The rest of the weekend went uneventful. I went home and told my parents that I would be tutoring someone on Wednesdays and Thursdays, and they were ecstatic for me. "You realize that means I will be at the library for a few hours, right?"

"Of course we do. Right, (father's name) f/n?" my mom said, shooting daggers at my father.

"Yes, we do just come right home afterwards or- oof!" I could tell that my mom had kicked him from under the table.

"stay out as long as you like, dear. just come back before 8 for dinner and homework ok? We'll give you a little leeway on Friday and Saturday." she says smiling at me, then later glared at my father. "Y/n, can you please take your plate to the kitchen and go get ready for bed? I need to talk with your father alone for a few minutes." she told me sweetly as i nodded and take care of my dishes, then heading up to get dressed for bed. I look at my phone to see that Tord had texted me.

[Hey, are you going to the store this week? I need to talk to you...]

                 {yeah I'm tutoring someone there on Wednesday and Thursday but I'll probably be there a bit after we're done.}

[ok great, I'll see you tomorrow then.]

                 {wait, why couldn't you just talk to me tomorrow at school?}

[It has to be somewhere... Private... I really don't want the others to know]

                                                        { . . . }
                                                           {ok}

[Thanks y/n! I'll see you tomorrow]

"see you tomorrow, trickster..." I say to myself as I realize I was smiling. I curled up in bed, thinking about how I would see him tomorrow. The phrase repeated over and over in my head, as I slowly fell asleep.

BEEP BEEP BEEP

I pound my alarm clock and pull myself out of bed and over to the closet, grabbing my normal clothes.

I walk downstairs, going through my morning routine.  I leave for school and walk down the road, the feeling of being watched returning slightly. I look around, trying to find something. I glint in the blushes, a flash in clothing, anything. Anything at all.
Y/n, you're going to be late. Hurry up and get to school so you can see Tord and the gang. I tell myself, continuing to walk but staying alert.

I reached school without anything else happening again, quickly shrugging it off when I saw a group of familiar hoodies. "Hey guys!" I shout as I run up to them from the bottom step. "What's up?" I ask once I get there.
Edd stared at me. "Uh, you. You just ran up the steepest steps I've had to climb and you're not even out of breath. How is that possible?" He asked, bewildered.
"Huh? Oh. I took track back in America. Guess I still have some endurance built up." I reply, shrugging off the topic.
"Well anyways we should get to class..." Edd said somewhat cautious.

I nod and watch blue, green, and purple hoodies leave, but not a red one. "Did you need something, Tord?" I ask as I turn towards him.
"Hmm..? Oh yeah. I just wanted to thank you for coming over and being so chill with the movie. Do you watch a lot of horror movies?"
"Yeah, I guess. I watch some bad ones but sense I took a film making class movies can be really predicable if you know their layout. "I explain to him as I started walking, Tord besides me. "huh... Interesting... You should talk to Tom about that, he loves to film."
I nodded and then caught sight of a familiar trio. "Tord?"
"Yes y/n?"
"Take my hand."
"What?" He whisper-shouted.
"Take my hand, now." I tell him and gripped his hand. "It's that ass, Eduardo..."
He nodded and looked down at my hand. "You have a strong grip for a woman. "
"What does being a girl have to do to with anything?" I say, playfully shoving him with my shoulder. "Oh, no nothing. Sorry if that sounded offensive. " he apologized. I saw that we were passing Eduardo and he gang and they were shooting daggers at us. If looks could kill, we'd be dead. "No no it's alright, babe." I say using the reassuring couple voice I've heard so often. Tord looked at me, blushed then realized that we were passing the three. "No really, I am. In fact, I'll even get you something after school, just to apologize." He mimicked the voice like he had heard it, but it almost sounded...  Sincere..? "Aww babe!" I say, giggling. After another minute or so, we were out of ear shot of the three boys and at our lockers. I sigh and look at Tord. "Sorry about that. I know neither of us want to deal with them today so I went for the only option I would think work."
He was looking into my ((eye colour)) e/c eyes and was smiling a bit. "No, no it's ok. Really. I understand entirely. " I looked over to see we were in front of his locker. "I guess this is your stop." I say, slightly giggling after.
"I guess it is." He shrugged. I went to leave then realized that our hands were still intertwined.  "Oh! We're still-" I look up at him, slightly blushed. "Holding hands..." He was blushed as well, but he kept holding my hand. I stared into his redish eyes and he looked back at mine. I heard less footsteps in the hallway and left go. "Well, it's almost time for class, so I better get going. I'll see you in class, ok?" I say while I start to run off.
"see you in class..." Tord replied, his hand still up where it was when I let go.




Tord's P.O.V.

I stood there, watching y/n go. She seemed so happy it was almost- no. I have a job. And like hell she'd feel the same way.

RIIIIIING

Shit! I'm going to be late!

~~your pov and time skip brought to you by: oh my god, he tore off his arm!~~

As I walked to my locker, I could see a note on it.

Meet me behind school
~babe

I chuckled and took the note down, packing up my bag and heading out behind the school after saying goodbye to a few friends.
I walked back by the dumpsters and waited. I was there for a bit before I saw Tord walk out with a rose in his hand. I started at him, my face flushing as red as the rose.
"Hey..." He said, a little shy, but covering it up with confidence.
"Hey... I didn't think that you would-"
"Actually get you something? Yeah well, neither did I, but I guess we're both here..." He blurted out, offering me the rose. "I felt myself heating up again as I took it. "T-Tord, you didn't have to." I mumbled
"yeah I know, but I wanted to. You've been really nice to me so I thought I'd return the favour..." He said, scratching the back of his head.
"Thank you..." I say, practically a whisper as his eyes looked back at me. "It's a beautiful rose... Thank you." I tell him, looking back up.

He nodded at me and ran his hand through his hair, the giving me a faint smile. "See you tomorrow, y/n..."

"see you tomorrow, Tord..."
