In Our Nightmares | TordTom

Chapter 13

Tom's POV (Short)

After we woke up from that dream. I really hoped he understood me. We were there. We were with him. We hugged him. I just want him to wake up.. I was still in the hospital room with Tord. My hand was still in his, holding it weakly. I squeezed it softly and kept his hand in mine

It was a warmer now. But mostly just because I've hand his hand in mine the whole time I slept. I sighed laying my head on the side of the bed, I gently rubbed Tord's hand. Let's just hope he wakes up ok..

Tord's POV (Short)

I hugged myself looking down. They're gone.. They faded away... Is this supposed to be some sort of foreshadowing? But I would fade away instead? Maybe I already did fade away... They think I'm dead right? They don't know I'm in the hospital right?

But... Why did I see them in the hospital that one time..? Was that even real? Maybe it is.. I've seen what I look like after the whole incident... But why were they there then..? Mayb- I was pulled from my train of thought s when I felt a newfound warmth on my hand. It felt... Nice. I looked at my hand

It felt as if someone was holding it.. I liked the warmth I got. I gently closed my hand as if trying to keep the warmth there

Tom's POV

"I'm sorry but Mr. Lawson hasn't shown any signs of being awake. We can't do anything else about his condition, it's to severe. We did all we could" The doctor, by the name of Damien, said

"But you can't pull the plug yet! He's alive I know it! And he'll wake up.." I said "Please.." I begged holding Tord's hand tightly

Damien sighed "Mr. Rosewood, I can only extend the time for so long, and that is about two week without any signs of proof that he is partly conscious. Mr. Lawson has been here for a few months already and we got zero signs" Damien said

"And if I can prove to you that he is still alive?" I ask, I glance at Tord and my hands as I felt something move, or thought I did. I brushed it off as my nerves

"Then I would be able to extend the time to a few months for sure" Damien said

"I'll do what I can to prove it to you Doctor" I said "I won't let him die on me"

Damien sight and smiled softly at me "I'll do what I can go help you kid" He said

I smiled gratefully "Thank y-" I cut myself off as I felt Tord's hand hold mine back, very weakly tho. I looked over as he did

Damien looked at our hands as I did and smiled "We have a sign Mr,. Rosewood"

Tord's POV

I smiled and held my hand to my chest. It was such a comforting warmth. It made me feel safe.. But,, who is holding my hand..? Who would want to hold my hand? I got up keeping my hand close to me. I looked at my hand and pulled it from my chest, I slowly opened it to see if the warmth would stay

And it did. I smiled to myself. But just how long will it stay? I looked back up and around the void. I felt safe. Is that weird? Maybe.. But it was still dark. And I couldn't see anything. I looked over as a scene appeared. It was night and it was raining. The guys were walking through the rain

It seemed as they were in town near the park. It was also when we were younger. I remember this time. I didn't go home that night when Edd had asked to be home at a certain time. I felt so unmotivated and alone. I thought everyone hated me and thought I was a demon. Just like back then

I didn't want to go back home because of the fear of being yelled at or being called a demon again. I wasn't a demon. I have a heart. And I care for my friends! But no one understands me. They don't take their time to know me. They just judge a book by it's cover

The scene changed to me, where I sat in the park on a bench. I had my hood pulled over my head and I was hugging myself as I was getting cold from sitting in the rain for so long. But I didn't want to go home

I coughed and the tears continued to flow from my eyes as I sat in the rain. I was shivering slightly. It was cold. But I couldn't bring myself to get up and go home

What if they actually hate me and are just faking?

That thought echoes in my head. I didn't have the answer to that question. But my mind was sure they are just faking. My heart was trying to convince my mind but it wasn't working. I wish things wouldn't be so complicated

The scene changed to the others

"Alright guys, let's split up and look for Tord. If you guys find him call or message the other two and we'll go home" Edd said "Got that?" Edd asked

Matt nodded "Got it" He said

Tom huffed "Do we really have to go look for the Commie?" He said annoyed

Edd glared at Tom "Yes we have to Tom. He's our friend and he'll get sick in this weather" Edd said

"We'll get sick in this weather" Tom resorted back with an annoyed huff

Edd sighed "Tom don't start" Edd said "Just go we'll be back home once we find him" Edd said and began walking into the direction they were heading into

Matt ran across the street, a car almost hitting the man for not looking both ways before fucking running across the road like a mad man. Tom groaned turning around and began walking the opposite direction of where Edd went

We were following Tom as he walked. He had his hood over his head, his hair messily sticking out from the hood. He looked cute, well besides the frown on his face. Tom was grumbling things to himself

"Stupid Commie.. If I get sick it's his fault... The damn Commie not coming home at the time Edd asked.. Stupid Tord.." Tom kept grumbling insults and random things to himself

After a while Tom was at the park entrance walking in as he was just staring at the floor below his feet as he walked. Glancing up from time to time to see where he was going
