No Fear

Chapter Eleven

Tom Pov:

I wake up to a loud knock at my door, I mutter a, "What the fuck?" I check the time on the bedside table clock to see it's already 6:30 am. I only get another thirty more minutes to sleep in, I'm soooo grateful.

The knocking becomes louder and I yell a, "Hold your goddamn horses!" I get up with more muttered curses and I walk to the door. I open the door to reveal Tord, he has a way too cheery smile on his face.

"Hello Tom! I was wondering if you'd like to get breakfast together?" Tord asks and I raise a eyebrow.

"Do you see my suit on me right now?" I ask and Tord looks down at my pajamas.

"Um.. no?"

"Then wait till I'm goddamn dressed,"

I slam the door and he calls from outside my room, "I thought we were going to be nice!"

"This is my way of being nice Commie! Take it or leave it!" I yell to him as I start to get dressed. "Just wait for me to get dressed then I'll go with you, but have some patience because I'm pretty fucking slow when I first get up."

"Okay," Tord simply says.

Once I get my suit on and comb my hair back, I walk back to the door and open it. Tord falls backwards on to me, I believe he was leaning against the door. He looks up at me with a smile since I'm holding him up, but I get disgusted by it so I drop him on to the floor and walk past him and down the hallway.

"Wait for me!" Tord calls out as he gets up, closes my door, and runs after me. "We're going together! Remember??"

"I know," I say as he finally catches up to me. "I just wanted to see how fast you can run."

"What? Why-"

"Last one to the cafeteria is rotten egg!" I then begin to sprint down the hall.

"Hey! What the hell!" Tord runs after me. "Get back here!"

I know, I know. Racing is kind of childish, but we both need to get the exercise, and I want to beat his ass at a different competition.

Tords too close for comfort, so when I see a soldier carrying a pile of papers, I grab the papers from the soldier and throw them behind me. The soldier yells out to me, "What the fuck man?!" I ignore him as I keep running, that should slow Tord down a bit.

Tord only gets out of sight for a few seconds before he immediately gets back on my tail again. How'd he get passed that so easily?! I'm almost to the cafeteria, so this is bad,

I see another opportunity, I snatch a bag of marbles out of a soldiers hands. I have no idea why he has marbles, but these will help greatly. That soldier is of course angered too, but I don't really care.

I'm close to the cafeteria when I throw the marbles on to the floor, Tord trips which makes me laugh. I'm so gonna win now!

I win the game by running into the cafeteria first, hell yeah. I turn around to see how Tords doing, but I immediately get hit and knock down.

I open my eyes to see Tord on top of me, he has his hands at the sides of my head so he didn't hit the ground.

I look up at him with a "Get the fuck off me or I'll snap your neck" kind of look, which he seems to understand since he immediately gets off me.

We stand up and dust ourselves off, he must've tripped on the marbles again and fell on me, simple mistake. If it was anything else I would kill him.. well I'm already planning to do that.
