[LANGUAGE AND SELF HARM MENTION!]
(This chapter mostly has Edd x Matt in it)
Edd's pov
I continue to drive, waiting for the blush to fade back to my normal skin color. We finally arrive at the mall, and I search for a parking spot. When I finally found a parking spot, I yelled "we're here!", which caused Tom and Tord to wake up.
Matt and I laughed at them. I watched Matt as he had that goofy, but sweet smile on his face. Damn it! My blush came back! I quickly look away, and try to return back to my normal color.
We got out of the car and I turned to Tord
"You look like you had a nice nap." I tell him, smiling
"Hah yeah." He replies, giving me a small chuckle
"So wher-"
"Come on Edd, lets go shopping!" Matt interrupts, as he grabs my hand and drags me into the mall.
"Welp now I'm going this way!" I yell, as I get dragged
Tom's pov
Edd's voice fades out as he gets farther away. When the two of them left, I stared at the commie in the red hoodie. I looked away and walked towards the entrance of the mall. He followed behind.
"So ho-"
"Don't talk to me." I interrupt harshly
"Oh come on Thomas, What do you want me to do, get on my knees and beg?!" He says desperately
I turn around to face him and point my finger at his chest.
"Do you really expect me to forgive you?! You tried to kill me, you blew up our house, you tried to dominate the world! Shall I go on?!" I started to yell
"Fine be that way." Tord grunted
I just sighed and continued to walk. As I entered the mall, I had a weird feeling of guilt and something else, but I couldn't figure out this other feeling. I could hear tiny murmurs behind from Tord, but I just ignored it.
Matt's pov
As Edd and I explore the Mall, we stop by this super duper cute store!
"Oh my gosh! Edd, we have to get our friend a welcome back gift! Even though I have no memory of him." I tell Edd
Edd points a finger gun at me and says "yes!" We both run into the store and look for clothes for Tord. After we got our surprise outfit for Tord, we went to the Café. It was decorated so beautifully, but not as beautiful as me.
I order Edd and I, two blueberry tarts and sit down at the table that Edd had saved for us. I watch him bite into his muffin with his cat face. My eyes sparkle, my mouth became an o shape, and I blush. "That was so adorable Edd!" I accidentally say, I quickly cover my mouth. He looks up quickly with wide eyes and crumbs on his face. I panicked and said
"I-I mean as a friend, not in a weird way is all!" I give off a fake laugh
We sat there in silence, staring at each other, with blush on our faces. Edd finally breaks the silence
"T-thanks Matt." He said "I think your adorable to" He then whispered ever so quietly, then quickly put on his hood and pulled his hoodie strings to hide his face.
I gasp from realization, does he... does he love me?
"Edd do you-"
"Yeah" he muffled through his hood, while nodding.
I jump up from my seat, and hug him!
"Yay Little Edd loves me!" I yell with excitement in my eyes.
Tord's pov
The only reason I'm not trying to fight Tom right now, is because I feel bad for him. The other two were dumb enough to not realize that he's still depressed. When I grabbed his arm, he reacted like he was in pain. The only reason on why he reacted like that, would be that he harms himself.
I just trailed behind Tom, like a shadow. We were about to pass by a café, and I thought of an idea.
"Hey, why don't I buy you something from there?" I asked, pointing at the restaurant. He sighed, then I grabbed his hand and took him into the café.
When we entered the Café, I heard Tom say
"Tord, are you seeing what I'm seeing?"
oOoooOoooOooOo I love cliffhangers, don't you? Don't worry, Chapter 5 won't take long to write, because ima be inspired to write the next chapter or something like that.
