His Brave Husband

Hello, old friends

~Tord~

When I woke that morning, Tom was still asleep, so I decided to let him sleep.  I walked into the kitchen and started my morning ritual. Coffee, and some toast. As I waited, leaning against the counter in just my boxers, there was a knock at the door. 

"Hold on!" i shouted as I stumbled to the bedroom for just a pair of jeans that I struggled to get on.

As I walked back there was another knock "Hold on! I'm coming!"

I opened the door "what do you-" I stopped dead.

There right in front of me was a man I hadn't seen in years. A man I used to look up to for his kindness and ability to make anyone smile. A man who used to trust me. A man who once fought against me for some time. There in front of me, was Edd. 

"Edd-" he stopped me.

"Where's Tom? I know you have him! Give him back!" he was shouting. Very angry I suppose. 

"Edd let me-" he stopped me again. I am reach my wits end.

"Just give him back you Communist!" he yelled. Oh that's it.

I grabbed him and yanked him inside slamming the door, and throwing him against it. I held him there by his neck as he was suddenly defenseless. 

"Edd. Let me speak. Tom is perfectly fine, in fact, he is asleep. So if you would care to not shout so loud."

I whispered dangerously. His eyes went wide and he nodded. 

"And look at this" I held up my left hand where my wedding band was in it's place. 

He examined it. "I'm happy that you got a wife, but I want my friend back" wow. He's an idiot. 

I pushed him harder against the door "You idiot. Tom and I are married."

I felt his breath hitch "You're joking" he breathed out. 

"I'm not. We are married. I love him. I'm not giving him back, have a good day." I let him go and opened the door again, but was stopped by a hand on my shoulder. 

I felt him rest his head on my back "babe? Who are you kicking out now?" I smiled. 

"It's no one baby. Go get your coffee." but of course, he peaked over my shoulder. 

"Edd?" Edd's eyes widened. 

"Tom.. your eyes." he mumbled. 

"Yeah yeah. Coffee?" Edd shook his head. 

"No.. I should be off" His lip quivered. 

Tom smiled. "I'd come hug you but I'm only in my pants" they both laughed.

Though he laughed, he couldn't hide the sadness in his eyes. I felt only slightly bad. I didn't want him ruining something else that I worked hard to achieve. Tom waved whilst hiding a yawn behind my shoulder. 

"Well, nice to see you two so happy now" he smiled. Tom nodded, I kept silent.

I waved as he walked off and closed the door, as i turned Tom kissed me. I was surprised but of course I kissed back. He wrapped his arms around my neck and pressed himself against me. I groaned softly and pulled away.

"Tom.. no" I breathed. He whined. 

"Why?" he whined. 

I chuckled "Because. Maybe later tonight." I nipped at his bottom lip and he giggled. 

"Alright alright. Coffee" he sauntered off. 

I followed and we started our day like any day. Coffee, toast, and cuddles on the couch. We didn't realize that Edd would be back.  Around every corner. In every shop.  Everywhere, yet no where we would expect him to be.
