Edd's POV
"I. AM NOT. YOUR FRIEND!" Tom shouted as he shot the harpoon at Tord's giant robot.
The harpoon hit the back of the robot and the second it hit, it exploded. I saw Tord falling down after the explosion. Seeing he hit the ground hard. I looked up at him, I could see the right side of his face and his right arm covered in blood. Tord's expression went from happiness to...sadness.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A sudden slam snapped me out of my thoughts, it was apparently from Tom. "Yo Edd, you were daydreaming again."
"I-I was? ..Sorry Tom I guess I was deep in my thoughts once again.", I sighed as I got up from the table from where I was sitting. I forgot I had my own apartment now.
"Do you want to talk about it? You've been pretty quiet ever since that bastard of a commie destroyed our home.", Tom asked with a slight look of anger on his face.
"That's the thing Tom. I keep having these random dreams every night about Tord. I think I...I think I miss him."
Tom walked over to me "You? You miss him? Do you not remember the horrible shit he has done to us? He also killed Jon for fuck sake!", he said angrily at me as his eyes flickered purple for a second. Don't know why but I just brushed it off.
"What if he didn't mean to do all that, hm? I still think Tord has some good in him. Unless...it's more than that." I explain to Tom who obviously ignored what I told him.
"Whatever Edd believe what you want to believe, but I know for a fact Tord doesn't have any good in him whatsoever. If you want to talk about this more then talk to Matt, I'm not dealing with that kind of bullshit. I'll see you later." Tom picked up his flask full of smirnoff and walked out the door.
Tom can be so ignorant but I can't do anything about it. I sluggishly walk over to my couch and lay down turning on the TV. I decided to put on Professor Why.
...Could Tom be right though? No, he can't be. He knows how I see good in everyone. Maybe I'll take my time and think about what to do.
Tom's POV
I was back in my apartment. It was small but it was home. I just can't believe Edd. Why in all things would he think Tord would have good in him? I sat down on my couch drinking smirnoff. Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"Come in"
It was Matt so I quickly hid my flask behind a pillow before he could see it. He doesn't like it when I drink so I do it without him knowing.
"Hey Matt, what you need?" I asked trying to make conversation
"I just heard some arguing from you and Edd and I got really worried so I came to check on you." Matt gave a worried smile but glanced over at the couch noticing I was covering the pillow that hid the smirnoff.
Matt walked over and gently pushed me out the way. He picks up the pillow and frowned. "Tom..you said you'd stop."
"I..uh, it's not what it looks like." I responded.
"No, it's exactly what it looks like. If anything you seem to be doing it more than you have lately. It worries me." Matt sat down on the couch.
"Could you tell me why?"
I sighed. I guess I have to if it'll get him to worry less about me.
"Okay, I'll tell you but please don't tell Edd." I asked. Matt nodded.
"It's just- ever since Tord destroyed our house and well betrayed us, I never liked him from the start of course, but I can't help but worry about you and Edd. Edd is like a brother to me...and you Matt. I see you more than just a friend." His cheeks turn pink. "I guess I'm only afraid that you guys will get hurt again. And Matt, I love you.
Matt started blushing hardcore and hugged me tight. He was tearing up from what I told him.
"I love you too Tom." I hug him back. It felt like it lasted a lifetime. Then we pulled away from each other.
"So, promise you won't tell Edd? He can't know that someone like me just spit out how I feel, that's not anger". I told Matt.
"No worries Tom! Now just lay down and relax. And maybe think about my pretty face!" Matt grinned. I chuckled at him.
"Could you maybe hand me Susan? I'd like to play her." I pointed over to where I left her.
"Of course!" Matt walked over to where she was and walked back to hand her to me.
"Thanks Matt" I smiled. Matt leaned in and gave me a kiss on the forehead.
"Anytime Tom, anytime. I better go check up on Edd though. Just please be okay?"
"I will Matt, as long as I have you I know I'll be okay." I blushed. "Besides I also got Susan here."
Matt laughed. "Alright, see you later my Tomee Bear~."
"See you later handsome boy" I said and Matt giggled.
Matt walked out the door. I just laid back and strummed a few cords.
Edd's POV
While I watched Professor Why I heard a knock on the door. I got up to open the door seeing that it was Matt.
"Hey Edd, mind if I come in?" He waited for my answer. "Edd?" I snapped out of my thoughts.
"Oh! Not at all. Come on in Matt" I stood out the way.
"You alright? You seem a bit tensed up." He asked.
I rubbed the back of my neck "It's nothing really, I'm okay I promise."
"It's just I heard you and Tom argue so I wanted to check on both of you. I already talked to Tom. Now I'm here for you."
I felt guilty. I don't like keeping things bottled up, but I had to. I can't let my friends worry. Then again Matt does worry a lot. Maybe it's best I tell him. He'll understand better than Tom.
"You talked to Tom, huh? He's probably mad at me now." I sighed.
"Why would you think he's mad?" Matt looked concerned.
"While I talked to him I told him how I actually do miss Tord..even after all he's done from the robot incident. I really do miss him Matt. I just get this feeling in my gut, telling me he can change or has changed." I looked down, frowning.
"I'm sure Todd" "Tord" I corrected Matt. "has changed, he maybe realized his mistake? If not then you and Tom can always compliment how great I am!" Matt squealed.
"Heh at least you understand Matt. I just hope Tom comes around." I give a weak grin,
"I'm sure he will!" Matt smiles as he rubs my back in circles.
