Tom woke up to the sun shining in his eyes from the blinds in his windows. He sat up not really remembering when he had fallen asleep. He was starving,still tired,and very much dead of all feeling inside. He opened his bedroom door and went to the kitchen.

Edd looked up from the counter he was sitting at drinking his cola,to see his friend that had been closed up in his room for days. "Tom." was all the brunette could find to say.

"Hey." was all that replied the blue hooded boy.

"Uh...how...are you holding up?" Edd asks. Tom shrugs then responds with a "Fine, I guess." "Oh" said Edd looking back down to his cola. 'This is awkward' He thought.

Matt then walks in scratching his stomach and yawning. Then he notices Tom. "Oh Tim you're back" "Back?" Said Tom, clearly confused. "I kind of told him you went on a trip." whispered Edd to Tom. "What? Why?" Replied Tom still clearly confused. "Well, some guys came looking for you yesterday. They were armed so I didn't know if you got in trouble while you where drunk or something. So I told them you weren't here cause you were on a trip." Said Edd.

Tom thought for a couple minutes. "Some guys? Was it two guys,being specific?" Asked Tom. "Uhhh, yeah" replied Edd. "Where are they? Did they give you a phone number or address?! Or anything?!" Questioned Tom in a loud tone, his expression changing from one with no emotion too one of worry mixed with hope. "Um yeah they did. They gave me this card, here" Edd handed the card to Tom. 

Just as Tom thought, it was the same two guys who had broken Tom out of jail that one time when him and Tord got in trouble. If he remembered correctly their names where Paul and Patryck. The card had a picture of the two,heavingly armed. There was also an address and phone number. Tom rapidly went to his room and called the number.
.
.
.
One ring
.
.
.
Two rings
.
.
.
On the third ring Tom was about to give up his hope once again until he heard a click and someone coughing.

"Hello?! Who is this?! How did you get this number?!" answered Paul. Tom guessed it was him because of the coughing. Paul was the one who smoked not Patryck. "Paul? It's Tom. I don't know if you remember me I was Tord's boyfriend"Said Tom.

Boyfriend. The word sounded horrible coming out of Tom's mouth, he thought. Suddenly it sounded like someone had taken the phone from Paul forcefully. "TOM?! I'm so glad you're okay! It's Patryck, we went looking for you yesterday but your friend said you were away." "Yeah um,I was just...in my room" replied Tom looking at his left arm where the new scar had made its home. "Well, we need you to come over here. ASAP. Do you have that card we gave to your friend?" "Uh yeah. Is that address yours?"

"Yes, it is. We need you to get here right away." Now Paul was talking. "Um okay? But what's so important?" Asked Tom who was not really feeling like leaving the house. "We shouldn't explain over the phone, someone can be listening. Just make your way here and we'll explain. Got that?" Asked Paul. "Yes sir." Replied Tom, slightly confused to why they needed him.

Tom hanged up and went back to the kitchen. "What did they want?" Asked Edd.

Tom thought for a bit not sure if to tell Edd the truth or not, until he realised he's wasting time and just replied with "Its classified."And with that said he opened the door and left.

~~~

As Tom walked to the house he had more questions than what he started with. We're they going to arrest him for murder? But he didn't really murder Tord, cause Tord killed himself. Why would they need him? It's been 12 years since they spoke. As more questions made their way into Tom's head he found himself on the doorstep of Paul and Patryck's home. What he didn't realise is that this was the same house were Tord had lived.

Tom knocks, then hears shuffling and then the door slightly cracks open. "Who's there?" Asked Patryck.

Why do they need so much security? It's like they have a bunch of secrets their just not telling me. As Tom got lost in though he realised the door was closing slowly and then he said
"Wait! Its Tom!" 

In one swift move, the door had opened completely and he was yanked into the house and then the door was closed. Tom looked around and he found himself right in the living room of Tord's old house.

"Did anyone follow you?" Asked Patryck,who was looking out the window to see if there was anyone there.

'Again with the security questions' thought Tom.

"Uh I don't think so." He replied. "Alright then. It doesn't seem like anyone followed you." He stayed still looking out the window for a few more minutes before he spoke again. "Come on there's something upstairs I need to show you."

Tom followed Patryck upstairs and then they stopped at a specific door with stickers of stars and moons, then there was a sign that seemed hand made that said 'Do not enter without permission, unless your Kittyboy'. and a little drawn cat face next to it. 


'Tord's room' thought Tom, he hadn't been in here for so long. Yet it felt like yesterday he was here  cuddling with his boyfriend.

Patryck knocked on the door and he heard Paul say from the other side a 'come in'. Tom followed Patryck into the room in which the only lighting was the one coming from the window. The window where Tord and him would talk to each other for hours.

Tom walked in and saw something he would have not expected. His heart sank in his chest as the figure came into view. Someone was sitting by the window and suddenly they turned their head. Tom wanted to sink to his knees and die but his body was numb he couldnt move. The person said
.
.
.
"Kittyboy" Only above a whisper.
"Tord" Tom had replied.

Emotion hit him like a brick. He felt sad,confused,afraid but most importantly Happy. The happiest he's been in years. He realised then, that's what separated this from a dream to reality. It all felt to real. The emotion and feeling all to real. This wasnt a dream.
