Tom's POV

"Oh, well um, you wanna know something about me?" Reality asked

"Wha- What? Why?" I ask

Reality smiled "I feel like you should know and plus with what you just told me. I bet it was hard" Reality said

"No, no! No need for that!" I said frantically

Reality laughed "It's alright Tom, I trust you with this anyways. Like you trust me" Reality said looking at me

I sighed "Alright fine.. Go ahead" I said

"Well, have you ever wondered why I have my hair like this? Like having my bangs covering half of my face?" Reality asked

"Not really, I just thought of it as a style you like" I said honestly "Y'know people like different hairstyles, take Tord for an example" I laughed

"Funny thing, Tord wasn't the one who chose his hairstyle. He said his hair did that on his own" Reality said

"Yea! Like Steve! He stays up by himself!" I said

"Who- Who's Steve?" Reality asked clearly confused

"Steve is what I call my hair-" I laughed

"Oh I see.. Well anyways back to what I was saying. I have a reason to cover my face" Reality said

"And that is?" I asked

"This" Reality said before moving her hair out of her face and behind her ear

My eyes widen at what I saw. She has a huge scar going across her eye, her eye was a silver-ish color, like Tord's. You could see the smallest tint of light blue in it, it made sense because her other eye is blue. The scar was really visible, but it was completely healed

"Oh my- What happened?" I asked "Did you get attacked while in the Army?" I ask

Reality shook her head "No, this was made way before the Army" Reality said "It was a little accident Tord had" Reality laughed nervously looking down

"What!? That bastard did that to you!?" I almost yelled

"Well yes... But he didn't mean to!" Reality quickly said "He was just angry with them and I happened to be the one he took it out on.. And was the only one around that time" Reality said

"Them?" I asked

"Tord's bullies" Reality said "Tord was bullied throughout his school years back home. That's one of the reasons why he moved to London" Reality said "They bullied him because of his red eyes" Reality said

"Oh.. So that's why he reacted like that when I was younger.." I said

"Reacted how?" Reality asked

"Well I used to be bullied through middle school for my black eyes. Tord was always the one to defend me if he were around. He used to get in a lot of fights then.." I explained

"Well, that's Tord. He just wants to protect everyone he loves. He just can't lose anyone else" Reality said "He already lost a lot of people at a very young age, so I'd expect him not to lose anyone he cares or loves" Reality explained "He's like a brother to me, we protect eachother" Reality said

"And after he realized what he'd done to me, he didn't go to school for a week. And when he did he started avoiding me. I thought it was because he hated me. But I found out it wasn't" Reality said "One day I caught him and asked for an explanation to why he was avoiding me. I told him, if he hated me and didn't want to be friends anymore. I would be fine with it" Reality said

"But he said he didn't which made me happy, because I didn't want to lose my best friend" Reality smiled at the memory "He told me why he was avoiding me and it was because he was scared. He was scared of hurting me again, so he didn't want to be near me just so I was safe. I had told him I didn't care about that" Reality said "He's my best friend and nothing could change that. It took a while to convince him to hang out with me. But we eventually went back to normal" Reality said

"He still got bullied, and we couldn't do anything about that so when one day I went to school and he didn't show up. I just brushed it off as he was maybe sick" Reality said "After three days I had decided it was enough waiting and went to his house, to find out no one was there" Reality said "He just left like that" Reality laughed sadly

"Only in 8th grade had he contacted me" Reality said "He apologized so much for what he did and didn't do years ago" Reality said

"8th grade... Yea I remember that.. I remember seeing Tord on his phone a lot. Tord never really smiled much. But with us he did and whenever I saw him on his phone he would smile just as much" I said "It seemed that you made him really happy" I said "Tord was a really moody teen then" I laughed

Reality laughed as well "I can totally see that happening" She said

I rolled my eyes even tho she couldn't see it "A lot of things happened back then" I said

"Yea, and it seems very interesting too" Reality said

"Mhm" I hummed "I guess it is" I said

Tord's POV

After finishing most of the paperwork, I had did a walk around the base. Checking if everything was alright and nothing being out of order or place. Like doing a check up of sorts, but this is more like a patrol

I usually do check ups on the departments. Like the lab, infirmary/medbay, gun ranges, training rooms. That'd be something I would usually have to go to. There are fights and conflicts that happened in the training rooms and I have to deal with it if others can't handle it themselves

Tho I had already finished that. I began working on the headset straight afterwards. Technically I haven't had much breaks today. Only for when I went to eat or anything like that. Mostly just taking a break for my needs

But either way, I had already done that. So now I sat in my office working on the paperwork. I've gotta finish these before working on the headset. It's a complete pain in the ass honestly
