ew.
people.
they were everywhere, standing in every corner of the room. talking and drinking like typical teenagers. making out, their saliva dripping down tempo pace. the stupid, unwanted chain of people grinding against each other like no one was watching.
tom felt his stomach go sick, a never ending void type feeling. his cheeks were a flushed red as he stood in his rightful corner of the gigantic house. no, not house, more like mansion. the respectfully classic red cup trembled in his shaking, pale hand as he began to get more and more uncomfortable against the heated air.
he should've stayed home and just pretended he was sick instead of let edd talk him into this party. the sick vindicate seemed to work on the green brit every time, always believing every statement that was uttered from tom's lips. dumb, dumb, dumb. it would've been so much better just to stay home.
from the corner of his "eye" he could see tord. the guy he's had a crush on for the longest, most aching time. tord was obviously flirting with a group of girls that giggled and unknowingly blushed at everything that was said to them. he was the type of guy all the girls just were dying to date. they would flaunt over the tiny things he had blurt aimlessly at them, compliments that weren't even directed at them. it was annoying.
tom felt anger boil in his blood as he saw a girl with golden blonde hair and caked makeup put her hand on tord's arm. tord was clearly high as he chuckled and let his voice slur like he he took drugs regularly. tom felt jealous and he had no clue why. he felt the tears spring into his eyes as he saw tord take the girl by the hand and led her without reluctance into a tiny room in the back.
tom's face hot and embarrassingly red from the events he had witnessed, he dropped his cup onto the floor and stomped on it like a toddler would if going through a tantrum. he stormed past edd even though the cola doting teen gripped onto tom's wrist, trying with all his strength to stop him and question him what the issue was.
"tom, come back!" edd called after him.
the blue male's feet dreaded over every step upstairs but in a quick pace; he wanted to get away from all the noisy commotion that seemed to be pounding at his ears. the music blasted a little too loud for his tastes, basically pleading for tom's ears to just bleed from how deafening it was. it seemed to progressively get louder as he tried to hurry up the stairs.
the carpet screamed the scent of alcohol and dried vomit from parties over the years, it made tom feel like puking himself. his temper, his attitude, was so short that he could feel himself yell with painful hurting filling his lungs like poison. his body ached. the tears fell.
why was he even crying over someone he's never even talked to? someone he just passed in the halls every single day? someone he envied and looked up to? someone who probably never even knew he existed?
someone he loved...
that truth hurt him the most; he loved someone he could never have. a person who would never be able to be held in his arms or comfort. he had crushed over tord since kindergarten for god's sake! he had fallen for him such a long time ago that he never realized it and it made him feel the urge just to shrivel up and die right there.
his eyes averting from their place on the green hellish carpet, he looked frantically for a safe room to be able to express his emotions physically. they finally landed on a cream door that was clearly the bathroom with the visible bile that was splattered upon it. he felt his stomach twist as he rushed in, stumbling like a drunk monkey with every helpless stride that was placed upon the floor.
his body falling onto the floor of the bathroom, the smell of wasted away sex filled his nostrils sickly. let's face it, it smelled gross in every room of this place. he shut the door slowly with his tired hands, then propped himself against the door which was now locked. he felt the stream of clear tears fall down his cheeks as he sat there with every thought in his head screaming at him like a bad nightmare.
