The Storm Is Raging (Tomtord fanfiction)

♐Chapter Five♐

○ No one's POV ○
   Tom whispered those sweet words in a soft tone a short amount of time before Tord had fallen into the sweet world of sleep and the sometimes horrifying area of dreams.

Those words..

I love you

Those words have many meanings.

I want to spend the rest of my life with you

You're really cool

You're nice

They can also go in two directions..

Horribly

Or

Amazingly

Tom had no idea if Tord had heard him or not. He also had no idea if Tord had been talking about him when he was describing the person he had fallen in love with. Tom felt that Tord was talking of someone else, that person just having most of the same characteristics as himself. Tord stirred and woke up, looking up at Tom with a gentle smile, he then remembered what Tom had said. He smiled wider and whispered.

"I love you too"

Tom looked at him in shock, obviously surprised at the new found knowledge. He smiled and hugged Tord closely, tearing up.

Tord hugged him back, smiling widely, he had never been this happy before, and mind you, this same person was the one who, a few days prior, wouldn't leave his room, cried all the time, cut himself, and starved himself. Let alone didn't sleep barely at all.

Tom nuzzles his face into Tord's chest and yawns, causing Tord to yawn in response.  Tom giggled and held Tord closely, falling asleep with Tord in his arms.

Tord was also falling asleep, but he was afraid to. He's always been too afraid to fall asleep, the voices in his head are most active at that time. They cause him to have horrible nightmares and cry in his sleep.

Tord eventually fell asleep though, being cradled in Tom's arms like he had always dreamt of. Being able to hug and kiss him, he would be able to do that now.

But that doesn't mean the voices are gone.

That doesn't mean that at all.
