Tom has been living in England all his life and it has never been terribly dangerous. Will that change now that he meets his new roommate Tord?
------------------
Has he killed anyone every since he's come to this dreary country? No, not yet, but h...
Sunlight peeks through the blinds and groan in displeasure.
I don't want to get up, but if I don't I be fired....bluh. Fine. I'll get up, I'll get up! Only if Ringo gives me kisses.
Looking to the side, a dark grey cat on a pillow sleeps next to me. I smile at Ringo and gently pet them. They do not wake up and so I shall not.
I close my eye again.
"Tom, get your cute butt down here! You'll be late for work if you don't go right now!"
Opening my one eye, I look at Ringo. They woke up.
Dang it.
As Ringo stretches I sit up with a frown. I get out of bed. Ringo prances to the door. I open it for them and close it quietly.
"Tom-"
"I'm up, I'm up! Only because Ringo is! You dare to interrupt THE Ringo's sleep, have you not shame? If it was only me, fine! But Ringo? Ringo? You fool! You absolute-"
"Tom, I will make spaghetti for dinner if you just SHUT UP right now!"
"Okay."
---------------------------------
So, that was how my morning starts. My friends Edd and Matt sitting at the table talking about the politics of Ancient Greece.
"Matt, for the last time. Spartans don't do family dynamics. They communally take care of the children."
"But, how would they be so attached to their...city? It's not like they care about all of Greece."
"Remember! They train them young. Didn't you take lessons in college? Why did you go?", Edd said exacerbated.
Tom stiffen at the word 'college' and held his spoon a little tighter. Matt noticed and nudged Edd's foot and alerted him to Tom's state of being. Edd frowned and faked a cough.
"Let's not talk about that and focus on what today holds!"
With a clink of the spoon being placed on the plate, Tom stands up.
"Guys, I'll be out. Tomorrow, I only have to work in the morning so I'll be free all evening. I'll watch the house, okay?"
"Sure, I won't be able to and Matt's going to his grandmother's for the weekend."
