eddsworld]

Chapter 6

You look at Tom's worried expression as panic starts to build up. Nathen looks at you and then at him.

"You know her?"

"Yes, we are friends"

Nathen looks at you to make sure he wasn't lying before pushing you toward him.

"Take care of her while I take care of him"

Tom nods and you quickly grab your bag before Tom gently set his hand on your shoulder. You wince from pain and he immediately let's go.

"Sorry"

You shake your head and walk out with him.

"My car is over here"

You nod and follow him. The wind blew against your open wound, making you wince. Tom grabs a bandana from the back seat and gently puts it against your lip. You take it and hold it there. He gives you a soft smile and then gets in. You get in the backseat and lay down on your stomach to make sure the glass doesn't go any deeper. He starts up the car and starts driving. You grab your phone from your bag and text your dad why Nathen might be pissed and he might need to prepare. As soon as you go to set your phone down he calls. You groan and answer.

"Hello?"

"Mind TELLING me what happened?!"

You rub your forehead and sigh.

"Nah, there's ICE in the cooler you just have to check"

You hear him take a second before replying.

"There's someone around huh"

"Mhm"

He sighs.

"Still have your location on?"

"Yeah"

"When I see it stops, I'm coming over and patching you up"

He hangs up before your could reply. You groan and rest your head on the seat, trying to keep the bandana on your lip and hope the cut on your cheek isn't bleeding as bad.

"Everything alright?"

"My dad knows what happened"

"Is he mad"

"A little but he's more worried about my well-being than the drama of this"

"Hm"

It goes silent for a second.

"You know, that's the first time I've ever heard you talk about family"

You chuckle and look at him in the mirror.

"I have more family than you think."

He looks back at you in the mirror before looking back at the road.

"Should I be worried about your dad?"

"Eh, just don't argue with him and you will be fine."

He nods then stops the car.

"We are here"

He turns off the car and you carefully get out, trying not to hurt yourself.

You grab your bag from the back seat and Tom walks over to you.

"Before we go in, I have two roommates that are home"

"Okay? As long as they don't faint at the sight of blood we should be fine"

Tom chuckles and then leads you up to the porch. You hear a guy yell but when you turn to look at him, his eyes go wide.

"Who is that"

Tom looks over and groans.

"Our neighbor, he's kind of a pain in the ass"

"I can see that"

You look back over at him but he when inside. You shrug then Tom opens the door, holding it open for you. You walk in and hear a gasp from someone.

"TOM?! WHAT HAPPENED"

You look over to see a man in a green hoodie run up. His brown hair was down and fluffy.

"I recognize that voice, you must be Edd. We meet over the phone a while ago"

Edd looks at you confused

"How are you this calm?! Your bleeding badly!"

You give him a soft smile.

"Take a breath and calm down. I am aware of my situation. Now, where is your bathroom"

Tom points to it

"Is a first aid kit in there?"

"Yes"

"Cool"

You take off the suit jacket and head to the bathroom, shutting the door behind you. You could hear Tom and Edd talk but it's all muffled. You grab the first aid kit and look in the mirror. The blood pouring down your mouth and cheek was not a pretty cite. You pull your hair back and start cleaning the cut on your cheek and lip when you heard your dad's voice. You open the door and look over at the door where Edd and Tom were looking at him with a confused expressions.

"Hi dad"

He looks at you and then pushes passed Tom and Edd.

"Holy shit muffin"

You smile as he rushes over.

"You should look at my back."

"Did you at least win?"

"Well, he's bleeding more than I am"

He holds back a smile and looks over at Tom.

"Thank you for getting her here"

"Uh yeah, no problem"

He then looks at you then gently pushes you into the bathroom.

"Come on patches"

You scoff

"Rude"
