'' I Don't Think Your A Monster. '' | Monster!Tom X Reader

Chapter 9: Confrontation

Someone has broken into your house. 

You sneak around on tip-toe into the kitchen. Some of the drawers are open. You notice one thing. Everything is scattered on the ground except for the knives. Your eyes widen in terror and you creep up the stairs to hide in your room. You sneak down the hall as if every room is going to burst open and someone will come to attack you. 

In summary, it's obvious you aren't safe. 

You take a look behind yourself, making sure there's no one there. You sigh in relief as you see nothing. Maybe it was just something Tom had done earlier. Although he was on the roof the time you saw him, he may have tried to come inside from the kitchen. You let go of all the thought. You feel exhausted after everything that happened today. You open the door and not even a foot inside, you're pinned down. 

Your eyes widen as you see Tord. Tord broke in and searched for weapons, then hid in your room when all he could find was knives. Either that or he wanted to leave you defenseless. Nevermind what happened before, what's happening now is more important than thinking of the past. Tord puts his finger up to his lips and shushes you. '' You don't want to poke the bear. '' Tord smirks, his head tilting toward the window facing across the street. '' I'd poke him if it means you getting off of me! Get the hell off of my and get out of my house! '' You demand. You realize immediately after that's only going to make him even more ruthless. " Oh please, I'm the leader of an army. You think a girl like you can stop me? Get real. '' Tord snaps. " Plus, the only reason I'm here is because you're special. Tom likes you. And that's saying something. " Tord adds. You growl. " What does Tom tolerating me have to do with this? " You snap back. 

Tord chuckles and boops your nose. " You really are a silly girl. You'd be great with him. Like a pair of jokers in a card deck. " Tord replies. " You still haven't answered me. Why are you doing this? '' You ask sternly. " You think I'm gonna tell you? " Tord responds. You growl and roll your hand into a fist. Tord doesn't have you fully pinned down, so you punch him in the side. Those self-defense classes really paid off. Tord gets distracted for a second and you get the strength to push him off of you. Tord stumbles over and falls into the wall after getting up. " Enough playing around. Time to do what I REALLY came for. " Tord smirks and pulls out a gun from a pocket in his overcoat. He shoots and you dodge in enough time. You quickly turn toward the window, thinking of making a break for it. You see someone running across the street toward your house. The door to Edd's place is open. 

Someone comes running up the stairs. 

The door bursts open. 

Tord turns around with a smile, as if he was expecting this to happen. " Thomas. What a surprise. "
