(My picture!... Again...)


Tom's POV:

After I ate, I checked the time. It was 12:13.
We didn't know, what to do. Tord didn't eat anything though. He said he wasn't hungry...

I just sat on the couch and randomly flipped through the channels. But nothing interesting.

I sighed and looked at Tord. He was drawing something.
"Hey Tord."
"Yeah?"
"What are you drawing?"

Silence.
"Tord?"
Nothing.
"Tord!"
He jumped.

"W-what?" He said.
"Are you okay?"
"Umm, yeah. I just spaced out. Sorry!"
"Oh, okay. So, what are you drawing?"

He looked away and blushed. Why? What was he drawing?

"N-nothing! Nothing at all."
He chuckled nervously.
I raised my eyebrow.
"Okay...?"

Silence filled up the apartment.
Time passed slower than I've expected.
Guess I'll take a quick nap. I turned the tv off and closed my 'eyes'.


Tord's POV:

There and...done! I looked at the drawing I've made.
I was kinda proud. When I saw the drawing, I blushed a bit.

I drew Tom smiling with a blue flower crown on his head.
He looked cute. I looked at Tom to find him asleep on the couch. I chuckled and checked the time.

Oh! It was already 13:26!
I was still really excited. 'I'm going back home with my friends!' I thought.

My stomach hurt again. My smile faded and I got up. I walked into the bathroom and threw up. 'Dang, there goes breakfast...' I sighed. I tried not to think about it.

I got up and checked if I got everything. I opened my suitcase and pulled out my checklist.

Clothes: ✓
Stretch book: ✓
Pencils and other stuff: ✓
Knife: ✓
Phone: ✓
Headphones: ✓

'Yeah, I think I've got everything.' I thought, forgetting what just happened in the bathroom.
Then I saw something on Tom's bed.


Tom's POV:

I slowly woke up and yawned.
I checked the time.
It was 13:31! 'I better check, if I've got everything.' I thought. I got up and wanted to walk to the bedroom, but stopped.

On the table was the drawing that Tord made, but didn't show me, what it was.

I came closer and took it. I looked at it and my 'eyes' widened. I could feel myself blushing.
It was a drawing of me, smiling with a blue flower crown on my head.

Suddenly I heard footsteps. I quickly placed the drawing back and looked at Tord.

"Hey Tom, It's almost time to go. You should check, if you've got everything." He said with a cute smile.
"Okay." I answered and made my way to the bedroom.

I checked my stuff and headed back to the living room. I took my phone and checked the time. 13:47.

"Okay, I'm ready to go!" I said.
"Me too!" Tord answered.
I smiled at him and we walked out of the apartment.

"You know, Tord. I have a strange feeling that I forgot something."
"I'm sure you've got everything." He reasured me.
"If you say so. Let's go."
He smiled and we locked the apartment.

I knocked on Edd's door.
"Hey Tom! Hey Tord! Ready to go?"
Edd said and we nodded.
"Good, let's go then. Matt's already at the car." He said and locked his own apartment.

We made our way to the car to see Matt waving at us.
"Hello Tim and Todd!"
"It's Tom and Tord and hello to you too, Matt." I answered and we got into the car.

After like five minutes Edd started the car, I had that weird feeling again.
I checked my suitcase and froze.
Tomee bear...

How could I forgot my Tomee bear!? I was shaking and sweating a bit.
Edd and Matt had headphones so they couldn't hear me sobbing quietly.

Suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned to see Tord looking at me with a worried look.

"Are you alright, Tom?"
"Y-yeah, I just...forgot my Tomee bear..." I said looking down.
His worried look was suddenly gone and he pulled out his suitcase. He started searching in it.

'I'm so childish. I am upset only for stuffed bear...' I thought, hiding my face.
I sobbed again. Suddenly I felt something warm press againts my face.

I looked up and saw...Tomee bear!
I smiled and hugged him.
I looked at Tord smiling at me.
"Thanks, Tord."
"No problem!"

I realized how childish I acted and blushed.
"You don't have to be ashamed about that. I know he's very important to you. He brings a lot of memories, so it's fine, don't worry." He said in a calm tone.

I smiled at him.
"Thank you, you are an understanding person, Tord."
He smiled back at me.
"It's okay, my friend."
