Tord's POV

It's been a few days and the arm is perfectly fine. I'm used to it now, so I can go see Edd, Matt and Tom. Just, let's hope it goes alright. It's still a bit weird to see the robot arm tho. But that won't bother me after a while

Well, all I need to do is wait for the others to be at their place. And tonight, I'll go to visit. In person. I huffed and ran my hand through my hair. This is so fucking stressful. Before, I couldn't do anything. I couldn't run from them. But now I can. But I'm not

I'm going to them

Any other person would probably just run away. But I don't run from my battles. I don't run from fights. That's one reason why I'm such a good leader. I don't give up. But, this, this is a lot. Part of me wants to give up, but I don't. I won't be a coward. I need to face my troubles. I need to face them. Not run

I can't run from them. Why would I need to run? They are nice people. A unique group of friends. But what am I? Someone who doesn't belong in their group. I stand out. And I don't fit with them. First, they are all British, and I'm Norwegian. Of course that's probably nothing, but it's just one thing

They all get along fine, but I fight with them sometimes. I made Tom who he is now. Without trying. I wanted to stay friends. But it didn't turn out that way now did it? I only wish to at least stay friends with them. I'd be fine with never hanging out, or talking in person. At least I want to talk over text or call

Just, please... Let me stay friends with them..

-Time skip-

I grabbed my hoodie pulling it on. I grabbed a pair of black gloves and pulled them over my hands. I clenched my hand as I put the glove on my robot hand. It looked normal. I pulled on my combat boots, I liked wearing them. Don't judge me

I tied them before standing up. I brushed my hair and put it into a low ponytail. I left my room, walking down the halls of the base, I went outside and hopped into my car. I made sure I had everything I needed before leaving through the gates

I nodded to Evan then the gates started closing. I drove through the woods and onto the road. Just a while until I get back in town. Everything will be ok Tord. Everything will be ok

-Time skip-

I was now in town. I drove around looking for the right apartment complex. It was getting dark since that was the time I decided to leave. I found the store and continued driving until I saw the next apartment complex

That's what Tom told me. I hope he didn't lie to me. He seemed like he was being honest. And plus, I don't think they know I'm awake yet. Well, they're probably getting confused when they went to bed.. I parked near the apartment complex and turned off my car pulling out the keys

I put them into my pocket and gripped the wheel. I put my forehead against the wheel and took a deep breath. There was no reason to be nervous. Should there be? I'm nervous as fuck. I sat up and rubbed my face. I sighed and unattached my seatbelt

I unlocked my door and opened it before climbing out. I shut it then locked my car. I walked to the doors and went through them going inside. I walked to the elevator and walked inside. Right, I didn't know what floor they were on. I huffed, well, just gotta make a guess then

I looked at the numbers and clicked floor three. The doors closed and I looked up at the numbers as it rose, waiting for the door to open again. The elevator stopped and the doors opened. I'll be honest, I never really liked elevators. Getting stuck in them wouldn't be fun

I walked out of the elevator and looked at the door numbers. Wrong floor. I sighed and got back in. I pushed the fourth-floor button. And when the doors opened, I walked out, the doors shut right after. Someone probably called the elevator. I huffed and looked at the room numbers. They ended at 100

Jeez, how many rooms are there? I huffed and went up the stairs this time, I finally got to the floor and walked through the door. I let out a soft sigh of relief when I saw it was finally the correct floor. I walked down the hall and went to the one-room that had the name 'Tom' on it

I don't even know if he'll answer. He's most likely asleep, knowing that he would want to see me. He would be asleep. I ran my hand through my hair and then knocked on the door with my real hand. I waited a bit, but got no answer. I sighed and grabbed the little loop on the door with my robotic hand

I lifted it up and knocked it onto the door. It'll probably be louder. Hopefully, it is

Tom's POV

I was still wondering where Tord was. Did he go invisible and we just can't see him or did he wake up? I looked around as a loud sound rang throughout the void. Edd and Matt were here as well. The sound sounded like a knock "What was that?" Matt asked

"I think someone may be knocking at my door" I said, confused, it was louder when I heard it, but not that loud to Edd and Matt "But who tho? And at this time?"

Edd shrugged "You never know Tom" He said

I sighed and stood up "Well then, I'll go check" I said then, I woke up. Another knock rang out and I stood up "I'm coming! I'm coming!" I said and left my room as the knocking stopped, they must've heard me, or just left. I went over to the door and unlocked the lock and pulled off the door chain

I opened the door and froze, seeing who was behind it
