Tom wasn't stupid. He knew what he felt and he admitted it to himself. Yes, he was jealous. Jealous that he wasn't the one to hold you like that. That night when he opened the door to see you two so...close. It felt as if his heart suddenly had a heavy burden to it. Of course, he doesn't show this, but yet, kind of hints at it. You noticed he was in a bad mood, but that's about it.
~Back at the House...~
"(Y/N)." You hear Tord open the door to your bedroom.
"Tord?! What the heck? You can't go barging into people's rooms! What if I was changing? Sheesh!" You said to him. Tord rolled his eyes at you but closed the door and sat on your bed while you were on your desk, doing homework.
"New hentai. It's been taking over at Manga stores. You need to shop with me." He said to you. His tone was so serious it was as if he will shoot you if you don't go shopping with him.
"Eh?! You're already done with the hentai I gave you?" You asked, he nodded.
You huffed a little, "Why me though?" Tord let out an exasperated sigh. "It's because the others don't wanna. You're my last hope, Please!" He pleaded, his eyes looking so desperate. He sounded like a military leader just a minute ago and now he's on the floor looking like a puppy begging for a home.
You ran your fingers through his spiky hair and sighed, "Ah...what am I gonna do with you?" You technically asked, "Fine, fine. I'll go with you. But we're using your money." You said to him.
You could literally imagine him with dog ears and a wagging tail right now.
He hugged you so tight it nearly suffocated you. "TUSEN TAKK!!" He cried. "Yeah, yeah okay. Please let me breath." You asked. His scent smelled so...hypnotizing. Though you only realized it when he let you go.
"We're going to the one in the city. It sells the best hentai there is!" He said to you. You nodded and pushed him out of your room to change into something casual.
When you were done, Tord didn't waste a single minute into pulling you into the red car with him. "So...why the city though? Didn't the town already have some manga stores there?" You asked.
"Like I told you! The one in the city sells the best ones! It's like they have an infinite amount of those." He replies to you, excitement welling up in his voice.
You smiled at his attitude. His appearance gave off the bad-boy vibe but his personality's the complete opposite. This is what you liked about him. It's just that he was so unpredictable.
Moments later you parked in a local parking area and made your way to the Manga Store he's been talking about. Soon, you were now awkwardly staying close to Tord, basically sticking beside him the whole time. There were these middle-aged men looking at you weirdly, eyeing you top to bottom, bottom to top, and Tord was so focused on finding the right hentai. (WHEN U REALIZE THAT HENTAI IS COMPLETELY DIFF. BUT IMMA USE THE TERM HENTAI SINCE WE'VE COME THIS FAR XD)
You tugged the hood of his hoodie, "Tord, are you done yet?!" You asked, annoyed. You didn't mean it that way, but the men staring at you just caused it. You were wearing a (F/C) hoodie and denim shorts that stop at the start of your thighs, what was so revealing that made then want to stare?
"Nope." He replied, his eyes still focused on the mangas.
You heaved a sigh as you wanted to temporarily go outside, which you did, hoping that the men won't follow you onto the lamppost near the store.
---
And too bad they did...or at least...one of them.
You felt an arm snake around your waist and you wasted no time uppercutting the unknown man's face. Your heart quickened. Adrenaline started rushing through your blood vessels.
The man fell straight to the ground. "Ah! I'm so sorry! It was by reflex and---" You start to apologize but realize it was one of the men from the store. The store windows were out in the open and everyone---including Tord---saw the whole scene.
You chuckled nervously.
Everyone stared at you, wide-eyed.
Was that such a big deal? All you did was uppercut the guy, when was uppercutting not normal? Or maybe it was because you were a girl? Or maybe they haven't heard of Girl Power before?
...
It wasn't long before the man got up again though.
