Ambivalent -~-TordEdd Fanfic [OLD]

Chapter 17

~+Edd's P.O.V+~

"Matt, have you seen Tord anywhere?" I asked, yawning slightly. Normally, I left late-night parties early, since I wasn't too much of a night owl. Personally, I preferred mornings.

"Tord? That guy who shot Tom?" Matt asked, a quizzical look on his face.

"Yeah. He's actually not that bad, not to mention he's also really ho-" I bit my tongue, a bit surprised by my own words. Matt looked at me, seemingly confused.

"Right... Anyways, I haven't seen him too much. He was flirting with some girls earlier. Although, I'm pretty sure I saw him going up to the second floor.."

"Ugh. I hope he didn't get drunk. There's nothing worse than having to deal with a drunk friend.." I muttered, "Thanks anyways, Matt."

"No problem!" Matt smiled, enjoying the praise. I sighed and started heading over to the stairs, which was quite a challenge. A lot more people had arrived since I had gotten here with Tord, so now, you couldn't even walk a foot without bumping into someone.

After a while of pushing people over to get to the stairs, I finally reached them. They seemed rather... unsafe. But hey, this was Tom we were talking about, and he didn't seem like he wanted to bother with putting on a railing.
I had only gone up about halfway up the stairs before a huge mass of kids started running over to the stairs.  I panicked, frozen in place as they started rushing up the stairs.

"Yo, Edd get out of the way! There's a fight an' we wanna see!" A kid yelled as he ran past me, grabbing my hand, "And I'll get you a good spot!"

I was being pretty much dragged up the stairs, and once we got to the top, I was pretty sure I had at least five bruises on my knees. I pried my hand out of the kid's hand. Personally, I liked it quite a lot better when I could control where my feet were taking me. Instead of heading back downstairs, I decided to actually take a few quick glances at the fight, which was actually a first for me. Normally, I'd preferred to completely stay away from fights and avoid them at all costs, but fights at parties generally were pretty awesome.

I shoved my way through the crowd, which was growing by the minute. Once I finally did reach the front, though, my stomach dropped.

Tord.

Tom.

Both of them were the people who had been fighting... No wonder everyone was excited. Except, it didn't seem like Tord would be winning any time soon. He was leaning against a pillar, a highly noticeable injury on his shoulder, a few above his eyes, and another one dangerously close to his neck.

"Stop!" I yelled, at the top of my lungs, throwing myself in between Tom and Tord. 

Edd, what are you doing?! Stop being an idiot. He means everything- Er- No-! He means nothing! There is nothing special about him, I internally scolded myself.

"Edd, get out of the way, you're breaking a gang rule," Tom growled.

"Alright. I'll get out of your way," I replied, turning around, picking up Tord, and walking off. I was out of his way, technically.

"No! Edd! I didn't mean it like that, damn it!" Tom yelled, "Get back here!"

I ignored Tom, deciding to pick up my pace and hurry up. Tord was losing a load of blood, and I was beginning to get really... concerned... For some reason. I'd never felt like this before, until today. I was originally going to ask Tord about it when we were walking to the nightclub, but I didn't really express it too well, and I was pretty sure I just made things awkward. 

When I finally reached my car, I laid Tord down in the back and then covered him up with a blanket. This was for two reasons:

1. I didn't want him to get cold.

2. I didn't want any cops noticing.

It seemed like a win-win to me, and with that, I headed back to our dorm. I had absolutely no medical experience, but I'll do anything for Tord.

Because I love him.

Heyo-- Sorry this chapter is kinda short. I wanted to get it out since I figured that I'll try to post on Sundays, since they're pretty convenient for me, and I also have the rest of the week to post additional chapters if I wanted.

Anyways, I was planning on re-writing Chapter 1. It wouldn't affect the story, But I just don't really like how it was written, and I feel like I've improved since. I also really need a new cover but I'm procrastinating on drawing a new one--

And one last thing:
Whilst I do know how I want the book to end, I have one question for all of you guys.

Do you want a happy ending or a sad ending? I guess you can comment or something, and once I do reach the end of the book, I'll count them up and fully decide on the ending. I also just want to know what ending will be appealing to you all. We've all read a fair share of stories/fanfics with sad endings, and we do kind of need happy endings every now and then. 

But then again, an angsty ending is kind of satisfying sometimes

It probably sounds weird and unprofessional, but hey, I am weird and unprofessional after all  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
