Red - Tomtord AU (COMPLETED)

Chapter Twenty-Eight

A loud thud hit against the ground.

Edd opened his eyes, gasping. "TOM!" He had ran over to his friend, Red stepped back and watched the scene unfold as tears fell from Edd's eyes. 

Tom smiled slightly, clinging onto Edd with one hand as the other covered his pouring wound. "Tord's still in there, I c-can't...I love him so much, I-I couldn't let him die.." He trailed off, his eyes fluttering closed. 

"Tom?! Tom! No-- Stay awake, it's okay. I-I'm here..." Edd combed his fingers through Tom's hair.

"Edd?" Matt said, looking at his boyfriend.

Silence.

"Edd." He repeated, in which Edd glared slightly.

"Can't you see my friend is close to fucking dying! WHAT DO YOU WANT?!" And once he turned, he noticed Red wasn't in the room anymore. "Fuck.." He whispered, taking Matt's hand.

"Let's end this."

Tom looked up. The ground had been white, along with everything around him. "Holy pony macaroni-- am I dead?!" He turned, seeing nothing but white.

"Tom,"

A hand on his shoulder made him whip around, he was faced with the one and only Tord. His Tord. "TORD!" He felt tears pour from his eyes as he crushed his face into Tord's hoodie. "I miss you, oh god-- I'm so sorry. I love you, I love you so much."

Tord hugged him tightly, smiling himself. "I love you too, so much. I'm sorry for putting you through this,"

Tom pulled away slightly, locking eyes with Tord, his eyes widening. "What's with the uh...Am I dreaming?" In fact, Tord had been slightly see-through, kissing Tom's forehead.

"I wanted to be with you again before I fade," 

"Fade?? What does that mean?!" 

"He's getting stronger, Tom. Red is dominating over me everyday. Soon, I'll cease to exist and he'll have my body in a matter of hours, and I'll be gone." Tord's attention turned to the floor, smiling weakly. "And even if this is the only moment I have left, I'm so happy to spend it with you." He laced his fingers with Tom, in which Tom pulled away.

"What?! So you're just giving yourself up?? You told me yourself that I made you stronger..you can't just leave-- please Tord, don't leave me. I wanna spend the rest of my stupid life with you, I love you so much. You have to keep fighting, please. Tord please, do it for me."

"I can't,"

"Yes the fuck you can! I know you better than anyone else here. You're better and stronger than Red will ever be. Please please please you can't just give up!"

Tom cupped Tord's face in his hands, making him look at him. "Red is only as strong as you make him, if you really want to be with me forever; you'd fight harder. Please." At this point, Tom started to cry harder, in which Tord kissed his tears away.

"I'll try, I will. Please don't cry, it's okay," He pulled Tom into his arms. "I love you, Jehovah."

And Tom swears, when he opened his eyes. The whiteness in the room turned to purple.

Matt and Edd searched the entire house.

"He's not even here!" Matt called to Edd, joining his boyfriend in the living room.

"He has to be here, why would he leave??" Edd huffed, "Look harder! He's here. And be careful, okay?" He lightly kissed Matt's cheek, watching his boyfriend walk away and go upstairs. He turned, sighing slightly as he started checking the living room again, walking in the direction of the kitchen. The light was off. He entered the kitchen, flicking on the light as he looked around; nothing was there. Edd sighed through his nose, turning.

"Edd! Ah, you found me," A blade was in his hand, smiling like a maniac.
