No the video above is NOT for TOMEDD it's for YOUEDD.

[Play it when I say.]

(Your POV)
You had never gone back to sleep. It was 7:00 A.M. and you had woken up at 2:00 A.M. . You were exhausted.

You never told anybody about what you did to your arms. Though, in the time given, you set up everything in your apartment. You had realized your fridge was empty so you decided to go grocery shopping.

~At the Store~

You were walking around the store when you spotted Edd. A light pink dusts your cheeks. Little did you know, you had a small crush on him.

"Hey Edd!" You call out.

"O-oh! Y/N! Didn't see you there!" He walks up to you.

"Last night was fun! We should do it again sometime but at my house!" You tell him.

(Edd's POV)
Oh Y/N...only if you knew...

"S-sure! That sounds fun!" I answer, not wanting her to wait.

"Okay Edd! See 'ya around!" She says as she walks past.

"Bye Y/N!" I say.

Whew! I didn't break down!

I drive back to the apartment complex and walk up to my apartment. I lay in my bed and begin to sing.

[Play song now]

The sun is filling up the room,
And I can hear you dreaming,
Do you feel the way I do,
Right now?

I wish we would just give up,
'Cause the best part is falling,
Call it anything but love,
And I will

Make sure,
To keep my distance.
Say "I love you"
When you're not listening,
How, long,
Can we keep this up,
Up,
Up————————?

Please don't stand so close to me,
I'm having trouble breathing,
I'm afraid of what you'll see,
Right now.

I'll give you everything I am,
All my broken heartbeats,
Until I know you'll understand,
And I will,

Make sure,
To keep my distance.
Say "I love you"
When you're not listening,
How, long,
Can we keep this up,
Up,
Up———————————————!

And I keep waiting————,
For you to take me————!
And you keep waiting————,
To save what we have!

So I'll make, sure,
To keep my distance.
Say "I love you"
When you're not listening,
How, long,
Can we keep this up,
Up,
Up———!

Make sure,
To keep my distance.
Say "I love you"
When you're not listening,
How, long,
'Till we call this love?
Love?
Love————?

[Song End {I put the song in italics 'cause Edd is singing}]

(Your POV)
You had driven back to the complex shortly after Edd did.

You hear Edd singing. His voice is beautiful.

I wonder who he's singing about....

Well, I should put these groceries in the fridge and the cupboards.

-10 minutes later-

There. Everything is in place. You spot the pocketknife.

*SELF HARM WARNING*
Maybe I can get away with it again...

You roll up your sleeves and unwrap the white bandages to reveal two cuts on each arm.

You pick up the blade and slice open another line on your skin. And another. And another. And another. You keep cutting until your forearms are completely filled with cuts.

You wash away the stinging pain with cold water. You dry off your forearms and wrap the white bandages on them. Then you roll down your sleeves.

*SELF HARM WARNING OVER*

You wash the bloody blade off under the still running water. Then you turn off the faucet.

You were scared. You didn't want them to find out. Especially not Edd or Tom. They would kill you if they found out what you're doing.

Then, you hear a knock at the door.

You clean up all the evidence and you open the door to reveal Tom.

(A/N:Tom's showing up at all these doors ain't he.)

"Hey Y/N. I just wanted to check up on you." He says.

"Tom? I know that tone of voice. What's wrong?" You ask him. You prompt him inside and sit him down on your sofa.

"Well, I've been having this weird feeling for the last few months. It happens whenever I'm around Matt. It makes me feel warm inside, but it also makes it hard to breathe. My chest tightens and I feel at home with Matt." He says, a little embarrassed.

"I think I know what you're feeling." You say.

"What is it?" He asks.

"Love! You have a crush on Matt!" You say.

"WHAT?! But I hate Matt!" He exclaims.

"Based on all the symptoms, it looks like you love him!" You tell him.

"B-b-but what if he doesn't except me?" Tom says worriedly.

"I——————don't know. I haven't gotten that far in my life yet." You answer.

"Wow you're helpful." He retorted.

"Hey!" You say.

"At least I don't fangirl over Edd." He teased.

"Excuse me? Wanna repeat that?" You look at him.

"Nope nope I said nothing!" Tom says quickly.

"Okay then. Have a nice day!" You shove him out the door.

"Bye Y/N!" He says as you shut the door.

Do I really fangirl over Edd?

(Edd's POV)
I lay in bed thinking about Y/N.

I need to tell her soon.

I've seen the way Eduardo looks at her.

She's mine.
