★fallen star★ [tomtord]

night-time dances

P.S: hey guys, stars here! im just going to tell you guys that this story is going to be pretty short; about 15-20 chapters. i love making it but i feel like its not meant to be a long story. maybe one day i'll make another tomtord story i dunno. and YES this is loosely based off of "dear star-boy" but since it's not copyrighted and i love the neighbor idea, i started writing this. if you are uncomfortable with sad endings/self-harm then i recommend you stop reading right here. thanks guys!

//a few weeks later//

tom woke up. his arm still ached after he had gotten drunk. nobody knew about it except him and tord, though. nobody knew that they were dating either.

he got up and sat at his desk, reading the letters that T.L had sent him. the next one hadn't arrived, so he would go through all of his old ones.

55. someday there will  be a happy ending, just keep hoping

67. the way you have an interest in stars and how you make them so exciting makes me want to spend all night star-gazing with you.

tom fumbled with his fingers. he loved how T.L cared about him, but he was with tord. tord was his and all his. he loved it when they laughed together. he loved it when they would spend all night sitting in a field of flowers watching the stars.

tom shook his head to get rid of his daze and opened his window and jumped out, landing neatly on the ground. he ran over to tord and tackled him in a hug.

"very energetic tonight i see?"

"yep! very energetic."

they laughed as they rolled around together. tom finally got up still laughing and helped tord up.

"you know, nebula-boy. i was thinking we could dance a little, what do you say?"

"dancing? i dont dance." tom felt his face turn reddish-pink. 

"i can tell. just take my hands."

tom did as he was told and they started to dance. one of tords arms was around his hips and the other one he was holding. tom put his arm around his  neck, and they danced across the field of flowers in the moonlight, smiling and blushing and laughing.

"i love you tord."

"i love you too, tommy."

"can we become fallen stars together one day?"

"of course! we can live up in the sky and star-gaze and make flower-crowns all day and night."

"i bet you'll look beautiful."

"not nearly as beautiful as you, though. lets sit down for a bit."

tord pulled away and sat down, smiling at him. tom sat down next to him, his face pink. he leaned onto tord. tord's arms wrapped around his waist, pulling him closer.

"if you want to kiss me just do it already!"

"fine, fine. needy much?"

tord kissed tom on the lips, holding it for a while. he pulled away and smiled at him. then his name was called from the house.

"goodbye nebula-boy."

"goodnight flower-child."

"i love you."

"i love you too."

tord ran off, and tom was left to think of the dance and kiss they had just shared.
