||London - 10:45||
Edd, Matt, Tom, and Tord sat in the booth of the diner exchanging information with each other. It had been too long since they last talked with each other. Tom explained everything to them - how he had never actually died, that he had only been in a coma for a few weeks or so. When he woke up buried, he fought with the ground to scrambled out of his grave. They were all quite impressed that Tom was able to claw from 6ft under, but then again - Tom was practically as strong as Edd. Tord wrapped his arm around Tom's shoulder, Edd wincing slightly. You could say he was still sore from what happened, his trust very very low.
Tord sensed Edd's uncertainty and loosened his grip on Tom. Matt shifted nervously, before piping up. "So! Ah- Tom, Tord, how did you guys uh- forgive each other?" Matt questioned softly, fiddling his thumbs. Tom cleared his throat breaking the silence "Uh - Honestly... Tord didn't leave me alone until I did...." He chuckled faintly, rubbing the back of his head. Matt nodded softly as Edd pursed his lips.
The tension was tough between the four of them, Matt nervously tapping his finger on the table as they waited for their orders. When the waitress swung by, she grinned placing their meals down. "Bon Appetit Gentleman!" She purred, giggling softly. She was a sweet woman who was very fond of Edd and Matt.
After a few moments of digging through their foods, Matt scanned the room nervously before making eye contact with Tom. They locked eyes, giving each other a worried gaze. The tension between Tord and Edd made the double date uncomfortable, and if they were ever going to patch things up, Tord and Edd needed to get along. Clearing his throat, Tom swallowed a bite of his taco. "Uh- do you guys wanna go to the Carnival that's downtown? I mean- It's late and all, but... We're adults, we can do whatever we want. Besides, I'm pretty sure it's still open." Tom chuckled nervously, fidgeting in his spot. Edd thought for a moment before nodding. "Yeah, sure, It sounds fun."
Tord nodded in agreement, Matt placing his hands over his mouth to hide a smile. Tom and Matt could only hope that things would go smoothly.
----
Out of all the ideas Matt and Tom had ever come up with, this one was by far the greatest. Tord and Edd were so calm and relaxed around each other, arms draped over each other's shoulders as they laughed and joked with each other - Like old times.
Matt took happy bites out of his cotton candy grinning ear to ear when he saw the way his soulmate was smiling - He was practically glowing with joy. Tom cracked a grin, his eyes half-lidded. Matt glanced over at Tom, with rosy cheeks of joy. "I must say, Tom, out of all the ideas you've ever come up with - This is by far the greatest one yet!" He cooed, taking another bite of cotton candy. Tom let out an amused chuckle, leaning back on a post. "Yeah, I guess." He sighed, shaking his head gleefully.
A few more hours passed, and they were still at it. Edd had won Matt a human-sized stuffed monkey, the tiny ginger practically squealing like a little girl when he saw the prize Edd won for him. Matt began to shower Edd is kisses, groans, and gags of disgust leaving Tom and Tord as they clutched their stomachs to add a dramatic effect. Edd finally was able to calm down his little ginger, peppering his face with kisses.
When the night was coming to an end, the four of them decided to end their moment by riding the bumper cars. At first, the moment seemed dull and robotic, until Tord hoped into Tom's car and began to step his foot on the pedal racing after Edd. Matt grinned jumping onto Edd's car giggling.
"Ready to get schooled pineapple boy?" Edd scoffed, wiggling his eyebrows playfully. "The only one who's getting schooled it you, ya cola addict!" Tord cried, grinning madly as he stepped on the brakes. The four adult men were giggling like childish idiots, ramming into each other while screaming random sentences of nonsense. Crashing into the walls, they all found themselves been flung into the air and onto the floor. Bursting into laughter, they all laid on the floor gazing up at the sky.
"That was the most fun I've ever had in a really long time," Tord admitted, his face flushing a bright red. Tom let out a faint chuckle, faking a smile. "Where the fuck were the workers - Like what the hell? How did they let us do that?" He scoffed, looking up into the sky. Another rumble of laughter erupted from the crew before they hoisted themselves off of the dirt ground. Saying their goodbyes, Tom and Tord promised to keep in touch.
As Tord and Tom began to walk home, Tord grabbed Tom's wrist, his face flushing. "Tom, can I- Can I take you somewhere? Before we go back to your place?" He mumbled, looking down shyly. Tom cocked his eyebrow, before nodding. "Yeah... Sure, I guess. I mean, it's not like it's 11:45 or anything, yeah it's cool." The eyeless man deadpanned, longing his warm bed. Tord huffed rolling his eyes. "I promise I'll make it quick Jehovah..." he mumbled under his breath before he was pulling Tom away from the sidewalk.
The whole entire time, Tom was whining and complaining while Tord was taking them to their final destination. "God, Tord, how far is this?" Tom groaned, rubbing the front of his forehead. Tord let out a hiss of irritation stopping 3/4 of the way to their location. "Close your eyes Tom-" Tord began, before raising his eyebrow in amusement in the way Tom all but willing shut his eyes. Letting out a raspy breath, Tord carried him to cliff - The same place he confessed. "Open your eyes" He whispered softly, Tom grunting before hesitantly opening his eyes.
He was breathless for a moment, seeing all the stars that twinkled up in the night sky. Tord stared at Tom caught in the Blue man's appearance - The stars were reflecting off his eyeless sockets, creating a beautiful image. Tom had stars in his eyes.
Tom turned away slowly, looking at Tord for a good moment. Cupping the Norweigan's cheek, Tom leaned forward for a sweet kiss. Their lips touched for what seemed like the first time, an energy pulsing through their body. It seemed like their lips molded perfectly proving that they were made for each other. The kiss had turned from sweet and simple to a plea for the other to not let go.
They pulled away gasping for breath, only being connected by a string of drool. Tom licked his lips to wipe away access saliva, before looking at Tord who was lost in his gaze. Drawing out a soft breath, Tom looked at Tord with a glimmer of hope.
Maybe this will work out.
