Tord's POV

Silence...

Was all that was around us...

It wasn't the best silence either

It was the uncomfortable one

But neither one of us knew what to say

Knew what to do

So we sat in the silence

Until one of us dared to brake it

And that one was me

"... Can we talk about something..?" I ask "I don't like this silence... It's uncomfortable..." I said

Tom chuckled "Honestly I was starting to think the same thing" Tom said

I smiled "Is there anything you want to talk about?" I ask

Tom thought for a few seconds before answering "I have absolutely no clue" Tom said

I chuckled and hugged my legs once again (It sure seems like you like your legs more instead of Tom... Are you sure that it's Tom the cause and not your legs-? Pft- I'm so stupid-)

I let a small sigh escape my lips, that catching Tom's attention

"What's up?" Tom asks

I look at him "Why?" I ask

"Why what?" Tom asks

"Why are you being so nice to me?" I ask

"What? Do you want me to be mean to you or what?" Tom asks

"No, no" I said "It's just... Strange..." I said looking back at the ground "... I'm just not used to this y'know..?" I said

"I guess that makes sense" Tom said with a light chuckle

I smiled lightly, as for a blush which snuck up and made it's way onto my face

"I would like to help" Tom said

I look back at him confused "With what..?" I ask

"To find who is the cause" Tom said

I know what he's talking about now. He wants to help me find out who's the cause of the disease I have. But since I already know... We won't get far...

"... Tom..." I said quietly

"Hm?" Tom hummed looking at me

I sighed "I already... Know who..." I said

Tom was silent for a few seconds before speaking "... Then why lie..?" Tom asks

"... Because... I'm scared..." I said avoiding the need to look at him

"Of?" Tom asks

I stayed silent and hugged my legs tighter

"Are you ok? Did I say something wrong?" Tom asks

"... No..." I mumbled

Tom just looked at me confused

".. Tom, I know who's the cause... But I'm scared to tell them..." I said

I felt Tom place his hand on my head? Alright then- He then started to pet my head? Ok what's happening-? I lift my head off of my legs loosening my grip on them as well. Looking towards him but barely moving my head

"Tom?" I ask confused "Wha... What are you doing..?" I questioned (Honestly concerned fo dah child- I'm sorry-)

He ignored my question and continued to pet me? Is that how you'd put it? I don't know anymore. But what happened next made me turn red. Quite literally
