(I really don't know what this is??? Sorry in advance)
Tord's POV

I walked to my quarters after a long day of leading. It was late at night by now, and Pat was forcing me to sleep. I wasn't even tired yet, but he wouldn't stop nagging me. He nagged me worse than my own lover did.

As I made it to my chambers I unlocked the door and went inside. I closed and locked the door as quietly as possible, as to not disturb my love, but I was already caught. I knew it when a throat cleared behind me.

"T-tom! I, uh, didn't think you'd be up now, min kjære-" (Translation: 'my dear')

He only impatiently tapped his foot, a scowl on his face. His menacing, mechanical, glare from his glowing visor pierced through me, like that harpoon nearly did on that one day, many years ago.

I gulped as small beads of sweat formed on my brow. He was pretty upset tonight. I nervously laughed to attempt to break the tension.

"Well, well, well, Red Leader, did you have fun?" His voice sounded as if it were laced with venom.

"N-no not really- I just did paperwork all day" I stuttered out.

I won't lie. I was afraid of what would come next. When Thomas scolds he really scolds. His foot tapping stopped. I held my breath. He walked towards me and felt shivers trail up my spine. I was in for it. I was really in for it.

"Mhm, paperwork, because you'd rather do paperwork than be here with me!!"

"Thomas, you know that's not the case! I would love to spend more time with you if I could-"

He huffed and turned away from me, "Oh whatever, Tord! You never spend time with me anymore. You work, come home, shower, then sleep! You don't even hardly talk to me! Let alone touch me!"

I felt the guilt shank me in the heart. I had been really busy lately. Way too busy. I stared at Tom, who still had his back to me.

I walked closer and wrapped my arms around his waist. He jumped a bit, but he didn't pull away. He only crossed his arms.

I buried my face into the crook of his neck and held him close to me. He was silent for a short while, before speaking up again.

"Don't think one little hug is going to fix this, Tord"

My words came out muffled, but clear enough to be understood, "I don't expect it too. But, it is a start"

I felt him tense up, then relax with a sigh.

"Tommy, you know I love you, and you know I want to be with you. And I'm sorry I've been too busy for you. I promise from now on, that I'm going to try even harder to spend more time with you"

"You promise?"

"Yes Tommy, I promise"

I smiled into his neck and placed a tender kiss on it. He tried to hide the slight giggle it caused, but I still noticed. Tom had always been ticklish around the neck.

I began place more kisses around the side of his neck. He laughed, and wriggled around, whilst pleading for me to stop. He, eventually, escaped my grasp and ran.

The chase was on.

Before I knew it me and Tom were running through the place, as if we were children playing a game of tag. He would do things like leap over the couch and go under tables to avoid capture.

I still caught him anyway.

He was now pinned on the couch, with no escape, while breathing heavily. I beamed with the pride of victory. I smiled brightly.

"I win, ingen øyne" (Translation: no eyes)

He scowled again, but this one had no effect. I simply released his arms and layed on top of him, with my head resting on his chest. Before I knew it I fell asleep to the sound of his heartbeat.
